Played quite a bit of Donkey Kong Bananza, have reached the Feast layer, though I did miss a few things in previous layer so will go back to it later to collect everything.

This should be very near to the end, as the whole skill tree has been unlocked, and how the story is progressing. Not going to rush though, going to play at my own pace, collecting everything before moving forward.


Played a little Judgment, not much to add here. Will fully focus on it after finishing Bananza and AI: The Somnium Files.


Finished the next two routes in AI: The Somnium Files.

Apparently my first playthrough ended in what is probably "true ending route" (I am assuming), as you need to complete the other 3, Red, Yellow and Blue route before you can continue that.

I have finished Yellow and Red route, now to the Blue Route, which I am guessing is going to be pretty long, since it diverges on Day 2, while others do on Day 3 or 4.

It was interesting to see some more info about people and what's happening, but there are still so many questions. Hopefully everything will be clear by the time I finish it.


I mentioned Diablo IV a few weeks back, but we are almost at the end. Just play it with friends, one night a week, but since we are mainly sticking with the main campaign, our progress isn't that slow. Plan is to finish the game this weekend.

The game is fun, but I miss the Diablo II skill tree, that was much better than what we have now, IMO.

I'll probably stop playing after that, but I do plan to return to it later, to play solo with other characters and do all the side stuff.

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

I haven't played much lately.

Bananza's post game is very underwhelming. Aside from the main content, which is okay, each world has maybe one or two new bananas added. And none of them are interesting in any way. Makes me wonder why they bothered to begin with?

Yakuza 3 is kinda starting now. The game went through the motions of introducing the three main mid bosses, I assume, and we're off to deal with them. After another round of Mahjong maybe...

The Witness has two faces. The puzzles that have you figure out the symbols within, which I like, and the puzzles that require you to find the solution with nearby shadows, sounds and whatnot, which I'm not as fond of. The world itself is really nice though, it kinda feels like you're in a dream with all the hidden lines in the environment and other little secrets that just kinda appear when you find the correct angle to look at them.

I felt similarly about Bananza and the post game. I really enjoyed the main game, but going back for bananas and the elder missions wasn't really that fun.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Hmm... I don't want to go back for more bananas... will decide when I get to it.

I need to learn Mahjong. Judgment doesn't have too many mini-games, but it does have multiple mahjongg parlours, I just watch them playing and go back out. Should take some time to learn now.

Yeah, the symbols one were fun, I got kinda lost with the other ones.

I've been playing Riichi Mahjong for years, online and offline. Was at the Riichi Nomi Open in NYC earlier this year. It's a very complicated game with a steep learning curve, but deeply rewarding once you get into it.

Shameless plug for !mahjong@lemmy.nerdcore.social

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Ah, this is called Richi Mahjong, found a "beginner's guide" online, will see how difficult it is to learn.

Also why is that a "shameless" plug? Didn't see your name in mod list...
