Finally, weekly thread on proper time!

Another busy week, only got a few hours in the week, an hour here, an hour there. Played a bit of Demon’s Souls, a bit of Ghost of Tsushima and a bit of New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe.

In Mario, I have cleared Soda Jungle-5, but there is no way forward. Could it be because I haven’t cleared the frozen area yet? There were two paths and I went to the sea/water path and ignored the frozen one. Now I have gone back to clear that. If that doesn’t open the path forward either, will lookup the solution online.

What about all of you? What have you guys been playing?

    Just looked up all Dragon Quest Monsters games, I didn’t realize there were so many. The Dark Prince is going to be my first DQM game. Any tips?

      I haven’t played the demo so I don’t know what features are coming over, but fusion is amazing and really opens up once you can reliably get monsters up to level 20 since you get lots of skill points by then.

      Getting good monsters is just about as important as getting good skills, max one out to get an improved version on the next fusion (with some super good ones only showing up if certain combinations of skills are maxed). I don’t know if they’ll be in this game, but if you come across a way to teach class-based skills to monsters (fighter,warrior,monk,etc) they are super strong.

      If you have two monsters that you won’t be fusing with anything important, fuse them together. Getting the overall number up will help out later, and you might want to use them as skill fodder at some point or maybe you’ll stumble into a cool or unique fusion.
