Decided to take a bit of a punt on Snake Pass as I was pretty sceptical of the controls and a little put off by there being no enemies and it seeming a bit bland gameplay wise.
While I think it'll definitely get tedious after a while, it's more fun than I was anticipating. Controlling the snake is smooth and fun to use, and I'm enjoying the simple, physics-based puzzles of the early levels so far.
I still wish there was a bit more of a challenge to it in regard to having enemies but it's a nice relaxing game and a welcome change of pace compared to something like Horizon or Resident Evil.
@roe Yeah you gotta break those AAA releases up with these smaller games. I'm playing a few indies now before Persona. Variety is the spice of life n all that.
Thanks to @Gamer83 I decided to pick up MLB The Show 17. The retro mode was too good to pass up so I know I will enjoy that if I don't enjoy the main game.

@KratosMD I felt the pointer controls made my precision much worse, actually, considering how picky the sensor bar is about the placement of my Wiimote, which isn't 1:1 with the TV. If Wiimotes operated like light guns, then they would be much more accurate, but you have to orient it relative to the sensor bar, which throws off your precision because you're focusing on the stupid controller instead of the game.
Limited gyro controls, like in BotW, would have made a lot of sense for this game as well, thanks to the way they allow for precise and quick aiming.
Between a control stick and a wiimote, though? Control stick every time.
@Ralizah I always found that a problem with the Wii as well. Even with the sensor bar directly underneath the tv, it still never lined up properly and you'd have to adjust your aim to compensate for it all the time.
@Tasuki I recently purchased the original on my PS3 and I was surprised by how much I like the game since I've never been much of a fan of mature games, but it isn't senselessly violent like other mature games and the art-direction is absolutely gorgeous!
@Rukiafan7 Yep I was the same way, I wasn't too big in FPS but bought BL on 360 years ago so that my son and I had something to play together and I have been hooked since. I will say the RPG elements really add to the game.

The 3 most recent purchases were Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, Battlefield 1, and an Astro A40 TR [Tournament Ready] Headset with the MixAmp Pro. Still figuring out the desired Equalizer sets for games. The headset with the 2 year warranty was $302. Still trying to figure things out with it, seems pretty awesome though.
