What game are you playing on a Nintendo console at the moment?

[SAUSAGEMAN]

I'm remembering what I disliked about XC2! The progression system is incomprehensible, the battle system is a lot less fun, complex, and dynamic than XC, the map is close to useless, the *menus* are slow and clunky, the gender politics are awful........

I'll probably give it another 5-10 hours but man what a step back.

I played a bit of "Untitled Goose Game" on my friends Switch last night. It was mildly amusing.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I found it highly honking fun.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I'm taking a Xeno-break to play some Donkey Kong Country. I keep dying. Then I'll play Future Connected then ask SAUSAGEMAN if I should play XC2.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

I'm still playing XC2 but can't in good conscience recommend it.

I took a very short stab at Future Connected and immediately dropped it.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I am enjoying Future Connected. Completely inessential but it's More Xenoblade and the Ponspectors are cute.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

It has been forty hours since I've understood anything about XC2's plot.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

Though a villain has just reacted with incredulity at the notion that our heroes are linked by "bonds of friendship" so we are at least playing in waters I understand

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

XC2 just goes full Evangelion in the last half hour.

On to Torna ~ The Golden Country I guess.

 

[CaptainWacky]

That's supposed to be better! (But I don't want to play 100 hours of XC2 first.)

 

[CaptainWacky]

I haven't played anything but Splatoon 2 since I moved house AND MAYBE I WON'T PLAY ANYTHING ELSE EVER AGAIN.

 

[CaptainWacky]

MAYBE I WON'T PLAY ANYTHING ELSE EVER AGAIN.

I am playing Luigi's Mansion 3.

Gooigi is adorable.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Luigi's Mansion 3: It's very good.

I wish I was a child so I could play this Mario Kart augmented reality thing.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

I'm not playing Torna, turns out.

Yeah that MK thing looks rad

 

[CaptainWacky]

Wait is this a real thing.

 

[Not David Bowie]

Well I should be playing Super Mario 3D World but Jeff Bezos is an actual asshole and lied right to my face about delivering it to me today. So I'm playing Paper Mario Origami King currently and it's a lot of fun.

Luigi's Mansion 3: It's very good.

I really like Luigi's Mansion 3.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I have been playing Star Wars Episode 1: Racer. It still holds up pretty well and has this in it.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

i'm playing mario 64

i've got bad news about mario 3d world it's only coming out in february

 

[CaptainWacky]

Real men played it on Wii U.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I am playing timeless classic Diddy's Kong Quest. It's really hard. How did I ever complete it as a 14 year old?

Also it has the best music ever out of all music.
