What video games are you playing now?

[Midorikawa]

Fire Emblem Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem Sacred Stones mostly, however I’ve been dabbling with FE7, FE6, Awakening, and Fates a little. Though I’m mostly working towards the games I haven’t beaten until FETH.

Splatoon 2 (Switch)
Doing some Final Splatfest battles for Team Order. I am LOVING the use of both Calamari Inkantation and the old Splatfest theme from Splatoon 1 being used here. Both of those are way better than the Off the Hook songs we usually get at Splatfest.

Littlewood. I need to find somewhere to build the marketplace. My town is kinda small now.

I just need to play through normal mode in AC5 with an S rank on each mission to finally get the platinum trophy!!

Terraria: Finally decided to bite the bullet and farm the vitamins and black lens I needed. The vitamins were pretty quick, but the black lens took an ungodly amount of time and over 400 eyes killed for a 1% drop. And of course on the night when it finally does drop I get two in one night. Then Skeletron Prime showed up and I royally kicked his robotic butt. But of course I ran out of Hallowed Bars and had to rematch The Destroyer several times, and let me tell you, a Nimbus Rod will destroy that thing. So I did that, made my Optic Staff, a drax, a full stack of Light Discs, and an Excalibur. And then since I'd beaten my last mechanical boss, I finally had something that could mine chlorophyte. I got enough for a full set of armour, and now I've just gotta stockpile it I guess, since for some goddamn reason everything before the Lunatic Cultist needs to use chlorophyte to make. On the plus side at least you can literally farm the stuff.

Tales of Berseria: Not much to talk about. Just played the bonus dungeon, didn't even bother trying to go further, tried to grind up gear/Katz spirits and stuff.

Pokemon TCG 2 for the GameBoy Color. Oh yeah, this sequel is SO MUCH BETTER than the original!

 

[Lylian]

Story of Seasons- Trio of Towns. Boy file: just built a large coop. Now I'm getting more chickens.

MH4U. Doing online hunts with random people. We tried G-rank Teostra tonight, and that went about as well as could be expected (i.e: quest failed just five minutes in). After that, we did some lower rank quests for a change of pace, with notably more success.

I was given Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor for my birthday the year it released. I flew through it at night time once the kids were asleep. Unfortunately several of the trophies had bugged and I was left defatted same thing happened to my husband with the Assassin’s Creed Origins game.

I’ve been in a mood to play anything Lord of the Rings. I started a new game and I’ve picked up all but one of the missing trophies.

Anyone know how long it takes to finish the Shadow Wars it seems like a really boring grind.

Tales of Berseria: Still not gone any deeper into the bonus dungeon, since spirit collection is rather slow when you're also trying to grind out enhancement materials at the same time. I did learn how linking Mystic Artes works though, which is neat because it gives a way for Rokurou and Magilou's 3rd level Mystics to actually be usable, since the 5th Mystic in a chain is 3rd level.

I just earned Playstation Platinum #301 “The Bright Lord” - Middle Earth: Shadow of War.

Just finished 100%ing Persona 5! Just in time for 3 Houses

 

[Tood]

Finished a 100% run of LoZ: Phantom Hourglass today. Good lord, that is one crusty-looking game. I am surprised the controls weren't as awful as I remembered them to be.

I need to go back to that game. I remember that I needed to ask for help to draw the hourglass and the Triforce since no matter what I did, the game never understood my handwritting. This is also why I couldn't beat the final boss.

Wii Sports
Mixing up my usual exercise routine (which is normally Wii Fit U + Dance Dance Revolution and/or stationary bike) with this blast from the past. Going to be doing boxing and tennis mostly since they require the most movement, though, truth be told, baseball is my favorite one.

Been replaying Fire Emblem Sacred Stones in wait for FETH tomorrow, playing through best sibling's Ephraim's route first yet again.

Fire Emblem Heroes, still trying to summon Claude but he just won't show. I still have twelve more days until the event is over, but I really want him soon for my new team I'm going to build. (at least I'll have solace in getting Male!Byleth free tomorrow, since he'll also be part of this new team as well)

Of course tomorrow I'll be doing my playthrough of FETH, I might also add in a replay of GotHW alongside this playthrough. FE4 is one of my top favorite FE games, so I'm going to compare both as I play. (and I have a little theory still getting worked on about FE4 and 16 tbh)

Various grinds in MH4U. Hunting just one Chameleos (the caravan version, in the Everwood) was apparently enough materials to craft the Chameleos Insect Glaive, and hunting just a second one (same quest, which for some reason occurs on the Ancestral Steppe during repeat attempts) gave me enough extra materials to completely upgrade it all the way to maximum. (Which also fills the achievement for acquiring three rare-10 glaives, as each major upgrade gets counted as a new glaive)

I also actually lopped off its tail during the hunt (a rarity for this dragon) !

Coincidentally, on a previous save when I first set out to actually learn a new weapon type (after lots and lots of Charge Blade) I picked Insect Glaive, and chose to craft the Chameleos glaive because why not (I did have the parts). Half of the battle is knowing how to use your weapon, but the other half is simply knowing how to react to whatever monster you're hunting (and is mostly the same regardless of weapon).

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

I picked free shipping from Amazon but they still sent it on the release day anyway so. Guess now its time to make plenty of time for my Switch again.
