Hello Everyone!

I finally finished The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Took about 90 hours, and still have a lot left to do, but wanted to find out the full story, so finished the main quest. I liked the story a lot more than BotW. If you have already finished it, what did you think about the story? (without giving away any spoilers). Going to keep playing this as my primary game for a while though, while also thinking about which game to start next.

Secondary games:

  • Finished Marvel's Avengers. Nothing new to say about it. It could've been a very good game, if not for Live Service elements.
  • Almost finished Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge. I am at stage 14, so just couple of them left. Will check the trophies after finishing the game and see if I want to platinum it. Only playing it with my kid, so going a bit slowly.
  • Started The Order 1886, it's a very small games, 4-5 hours at most, but didn't get much time to play after starting it, would try to finish it. The games holds up really well visually and gameplay vise.
  • I have committed to Monster Hunter: World now. Going to finish it, no matter how long it takes. Until now, I was only playing it with friends, but would try to do some optional stuff solo too, now that TotK is finished.

That's all for now. What about all of you? What are you playing? And what do you plan to play next? And how are you enjoying them?

I always start a new Diablo game with spin2win Barbarian, so that’s what I’m doing to start with; I’ll probably switch to Sorcerer or Necromancer for the season. My wife is doing a Pulverize Druid, and we’ve both been enjoying it! We put hundreds of hours into D3 together, so we’re just happy to have something fresh but familiar to dig into.

As far as the trailer goes, I like that there’s new quests and story to go with it, but it’s hard to get too much from it without any significant gameplay reveal. The description the devs gave sounds interesting though!

"Spin2win Barbarian" sounds fun. I generally start with some magic class, but then switch to Barbarian later, to get close and personal with the enemies! (Haven't started D4 yet though).

Diablo games are fun to play co-op, I played Diablo 3 a bit with my wife, would try to get her to play again when we get D4.

Yeah, Diablo games hit a good sweet spot— mechanically engaging enough to make moment to moment gameplay feel dynamic , but not so engaging that it’s too difficult or overwhelming for inexperienced gamers like my wife. Diablo 3 was one of the first handful of games she learned how to play during the COVID lockdown (after Animal Crossing, of course 😂)

Haha, same here. She loved Animal Crossing, and enjoyed Diablo 3 after that, but we didn't get into it that much. Would try again with Diablo 4.
