Didn't play much this week.

Spent few hours on Dark Souls Remastered !

Last week I talked about how I haven't gotten stuck anywhere, and that's when I got stuck on the next boss. It was another 2 Boss at once, and that's kind of my weakness. Don't know how many times I died there, had to quit the game.

Fortunately, the solution to most such issues in Dark Souls is to just relax and play without panicking. Came back next day and defeated the boss in 2nd or 3rd try.

I should in the latter half of the game, but no idea how much is left. I know of at least 3 bosses that I have kill (narrative reasons), reached the first one and it's too strong. Checked an online guide and it suggests to come back there later, there are some other unexplored areas and I should go there first. So, doing that now, killing monsters, earning tons of souls and leveling up!

We played some Killing Floor 3 and it was okay. It wasn't great but not too bad either, but since I don't play these kind of games I have no idea what the standard is. Overall the consensus was that we won't be playing it again, so that's over now.

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

Well, 8 is good. As long as game is fun some flaws can be ignored. Though hope the take the feedback and improve it in next game. Did you use amiibo? Miss anything?

Islets and Crypt Custodian both are in my wishlist, as well as his older game Sheepo and the upcoming one Well Deweller. Haven't played any of them yet though.

Haven't checked the spoiler, but should I play Tsukihime before Witch on the Holy Night? The latter is on my wishlist on your recommendation, but not the former.

Didn't use amiibos, though I'll admit that some good music would've made the desert portions less boring. Ended up with 100% items and 92% scans, which almost certainly is my highest collection rate for any Metroid game. There's some "Scout Bots" that you can activate late-game that will tell you the locations of items you missed, which is a really nice QOL feature.

Nah, Witch on the Holy Night chronologically takes place before Tsukihime so it's a good starting point.

Okay, will decide if I should play others or not after playing the Witch on the Holy Night.
