Post about your day (or week) in gaming!

Talk about something recent you did in gaming! Did you have a fun time? Did something give you a spot of trouble? Post about it here.

Note: please avoid plot spoilers, especially if it's something released within the last 90 days.

I'll go first: I've been practicing some speed-run strategies in Super Metroid. Specifically I'm trying to nail down the zebetite skip in MB's room and getting consistent at it. It was rough starting a few days ago, but my current success rate is at about 60% which is much more than zero. Not sure it'd be feasible in a run, but it feels closer to being attainable than it was when I first tried it.

I've been thinking about getting good at bosses, since despite trying this I can't yet get away with 389 energy against MB2. It's all in the practice I suppose.

BattleBit Remastered is a lot of fun! So much fun that I spent like 12 hours in that game over the course of the weekend from when I picked it up Friday night through Sunday.

It's a giant multiplayer shooter game, boasting 127 vs 127 for a total of 254 players per server, which is absolutely manic (though there are options for 64 vs 64 and 32 vs 32 matches).

There's many different types of roles, but I've been enjoying a mix of the Medic, Support, and Recon classes.

I don't recall when I last played a game like this—it must have been Planetside 2 but I don't remember the last time I got into that, and I think I was on the faction which consistently lost the most (like seriously all the time lmao)

Edit 1 (17 July 2023): Uh oh I made it to rank 50
