Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 12th)

ACNH (I recently decided to redo about 60% of my island)
Child of Light (which I said I was going to do last weekend, but ended up playing Splatoon 2 instead, oops)
Bravely Default II Demo
Might also download A Short Hike this weekend, but if I don't get to it, maybe next weekend.

I've also already played the demo for Summer in Mara this weekend. Wasn't just wowed by it. May get it far in the future with a good discount (or once I've worked through some my backlog. . .whichever happens first).

If I decide to get this, I think I will wait for patches/updates to fix bugs. May wait for a discount too.

I admit that I've never played BOTW, or any other survivalist game either, so most of the comparisons given mean little to nothing to me. This game piqued my interest about trying out the genre though. The reviews that I've been reading about it have given me pause about jumping right in at this time. Maybe down the road.

Other than BOTW, are there other survivalist games that people have enjoyed? I'm open to recommendations.

Re: Review: Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition - A Weak RPG Enlivened By Nostalgia

I never finished the GameCube version. It is a beautiful game (I have the soundtrack and I love it), but I hated the controls in solo mode (and I didn't have any friends who also played the game). If the multi-player mode was less of a mess, this would've been a maybe. This will be a pass for me.

If they came out with the My Life as King games, I'd get those day one.

Re: Team Ketchup Wins Splatoon 2's "Bonus One-Off" Splatfest

I'm bummed that Mayo lost, but overall I thought it was so much fun. This was my first Splatfest for Splatoon 2 (played most of the Splatfests for the first Splatoon). I hope that Splatfests become a regular thing again. It seems like there are a lot of new players now since a lot of people got a Switch since quarantine started.
