Playing Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition. Not much new here, doing some side content while waiting for FrontNav minerals to give me what I need. Did some side quests, also finally found the dog, so was able to do tons of heart-to-heart.
Finally got the required mineral last night and went to start Chapter 7, when I realised I haven't surveyed Oblivia enough! facepalm I remember checking it before and was sure I meet the required number, so I either it read the requriement wrong or my survey percentage wrong.
Anyways, with Skell, it shouldn't take too long to do it. Also, got all my characters to level 30, so can buy Skells for them. Haven't done that yet though, will do it soon.
The Surge time was pretty productive, completed the third area, and got some good upgrades, then went back to second area (that's how the game flows), and now am stuck at the boss.
I am bit confused about this boss. It has two phases, I have gotten down first one now, can do it without losing much health, or sometimes, any health. The second phase has 4 robo-arms on the side walls, which keep attacking you when you are attacking the mail pillar / boss. You can destroy those 4 arms, but if kill the boss without destroying the arms, you get a very good weapon.
So, that's where I am stuck, I want to kill the boss without destroying those arms, to get that weapons, but I am not sure if I am good enough to keep track of 5 different things and attack the boss while dodging them. Going to try a few more times, if it didn't work out, will just destroy the arms.
Also got Street Fighter 6
I am more of a casual fighting game player, but still enjoy them every now and then, with a soft spot for Street Fighter and Soulcalibur games. So, just got it to play few rounds every now and then. Thinking about seeing if I can get anywhere in ranked, but not too concerned about it.
Ilandar mentioned PlanetSide 2 last week, and after looking it up, I wanted to give it a try. Plan to check it out over the weekend. I am not much of a MMO fan, so not sure how much I will actually play, but want to take a look.
What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?
There are some discussions online about whether or not the Switch 2 will support switch 1 games in their docked profile but in handheld mode. For example, Metroid Prime runs on 1080p60 docked and 720p60 in handheld on Switch 1. On Switch 2, people are wondering if in handheld Metroid Prime could run in 1080p60 or it will be limited to 720p60.
Nintendo has not confirmed this one way or another yet. It may even be the case that in handheld the S2 would upscale the 720p image to 1080p instead of running it in 1080p native. We will have to wait and see how it all works
Ah, like how PS5 Pro can basically have PS5's Graphics and Performance mode at same time.
Yeah, that would be pretty neat. I try to stay away from rumours and leaks, so haven't heard anything about it. Keeping the fingers crossed.
Yeah, it's less of a rumor/leak and more of an open question that Nintendo has yet to address. Either way, the bigger screen will be fantastic
