Nope. They push the yeerks off of Earth, and then chase them out into space

As someone who read all 54 core books last year, this is factually incorrect

I’m taking a break from Animal Crossing to try and finally finish Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch. We’ll see how far I get this time. It’s got a lot of classic RPG feel that I really love, and the Ghibli animated cutscenes are gorgeous, but I’m really not used to having to “watch” my games, so we’ll see.

Continuing with my wizard’s island in Animal Crossing, although I’m more just putting my daily time in right now. I finally worked up the drive to continue on my Minecraft chateau build, so that’s eating most of my creative energies right now.

I own and have played the Gameboy remakes a few times. I would say going 1-2-3 shows the progression of game mechanic development really well - each feels like a refinement of the previous with some fresh new ideas added in. Additionally, though it’s a fairly loose tie , the story across the 3 of them is related. That being said, though, I believe 2 is pretty widely considered to be the worst game in the entire franchise, so… Your mileage may vary. It is admittedly the one I’ve played least, and I probably haven’t picked it up in the better part of 2 decades, so it’s a bit vague for me anymore.

Last weekend I just needed something simple for a while, so I finally started an Animal Crossing island on my switch lite. My wife and I have put a bunch of time into crafting an island on our original switch, so it’s been fun to start so over. I forgot just how slow moving the game is, though. 😛 My plan for the island is to keep it standard fantasy themed - my house will be a wizard tower on a hill, amidst a dense forest. There will also be a “secret” fruit forest that you have to quest for. All the houses and buildings will be located in a single, village-like area with some farms

Still running around in BotW. I finally beat all of the divine beasts, and am just about to finish up the Champions’ Ballad DLC. After that I’ll do some quest clean up, some dragon hunting (need to get the Wild gear up to max), and then I suppose it’ll finally be time to storm a castle.

Pokemon - I love the whole series for what it is, but if I had to pick a favorite I would probably go with Heart Gold.

Wind Waker - I was late to Zelda games, and this was the first I ever beat. The whole feel of the game still keeps it as my favorite - it’s a lot of light-hearted fun, with gorgeous visuals and fantastic music, but still tells a story that feels grave and important.

I think I shall boot Breath of the Wild back up, and see if I can’t finish soon-ish. I got about half-way through during the Christmas/New Year’s holiday break, but then got distracted by a restart of the Minecraft server I play on. :-P

While it never got much past the concept phase, I think it would be fun to play a circle of stars druid as a magical girl. I was thinking this ancient elven man who learned a bit of the druidic magics of his people, but was always more fascinated with the stars. One day he connected with a group of gnomes who invented a flying machine that could take them to the moon, and immediately signed up for the trip. When he got there, he discovered a moon goddess that had been trapped there. They hit it off famously, he offered to help free her, and she turned him into a knight of sorts, giving him the transformation ability. When he transforms, he turns into this young, bubbly, vivacious eleven woman with crazy armor and the standard anime oversized weapon that is based on which form he transformed into. She still has all the same memories, ideas and goals, but with a completely different personality. It would be pretty entertaining.
