Still playing Borderlands 3 as my main PS game. Nothing to add there.

Finished Hades! Killed the 3rd region’s boss, where I wast stuck, soon after the last weekly post and reached the final boss. Died first time, didn’t even reach the boss in next try, but beat the game in try after that.

You need to beat the game multiple times to get the credits roll, and there is post-game content to get final / true ending. There is not much new in the gameplay though, except turning on different difficulty modifiers to make the game more difficult. So, after beating the game a few times, I had enough, and just watched the rest of the narrative online.

As far as I am concerned, I have finished the game.

Played a bit of Oceanhorn - Monster of Uncharted Seas, but for some reason couldn’t get into it. It’s a zelda-like, and I don’t really have any complaints, just not in the mood, maybe. Though one thing I missed from Zelda was the music when you solve some puzzle. There is no such thing in the game. I would be in a locked room, and then push the block in correct place, and while it would show me the door has opened, I wouldn’t get any music indication that I have achieved something. Never realised I would miss that.

Since I couldn’t get into Oceanhorn, I started ATOM RPG. It’s like Fallout 1/2, isometric view, post-nuclear world but situated in Soviet Union. I didn’t have high expectations from the game, specially since Fallout 2 is one of my all time favourite game, but I fell in love almost from the start. My only complaint is loading screens take a bit of time on Switch, but they are only annoying when you are traveling and get a random encounter, no issues in towns or dungeons once they are loaded. Have already spent quite a few hours, and am fully enjoying it.

What about all of you? What have you been playing?

    My Switch hasn’t seen any playtime in the past couple weeks 'cause I’ve been watching the Olympics, but I have one more chapter to go in Paper Mario: TTYD remake that I’ll probably go back to once the Olympics are over.

    I did dust off my 3DS one afternoon and finally continue some progress in Fire Emblem Echoes. I’m almost through that game as well, and then to complete my playthroughs of the 3DS Fire Emblem games I have both versions of Fire Emblem Fates waiting on the docket. I’ve generally heard Conquest is better (for gameplay at least) between the two but both are something of “black sheep” in the series. Since the eShop shut down I won’t be able to play Revelations, but from what I understand that’s a good thing, lol.

      Only thing I know about these Olympics is some Turkish guy came out of nowhere and won the shooting thingy.

      I have only ever started 2 Fire Emblem games. Three Houses and the GBA one. I liked the Three Houses but all that monastery and relationship building stuff, just got me off it. Plan to get back to it some day.

      GBA one I liked much more than Three Houses, but for some reason didn’t finish it either. Would like to go back to that one day too.
