That was a major pain point on the original WiiU version as people outside your party didn’t get any experience, making it much harder to swap team members an get affinity to unlock their storyline. Thankfully it looks like this was fixed in the Switch version.

Let's hope so. I would be really annoyed if they didn't get any experience.

As for Trails Through Daybreak 2, they seem to have annualized the series. This one was released just an year after the first game. They should probably start taking some time.

Strategy games, nice!

I played it very recently, without any history with the IP. Probably got it in some Humble Bundle or something, cause I don't actually remember buying it.

Overall I enjoyed the game, agree with your summary about writing, graphics and combat, but it didn't feel anything great. Good, but not great is my opinion. Personally, felt more like 7 or 7.5/10.

I am not a big Pokémon fan, and don't care about playing all the games.

I have only played two yet, "Let's Go Pikachu" and then "Sword". Was looking forward to trying the next one they release, and to my untrained I, it looks pretty good (though I agree that super-evolve - or whatever - didn't look that exciting), but I am skeptical of the performance. Wondering if I should skip this too, and the go for the first Switch 2 Pokémon they release? Will probably wait for the reviews and then decide.

And yeah, don't know what they mean for Legends tag now. It has legends name, but it looks similar to normal Pokémon. Arceus looked very different.

Well, mobile games are generally quicker than their console counterpart, demand of the platform.

Yeah, these old games are pretty tough. I got recommended a list of new-ish games in the genre recently, plan to try them out soon-ish.

How are you liking Civ 7? People generally are annoyed by every new Civ, until they release a bunch of DLCs to add various items back. Hearing some negative stuff about 7 too.

Yeah, that is why I mentioned mechanically. It also has my least favourite combat system, but that could just be it being my first XC game and it taking a while to get my head wrapped around it. But yeah, the characters and the world are interesting.

Got it. Thanks for the info!

Hope they release a patch for Switch 2.

It is! I am still in the start, 5-1, but it's going great.

XC-2 was my first XC so it holds a special place for me, but not a fan of the gacha system. Mechanically, it's probably my least favourite game in trilogy.

I am not a big fan of roguelikes (or roguelites) but Lost in Random is on my wishlist. Should try it soon.

Oh yeah, someone mentioned the crashing here before. That's pretty weird that first party game crashes on all first edition consoles. They should do something about it.

Is it possible that your son only did main quests, and those areas are for side quests etc?

Ah, okay.

If they are unisex, doesn't mean they both have same? Or do they still have different armors, but both can be worn by any gender?

What do you think about the upcoming Z/A?

Oooh nice. I posted the launch trailer here, and it looked interesting. Would love to hear what you think about the full game.

lol, you had me for a moment. Restarting a game after playing it for 138 hours, oof!

Switch port is pretty great, except when you watch PS5 video and realise hoe beautiful the game is. Other than that, had no issue on Switch, it looks and play great (specially if toy never played the game anywhere else)

Reached the credits for MH? How many hours are that, btw?

Yeah, there are some cut scenes, and some finishers that are ultra violent (if I am remembering right).

One thing that felt different but I never put my finger on, until I read somewhere, is that game is made like a single shot film, there is no camera cut in whole game. Gives the game a very interesting look and feel.

As a father, some Kratos and Aterus moments can be very touching.

How are you enjoying the game?

Good to know that I am not the only one.
