Hey everyone. Hope you have had a good weekend and are enjoying your summer. This week I've been out of town but I spent a lot of time in airports so I dusted off my Gameboy emulator on my phone and saw i had a Pokémon emerald save that was still before the first gym leader. I now have 3 badges and full steam ahead on the 4th. Hope you all have a great week!

I got Saros, and the incident at galley house. Saros is like returnal, with maybe too many mechanics (dodge, shield, shield to charge a big gun, but shield only works on some bullets).

Incident at galley house is the next game from the team that remixed roottrees are dead, and they remixed this game as well. It's another fun detective game. Not quite sure what I'm doing, just seeing scenes and using them to find more scenes and slowly attach pictures to names. It's quite satisfying.

I finished Saros so if you need any help with it let me know. You can always use the modifiers to make things easier. I kept a few on permanently to keep things from getting even more overly annoying. The real key is to keep making forward progress so you can unlock the abilities and additional weapons that the story provides. Sadly, its not as good as Returnal, but its pretty close. The story is better but the gameplay and fundamentals aren't as fleshed out as they should be. I'm holding onto my copy in hopes of a DLC.

Yeah my hands are not what they used to be so I've got the aim assistance bumped up. But long drawn out fights tend to leave my hands pretty sore. Action games are probably going to disappear from my future it seems.

Almost got through the first boss, just trying to get the hang of dodging, shielding and general positioning to avoid the bullets

Yeah getting used to using the shield took me a good long while.

If you're having hand problems are you doing your hand and wrist stretches before gaming? using any wrist or hand braces?

If not, you should. They help a great deal.
