Hello Everyone!

Let’s start a first ever, “What are you playing this weekend?”.

I am still completely enthralled by The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. I am about 50-60 hours in, and still have lots of explore. I don’t want to mention anything that might be a spoiler, but I think I should be around 60% done with the story. I am on media blackout about the game, so I don’t actually know how long it actually it is, but this is what it seems like. Of course, if I go by total amount of Shrines, or Koroks, I am probably just 10-20% of the total.

All my other games are on pause, probably not going to resume anything else until I have finished Zelda.

What about all of you? What are you playing?

    Just finished BOTW this weekend and taking a break from Zelda. Picked up Pokemon Violet again but got distracted. Does Pokemon Violet get more engaging? I’m on the 3rd gym and I feel like they’re still holding my hand.

    • Botw gave me an experience that I haven’t had since Skyrim was new - I wanted to go out of my way to explore the whole world. Leave no piece of the map untouched.

      Man, what I would give to experience Skyrim for the first time again.

      I haven’t touched a Pokemon game since X/Y. Black and White 2 were where Pokemon peaked, imho. I checked out after X/Y.

        I’ve played every Pokemon game since the original Red, and it’s definitely getting staler. I enjoyed Sun/Moon a lot but I can’t recommend Sword/Shield or Scarlet/Violet at all. Hope that ToTK scratches that open world itch that I have from games like Skyrim, BoTW and Horizon Zero Dawn/Forbidden West.
