Have fun with Tears of the Kingdom! It took me about 100 hours and three months to beat!

Games Beaten
-Strikers 1945 II (Switch)
*Special Update*
-Hades (Switch)
I marked Hades beaten in July but I kept playing it and finished the narrative arc of the story (beating it ten times, basically). It was really good! It had a fairly satisfying conclusion while leaving a narrative reason why you can keep playing. And there is still plenty more to do! I can see myself popping it in for a quick run attempt every now and then.
Games Bought
August is a birthday month in our house and, as such, there were some gifted games. My oldest son got not only Mario Golf: Super Rush (Switch), which he had asked for, but also an actual N64 with Mario Party 3 and Super Smash Bros. (his cousin got one a year and a half ago and he has wanted his own ever since). He was so surprised and excited! And speaking of excited, I was finally able to get The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Switch)—more on that later! Lastly, I picked up Death's Door (PS5) from the month's PS+ offerings. It's an isometric action game with a cool art style and very good reviews.
Games Being Played
-The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Switch)
I've only played maybe an hour and a half and am still in the opening area but the game seems pretty good. Shows promise
-Destiny 2 (PS5)
A new season has begun! Thematically it is quite different from the last season, though this one's seasonal activities are both for three-man fireteams, whereas last season had one three-man activity and one six-man. Since we often have four people playing, it's a little frustrating in that way but seems fun so far.
-Depixtion (Switch)
My progress has slowed considerably due to the size of the puzzles but I'm still plugging away most nights before sleeping.
-Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate (Switch)
Let me tell you, folks. There is a monster called the Deviljho and the enraged hyper version is a total &%$# but one of the guys I play with is crafting its armor set and we keep fighting this thing again. And again. And again. O_O
