What are you playing this weekend? 2025-03-14
Not much of a difference from last week. Didn't really get much play time, and what I did, spent pretty much all on Phoenix Wright.
Still playing Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Trials and Tribulations .
Just started the 5th case, which is apparently the last one. Loved all the cases till now, and the last one seems to be a great conclusion.
3rd case was really fun, at least the beginning.
spoiler
Also, I really hate Dahlia now.
Dropped Just Cause 3.
Liberated the first province, and most of the second province, but the difficulty level of remaining bases increased a lot. Many elite level enemies and lot more enemies. Doesn't make the game too difficult, but I was just playing it for mindless blowing up stuff, so when I couldn't do that anymore, didn't want to continue playing it.
Should just get EDF for this mindless killing stuff.
Started Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
I wasn't planning to start it anytime soon, dunno why I did.
I am only about 4-5 hours in, and for now it feels "Dragon Age" to me. Maybe it will change when I play more, but the level design and characters interaction etc. feel similar to Inquisition. Character models and visual styles are of course different, as well as combat, but playing the game feel like I am playing a sequel to Inquisition, not some other random game.
Plan to keep playing it as a secondary game.
On a separate note, Xenoblade Chronicles X got preloaded! Can't wait for the release!
That's all on my end. Unless I forgot some game again. What about all you? What have you been playing?

I put Avowed down last week after finishing up the first map- no reason, I’ve enjoyed every minute of it, but for some reason am finding it hard to pick back up again.
Been screwing around with Civilization 7 this week, dipping my toes into Pikmin 4 (still not sure how it suits me but I like its uniqueness), and playing through Final Fantasy VI on my retro handheld.
How are you liking Civ 7? People generally are annoyed by every new Civ, until they release a bunch of DLCs to add various items back. Hearing some negative stuff about 7 too.
I don’t quite know yet. I’ve played every Civ game since I started on the first with my dad when I was about 11 years old- and I’ve loved every iteration for different reasons.
I’m approaching this one kind of the same way as always- I’m playing it kind of leaning on what I know about the franchise as a whole rather than trying to understand every more granular system, because a lot of things change while all the patches start rolling in and the expansions release. I play each new game sort of the same way I played the previous one, learning the new systems by making mistakes.
It’s early enough that I still don’t really understand most of the new systems- I will say that I am enjoying it just about as much as I enjoyed 5 and 6 at launch, but less than I enjoyed 4 at launch. Fully tricked out 5 and 6 are both excellent as far as I’m concerned, and I’m thinking this one has potential to get there.
Having said all that, I absolutely HATE the “Civ-switching” mechanic. It very much takes me out of the game. We’ll see how that develops.
