Hey everyone! I have no power in here, have not checked if anyone has started one of these but I feel like being the change I want to see in the world.
So! What are you playing this week?
I just started off Claire Obscure Expedition 33, and at the same time, have been getting my girlfriend to slowly wean off of Guilty Gear Strive and try out older fighter games like Guilty Gear XX and a more recent one, BlazBlueCrossTag (both to great success)
Also still haven’t beat the first major boss of Nightreign, not looking forward to the trashtalk from friends after the nerf because they did it first
I’ve been trapped in a Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time addiction ever since that came out. I’m a huge fan of the original 3DS game, but it was kinda forgotten by gaming history. And now we have a much bigger and more polished game for more platforms! For those who haven’t heard of it: it’s a bastard child of singleplayer Final Fantasy XIV and Animal Crossing. Very cute and cozy, mercilessly addicting, simulates the experience of having ADHD incredibly well.
This is how it typically goes: you want new furniture for your house. You’re out of a specific kind of wood that’s needed, so you go to a place that has it. On the way there you see an NPC with a quest - some poor farmer is besieged by overgrown carrots, and wants you to kill 10 of them. Might as well, it’s only a slight detour. You kill the carrots, and then help yourself to some more crops on the farm, and get a rare carrot that you need to cook a dish to advance your Chef Life! Better get to that immediately, before you forget. You go back to town and cook the dish. You still don’t have that new furniture you set out to get.
About the only thing I don’t like is that the story quests are less weird than the original game, everything else is a straight upgrade.

I loved the first fantasy life. It was such a fantastic game for class mechanic junkies.
Never ended up finishing it though.
Fuck me once I start playing it, I can see I’ll get addicted
