Still playing Dragon Age: Inquisition, nothing more to say about it. Though, while the game is still fun, I think my stamina for 50+ hours games has gone really down. I am about 65 hours in. I think I can do 10 or so more hours without much issue, hopefully I'll be near the end by then.

Played some more of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Cleared the first temple, and now clearing the second temple, I am quite sure I have cleared more than half of it. Should reach the third temple over the weekend.

One interesting thing is, Ocarina of Time has interesting dungeons and kinda meh overworld, which is opposite of BotW and TotK.

I also started couple of "side-games". Horizon Chase Turbo a no nonsense arcade racing game, it's just race after race, without any other shenanigans. I have only played the first area, so not sure if I will keep liking it, but for now I am enjoying it.

Also started Golf Story. This has been on my wishlist since Switch's launch year. A lite-RPG / golf game. I am not really a big golf fan, but I am enjoying it in this game.

What about all of you? What have you been playing?

Beat chapter 5 in Paper Mario. One of the new bosses added in the remake has opened up and I'll just try it soon. I probably won't win yet, but I'm curious.

Finished the main story of Yakuza Kiwami 2. The final battle ends with a quick time event that, if you lose, kills you. I wish I hadn't found out about that, but XBox controller inputs always take an extra second to process in my brain because they're so backwards. At least the fight is fun, so it wasn't too bad doing it twice. The hardest fight was the pen-pen-penultimate boss, some nameless guy who had no right being that tough. Now to clean up some leftover side content, which isn't too daunting. This should be the first time I finish the Completion List, the previous games both had something to make it stupid, but this one is very realistic.

I also dug out Wild Arms again for a third playthrough. It's been over a decade since I last played it. That's a series that could do with an HD Collection.

I don't remember the fight, but I do remember getting annoyed with some quick-time event in the end of some Yakuza game, this must be that.

I have heard a lot about Wild Arms, but never played it, would take a look if they release some updated version with QoL improvements ๐Ÿ˜€
