Hello Everyone!
(Post got too long, if you want to skip, game names are in bold, you can just read those)
June is ending, and July is starting. For the US folks, that means 4th of July is coming! Another day to just play games, without worrying about work or school!
I am still playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kindgom, about 75 hours in and very near the end, will probably finish it soon. Would have to wait and see, if I lose interest in rest of the stuff after finishing the main story, or want to keep exploring and doing other stuff. Details next, move to next paragraph, if you want to skip. I have done the last regional quest, I originally wanted to go back to exploring after that, but after getting all Tears and completing all regional quest, I wanted to focus on story and see how it ends, so left everything and went to the Castle. Haven't reached the final boss yet, but I think I am near the end now.
In non-Nintendo games, played a bit of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge with my kid. We both had lots of fun with it, and going to continue playing it when we both have time. Only complaint I have is that 2nd player doesn't earn any trophies, but that isn't a big issue for me.
Also played a little of Monster Hunter: World, and I must say, Capcom, improve your multiplayer setup! It's so confusing. Only the host can watch cut-scene, and you can't play a mission whose cut-scene you haven't watched. So, if 4 players are playing, they all have to start the story mission separately, then during the mission when you come across the monster first time, there's a cut scene, after you have watched cut scene, all of you must abandon the quest and then one person can host the mission again and everyone else can join it. (Or all person except one can leave their mission and join that person's mission mid-way). Took us more than an hour to figure all that out. Not counting that, the game is really fun, but still not sure if we are going to stick to it.
Other than that, Marvel's Avengers is leaving PS+ Extra on 12 July. I usually don't prioritize games based on when they are leaving, but the game is shutting down in September and I don't want to spend money on it. So, even though I don't want to start another game right now, I am going to give it a try. The campaign is only 12 or so hours, and I have heard it is fun enough. So, plan to start it too. Not sure if I'll play the full campaign, but I want to give it a try.
So, what about all of you? What are you playing?
I'm also at 75 hours in TotK, but not much closer to finishing the main quest than last week 😅
I played a bit of Doom Eternal since I finally got my phisical copy from Limited Run Games. It was very fun, and it feels different to Doom (2016). Still looks amazing on Switch! I'll probably be playing some more during the weekend to take a break from Zelda.
Shredder's Revenge is so much fun. Played all the story and some arcade in co-op and it's always a good one to go back to. The DLC will make me play it again for sure!
Heh, it's same for me this week, haven't progressed much.
Glad to hear about about Doom Eternal, it recently came to PS+ Extra, so would play it there.
As for Shredder's Revenge, yeah, it's a great game, going to follow whatever the devs make next.
I recommend you check out Streets of Rage 4 (also from DotEmu, developers of Shredder's Revenge) if you haven't yet. It's one of the beat 'em ups I keep coming back to, so good!
Thanks for the recommendation!
Streets of Rage 4 is pretty high on my list. I played Street of Rage 2 a lot on Sega Genesis, and love what they have done with Street of Rage 4. I was planning to play it before TMNT, but then they added TMNT to PS+ Extra, so went with that one first.
BTW I didn't know that they are both of same devs. That just makes me more excited to try it. Thanks!
