A busy week, didn't get to play anything over the weekdays.
Just played God of War: Ragnarok over the weekend. Some nice story elements.
Plan to play it more over the weekend, not sure how close I am to the end.
If I get time, would like to finish Pikmin 1 over the week.
No plan for anything else, until I finish one of these two.
What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

Gematsu recently sat down with Eternal Anima producer Makoto Shioda and development director Katsuhisa Higuchi to discuss Marvelous‘ newly announced turn-based RPG.
Reached day 14 of Pikmin 1.
I was stuck on a particular place for couple of days cause I didn't realise you can take as many bombs as you want from the "cans". I thought you can only pick the ones that are outside.
A door needed 6 bombs but there were only 4 bombs outside, so had been trying to bring them from far away and having trouble with that. Later realised you can just throw in the Pikmin and they will go in and bring out a bomb. Still not sure if there are infinite bombs or there were just 2 extra hidden inside.
Cleared the third area but lost majority of my pikmin, so went back to first area for a day and "farmed" some pikmin, back to 100+ for all three types. Time to enter the fourth area next.
Played some more God of War: Ragnarok.
I have unlocked more skills so enjoying the combat more now. Blades of Chaos are also pretty fun to use. I didn't use them too much in the first game, and was ignoring them mostly here too, but having fun with them now.
The relationship between Kratos and Atreus has also changed. Atreus has reached the rebellious teenage phase, and apparently god teenagers aren't much different from human teenagers.
There are also many easter eggs, for instance you collect these poems throughout the game, and each poem is about a PlayStation franchise. I didn't realise that at first, thinking they are just random collectibles, but it became obvious after a few.
Looking forward to how the story progresses.
Finished Monster Hunter Wilds. Or at least saw the credits roll. The final monster Zoh Shia wasn't that difficult. The most difficult one had to be Rathalos. Rest weren't that bad.
There should still be a ton of game left, I think we have only covered a small part, but let's see.
It's also coming to Switch 2. I think Prologue Demo was just released or is about to release in a few days. Right now I am wondering if I should double dip and switch to Switch 2 version of the game. Or I can just finish it on PS and get Monster Hunter Rise on Switch, but I am not sure I would like to play two Monster Hunter games back to back.
Also played couple of hours of Arc Raiders. I have been playing it here and there with a friend, and they announced a beta PvE mode for this weekend so I went in to try that. I am not a fan of PvP and have been hoping for a pure PvE mode since the start, so very happy with this. Hope they make it a permanent addition. They also released a major update, Frozen Trail, so exploring it a bit too.
Will probably play it some more over the weekend too. Want to make use of this PvE weekend as much as I can.

My schedule is a bit messed up, so don't have much game time. Just played a bit on weekend.
Started God of War: Ragnarok. With the next game coming out in January, it's the perfect time to catch up to the series.
I have only played a few hours, but having fun with it. Combat feels a bit less exciting than the first one, probably cause it's just more of the same. The novelty and feel of summoning back the axe, which I absolutely loved in the first game, has worn off. It's still fun, just not as fun. The story is interesting though, and looking forward to how things go.
Played couple more "days" of Pikmin 1. I have cleared the first two areas completely now, and just have two items remaining in the third area. Should be done in a day. Haven't visited the fourth area yet, will go there after getting both these items.
All other games are paused at the moment.
