  • With frequent Nintendo eShop sales and bargains to be found on physical games, it's hard not to buy more games than you could ever realistically play, let alone finish. In this series, I try to make a small dent in the backlog by finishing a few games off and detailing my experiences of each. Please do let me know of any games you have finished recently. What games are on the list? Well, let's find out...

      Golden Axe 2 in easy mode. Lol. Games are hard to complete these days... Especially when there’s so many to get through. I think I’m close to finish Pokémon Legends Arceus, Star Ocean SSR, Crash 4 (forget about 100% on that game they are taking the piss with the difficulty) although I do like the Game.

    I recently went back to Hades after giving up a few years a go; it's taken me 50+ runs (60ish% on God Mode) to finally reach Styx. I also went back and gave Hollow Knight another stab - I managed to farm 220 souls and feel relatively accomplished.
    ...
    Annnnd then I noticed that Dredge was on sale. So I'm now running headfirst into cosmic horror, rather than banging said head against the proverbial wall because of my ineptitude at roguelites.

    I finished RDR1 recently and started Dragon Quest 3 and Coromon. I had to take a break from DQ3. It’s a bit of a slog but Ill finish it eventually. Coromon is a blast. I am also going through the Godzilla DLC in Dave the Diver as well. Such a fun game.

    I was disappointed to hear that after you beat Mario vs Donkey Kong you still couldn't play as the titular character, seems such a silly thing for Nintendo to have not included!
    I'm currently doing a second playthrough of FE Engage and am loving it so much! Up next: Hauntii

    I finally received my physical version of eiyuden chronicle last week and I can't stop playing it, I'm 33 hours in and the performance is better than I expected. I only had 1infinite loading screen and 1 script not starting to recruit someone but loaded my save and it fixed it. I just got the teleportation but I spend too many time with the beigoma story.

    I’ve recently finished Cuphead and the DLC on an expert difficulty. Now, I’m aiming at the S rank, but honestly, some of the bosses seem to be literally unbeatable without losing that one hp. I think I’ll have to use extra lives tip. However, I’m a persistent fan of this gem, and hopefully my objective will come to a happy end.

    I can't get enough of Vampire Survivors. After completing the game, I've found myself revisiting the game fairly often and checking off a handful of the challenges at a time, and it's still a fantastic time.
    And with yet another dlc, just added, too, incredible value 😀

    Not going to lie. Wrath of the Mutants has become a guilty pleasure title for me.
    Playing through it on hard mode (where it's actually challenging & you have to learn the levels rather than blindly mash through) made me appreciate it much more & I felt I got my money's worth.
    Although it's not as good as the other TMNT brawlers available on Switch, I find myself firing it up for a quick run through occasionally just like the original arcade games.

Lately I haven't been in the mood for playing bright colorful happy games like Mario games. I've just been stuck in the mood to sporadically play very dark/bleak/strange/weird/surreal nightmare-like kind of games. 😱😵‍💫😵

    My latest Clear was Bayonetta 3, which was pretty good, even though I think I enjoyed 2 more. But it felt good having now beat the entire triology.
    And my latest Give Up went to Dragon Quest 11, which I realized after about 15 hours was simply too mediocre to spend further time on. Which was painful because I bought it at full price for some reason.
    About Vampire Survivors, I unlocked and beat both the Adventure modes, is that it, or is there a third way to beat it?

    Played and Finished hollow knight after hearing so much good things about it. Yes I did enjoy it but also once I did the first ending I left it as is. Just couldn’t bring my self to endure it any longer. After I played Spiritfarer have mixed feelings as I felt they put all the meaningful moments in the first half of the game and after I started not really caring for the rest and as soon as I was given the possibility to finish the story I did. Overall good games but won’t likely replay.

    I finished Bustafellows. It is a dark visual novel Otome game. It is set in USA in the town of "New Seige", where there is a mayor problem with illegal immigration/Human trafficking. It was a great story and had me crying at the end. But the localization is shit. It is in Japanese, with English subs, but they only translated the written parts. Which is bad, because there are parts of the story which is only told "verbally", which includes the ending credit scenes. So if your Japanese listening skills is not up to anime-without-subs watching-standards then you should not get this game. Which is a shame for the Otome genre.
