Is there anyone else looking forward to the new Fantasy Life game?
I absolutely adored the original Fantasy Life on 3DS. Loved Ever Oasis, too. For some reason, I always kinda viewed the two as a pair, even though they had nothing to do with each other.
Anyhow, I read a couple months ago that there's a new Fantasy Life game coming to Switch later this year, and it really got me looking forward to it. I'm a little worried that there hasn't really been much in the way of promotion for the title, but what I've seen looks promising.
I hope to play the original game before I ever play the sequel. Whether or not I purchase the sequel will depend how I enjoyed the first game. If I can't get through enough of my 3DS backlog to get to it before the opportunity to buy the new game goes away - I may just purchase it (assuming the reviews are good) and add it to my backlog as well.
Having a family really eats into any video game time I might have had.... Someday I'll get to play these games!
Or be like me, and don't let go of anything. There are game series where I have to play more than 6-7 games to play the current game, but I am still going to play them from the start.
But I agree with you. If the game is not fun, I won't waste too much time on it. I have learned to leave the game midway if they aren't fun anyway. Not every game needs to be finished. Though if I am enjoying a game, I don't mind playing it as much as I can. Hence, playing more than half a dozen games to get to current one. 😀
Sounds like I'm (at least) already there, I've been gaming since I was a kid and can count on one hand the number of things over the years I've let go. Including all the cardboard from every game and system I purchased.
I'm also with you on your philosophy regarding finishing games. I play to play, and it doesn't matter if the game is over or I get 100% completion. And if I come across a game in my library that I don't enjoy... I still don't get rid of it, I may come back a year or two later and find that it clicks with me then. 🤷🏻
Family tends to do that. But I heard when the little ones enter teenages,you get a lot more free time. Haven't reached that stage yet myself though, so it's just anecdotal.
