It’s December! Which means vacations and deadlines. Which mean unreliable schedule to post weekly threads. So, bear with me this month, I’ll try to post them on time, but if I don’t, don’t worry, we should get back to normal weekly posts from January.

And since this post is so late, going to make it a post for this week and the next. Now, games!

Playing Fortnite, my kid regularly plays it, but when I saw the Lego Fortnite trailer I got intrigued, gave it a try and loving it. Also playing Rocket Racing mode. Haven’t gotten a chance to try the third one, Festival I guess it’s called.

All other games are on pause due to lack of free time, except for Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1, the smaller size of Vita makes it much easier to lug around, so getting some hours in the game when I don’t have anything else to do.

That’s all from my end, what about all of you? What have you been playing? Or meaning to play over the holidays?

    Made me look at the calendar, I thought I had been in a coma for a few days!

    … It is Wednesday, right?

    I’m out of town and didn’t think a lot about which game to bring, so I just started a second playthrough of Pokémon Scarlet with only flying type Pokémon. I didn’t even like the first playthrough that much, but I had wanted to do a monotype run of any game one day, and this one was right here, so here I am. It’s ok I guess.

    It’s the weekend, my dudes.

    Baten Kaitos New Game Minus progress is slow. I don’t play it very often right now but when I do, I get a lot done. Some enemies have begun to outspeed me, but I’ve only had a character die to bad defense RNG once so far.

    I’ve spent most of my time with Arkham Origins lately. I’ve 100% the main game and New Game Plus (which is an odd name for hard mode), I’ve beaten the Cold Cold Heart DLC and have just begun the Challenge maps. When I started the game, I completely forgot it takes place during christmas, so it’s an accidentally fitting game.

    I’m deep enough into Shantae on the Game Boy to have more of an opinion on it. The game has two faces: The dungeons, which are a joy to be in and the overworld which is an awful slog. The game has fast travel, but it takes a long time to unlock it. And the constant back and forth makes me impatient enough to just jump into a pit and be reset to the beginning of the area. I probably could have beaten the game by now if I played it more, but I’m playing too many games at once…

    Speaking of too many games, I dug out my save file for Pokemon Infinite Fusion again and finally finished off most of the post game.

    Last weekend I wrapped up Super Mario Bros. Wonder with 100% completion and so I’ve returned to Starfield. Level 21 and counting, currently playing through the Crimson Fleet questline.

    I wish I could fly my ship wherever I wanted…

    Bravery and Greed was on sale for $10 so I took a chance on it. It looked like it would scratch the rogue like itch for me and I have not been disappointed.

    Multiplayer side scrolling rogue like. Four classes. Four different character paths for each picked from three random perks found at shrines. Four gear slots counting the wand with fun unique abilities (boots of flying for example).

    Also playing Mario Wonder with my son. I expect both games will be on rotation all winter and spring.

        I’ve only gotten to the second act so far, but it’s new enough for me to still have interest! I saw on howlongtobeat that it should take around 12 hours, so I hope that me being ready for that will make me last until the end.

          I think it took me awhile to figure out the first act, so I think I spent more than 12 with it

          Really loved the atmosphere of that act though! Probably why I spent so long on it.
