Hello everyone!

Another very busy week, didn’t really play much at all. And recently my DualSense (PS5 controller) started drifting and options button stopped working, so sent it for repairs, which means no PS5 games for few days. Which leaves:

  • New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe Still in water level, I paused the game and left it in sleep mode, which one of my kid closed, so I lost all progress since last castle. Had to replay all that. Now at the final castle of Water level.
  • Dragon Quest XI Played some more, killed a boss, and finished all the open available side quests. Now to next main quest.

What about you all? What are all of you playing? Or planning to play next?

    What is the Palico system? Something other than what the Palico do in World?

    Wait, you can switch equipment at the camp? I didn’t even know that! :-O

    I didn’t know how to capture until a bit recently, but yeah, trying to capture all of them now. That 0/x is an interesting thing, will try to go for that too!

    Well, it’s HR Bone Armour, and fully upgraded, so not that bad, but yeah. One big hit can kill me instantly, specially if it also add poison state, by the time I get up, whatever health is left, has already gone down by it.

    What happened to your JoyCon? Maybe try to get it repaired or something? Are they fully updated?

      Oh the Palico system is super fun! You get to have 2 Palico come with you on hunts and you can have up to like 36 hired Palico that can go on separate adventures (they’re called meownster hunters in that mode). You can also have a palico make trades with offscreen villages to get extra resources (this is replaced by the tree box in World). You also have Palico levels for each Palico, and they increase level through either training or going on hunts with you. It’s just an absolutely adorable wrapper to a good minigame system.

      It’s been a while since I’ve played World but I have a distinct memory of being able to change armor at the camps. I could be wrong though, so don’t hate me if this is a false memory lol

      Hr bone armor should be pretty decent but if you can get the LR rathian armor, I think that comes with poison resistance as a perk, you’d have to check to be sure though (plus, HR bone armor is going to give you way more protection than LR rathian armor, but if it’s the poison that’s carting you, it might actually work)

      My switch just doesn’t connect to the joycon anymore. Idk what I did, it might just be normal wear and tear since I got this switch during the initial big rush when they were first on sale. I might just need to wait until the switch 2 or whatever it might be called comes out though. I did buy some off brand joycons, so they might not be fully updated yet, I just found out today. Will have to try upgrading the firmware tomorrow!
