    Clearly not retro, but what modern games/systems is everyone playing?

    I've been on a path to collect all 900 seeds in Zelda BOTW. Usually hop on and farm some Lynels and grag some seeds. Also recently started playing Horizon Zero Dawn (late to the game, I know) and it's absolultely great.

    Not playing anything modern.

    I have a RetroPi machine in a NesPi case that sat around for a long time ...
    I switched it on 2 times now ;)

    And I bouht a PAP KIII+ which is a 40 USD 4 inch portable emulator that is compatible with most Dingoo A320 dingux executables.
    Need to play around with it soon ...

    I tend to play my other systems more than the Retropie, but it gets use here and there.

    Looks nice.
    If you have some time maybe you can write a bit about it after you received it.

    I also have a RS-97 which runs linux, but also has a custom linux build that you can use: https://obscurehandhelds.com/2018/02/opendingux-and-gmenu2x-for-the-retrogame-r s-97/

    Hey NuSkooler! Ive got a nintendo switch + Zelda BOTW but I havent found all the korok seeds yet, finding all 900 would be INSANE! Ive found

    I was hitting it pretty hard for a bit, think I last left off around 600 seeds or so. 900 is yea... nuts. Taking a break for a bit haha

    Got quite far in Horizon, but just have had very little time lately due to work
    + summer, but plan on going back to that. Beautiful game and fun to play. I play it kinda like you described -- the sneak approach (it's one of the approaches you can take to building a tree/gear in the game).

    Also, I just discovered Darkest Dungeon. I haven't played it yet, but it looks great and I think I'll drop it onto Steam in a few minutes actually: https://store.steampowered.com/app/262060/Darkest_Dungeon/

    Pretty slick looking RPG I think, and it has very positive reviews.

    I've played some Horizon Zero Dawn on the base PS4 and it looks amazing. I spend most of my time in No Man's Sky, though. I started on PS4 in 2016 but quickly built a gaming PC in order to play it at higher resolution and framerate.

    I have a No Man's Sky blog online, as well. Check it out: https://nmsspot.com

    Cheers!

    I've been playing Doom: Eternal. It's INTENSE. I think it could be better than
    the original DOOM games.

    I play ceTekken 7q1 constantly. I'm going back through ceResident Evil 7q1 in VR mode and it's amazing. Other than that, all of the games I'm playing are retro- it really is rare for me to play modern-day stuff.
