Tell me about it. I've played through that game twice on PS2 and once on PS4. I've never done more then a go or two at it before stopping cus it's not only long and so boring to watch but that RNG is killer. Thank goodness I'm not a trophy hunter in the slightest or that'd drive me batty 😂
Good luck on that fairly tiresome sounding resource farming! You've got more willpower then me @Ralizah
Oh yeah those crows (The one in the gallery in particular) are fudging awful @RogerRoger though it's the Cerberus (zombie dogs) that get me still!
Jill isn't that much worse at taking hits I don't think? For me the extra two slots she has typically means packing Jill with more firepower or an extra herb (Or both)... So she made up for it quite easily
@Ralizah Ooh well done. I haven't encountered that yet. I did randomly get a blue marlin which I was pretty chuffed about and finally managed to catch a tarantula before it bit my poor villager. 😂
@Tjuz Well, I'm including the whole process: selling off the excess fish clogging up my inventory as I look for it, digging for manilla clams, fashioning new poles and fish bait. Probably only a solid three hours or so of actual standing at the river fishing for it.
And thanks! The game is fun enough that I don't even feel particularly sore about the time spent trying to catch it. Just netted me some extra money, and I actually found a few new species I hadn't donated yet in the process.
I'm glad the Switch is a hybrid, though. I wouldn't want to sit near a TV doing this for hours. I can just integrate it into time I'm otherwise not doing anything with my hands, though.
@Ralizah Haha, the more I read about Animal Crossing the more I'm convinced it'd drive me insane! It does sound like a great tuning out game, so I wonder if many people actually play it with the Switch docked past the initial excitement. Glad you're having a great time with it, though. At least your efforts were still worth something even if you didn't get the fish you wanted for all those hours!
I played a bit more of FF7 Crisis Core. I’m still undecided, it’s a bit fanfic-like in the way it tells the story. The gameplay’s kinda button mashey too. It’s not bad, just a bit ungainly. It’s worked well as a test of my laptop’s ability to upscale PSP games though, it looks incredibly good.
Yesterday I started Persona 4 Dancing All Night on the Vita. It's been in my backlog for years, but buoyed by finally finishing Persona 4 Arena figured I'd take the opportunity to play through the various Persona spin-offs before I start Persona 5 Royal. I generally enjoy rhythm games, adore Persona music (the remixes here are excellent) and reckon there's never a bad excuse to be back with the wonderful Persona 4 cast. Alongside Persona 4 Arena I've realised just how versatile the modern Persona property actually is. Although the core games are exceptional examples of the RPG genre in their own right, their fundamental foundations are actually their great casts, attentive writing and stories that draw the player in. Given how beloved the cast of Persona 4 are it's unsurprising that with this core intact it can work with a variety of genres.
My coordination has been somewhat off since my illness last year, so I'm finding pressing lots of buttons in quick succession trickier than I anticipated. Practice will make perfect (hopefully)!
@KratosMD On paper it sounds a bit daft what with dancing to make the shadows happy, but it works! The cast always sound really enthusiastic, which is nice. It's a great fit for the Vita too.
@nessisonett Ooh I may try for the Platinum on this then, depending on how well I can keep up with hard mode. 😂 Will likely start P3 and P5 Dancing after Persona 4 Arena Ultimax.
@mookysam I don’t think the platinum requires too much work on the hardest difficulty thankfully! I’m not too shabby at those sorta rhythm games but some of the hardest difficulty songs are seriously difficult.
I’ve been playing some World of Horror on PC, it’s coming to PS4 once it’s a full release but jeez, even in early access I’m getting a severe sense of dread from it. It’s fantastic but I think I’ve shortened a few years off my life. Definitely a must have for fans of Japanese horror from Tetsuo the Iron Man to Yume Nikki.
Yesterday my Switch and Vita both ran out of battery! Finding myself in a bit of a quandary - and not wanting to schlep my arse off the sofa - I looked around, increasingly frantic that I would have to actually >gulp< get up. My gaze eventually settled on my ancient yet trusty 3DS, the abnormally warm Easter sun beaming directly where the system lay atop the coffee table. Taking it as a sign I gingerly pressed the power button to find the thing remarkably still held charge!
So that's how I came to start Box Boy!, a game I obtained a few years ago as a My Nintendo reward. The short puzzles are fun and although the presentation is very basic, Box Boy is rather cute and some of his moves are quite satisfying to perform. I'm roughly halfway through and reckon I'll probably buy the sequels.
