This game has come up on Game Pass quests at least three times since I started Game Pass about a year ago. I've played it all three times. It's really grown on me. I've gotten a little farther each time. One of these days I'm going to take a stab at finishing it.

Oh boy, oh boy, it's comics day again! I found some good ones this time. I even had some Hope's Cookies too afterward. It's been a while since I did that. I was a little bit afraid of the sugar rush, but gladly it didn't happen. So let's see what I got as well as my progress with Doctor Strange Epic Collection Vol. 4.  

Ah, the Witcher games. I've always been interested but for whatever reason haven't played 1, maybe an hour of 2 and a couple of hours of 3. Since Witcher 3 is now on Xbox's Game Pass and has come up several times for rewards quests, I've dipped my feet in the Witcher waters several more times. I hope to play more, but for this blog, I thought I'd read up on the whole series and share some of it. 

I think last Sunday Farm Together broke my brain. I got so burned out redesigning my fields again that I thought I'd just quit it altogether and my whole routine of about 4 different categories of games. I decided on a "relevancy" approach and simplified it all to just one game, the newest I could find that I didn't have to pay an arm and leg for. So, I downloaded two games that looked interesting that just happen to be on Game Pass. Here they are.

I ran through my routine and again I got bogged down in Farm Together. I am making good progress though, so I think I have the end in sight. When it's done I can knock that off my list so I get more time with my main game. Anyway, here's a breakdown of the day's activities. 

Just a day of gaming with the usual titles of the last few weeks. I'll break it down.

In my recent inclusion of sports games into my regular gaming routine, I added a hockey game, NHL 20 from Game Pass. I was very tempted to add NHLPA '94, also available on Game Pass, but I wanted current players of which I know nothing because I haven't followed hockey since the Flyer's Hextall, Lindros, and the Legion of Doom back in the '90s (or was that the late '80s, I forget now). 

I tried to find some back issues to titles I used to follow but either I couldn't find issue one of their new series or they had so many confusing new series, I gave up and went with something new that intrigued me, and that was Space Bastards. 

So with the mention of Lego games in a post here, I thought I ought to get back to my plan of playing every single Lego game to completion. It's a big task. I have 24 games on my list. Some I've played before but didn't complete like Lego The Hobbit. This one, Lego Star Wars II I've actually finished before but within the Lego Star Wars Complete Saga. I figure, since I somehow own Lego Star Wars II on Xbox One, I'd start (or restart) here. 

I played this last weekend for a rewards quest and quite enjoyed it. I played for a couple of hours, a little past when I got the quest finished. It seems like a 16th or 17th-century setting but with magic and alchemy that actually works. You fight with swords and magic and complete quests that reveal more of the story through dialogs with townspeople some of which you have some choices as to how to respond.
