Weekend report: I played some games! Maybe not as much as I would have liked but that’s ok.
I played a couple hours of Bit.Trip Rerunner. I finished the original Runner levels, and now I’m making my way through the rest of the bonus levels. This is a truly wonderful experience and I think I might have to consider it for my personal GOTY.
I made good progress in Crystal Legacy. I now have seven badges, the radio tower quest is complete, and I made some changes to my team. I’m now rolling with
- Scizor
- Houndoom
- Lanturn
- Hitmontop
- Xatu
- Pupitar
I had to swap out Kadabra and Noctowl for Xatu and Hitmontop. Now I’ve got a team of all Johto mons, and all of them are brand new to me (as in, I’ve never used them before) so that’s fun. Now I’ve got just one badge to go before the Elite 4! Which in regular Crystal means I’m over halfway done with the game, but in this version there’s a lot more than that left to do.
And finally, I played a grand total of twenty minutes of TLOU Part 1. All weekend I struggled with actually turning it on and playing it. Not that I’m not enjoying the gameplay, because I am, but I hadn’t played it in a week, and it’s so much easier to start playing Pokemon or something where I don’t have to feel dread and anxiety that a clicker is gonna jump out at me or something. But anyway, I did play a tiny bit last night, so hopefully I’ve gotten over that anxiety hump and can start making real progress again this week.
