I picked up the Borderlands bundle not too long ago so I’m having a nostalgic blast with that.

maybe starting Tears of the Kingdom, been trying stay away from spoiler, idk what to expect, lol
Not feeling motivated to try anything new, so will continue rotting playing Mario Kart 🥲
It happens. There are times when you don't want to play anything new, and Mario Kart is kind of an eternal game.
Do you have the booster pack or just playing the original courses?

Etrian Odyssey HD. It's been far too long since I've been absolutely ruined by an unfortunate FOE encounter, so looking forward to working through the rerelease of the series.
I have heard so much about Etrian Odyssey, but never had a 3DS to didn't get to play the original ones.
How does the HD collection compare to the original release? And how has it aged?
The gameplay loop is pretty faithful to the original as far as I remember (it's been a few years). I did notice a few differences compared to the Untold version of 1 which threw me for a loop (they added a "hint" system in Etrian Odyssey Untold to give you an audio cue that there is a hidden passageway nearby, which is absent in this version and the original DS version).
The map controls are a bit awkward and unintuitive for me, at least so far. I imagine they're more intuitive on PC with a mouse, but it's not that big a deal.
As far as how it's aged: the only thing which really makes it feel a bit aged to me is the rather high random encounter rate. If you're used to more recent dungeon crawlers like this, they have fewer, more meaningful encounters on average; the EO series has a lot of simpler encounters that are there to drain your resources, and to make it a bit of a gamble about whether you can avoid the FOE who's chasing you. It's not bad, but it's something to consider.

Resident Evil 1 for Gamecube.
I've been playing Gamecube games lately. I finished Paper Mario recently. Amazing game
Nice! I have been meaning to get back into Resident Evil games, with the remakes, but was afraid the first one may not have aged well. How are you enjoying it?
The game looks good on the Gamecube. I was actually very impressed with how good it looked considering it's age. The controls haven't aged well of course, but everyone knows that. I'm slowly starting to get used to it

Disco Elysium. Porting a game with such a PC centric interface to Switch was an interesting choice, but I'm glad that they went with it. Fantastic game!
