I’m glad this isn’t coming immediately but is delayed. That will let me get my current list of games cleaned up. Dragon Quest Builders 2 and Fire Emblem Three Houses being back to back was really hard.
James
And I don’t mean delayed like there was an issue! Just in the general term of it not happening immediately.

I had DQB2 to play, as well, but I burned through it quick. I have about 130 hours in it now…but I don’t have any other games coming out for me in the next…two months, I think. So I’d love if the game came out sooner than later. Most of my friends are playing FE:TH right now and haven’t even gotten to DQB2 yet, so I think they’re in the same boat as you.

I’ve also burned through it, and am in the end game of just free building (have less than a handful of tablet missions left and the fishing quests). Gotta finish my castle and aqueducts!
Kikki
I finished my tablet targets and got my final tool. It’s useful, but not quite as much as I hoped. It does make some things more convenient, though. I’m currently laying the groundwork to create a town that’s inspired by the Italian town Positano. Not sure how that’ll work out, in the end…

Very excited about this and of course RF5
