Last weekly thread of March!

  • Still playing Regalia: Of Men and Monarchs. In chapter 5 now, I should be more than half done. Still enjoying it.

  • Finished Jotun: Valhala Edition. I was playing it a few weeks ago, but took a break at last boss. Finally went back and finished the game.

  • While I am enjoying Regalia, wanted something more action-oreinted, so looked at my backlog and started Neon Chrome. I am generally not a roguelike fan, but I like twin stick shooters, so started that. Not sure if I’ll actually finish this, but enjoying it for now.

What about all of you? What have you been playing?

    That’s good to hear about Arkham Knight, it’s on top of the backlog games (for PS) that I have to try… unless I end up buying Helldivers 2. @[email protected] has been putting lots of peer pressure on me.

    Does Sparks of Hope allow you to play without Mario? The first one didn’t allow it. Wondering if you can just remove them both from the team if you want a bit of challenge.

      Woah woah woah there buddy. I’ve only placed the requisite amount of peer pressure required to ensure long lasting managed democracy throughout the galaxy.

      You can remove Mario, which is great. But I’m also happy the bros break most overworld encounters as hard as they do. Those are the boring battles of enemies randomly scattered on generic maps that I want to get out of as soon as possible. It’s not as bad in the actual fights, but I’m also curious to see when the game catches up to me. I usually don’t hold back or limit myself on a first playthrough either, that’s only for subsequent playthroughs of games I enjoyed enough to have that challenge.

        Ah, makes sense.

        I generally like to be OP in these games. Specially if there is anything near to perma-death (which Mario+Rabbids thankfully doesn’t have)
