Re: Video: Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door Gets A Five-Minute Overview Trailer

I am very excited to play this game finally! I have only come to own a Gamecube a few years ago and while I managed to track down some expensive boxed copies of the likes of Fire Emblem, I have always thought the price of The Thousand Year Door really was too high. Reading all these genuine positive reactions make me want to play it even more. Can't wait to just be cozied up on the couch with my OLED and this game in handheld mode

This weekend I'll be spending most of my time alternating between preparing and having an Easter brunch with family and gaming; playing FF Rebirth or Unicorn Overlord.
I'll be diving into Chapter 9 of FF VII Rebirth and going to the second region in UO. I'm still very much enjoying both of tbese games and I slowly start to wonder if any game this year will be able to top these. Good times. Happy gaming everyone!

@imadeanaccount Just like others have mentioned, the story is not bad. It's just not something we've never seen before; your typical good vs evil story. But the gorgeous style, strategic depth and charming characters really bring this game home for me. I'm sure reviews would have been way less positive if the story was bad in any way.

This weekend I'll be dividing my time between multiple outstanding games. With friends I'll be continuing the online blast that is Helldivers 2 on PS5.
On Switch I finished the demo for Unicorn Overload and that left me super impressed. Other than that I will continue to play Another Code and Pocket Card Jockey on Switch.
Happy gaming everyone!

I'm nearing the end of the Persona 5 base game, I'm at the point where I can send the calling card for the final palace. But, if all is well, I should be all set to unlock the 3rd semester and havea bit more playtime with P5 Royal. So, that's exactly what I'll be focussing on this weekend.
Elsewhere, Helldivers 2 has got me hooked. So, whenever the squad is online you'll be able to find me there. Happy gaming everyone!

Whenever I'm not studying this weekend, I'll be playing AA: Apollo Justice or Persona 5R on the Switch. Elsewhere, Shadow Tactics have launched on PS Plus Extra and I've been having a lot of fun with the top down tactical game! There are so many creative ideas tucked away in that title. I think it would be a great fit for the Switch actually. Anyways, happy gaming everyone!

Besides helping my best friend move, who just went through an emotional break-up and had to find a new place to live (plus side, we now live in the same city), I'm planning to keep chipping away at Persona 5. It would be great if I could find the 3rd target and get the Palace started before the weekend's up.

Happy gaming everyone!

I settled on Persona 5 Royal becoming my Christmas game this winter break. Kamoshida deserves what's coming for him.

I'm also debating whether or not I'm going to invest my time into acquiring enough BP in the Pokemon Indigo Disk DLC in order to catch all starters. The massive amount of BP required, the ridiculously simple (and extremely repetitive) quests and the insulting low turnout has managed to completely demotivate me. Normally I'm a sucker for completing the 'Dex, but this time might be different. This has left me more bummed than the overall poor performance. Maybe I'm missing a quicker way to acquire BP, but if not, the devs have managed to make this DLC feel like a chore.

I am so happy with the NL community. Over at Push Square some people can no longer enjoy Atlus and the masterpiece that is P5, all over one PS4 to PS5 upgrade decision. But the positivity and honest celebratory comments make me glad to be part of this community.

I can't believe free upgrades have become expected. These cost time, money and great effort. Sony Interactive Studios might be able to afford this, Atlus and Sega need to be more conscious of expenditures.

This weekend I'll be diving into the second DLC of Pokemon S/V. Hopefully collecting the 'mon is fun enough to warrant the purchase.

I have also started a new playthrough of Persona 5 Royal. 2 years ago I tried to get into this game, but after 10 hours I found myself distracted by a freshly released game. So, hopefully this time around it will completely draw me in.

@Geit_de I've been having a lot of fun with this game with my pals, but I do agree with the presence of bugs and the lack of resources in some caves you mentioned. However resource-wise, I think this game is clearly designed to play with multiple people, since emptying a cave with 3 or 4 people often gave us all the resources we needed for the next steps of upgrades.

Am I right to understand you have upgraded one village to level 10? We have started two more villages in the other biomes than grassland and leveling those up resulted in many more unlockable buildings, items, furniture, etc. It provided the game with many more hours to enjoy, until the inevitable update expands it even further.

Re: E3 Has Been Cancelled, Permanently

I can't say I'm surprised after all that happened in recent years, but I am gutted. The anticipation, the hype, the surprises, it all led to some of my most cherished moments in gaming. Thank you E3, I will miss you.

Booting up the Star Ocean remake last weekend has inspired me to (finally) finish Xenoblade Chronicles 3. During the week I have completed all possible sidequests, ascended all heroes, upgraded all base weapons and am currently at Z's doorstep in the game's final region. So I'm looking forward to finishing that this weekend and hopefully have some time left to get back to Star Ocean Second Story R. It deserves my undivided attention. Have a great weekend everyone!
