Status Update: August 2025

Summer means different people having vacation at different times, so hard to group the full party. Hopefully around September things will get rolling again.
Videogames - Finished
Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
I got a Switch 2, so the first thing I did was another run of Zelda: BOTW. Only 40 hours, and not all the shrines finished yet (nor many of the secondary quests), but I got the "completed" star on the savegame, and now I can progress sporadically.
What I did was also pick up my old completed savegame, and left it nearer full completion:
I've only got to get a few more koroks to unlock the final extra shield slots, and farm two items to complete the last two armours I have not yet maxed.
I doubt that I'll ever get to 100% koroks, as it gets tiring after a while.
Videogames - Ongoing
Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom
Similar to Zelda: BOTW, I'm doing a new playthrough, although this time the completed savegame is missing a lot of content, so I expect to switch to it as soon as I catch up.
The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion - Remastered
Ongoing, not many news, other than the company that did the "remaster" clearly ported everything as it is, as the same bugs from the old Game Of The Year versions are present. Thankfully, the game is so versatile that you can escape some buggy situations by checking online for the old XBox 360 GOTY tricks/solutions.
Starfield
I just purchased it, with the DLC and all. I know it's not the greatest game, but I really liked what I saw regarding immersion and lore. Maybe it reminds me of Mass Effect in the aesthetics, but whatever the reason is, I plan to toggle between Oblivion, Zelda and this title as my main long term pseudo-RPGs for a while.

Old-School Essentials
We continue with the first campaign. As all the party members recently had a spike of intense work (we're all in the same team), we lowered the frequency of sessions, but things should be back to normal now.
Videogames - Finished
None since the last update 😬. Although I played a lot of GTA-like titles: GTA 3, GTA: Vice City, GTA: San Andreas, Mafia and Mafia 2.
Videogames - Ongoing
The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion - Remastered
Oh boy, so many memories from the past, and yet I'm enjoying it as if it was my first playthrough.
Funnily, it contains the same issues and bugs as the original, but people already came up with updated mods and fixes for everything. Here you can find the list of mods that I use.
Diablo 4
In the end, I bought the expansion heavily discounted, and I admit that it adds a decent amount of end-game content. The story advances just a few steps, but it is pleasing to watch (the 3D engine is so good and detailed) and play once or twice.
I'm now playing from time to time some of the seasons, as they at time have decent story lines (e.g. as of May, Belial has returned). Creating a new seasonal character made me try the classes I had pending, so not bad. I'm currently levelling up a werewolf-druid that goes around with another 3 companion werewolves, and it feels more of a tank than the barbarian 🤔.
Dwarf Fortress, KeeperRL, Ancient Domains of Mystery
Grouped these three, as they are in the same status: Not fully postponed, but also not actively playing them.
Earthbound
A friend recommended me to play Earthbound on the SNES "if I like Final Fantasy like titles", so I picked it up and I'm slowly starting. Such a weird beginning, but it is best to not spoil anything.
Videogames - Postponed / Discarded
Zelda BOTW and TOTK
I'm almost 100% decided to get a Nintendo Switch 2, which means I'll replay both open-world Zeldas from the beginning. So, I'll wait to have the console.
Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
The whole echoes idea is cool, but I got tired mid-way of the general gameplay. Companions have poor artificial intelligence, quite a few segments become repetitive, and while I applaud the initiative of not having Link as the main character, I got the feeling that this title is too experimental. Plus all those objects and entities you can spawn, and most of the times you'll just use over and over a tiny selection.
The Elder Scrolls: Morrowind
I bought the game and prepared my guide about how to upgrade it for modern times, but at the same time I also purchased The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion Remastered, so I've decided to play Oblivion first.
Miscellaneous
I'm doing some crafts, like this wooden flower:
