With all the Switch 2 hoopla, I forgot about the weekly thread.

This was also a busy week, as predicted, so didn't get to do any gaming at all. Things should be getting back to normal though.

Plan to play Dragon Age: The Veilguard over the weekend, and then continue Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition from Monday.

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

I've finally started Pokemon Legends: Arceus, and I'm really enjoying it. It's a fun take on the standard Pokemon game, and I'm excited to see where it goes. I've almost completed the Scarlet DLC (just need 2 more group BBQs and the related legendaries), and I've been enjoying a bit of shiny hunting there, which isn't something I've ever enjoyed in the past. I hear it's even more fun in Legends: Arceus, which is very exciting.

I felt that shinies were somehow more common in Arceus than Scarlet. I guess it's not too difficult in Scarlet if you can make enough of the right kind of sandwich, but in Arceus they simply seem to spawn randomly more often.
