I did that as well, for the same reason. Finished it this afternoon, it was enjoyable. I still think fighting enemies is unforcomfortable, in the way that I call an echo that just attacks a lot. There is no single right echo for fighting yet, so having multiple enemies attacking me is a bit stressful.

Oh, jeez, completely forgot about that move. Stupid me.

Alright, I'm stuck in the first dungeon. There's a room with statues, one with a shield, and a locked door. Am I missing an Echo to do something here?

Yeah, that quick menu is... Not so quick after just a few Echoes. I'm two hours in and already have like 14 Echoes. They really should have put creatures in a separate button.

Nonono, this is it:

Not one for the cinema but will definitely watch it once it hits streaming. It looks fun enough.

Isn't that just snoring sounds?

How would one attach those JoyCons? It seems like you need to plug something into them but you can't do that, if you have to slide them down on the sides. And using magnets would surely hold them together very well?

Teslagrad 2 is currently 90 % off on eShop. Just saying. Hogwarts Legacy is 70 % off. Might actually pick that up.

After finishing The Perfect Couple on Netflix this week, my wife and I proceeded to try out The Curse. We watched the first episode yesterday but I don't think we are convinced about the story and premise. There's something incredibly awkward about it. Will watch episode two to see how it goes but if that does not pique our interest further, I think we'll drop it in favor of something like Shogun.

Wow. Yeah. That does not bode well. My son is of course thrilled about it... So they will probably sell at least two tickets.

That actually looks pretty darn good. Will definitely take my oldest son to the cinema to watch this. He was really excited when I showed him the trailer.

Found this for kind of cheap for pre-order - about £77. So I couldn't resist and pre-ordered it.

I haven't followed the game intensely but I haven't seen those gameplay segments before, hence being surprised by them. I've only seen the 2D sidescrolling bits before.

The top down 2D style with characters following the lead character. Or it's perhaps more a Zelda-like here, with it not being turn based battles but rather action based.

How many styles does this game have? This seems like an old school RPG now but the older trailer I saw showed lots of 3D and 2D blending action and platforming. Nice to know it's coming soon but will probably not get it right away. It looks cool but I'm not quite convinced that it'll actually be fun to play.

It's about 1200 pieces, the Piranha plant is 540. So it will be more expensive but about £100 does seem right.

Looks nice but will not pick it up. I go for sets that my son can play a bit with. Unless I find it cheap if course

Nice. I completed it the other day, at least got ending C. I don't want to go back. It was too tedious and the story didn't wrap up in any satisfying way. I might have to read up on it but at the moment I can't be bothered. It had a novel way of telling the story but the story itself is simply not worth the grind, I find. Ended up spending 27 hours on it officially but due to my Switch turning off sometimes, I might have lost an hour here or there.

I'm (still) playing this, just started working towards ending C. I get the praise for the game, I do, but I do find it a tad... boring to play? The world is bland, the combat is a bit dull (I know, I might not have explored it thoroughly as I play on Normal), and while the story seems interesting, I think it has been dragged too far out with me having to play the same game twice to uncover the true story. I get it, it's a way only games would be able to tell a story but I think the revelations in 9S' story were... too weak. I will finish it, though, as I am curious as to what the heck is going on.

I've started my paternity leave now and I'm spending the time my daughter sleeps in the morning with weight lifting and exercising. She sleeps for about an hour from 8.30 to 9.30 so it fits perfectly. My wife is home as well so every other day we do a WOD together, and the other days I lift weights, mainly focusing on squats and legs in general as I find that more useful (and I don't have a bench for bench press). Doing squats 4*8 @ 75 kg. I need some smaller plates as I can only go up to 85 kg from here (which I tried a single rep of, and it went fine!). Then I do some auxiliary movements - push-ups with weights, overhead lunges, single leg squats (just bodyweight though) and other stuff. I'm really enjoying this routine.

Perfect timing for that Silksong shadow drop after the Direct next week.... One can hope.

Oh No, which version to build!?

I don't know, I the Deku Tree isn't that interesting to me but I probably can't withstand the temptation once it's revealed. And if the rumour is true, we get some great mini figures with it...

Yesterday I got some 20 kg bumper plates (used but in good shape) so finally I can get some proper weight lifting done. I now have a total of 95 kg which is enough for most lifts. Tried it out just now. I haven't lifted more than 60 kg in more than 2 years so was a bit nervous but did 4*7 back squats at 75 kg with nice form, then did 3*10 Deadlift at 75 kg and then 1*5 at 95 kg. That last one wad great but I'm not looking forward to the DOMS tomorrow. On another note, I am having some pain in my knee, the outside of it to be specific. It's referred to as the LCL and might stem from biking (2*20 minutes a day in high speed) bit as Ove been biking most days for years it's a bit weird that it suddenly comes now. Might have to see a physician about it.
