Finished Final Fantasy XIV !

Well, at least A Realm Reborn, there are still some post game quests that lead to the first expansion Heavesward, but going to move the game to secondary for now and focus on other games for a little while.

As for the story, it wasn’t bad, but it didn’t had the twists and turns I have come to expect from Final Fantasy games. It is the weakest content in FF14 though, and Heavensward is considered one of the strongest, so looking forward to eventually starting it.

They did introduce quite a bit of combat elements just before the final dungeon, which also helped me understand why I am doing level 50 quests and yet still have a “newbie” icon with my name…

Finished Tiny Lands !

Not much to add here, but got stuck on couple of puzzles, so had to look them up online, they weren’t that difficult just couldn’t find them for some reason.

Started Dimension Drive. I got it on last sale but hadn’t started it. It’s a vertical shoot 'em up which isn’t a bullet hell. The main gimmick here is that screen is divided in two, and you can teleport from one to other side. Both sides are bit different with enemies coming in different orders etc.

Overall, the game isn’t too difficult, but I am only on second world (each world has 4 levels) and only getting C rating. It would probably take good level of skill to get to S rating.

Also started Moonlighter. I played it long time ago and dropped it. As I have mentioned many times, I am not a big fan of roguelikes, but wanted some dungeon crawling, also cozy games, so it seemed like a nice mixture of two.

I am still in first dungeon, but have reached the 3rd level (out of 4), but I have scratched the itch I had, so not sure if I’ll continue or not. May play a bit more, but I doubt I’ll actually finish it.

That’s it for now. Will be focusing on Judgment over the weekend, and will also look for some “big” Switch game to start, but not sure which one yet.

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

    I just discovered WarioWare, Inc in the Switch’s Game Boy Advance collection. I didn’t expect to get sucked into these little minigames so quickly. The rapid-fire back-to-back format is really engaging some hyper-focus-y part of my brain.

    Kinda frustrating at times, though, lol. Some of the games are really obtuse. It took me dozens of attempts at one of the trampoline games before I realized I’m controlling the trampoline, not the guy jumping on it.

      Oh my, I did not realize Wario Ware was on Switch with the extension pack. That game is easily one of my top three best gaming values of all time and would be my number one GBA title if it wasn’t for Rhythm Heaven.

      I have probably played the jump rope game hundreds of times. It is a genius game that has never been followed up with a 100% better game. Thanks for the memories!

      I have never played WarioWare games, they look too wacky. Should try the one available on NSO and see what the deal is.
