So, I finally started playing a new game

I haven't really played a new game in months, if not over a year. I started with 3d world on the switch. I only completed two stages, because I find it a bit frustrating to use the analog stick. even though the game is 3d, it plays more like a 2d game for the most part, and I find those hard as hell with the analog stick. I end up moving up instead of right or something like that.

anyway, I finally started playing bravely default 2. I'm still at the beginning (about one hour played). I'm trying to buy everything in the first town, so I've been gaining experience and money (pg?). I can't play for too long before I start getting bored with a game, so I turned it off after an hour. the game is quite good, better than I thought it'd be. I did try to beat that newt guarding a chest along the shoreline, near the first town. he massacred my party. I got hit with a spell that inflicted thousands out of everyone. I'm only on like level 5, so it killed everyone. I guess I have to come back much later in the game. anyway, I'll try playing this game an hour or two each day. it might be slow going, but I think that's how best I can enjoy it. it's funny. when I was a kid, I could play games for many, many hours, but now, I get bored too easily, so it's like an hour or two at best.

I use a dugout, which I kinda hate. I plan to buy a pipe on ebay for that. might get one I like. with a dugout, it falls out too easily unless you have the fan off and are smoking at an angle. my sister bought me one with a big hole, so you can take big hits with it.

@MaxToTheMax , yes. I have 143 games on my legit switch. I even got an email from my isp that I had used up 75% of my download cap for this month. one more game will download to one of my switches (have 3, all legit), and that is monster hunter rise. I'll probably play an hour or two in the mornings after I get done reading, which is something I've started doing on days I don't have appointments. then, I'll be back to the wii u later on in the day trying to beat my 99 live records in four or five different games. it's gotten kinda boring to do that though. that's why I decided to play a new game. I just get a bit overwhelmed, especially if it has collectibles or is an rpg. so much stuff to do and not forget about. :D

I'm thinking of the game: Empire? seen commercials on tv about it. Where you you're basically trading others to build your: Dream home? Anyway, I thought it was neat. :)

Looks like the auto save download on other switches from latest firmware worked. Save from bravely default 2 was downloaded to mario switch automatically.

I'm at a save point in the first dungeon. damn, I'm enjoying the game immensely. I've gained so many levels trying to buy the stuff in the first town (have all of it now) that enemies, all enemies, are running from me. I'm on level 7 or 8 with all characters as well as with their first jobs. anyway, I feel like I don't want to put it down, but my mother and I are about to watch something on my nvidia shield.

Yeah, I find that I'm switching between games quite often now, when I could focus on one almost exclusively as a teen. Like, right now I'm juggling Okami HD, Persona 4 Golden, and Xenoblade: Definitive NG+, with SSBU on the side, an unfinished XC2 NG+ save from like last year still hanging over my head, and I also started Persona 5 Strikers.

What the heck happened? I don't even know.

I got 3 Switch games for Christmas: Hyrule Warriors Calamity, Paper Mario Origami King, and Minecraft Dungeons... All carts. Haven't even opened them to play them yet. I also have DOOM 64 on Switch, haven't touched it yet... As well as a cart of Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout that I haven't played yet, and I plan on buying the 2nd game that came out recently. I have a back-catalog of Switch games, and I just don't play them... I don't know what's wrong with me. I just keep going back to Splatoon 2 and BotW.

I'm at the part where you are introduced to the B and D card game. I'm about 14 hours in bravely default 2. I plan to play 3d world, possibly bowser's fury, and 3d all stars (still can't find yoshi in sunshine) tomorrow. I need a break with a platformer as I do not understand the card game in bd 2. the tutorial is terrible.

I tried playing 3d world on the switch last Friday. boy was that a doozy. I died four times trying to get the stamp in plessie's stage. I love the game, but I hate the controls so much. it's just frustrating to play the game. I can use the analog stick in the wii u version, but Mario moves so damn fast in the switch one that he goes out of control. :(

I've started Wonder Boy - Asha in Monster World. I'm at the volcano. I was having problems with the video, which is why I haven't played a game for a while on the switch, but it seemed to be my old hdmi switcher, because it was messing up other video signals as well. I replaced it. it was messing up the video almost every time. I've turned on the system about five or six times with this new switcher, and every time it's been perfect, same with pc (another signal that was messed up). anyway, I'm enjoying the game a lot. I'm afraid it might be rather short though. I got 33 of those life drop things in the first 3 sections (about 45 minutes), and the game says there are 200 of them in the game.

I started playing Rise of the Tomb Raider, and it's hella fun, but I'm stuck at the last swimming section and can't beat it. (These swimming sections give me bad anxiety too)

I tried playing alex kidd about an hour ago, and boy is that game brutal. now, I'm finally going to play dragon quest xi, which I think is @AmandaRose 's favorite game. I had a save from when I got the game on release day, but it wasn't even at the second town yet. I was on lvl 8. I decided to start over just now, so I've beaten Tor, and I'm exploring the first town again. it's a bit overwhelming, these 3d towns and whatnot. so much to do and find. :P I'm hoping I can stick with this game as I beat the first three already on the switch back when they came out.
