Almost at the end of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition

Finished Chapter 13 Act 2.

So Chapter 12 was the original edition ending? What was that ending? Also Chapter 13 seems like a filler, specially Act 2. Hopefully Act 3 is better. Still, good to know what happens next, even though not rhe fan of the direction it took.

As for the side stuff, have done most of things below Level 45, not much above it. Though I am level 60, so most of that should be easy enough, but I want to see the ending first. I probably won't do the side stuff that requires level above 60, but let's see.

Played more Marvel's Midnight Suns. The super hero drama continues. I am focusing more on story missions now than then side missions, but doing them if it catches my eye.

Put a pause on Ghost of Tsushima. Want to finish Marvel Suns before getting back to it.

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

I've been playing mostly The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. I want to do all the 152 shrines before I go back to finish the main story. I'm at 136, so only a few more to go. I've been using the Nintendo Switch App with the navigation to have a look at the map and see where the shrines I'm missing are. They've been mostly inside caves so far.

After I'm done with Zelda, I need to decide if I'm getting Cyberpunk or Donkey Kong as my next big game 🤔

It’s also helpful to complete the underworld, since the overworld shrines will be right above the light roots.

Wow, 136 shrines already done, nice!

How useful is the app?

I vote for DK, since I'll be getting that too. 😀

I mostly use the Navigation feature. You can choose what you want it to display: Shrines, cave entrances, stone tablets, etc. And it shows the ones you haven't discovered, so that's the main thing for me. The feature that tells you where to go like a GPS is not that useful. If there's a cave entrance close to a shrine, it's usually going to be in that cave. It does tell you to go to the cave entrance if you activate it too, in case you're lost.

I vote for DK, since I’ll be getting that too. 😀

I'm not 100% convinced with DK. The Direct made it look awesome, but in my mind I'm relating it too much to my experience with Mario Odyssey. That game was ok, but it didn't feel so much like a Mario to me. I prefer 3D Land and 3D World + Bowser's Fury, the Galaxies, and any 2D Mario. It looked really fun, but I didn't have that much fun myself. I've gone back to Wonder and 3D World, but not to Odyssey.

Also Cyberpunk looks amazing and it's a third party full game on the cart, so I want to support them!

I'll need to decide...

Oh, I loved Odyssey, if you didn't enjoy it too much, going with Cyberpunk might be a better option, if you are an RPG fan it seems to be a must play (though I still haven't played it myself, but it's pretty high on my list). You can always come back to DK if you think you'll enjoy it, after seeing the reviews.
