Playing Bandori (EN) more frequently, idk why I'm making an effort to get a decent tier since I'm not a huge fan of PasuPare but I have a lot of free time right now so why not lol. I used to be a fan of PP and apparently almost maxed out their items so it would be a waste not to use them (also I have too many PP cards, I regret wasting my stars on their gacha months ago when I was new and hadn't assessed which band I really liked lol).
Bought Spiritfarer a few days ago and I am hooked, it's so addicting and good. The only thing I hate is that I usually make a mental to-do list while playing so I'm not just wasting time in-game, but whenever I need to exit the game and come back to it later, my to-do list resets and I completely forget what I was supposed to do previously hdfsksk. I like having a proper flow of things, but that's just me.
Occasionally playing ACNH, I think I'm almost done with my island after my 4th revamp but there's this area where I'm just not sure I can pull off what I'm imagining. It's a rather big area and I'm too lazy to get into it just yet, so I just run around appreciating other parts of my island when I play haha.
Bravely Default. I've had it for years (I have Bravely Second too, never opened) and never gotten around to it but I finally decided to dust off my 3DS and give it a go. Fun so far. The Brave/Default mechanic I feel is a bit naff but the game has a job system, a thing that I love but isn't in all that many games.
I've also bought Monster Hunter Rise, created my character aaaaaand stopped playing. I've always absolutely loved Monster Hunter since the original on PS2 BUT I got my partner into the series with Monster Hunter World (not hard to do. She loves fantasy beasts, dragons and dinosaurs). Not a bad thing at all, I loved playing it again with her but she works shifts which can result in us only having like 10 minutes together on some days, not enough for Monster Hunter. I'm basically waiting for us to both have enough free time together so that we can play it together and it's killing me knowing that I could be playing it right now...
i'm trying to keep myself from playing too many games at once so i can actually finish some of them. the games i'm playing rn are:
paper mario 64 (never played this before, but having a great time with it)
legend of zelda: twilight princess (played this a few times over the years but never finished it before)
professor layton and the curious village (also played this before but never finished it. i want to sharpen my brainmeat.)
and there's also ac:nh and breath of the wild, but those are less about trying to finish them and more just to relax.
I started playing this app/game called Covet Fashion. Basically you design looks and they get voted on by other players and you can expand your wardrobe by buying new clothing items with the in-game form of currency. They're all designer items based on real clothing/accessories. It's sounds stupid but it's addicting. My sister recommended it to me because she's been playing for many years. I was up half the night entering creating different looks for challenges. This is definitely not my typical type of game but I'm having fun with it so that's what matters!
Playing Watch_Dogs Legion. Spent the afternoon exploring London and recruiting NPCs - so far I've recruited a paramedic, an Albion officer, a Clan Kelly enforcer, a cop and a construction worker among others. I've even recruited a stage magician. It's so fun I've barely progressed the main plot lmao
I'm still playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons daily (yay 13 months and counting), and I'm also playing through Super Mario 3D All-Stars as well. I've 100%ed Super Mario 64, I've 100%ed Super Mario Sunshine, now I just need to get through Super Mario Galaxy.
I’m finally playing Trails of Cold Steel IV after spending 188 hours on the previous titles. The amount of fan service for series fans is fantastic. Every major character from the earlier games has some relevance in this title. I’m looking forward to seeing how it how ends.
Im also starting Nier: Replicant today! My DualShock 4 broke, so I had to get a replacement as well.
started playing spiritfarer a few days ago and I love it! its such a cute game, I hope they come out with more updates/spirits because I don't want it to end! the art style is very pretty and peaceful and the characters are so sweet. I played it all day yesterday and now met 7 out of the 12 spirits but I'm going to try to slow down now to make it last.
also bought hades this past week. its not the first time I've played a dungeon crawler/combat type game, but its the first time I've bought this type of game for myself, if that makes sense. I like how it has a story to it, and I also love the art style. Its kind of hard ngl but I can see myself getting better the more I play so I'm not giving up yet lol. I also feel like such a ~gamer~ playing it lmao
PS5: Spider-Man Remastered, Demon's Souls Remake, and Control Ultimate Edition. I haven't even started Miles Morales yet lol. I'm also contemplating if I would get Returnal once it gets released (as I'm iffy about it having rogue-lite elements). I will probably wait for reviews to come first before deciding.
Series X: Gears 5, Yakuza Like a Dragon, Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order and Doom Eternal. That's probably all for now. I'm trying to balance stuff out between the two consoles.
I’ve started playing Monster Hunter Stories! I’ve owned the game for a while but I never really got into it. I did technically start it a while ago but I know I didn’t progress very far so I opted to start a new save file.
I’m still (really) early into the game but I’m having fun! The character customization was nice and my character looks so cute. The regular Monster Hunter games have always seemed overwhelming to me (I think I picked one up during a sale years ago but couldn’t get into it) but Stories seems much more up my alley. I love the colours and I’m enjoying the turn based combat even if I’m a little confused about how I’m supposed be to know what attack to choose
Lots and lots of animal crossing is what I’ve been playing lately. I love being able to arrange and shape the island to my liking. My brother and mother both live on the island as well for different reasons. My mother mostly for the house decorations and clothing and my brother for the holidays!
I’ve been an indie Australian visual novel called Necrobarista! It’s about a young woman who runs a café for the recently departed. The character models are basic, but the lighting and camera angles add a lot to the story. I definitely recommend it!
This is definitely not my typical type of game but I'm having fun with it so that's what matters!
