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.

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.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Got off there about 10-ish minutes ago, and I really enjoyed what I played! The characters already are all very charming and seem engaging so far, and I'm a sucker for being able to walk around the Monastery and explore and stuff. Even just the prologue and bits of chapter 1 I've seen already are 100000x more promising than Awakening and Fates, like a real return to form for my tastes.

For my first playthrough, I'm with the Golden Deer (will probably try to recruit at least Linhardt into my house though) and am playing on Hard/Classic.

Jumping on the bandwagon played 3 Houses all day with my sister and kids. I won’t spoil anything but it’s certainly a higher quality story than Fates and I’m already thinking this could be the best game in the series for me personally.

Sorry to post this here but does anyone know how I get screenshots from my Switch to my phone or PC?

Also Three Houses looks so good artstyle wise makes me sad how Pokémon looks I know totally unrelated but Zelda and FE3H just look so much better.

Currently waiting on my sister to get here to play more Fire Emblem.

So many fire emblem players right now :O

As for me, I finished up Ys Origin as Yunica last night. Thinking of starting either Hollow Knight or Titanfall 2

Fire Emblem Three Houses of course.

And this might just be the best FE game. The story has me hooked when I’m not far in, and the support convos are the best I’ve seen. And so far I only have C supports.

Most of all I chose black eagles strictly for Hubert and didn’t care much for the others save one or two, but now I love the whole house save for one, which is actually growing on me.

This game is simply amazing so far and I have a feeling I’ll be playing it for a while.

Oh another Ys fan! Hollow Knight as well controversial perhaps but Hollow Knight/tied with Ori is my favourite game of this generation I can’t wait for the DLC I always wanted to play as Hornet. :bulbaLove:

I hope they bring Ori to the Switch...

I chose Black Eagles because my Mother’s side family has the coat of arms of an Eagle and Poland’s symbol is the white Eagle.

Loving this game so far please everyone protect Mercedes she is the bestest of girls. Love exploring the monastery as well feels like a real step forward for the franchise.

Fire Emblem Three Houses,
Playing normal classic, since this is the first playthrough I'm going with the easiest difficulty to really get a feel and make most of the new stuff, my second playthrough (which I'll do with Blue Lions) I'll do hard classic. Chose the Golden Deer of course for my first house. I'm gonna recruit Linhardt and Felix, especially the former since this first playthrough I'm playing as Male!Byleth, so I'll marry him to Linhardt later on when the game gets to that point (just used the default name for Male!Byleth, not sure what I'll use for Fem!Byleth though). The in-game cutscenes are certainly more charming when actually playing than watching from trailers. Exploring the monastery is so cool, and I liked how the house leaders introduce/talk about their fellow students in each respective house. Currently still exploring around the monastery, so sometime tonight I'll get right back into the game.

Fire Emblem Heroes, I finally pulled Claude last night! Now I can finally use a team I've been wanting to build and train. Also, his sprite looks great with the Officer's Academy hat on.
