Just started Bug Fables!
Otherwise, more hours into Vampire Survivors
Have heard good things about Bug Fables. How are you liking it?
So far, it's good. Art is cute, characters interesting and gameplay engaging. Its very similar to old Paper Mario games. I picked it up for sale $10 and it is exactly what I needed this time (simple game, on the more upbeat side).
Doom and gloom of the world has been getting to me lately so the escape was needed. No super serious games ATM
I haven't played any Zelda this week, that slot has been all Lightning Returns. The Wildlands have just really gotten to me, though I think I have taken it too far. There is this interesting mechanic that only works because the game runs on a time limit: You can fight monsters to extinction. Fight enough monsters of a kind and a beefed up version called the Last One appears, literally the last survivor of its species. And then that monster type is gone from the game! I may have kept time frozen for too long, the Wildlands aren't very wild anymore which leaves me with fewer means to freeze time later when I might need it.
I finished off Snowboard Kids 2 and have picked up good old Deus Ex again. Parts of it don't quite hit the same anymore. Conspiracy theories used to be more fun in the early 2000s. Knowing that a lot of people today believe much dumber stuff really dulls that experience.
That's a really interesting mechanic, exterminating a whole species.
Heh. Haven't played Deux Ex in a long time, but that's sad.
Replayed Portal + Portal 2!
Had beaten those games a long time ago on the 360 but could resist picking them up with that -75% sale. They're still just as good as I remember, and the Switch version runs perfectly.
Playing Qualia: The Path of Promise!
Not a lot of progress this week. So far it's been underwhelming, just a generic romance story.
Playing Vampire Survivors!
Still playing this as a side-game, still unlocking more weapons/stages/characters.
That's a great sale for Portal! I'd buy them, but I own them on Steam already, better spend that money on new games (I'm repeating to myself so I don't buy them again). They're such amazing games though...
