Reached level 22 in Splatoon Raiders.

I think that some of the people I am helping are bots. Or at least these “help someone” aren’t actually live helps. For instance, when you go to help someone, there is only bot buddy, but they should have their bot buddies too. It’s possible one bot buddy is shared by all players though. Another thing is all their names are Water / Splatoon related, like “Sea Horse”, “Coral” thing like that, but again it could be just Nintendo anonimysing the names.

Anyways, the game is still fun. My kid who spends most of his gaming time playing Fortnite with friends started playing it and loved it so much he overtook my level in just a few days. We only have one Switch 2 or it could’ve been a fun game to play together.


Also playing Red Dead Redemption 2. Reaching end of the Chapter 5. Last week I said I was reaching 50% of story progression, but I checked after that and it was only 44%. I am somewhere around 55% now. I usually don’t keep track of progession like that, but this game is so long, and it hasn’t really caught my interest that much.


I paused Star Ocean: First Departure R and started Final Fantasy XII - The Zodiac Age. FF 12 was the first Final Fantasy I played and I consider it my favourite one. I have only played it once though, and that was the original version, not the Zodiac Age, so when it officially came to west I planned to play it but just getting around to it now.

I love the gambit system, and the fact that there are no random encounters. Not a fan of the fact that reserve party members don’t get any experience, but game is easy enough that I have made two teams of 3. Keep swapping between them and keep them at similar levels. I have been staying up late over the week playing this which has messed up my sleep schedule a bit, so probably will have to reduce that going forward.


What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

    I’m near the end of chapter 10 in Yoshi’s Mysterious Collection of Fanfics, which seems to be the end of post game, but there is room for two more in the menu and I fully expect more. Fool me once, shame on you and so on.


    Played a little more Star Fox, did my first run on Expert Mode. I’m surprised the medal requirements aren’t higher to make up for the fact that there are more enemies. That’s going to make that part very easy, except I do not look forward to keeping a Hyper Laser past Sector 6 for Venom 2.

    I also don’t think I’ll complete the list of multiplayer unlocks. I’ve never had a game with more than two other humans in it and it’s getting boring, since the team with two humans always beats the team with one.


    Made a lot of progress in One Piece: World Seeker. I’m actually impressed that the characters present in the game were carefully curated to only be characters that could reasonably be here. This kind of game will usually come up with any excuse to cram as many familiar faces into the story as possible.

    It’s still not a particularly good game though. And my current setup lets me defeat any boss in a three-hit combo, so there goes the balancing. I recently unlocked Gear Fourth and it actually makes me weaker, lol.


    I finished Katamari Damacy Reroll, leaving only the final achievement locked. Judging by its name, I thought it was the “get every other achievement” achievement, but I was wrong. You have to pick up every item in the world and I will NOT do that. And with this fever dream behind us, it is time…


    …for Jimothy to wake up and continue his Fallout 3 journey. But I think the drugs he took hit a little harder than expected. He rolled up the world in a ball, became a short-spined racoon and now he’s been kidnapped by aliens? Maybe I’ll have this sorted out by next week.


    I recently got a Capture Card and if my tests are successful, I’ll be doing something very stupid soon.

      Heh, I don’t think they will go for 12 in main game. 10 is a nice round number, and they stopped in middle of page just so people don’t expect another page, but clear that and let us know!

      That’s the problem with multiplayer modes, you need enough people that there are always healthy amount of lobbies around, and I am not sure Switch 2 is at that point, specially for a game like this.

      Heh, poor Jimothy.

      Looking forward to that stupid thing you’ll be doing soon.
