What are you playing on your Switch?

Keeping at it on the Shantae: Half Genie Hero DLC, Pirate Queen's Quest. I've got everything from the main levels and was attempting the final one when "The software was closed because an error occurred". So that was unsettling and, as we know, I much prefer to be settled. Much, much prefer.

What's your opinion of this DLC? I'm well up for more Half Genie Hero, it's absolute class. But is there much to it? Is it all new?

It's not good news, Cappa. Barring slight differences in the locations of some of the trinkets, the levels remain identical. The difference is Risky Boots herself: her skillset is different enough to shake things up. A little. In essence it's £9 for an extra character to play through the game with. I sound dismissive but she is fun... once she's powerful enough to cope with the fact that you can do the levels in any order.

I've been playing loads of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. It's hooked me in a way which I never expected it to. It is absolutely packed with content and I feel like I've still got loads left to do. Obviously, I don't think this will appeal to you at all if you don't have a passing interest in Dragon Ball, but if you do I think this is worth it. If you do pick it up, let me know as there's plenty of missions you can do in multiplayer - weirdly, that part reminds me of Monster Hunter in that they're doable solo, easier in multiplayer - so it'd be awesome to play with somebody.

I am free of the curse of Mega Picross. Now it's back to good old regular Picross before coming back to Golf Story.

I kick tye balls. I hit monster with hander l. Wire we eedtsrsuny .rhud I'd my life.

Too Much.

That felt like an appearance of Sobera, Drunka's drunk alter ego. Sadly, there's no way to be sure...

Are you proper loving Monster Hunter, sir?

I can tell you he is as our MHXX session on Wednesday night was loads of fun.

A little game called King Oddball for review. [/show-off] It's an Angry Birds-like game, with all the joys and pitfalls of that particular genre (i.e. were you really skilful there or did you just get lucky?), but it's pretty good, even so. It's also only about £4.

Bits of Thimbleweed Park, too. Now there's an oddball game...

It is indeed! What chapter you up to, Zero?

(I'm playing SMO, if you weren't aware.)

I am also playing SMO.

I really ought to be playing more MHXX, but I'm growing increasingly hyped for World and finding myself wanting to play XX less and less as a consequence.

The first one, I'm afraid! I've rattled through SMO and got a game in for review, as well as pottering about with Layton's Mystery Journey. I feel like it's time will come soon.

I really should play more MHXX but with the two weeks wait I had compared to you guys, big titles come out and now World is just around the corner.

I get the feeling we won't see G rank in MHXX with all these great games coming out, even though I've seen Valfalk in the solo quests I really want to kick on with the MP side of things.

I mean... we kinda have to at some point as we'll be doing a Valfalk episode of Mash, surely?

True, but it'd be nice if we have all fought him more than once before then to get a proper feel for what we like or dislike about him ye'know? It also just feels like ages since we had a proper MHXX session.

I'm not planning to stop hunting with you guys any time soon, and its still 2-and-a-half months until World/ I go to Japan. The G Rank dream lives!
I've only given up on 4U G Rank as when we do get a chance to get stuck into some hunting, I'd rather be playing XX on my lovely Switch.

Finally got on the Shovel Knight train and it's bloody tremendous, incredibly well put together and somehow manages to feel retro and new at the same time. The challenge is spot on too, difficult in places but only because I'm making the mistakes.

Another convert! And you've got the other campaigns available to play through too... so lucky. Keep enjoying!

Fired up a little-known indie title called The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. I only played the first hour or so, most of which I've watched other people play, but it was enjoyable. Its showing its age, especially compared to the more advanced Witcher III or the more stylised Zelda.

Have you ever played it before, Drunka? I'll be interested to read your full thoughts on the game once you're a bit deeper into the journey.

I'm still plowing through MHXX, although the end is slowly drawing closer and closer. I've also polished off the story mode on Fire Emblem Warriors, but I'm game for more by checking out the History Mode scenarios.

I've never played any Elder Scrolls! I was living on some friends' sofa when it came out, so I've seen bits.My brother got really into the series on PC, so I've seen him play as well.

Ah, I've played a fair whack of Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim. Great series, especially if you're delving into it for the first time. It's definitely in need of a refresh, though.

But it's no

Keep being worried by things like this...
