Still Playing Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout as my primary game. I think I should be in the later half of the story, not sure though. Pretty much just playing this now, so should be able to finish it soon-ish.

One exception though, with all the Donkey Kong drops, I started Donkey Kong Country 2 (NSO SNES) again. And I don’t know what issue I had last time, but this time I was able to clear the first area pretty easily. Died couple of times in last level, but other than that it was pretty simple. I didn’t find all the secrets though. Only 2 DK tokens, though got most of the KONG letters, not sure about other secrets, but I am sure I missed some.

Stopped playing at first level of the second area / world. The lava one. Only started it on impulse and may play it a bit here or there, but will return to it seriously only after finishing Atelier Ryza. I really enjoyed playing it though, hope difficulty won’t spike too much as the game progresses.

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

Super Robot Wars V. Just hit the first hard split on the story where I could stay with the super edgy Cross Ange plot, alongside Gundam 00 and Fullmetal Panic Or, go along with the Nadesico and the super silly Mightgaine, alongside several UC timeline Gundams. I chose the latter.

I know a friend who loves Super Robot Wars, haven’t gotten around to play it myself though. How are you enjoying it?

If you have any interest in giant robot media, or tokusatsu stuff, or enjoy tactical RPGs with tons and tons of characters, it’s the game for you. I’m really enjoying SRW V, but I’m not sure it’s the best place to start with, given how many of it’s mecha crossovers start at their “late stage” and kinda assume you’re familiar with the source material. I’m pretty familiar with the Gundams but some of the other shows I was a bit lost about, such as Nadesico and Fullmetal Panic. Then again, V is one of the most popular recent games. Every game in the franchise is independent from one another, though, and they all explain all the basics you need to understand the plot. Just pick the one with the robots/shows you think are the coolest.

I have interest in ‘giant robot media’, but the only one I have ever watched is Tengen Toppa Gurren Laggan, don’t know anything about any other one. It is on my list to properly get into it one day.

Super Robot Wars

Did someone type the magic words to summon me? 😆 I’ve commented that I love this series in the past but I don’t think I’ve mentioned how deep I am into it with… 38 games beaten according to my notes.

So yeah, if you want to know more about the series just ask me.

Yeah, I would love to know more about the series. Don’t have any idea about it, so not sure what to ask, so leaving it for you to decide.

BTW I think we have talked about this before, but I couldn’t find it int my saved posts, so maybe not.

To be honest, whilst I will do my daily ACNH routine, I will be consuming all the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle content I can.

So far it’s been amazing. Its like being in an Indiana movie, and still being in control. Plus you get to beat up baddies! There is also SO MUCH content (and I have only traveled to two locations!). Totally engaging.

You can expect Indiana dry/wry humor and all. It is all there.

IMO worth every $. (I’m a PC gamer first, it’s a shame it wont come out on PS5 until next year, not that I have one. It will never come out on Switch, there is no way it could handle it).

DL from Steam was 100GB+

That’s great to hear. I am looking forward to it. Not a big fan of first person view in the game, but Fallout won me over when they went from isometric to first person, so going to give it a proper shot too.

And yeah, it will never come to Switch, but if it’s coming to Series S, it may be able to come to Switch 2, but only time will tell.

I am very patient gamer though, so one year delay (for PS5) doesn’t mean much to me, I am still playing games from 2015 (just finished 2014 with Metro Redux couple of months back)
