Hello everyone!

Another very busy week, didn't really play much at all. And recently my DualSense (PS5 controller) started drifting and options button stopped working, so sent it for repairs, which means no PS5 games for few days. Which leaves:

  • New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe Still in water level, I paused the game and left it in sleep mode, which one of my kid closed, so I lost all progress since last castle. Had to replay all that. Now at the final castle of Water level.
  • Dragon Quest XI Played some more, killed a boss, and finished all the open available side quests. Now to next main quest.

What about you all? What are all of you playing? Or planning to play next?

Metroid Prime Remastered

I'm pretty happy to be playing through this again, though even the "modern" control options leave a bit to be desired. It also sucks that you can't start on hard mode - you have to beat the game on normal to unlock it. Anyways, that makes it a pretty chill experience through a super awesome world design.

Well, that's a problem with Remasters. Unless you go full remake, there can still be things left that aren't completely up to modern standards. I haven't yet played the game though, so don't know how it would feel for someone who has never played it before.
