Gaming

A friend got a Switch 2 with Mario Kart World, so we too played that for a bit. Knockout Tour is really fun, while I didn't like that Grand Prix races have only one lap. I think the highways are better for KT since there's 6 tracks and there's more risk due to the elimination. Fun game tho not worth 80 € (or 90), nor a system seller for me.

The Switch 2 feels like a huge improvement over the original, the new joycons are much nicer and the 1080p screen looks much better. My only complaints are that the screen is an LCD without HDR (not a dealbreaker since it's good enough, but still disappointing when considering the price). The other complaint I have is the battery, as it's too small for the system. Playing Mario Kart in portable drained at least 50 % in around an hour.

I've finished Xenoblade Chronicles X DE and I kinda wish I didn't. The chapter added with the remaster was terrible, it was completely unnecessary, a waste of potential and ruined everything the original story did. It felt like the writers didn't have a plan so they just forced these 3 quests because they had to.

Still tho, the Wii U part of the game was good, as were the other DE changes, so I enjoyed it.
