Finished Final Fantasy XIV !

Well, at least A Realm Reborn, there are still some post game quests that lead to the first expansion Heavesward, but going to move the game to secondary for now and focus on other games for a little while.

As for the story, it wasn't bad, but it didn't had the twists and turns I have come to expect from Final Fantasy games. It is the weakest content in FF14 though, and Heavensward is considered one of the strongest, so looking forward to eventually starting it.

They did introduce quite a bit of combat elements just before the final dungeon, which also helped me understand why I am doing level 50 quests and yet still have a "newbie" icon with my name...


Finished Tiny Lands !

Not much to add here, but got stuck on couple of puzzles, so had to look them up online, they weren't that difficult just couldn't find them for some reason.


Started Dimension Drive. I got it on last sale but hadn't started it. It's a vertical shoot 'em up which isn't a bullet hell. The main gimmick here is that screen is divided in two, and you can teleport from one to other side. Both sides are bit different with enemies coming in different orders etc.

Overall, the game isn't too difficult, but I am only on second world (each world has 4 levels) and only getting C rating. It would probably take good level of skill to get to S rating.


Also started Moonlighter. I played it long time ago and dropped it. As I have mentioned many times, I am not a big fan of roguelikes, but wanted some dungeon crawling, also cozy games, so it seemed like a nice mixture of two.

I am still in first dungeon, but have reached the 3rd level (out of 4), but I have scratched the itch I had, so not sure if I'll continue or not. May play a bit more, but I doubt I'll actually finish it.


That's it for now. Will be focusing on Judgment over the weekend, and will also look for some "big" Switch game to start, but not sure which one yet.


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

Only have time for Battlefield 6 at the moment. I paid for a month of EA Play Pro since I was on the fence about buying it at full price. When I have a bit more free time in the summer I want to start working through some of my Switch backlog, particularly the visual novels.

Couple of my friends are playing it, may get it for multiplayer if rest of them get too. Don't really play multiplayer much, but it's fun when all of us are playing together.

Otherwise, if single player has good reviews, will play it down the road in a few years.

I'm in Oceania so I figured if was best to get in while our region still has a lot of players at launch. It generally shrinks over time and we get left with very limited servers and game modes. My new problem is that I'm enjoying it more than I expected, which means I am becoming tempted to pay the exorbitant price I said I would avoid...

If you are enjoying it (and can afford it), I say go with it!
