Didn't play much this week. Just a bit of Pokémon Pokopia and Xuan Yuan Sword: Mists Beyond the Mountains. No significant progress in either of them.

No Tom Clancy's The Division this week, but there shouldn't be much stuff left in main campaign so will try to focus on it a bit to finish it soon.

Have been thinking about starting Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed on PS this weekend. Got it as a PS+ game recently and it has been on my wishlist for a while, not to mention my nostalgia for Mickey Mouse. Depends on how much play time I get this weekend though.

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

Finished Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade? The title is too much. Part one of the remake is done! Except I unlocked a hard mode I don’t want that is required to see certain parts of the story. I should have gone though it on easy; then I might have the interest in looking for more.

Started the Spring Season of my Microsoft Excel and Kahoot powered baseball game for my students. I printed box scores for the first four games and posted them on the lockers outside of my classroom. I am getting so much joy from the programming involved in transforming mostly random numbers into a baseball game with a story. One of these weeks, I’ll block out the names and post a box score.

Regarding Ticket to Ride Legacy: @slimerancher@lemmy.world asked about the difference between this and the original game, so I wanted to share with y’all what makes it so special. The idea of a legacy game is that choices made in the first (of twelve or so) game you play leads to different outcomes in future games. We are all railroaders looking to make money in the late 1800s but because of the time, in the first three games of the legacy, we are limited to routes from the Atlantic to the Mississippi. Over time, you expand the map as the story develops.

Tap for spoiler

There is a story line and which color you play as for the legacy affects things as well (current, if I claim a red line, I get two dollars income the red player).

When I won the third game and fourth game, one of the things I got to decide was where the story expands to next: Florida, Texas-area, or the Great Plains. As a Floridian for most of my life, I avoided it. When we bring the game out next time, we will assemble the starting pieces of the map (like a big puzzle) and add in the Great Plains and Texas.

There’s a lot more to say, but I’ll just add one thing: when you complete a route, at the end of the game, you punch the ticket. Some routes unlock a special power or scoring opportunity for a later game. Some routes require the same player to complete it twice in order to “retire” the route.

Writing about it this much makes me itchy to play more. I don’t want to spoil any more of it, but for those of you just wondering, there’s nothing earth-shattering behind the spoiler tag. If you are already planning on playing, don’t read it!

I think I’ll start the FFVII Interlude with Yuffie tonight!
