Played some more Donkey Kong Bananza, trying to collect everything in the 6th world before moving on to 7th.

I mentioned a few weeks back that I was playing Ghost of Tsushima, but then put it on back burner since I was focusing on Midnight Suns, so since that has been finished, back to being a Ghost now!

When I was around halfway through the game, I realised that there is too much side stuff and that's burning me out, so ignored everything, and just finished the story.

End Story Spoilers

The game had some really emotional moments. I didn't feel too sad about Taka, I saw it coming a mile away, but then they killed my horse! Why would they do that?

And then the ending!? After all they went through, to end up like that...

After finishing the game, didn't felt like starting another game right away, and there wasn't too much remaining for the Platinum (you don't need to 100% all collectibles), so going through the other stuff and Platinum the game.

Started Diablo IV with some friends, as it was given away as PS+ monthly game recently. If they all got bored with it (they aren't isometric / action-RPG fans), may start focusing as my next single player game, but not going to focus on it much for now, only playing it as a co-op game.

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

I've been playing Cyberpunk 2077. It's the one game I own that feels like it would definitely not work on the Switch 1. Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World are pretty looking and stuff, but they still don't feel "next generation" as much as Cyberpunk does.

The game is really fun, though it has that thing from AAA games where there's a lot of storytelling. Sometimes having long conversations in interactive cut-scenes bores me and I just want to play the game. Other than that, I'm having a really good time and I have to force myself not to play it during the week, otherwise I'll go to bed at 3am 😅 (just like it happened with DK Bananza...).

Story spoiler (after The Heist)

Yeah, that was great how they made me have a virtual best friend Jackie then killed him off and had an emotional ceremony for him... Why Jackie why?! 😭

I got the physical editions of Toaplan Arcade Collection Vol. 1 and Vol. 2. for Switch, so I'll also be checking out those games during the weekend.

I have heard great things about Cyberpunk 2077. Still have tons of games that I need to play before that though.
