I beat Xenoblade 3 last weekend, but I'm still working on Hero Quests and maxing out classes. I also picked up all the Fire Emblem Awakening DLC the other day so I might play a few maps later today. On PS4, I'm continuing my Persona 5 Royal playthrough after taking a break for a while.
Primarily Xenoblade 3, I'm in the last stretch so I'll be focusing on that today, though I did get a bit further in Trails of Cold Steel III the other day so I might be playing a bit of that as well. I also plan to pick up the DLC for Fire Emblem Awakening, so here's hoping I can add funds through my Switch Account and it'll let me buy those.
Some more Xenoblade 3 for me, haven't completed it yet but I'm on the last chapter. Just finishing up some last-minute quests before finishing it up. I've also been trying to get through Trails of Cold Steel III some more, but it's been a struggle. The pacing's similar to the 1st game, and that's not ideal. On 3DS, I've been going through FE Fates (Birthright Route) and steadily making my way to the end. I need to pick up the DLC for both Fates and Awakening, and that's my plan after beating Fates.
Sweet! Grew up on Avatar and it's easily one of my favorite TV shows so definitely excited to see what this could be, hopefully it's real, and if it is, a decent game in it's own right.
Gah...I've been looking forward to this game for so long, but I'm going to have to put a hold on buying it right now, due to Xenoblade 3's release. The Gunvolt games are all really good and I want to focus on it so I'll have to pick this game up sometime after playing through Xenoblade 3
It’s been a busy week for me so I haven’t had the time to be playing as much, but with the time available I’ve been playing even more Aegis Rim (I’m in the endgame now so we’ll so how that goes), a bit of Super Smash Bros Ultimate with friends, and finishing up my NG+ of Xenoblade Chronicles 1 in preparation for 3. On PlayStation 4, a bit of Tales of Berseria and Persona 5 Royal (They say take your time, and holy cow, they weren’t kidding).
On Switch, some Xenoblade Chronicles 1, on my new-game+, just trying to do some sidequests to get the extra character trees. On PS4, some Tales of Berseria and Scarlet Nexus, while trying to ignore the urge to play Persona 5 Royal instead.
On Switch, TMNT, and then a little more 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim. The story's currently locked behind battles so I've been grinding those out recently. On PS4, more Persona 5 Royal, doing another playthrough on Scarlet Nexus, and I recently picked up Tales of Berseria so I'm trying it out.
Finally picked up 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, and loving every second of it. The combat sections are fun, but it really shines in the story. It juggles 13 protagonists incredibly well and it's tons of fun to figure out the story from the chapters played. Also, the music in the game is absolutely amazing.
These sound really good! If only Xenoblade 3 wasn't coming out so close it, I'd pick right on launch. I've only beaten the mainline games (though I am working on the first Luminous Striker), but I'm definitely picking this up when I can.
"You thought it was Fire Emblem, but it was ME! DIOFIELD CHRONICLE!" All joking aside, it looks alright, but probably not anything stellar. I might pick it up one day if it goes on sale, but not on release date.
On Switch, playing a little more Xenoblade Chronicles 2, doing some blade quests and the like. I also purchased Final Fantasy VII so going through that as well. On PS4, I'm still running through Persona 5 Royal, just reached the third palace and really enjoying my playthrough.
Been wanting to grab this game, but was planning on waiting for it to be on sale. Looks really interesting though, seems like it'd be good for handheld play, though I might be wrong.
All of it, just all of it. The class changing seems like it will incredibly fun to mess around with, the Ouroboros Interlink stuff looks freaking epic, and that battle music with the flute sounds amazing. So freaking excited for this game, and I'm incredibly happy they pushed the release date up to July.
Still working on NEO: The World Ends With You, but I'm also planning on continuing either my playthrough of Fire Emblem Three Houses (Black Eagles Route) or Fates (Birthright Route), depending on what I have time for.
Got the Chrono Cross remaster so I'll be running through that. Never got very far in the original so I'm excited to give it another try. For PS4 I'm playing through Persona 5 Royal at the moment, and slowly making my way through Trails of Cold Steel III.
Finally picked up NEO: The World Ends With You as a birthday present to myself, so I've been going through that at the moment. I've also been replaying Tales of Xillia 2 and finishing up Tales of Zestiria so we'll see how that goes.
I read Martial Artist instead of Material Artist and was severely disappointed when I went back to read it again. I guess Nintendo needs to protect Metroid Prime 4 even more then I thought.
As other people have mentioned, hoo boy that's a spoiler. Ah well, I guess out of context it's fine. Now the problem is convincing myself that I don't need that.
The Metaverse, huh? Maybe, hopefully, unlikely, this is a secret way to tell us about a Persona 5 port? In a way we'll never see it coming? A man can dream right?
Surprise, surprise, it's Legends Arceus. Though I've been also playing through Trails of Cold Steel III (so far it's been great, just seems to be suffering from the same pacing problems as the first one.), so not fully Pokemon yet.
So basically what I'm reading is that Copen has been nerfed? Probably one of the best parts of playing as Copen in my opinion was zipping around the whole stage with the dash. Well, I'll probably pick it up at some point, but not soon.
These games are pretty great, so I'll be downloading the demo, if only to see how they run, but there's no way I'm shelling out that amount of money for cloud versions.
I finally beat Trails of Cold Steel 2 on PS4, so I'm moving on to the third one. Switch-wise, I've been playing Super Smash Bros against visiting family members and was planning on finally beating The Alliance Alive HD.
Another reminder that I need to play through this game. I adored the first one, and I'm enjoying the second (er, Bravely Second) but for whatever reason this one didn't click. Probably because there was no Ringabel.
@Snatcher Same! I've just gotten into the Z saga and was wanting to try out the game. Was waiting for a sale (which is happening right now) but this'll be a good way to try it out.
Switch: My New Game+ run of Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Got back to Indol recently, so I'm postponing the main story for unique monsters I didn't defeat the last time. PS4: Trails of Cold Steel 2. Need to grab the last trial chests before I begin the end chapter.
