I have picked up where I left off in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 again after almost a year of not touching it. I have just started chapter 6 and am curious where the story will take me. This means I also have all the DLC to play through. And yes, I will also play a level or 5 in a certain plumber game. Have a great weekend everyone!

Most of the weekend will be taken up by a different geeky activity: Together with a buddy I'm going to paint the new Star Wars Shatterpoint miniatures and hopefully play the game as well.
On the gaming front I'll be continuing my playthrough of Assassin's Creed Mirage on the Series X and Eastward on the Switch for when my partner requires the tv. Looking forward to it all. Have a great weekend everyone!

Yesterday I've picked up the physical version of Pikmin 1+2 and the new Avatar Last Airbender game for Switch. So, my weekend will undoubtedly be filled with some time on both, but I will also be continuing me playthrough of The Teal Mask. Earlier this week I managed to finish Jedi Survivor and I've decided to completely drop Starfield, it just didn't click with me, so I finally have full focus for my lovely old Switch again.

Happy gaming everyone!

This weekend I'll be continuing my playthrough of Raincode: Master Detective on Switch and Jedi: Survivor on the Series X while I'm waiting for the official release of Starfield in the coming week.

So far, Raincode has not grabbed my attention as much as I hoped it would. Any tips on when it gets good?

Anyway, happy gaming everyone!

After two weeks of vacation in France I have now returned home, which means, time to play games again! I was incredibly close to finishing Pikmin 4, so that's exactly what I'll be spending my time on this weekend. If I manage to finish it I'll probably play some Planet Coaster on PS5.

Happy gaming everyone!

I will only have time to play a very specific, but very tiny game this weekend. Maybe you've heard of it or seen them in your garden? It's called Pikmin 4. All jokes aside, I am incredibly excited to boot it up, especially after the great reviews. Beyond stoked. Happy (tiny) gaming everyone!

This weekend I will once again dive further into Final Fantasy XVI on PS5 if I have the time. I'll be at Dokomi in Germany so probably won't have much time to turn on my PS5 at home in the Netherlands at all. Instead it's more likely I'll turn on my Switch and start Master Detective: Rain Code instead. Either way it will be a great weekend. Happy gaming!

This weekend, besides working on my deadlines, I'll spend some time in the lovely new Final Fantasy XVI on PS5. I'm 4 hours in and I love it so much already! It's a gorgeous game with a gripping story.
I will probably have a little break with Zelda for the coming weeks. I'm at the final mission, I believe, but I just can't put myself to confront Ganondorf.

I'm going for the North American one this time. I own the European one but I actually think I prefer the NA version. I love how it shows more of the world in the backdrop and the dystopian 'support your government' poster is bringing in that nice one person against the system theme. It does a much better job of portraying Jade as a stealthy, but powerful rebel.

Currently not playing anything on Switch except for my daily dose of Pokemon Unite. I guess I'm just waiting till Advance Wars releases next week.

Elsewhere I'm at chapter 17 of Final Fantasy VII Remake, so very close to the end. And I might purchase the Pixel Remaster, since FF7 got me in a real FF tizzy ngl

Personally, I really think the DLC for FE Three Houses belongs on this list. It added a fourth House to the game, new characters and fleshed out story. Made for even better replay value to an already very replayable game

Re: Surprise! Fire Emblem Engage's 'Wave 3' Expansion Pass DLC Is Releasing Soon

@Thenewguy I have the exact same thing, while I enjoyed my playthrough of Engage, I enjoyed FE Three Houses much, much more. I can't really put my finger on what it is that is so different about Engage, but it might have to do with the characters not really feeling alive within the world/story to me. In Three Houses all the characters really came from parts of their territories and had extensive background info and connections to other characters through them. That might just be it actually.

I think they're very similar in portraying Samus' coolness, but I went for the Japanese one this time because of the location that is much better featured in the artwork. I love the look of this dark and mysterious corridor filled with enemies stretching out behind Samus.

Since I'm holding off buying Metroid Prime Remastered until the physical release, I will mostly be playing Hogwarts Legacy on PS5, but because me and my partner like to do a playthrough on seperate accounts (he really wanted to play as a Slytherin, typical), it gives me the perfect opportunity to play the Divine Paralogues of Hector, Soren and Camilla on Fire Emblem Engage. And since Soren is one of my favorite characters to come out of the series, I'm also kind of glad I will be pulled away from Hogwarts Legacy.

I will be spending the weekend getting into the latter half of Fire Emblem Engage. I'm absolutely loving the game, although I think I'd prefer Three Houses' more traditional medieval style story over this one.

Elsewhere I've gotten back into Elden Ring after finally defeat Morgott last night. Eager to jump into this game some more before Hogwart's Legacy releases next week. Happy gaming everyone!
