I wasn't excited about the dungeons in Pikmin 2 and I'm sure that contributed to why it's the Pikmin game I didn't finish, but I played the Pikmin 4 demo and didn't feel the same about them there. I do prefer the overworld parts more, but liked the puzzles I found in caves too.
I've enjoyed the video games, so I'd be interested in hearing how you like the board game when you get it.
There's a few options for me, but I'm personally most excited for 7th Citadel after finishing all of 7th Continent over the past few years.
A runner up would be the first expansion for Ark Nova in the fall.
I have my gaming computer hooked to my TV and running Chimera OS. Makes it easy to use with just a controller.
I backed this game and haven't played it yet, but I don't inherently believe AI assisted content is a bad thing. As long as it's well curated. Guess I'll find out what I think about it once I get around to playing it.
I really want to like this game. I like the ideas behind an open mystery/detective game, but I played the demo during steam next fest and spent most my time just learning the ropes. It didn't feel as fun as I hoped. As someone who has played more, what has made it a fun detective game for you?
If playing lighter systems(ex. gameboy) it can last 2-3 hours. Emulating playstation is likely the most demanding for it and would last only about an hour. It's hard to make something small while also making it last long on battery, but I think it does really well for what it is.
I often use my Funkey S when emulating. https://www.funkey-project.com/
