I have been under the weather, so haven't played much.

Still in the 2nd last area of Xuan Yuan Sword: Mists Beyond the Mountains, the story took some weird turn. Everyone is going along with it though, so hopefully they will explain it later.

Dropped Tom Clancy's The Division. My friends, with whom I started this game, dropped it a while ago, I wanted to complete it, but got tired of the grind, and then dying from the boss again and again.

At higher level, you die very easily, and enemies keep getting spongier, which means when playing alone, if you have to change cover during a boss fight it's very easy to die. That combined with not feeling well, just annoyed me too much so decided to quit.

No updates on Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed and Pokémon Pokopia this week.

Got hooked into the Tomodachi Life train. It brings the kind of non-involvement and casual play I need right now.

Oooh, how is it?

[–] brunox@feddit.cl 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

it has a weird, very japanese sense of humour, but very enjoyable. I don't enjoy making random miis, but the game has a "assisted" mii creastion tool that makes that less of a pain.

You can get very fun dialogues by inserting not-so-random prompts. And you can make things "happen" but also just watch while doing other stuff. I find it so far very enjoyable, and not very repetitive.

I've seen it being compared to The Sims, Animal Crossing or Pokopia. It's much more hands off than the first, and you do barely any interactivity in contrast to AC or Pokopia. Kinda like a movie you make an interaction every once in a while.

Interesting. Thanks for the info!

Bad things: the game does not allow me to share the pictures, or video captures. I understand the reason but not being able to (easily) share funny interactions with my bf is something I definitely don't fancy.

Oh, that's a weird decision. I would think it would work well for a game like this.

[–] brunox@feddit.cl 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It is perfect for a game like this but I guess the freedom you have in prompts that may make your miis say questionable stuff which might work as comedy as in the picture that follows but also may be seen as discrimination when out of context.

It's Rupaul so it's fine

Example, RuPaul mii saying "I was just thinking about homophobia too!"

Ah, yeah, Nintendo is usually very careful about user generated stuff.
