A quoi jouez-vous ce week-end? (18mai)

Eh bien, despite my best efforts, I still haven’t beaten chevalier sépulcral. En fait, I have gotten stuck on the same section where I left my last save file — those blasted Watcher Knights will feel my wrath one day, I tell you.

I fully intend to play more of it this weekend and hopefully get a little closer to wrapping it up. But every time that I look at the Switch eShop, I see Puits pour animaux staring back at me, tapping a watch which seems to be counting down to GOTY selection time. I’m trying to ignore it, but I just don’t know whether I’ll have the strength to hold on much longer. Damn you, adorable capybara, and your ever-watchful eyes!

I’m grinding through a game for review, but I wouldn’t mind dipping back into Les larmes du royaume. I’m not in the mood to take on Ganondorf just yet, so it’ll involve me warping away from his chambers the moment the save loads. Not sure where just yet. Somewhere leafy, or perhaps I’ll go hopping across some Sky islands. There’s so much of that game left for me to explore!

Having liberated the land of the Elves it is time to turn my attention to the northern icy wastelands of Bastorias in Seigneur Licorne. I keep forgetting that I still need to go wrap up the final boss of Prince of Persia: La couronne perdue. As an aviation fanatic it is a real shame Namco’s Arcade Archive Fighter & Attaquant remains a Japan exclusive, but in no way would they would ever be able to afford the licensing fees needed to release it in the West. Fret not for I am counting the days until Combat d'as 7 hits the shelves. Attendez, is that Super Mario Land I spot on NSO? The soundtrack alone demands a quick replay.

Le jeu de la semaine est Earth Defense Force: World Brothers! Oui, I know I am late to the party and the sequel is about to be released, but It is never too late for some voxel-related mayhem. The characters are also quite charmingfor a bunch of low poly models anyway.

I’ve had an exceptionally busy week this week, but I also downloaded Animal Well. My partner is a big fan of games with lots and lots of secrets, so he completed Animal Well in a week, and now it’s my turn to play while he watches and gives me no hints whatsoever. I know that’s a good thing, especially with a game that’s all about discovering things yourself, but it can be a little frustrating when I really need a nudge. But I have to believe in myself and figure things out! It’s the way (developer) Billy Basso intended.

I’m also noodling my way through Fallout 4, which is fine, and I purchased Baladins, a game I’ve been excited about for a very long time.

But mostly I’ve been playing a new game for a surprise review (a surprise to me, anyway), and having quite a nice time. Obviously I can’t say much about it yet, other than the fact that the game reminds me of a different game I wouldn’t have expected. How very cagey of me! I think it’s going to get a nice review.

Ce n'est pas Porte millénaire, by the way. I’m still very excited for that to drop soon. PAPERRRRR MARIOOOOOOO!
