Got pretty close to the finishing Astral Chain, just 2 levels remaining. Nothing new to add though.


Finished Nier Replicant , well, at least got the first ending, Ending A. Now playing for Ending B, stopped at the front of last dungeon, so should finish this over the weekend. Then comes Ending C, Ending D and Ending E.

Generally I don't playthrough the game again and again, but I am interested in seeing how they unfold the story, and since I am only doing the main quest in this playthrough it was pretty quick. There are still many questions, but the second playthrough is explaining a few things (and making us feel bad about some things).


So, what about all you? What have you been playing?

Ah, cool. Do we have enough first party stuff remaining for Switch to get a Direct? At this point, I am hoping they would be going all in for Switch 2 exclusives.

What happens when you are out of life? Game over?

Maybe more remakes? The Wind Waker and Twilight Princess HD remasters have been rumoured for years. Nintendo could have one last big game for Switch to say goodbye. We'll see...

Lives in DKC Returns HD are super cheap. I have over 30 lives, so I haven't discovered what happens when you lose them all yet.

Yeah, we can also get some new game announcement that they can announce again on Switch 2 Direct with "runs better on Switch 2" thing. But not sure it makes sense to show Switch version as weak when there are 100+ million of Switch users out there who won't get Switch 2 on launch. But yeah, let's see.

Well, the amount of times I have died in DKC 2 (but never lost a life due to using save states!), I am sure I'll be able to find out the answer to that question.
