Finished Fire Emblem: Three Houses 's DLC story !
I didn’t like the story much, it wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t up to the main game standard, though from my experience, DLC stories are generally like that. Some of the battles also felt needlessly long, but that could just be me.
This unlocks all DLC characters (4 in total) and their classes (again, 4) in main game, though it requires special seal for certification, haven’t looked up where to get that from yet.
Finsihed Judgment!
Fun game! The story was pretty interesting, and the gameplay elements and story were different enough from Yakuza games to stand on their own two feet.
The map felts small, not sure why that is, possibly cause there were much less side activities, but I could be wrong about that. Another issue could be we haven’t been limited to Kamurocho for whole game since Yakuza 2, IIRC. Not saying this a bad thing, just something I noticed.
My biggest issue with the game is side stories. Pretty much all of them end up with you either following someone, or chasing someone, if not both. Which gets repetitive very quickly. Another issue is that most of the side stories themselves repeat. Many of the side stories have 3 parts. You do a side story, the later you get another side story which is repeat of that one, then later you get another which is a repeat but you get the conclusion.
When nearing the end, after Chapter 10-11, I stopped doing the side stories and just focused on the main story.
Started Cozy Grove. It’s a cozy game, and is often mentioned as something like Animal Crossing, though it feels very different.
You go to island to help ghosts move on, except there are a lot more ghosts than originally expected.
The game works in real time (though you can make it perpetual day in setting), and you can only do certain amount of things in a day. I haven’t checked the time but I don’t think it takes more than 15-30 mins a day. Apparently it takes more than 2 months of daily playing to finish the main story.
Mainly started it cause I won’t have to dedicate much time to it, and can just play it slowly at side.
Playing this on Switch 2, cause there are some performance issues on Switch 1, specially as the game progresses.
Also played a bit of Hyrle Warriors: Age of Calamity, but not much, so nothing to say about this.
What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?
I’m in the last chapter of Sea of Stars. It’s been decent. I like the pixel art, and the combat loops were challenging enough without being a grind. The plot for the first 2/3 of the game was fairly cutesy but bland. I’m basically grabbing the last few unlockable skills and items before going to the final boss, and I doubt I will try the post-finish addon content.
I think next I’m going to try… The Witcher 3. I’ve tried to start this game multiple times on PC, modding it and everything. I like the books, played the first two games, but these days I have no interest in sitting at my desk (where I work) in my off hours - I like laying on the couch playing my Switch Lite.
I played the Witcher 3 on Switch and loved every minute of it, though that was without ever watching how the game looks on other consoles or PC, so your mileage may vary.
I stalled out on Sea of Stars before the last battle. I know I’m strong enough (the game is well designed on that front), but I delayed because I knew the fight would probably be long. Then the summer came. And went. I hope to go back there one day.
