Just TotK. The only other game I play on Switch is Chicken Horse with friends. Unfortunately, I have a thesis to finish.
How far along are you in TotK? And how are you liking it?
I don't pay attention to party games much so never looked into it, but Chicken Horse look like a very fun party game. Will make a note of it, if I ever need a party game.
What are you writing a thesis on? If you don't mind sharing?
I don't remember how many hours, but quite a few. I've done three temples and most of the quests you get from townsfolk before/after the temples, minus the Gerudo region (haven't been there yet). I enjoy it a lot. I'm not a huge Nintendo person, but I quite liked BotW, and naturally TotK is a great follow-up.
Chicken Horse is awesome and very repayable with friends as you unlock more characters and places. It takes some time to unlock more stuff (kinda like Smash), but we don't find it too boring or tedious in the process.
Broadly, my thesis is in ecology of an iguana species. Nearly done, but trying not to just play games all day, heh.
Gland you are enjoying TotK. TotK and BotW are some of the best modern games, no matter which console you generally play on.
You can check the hours in your profile. For first 10 days after starting the game, it shows "Stated X days ago", after that it shows you your hours in increments of 5, "80 hours or more", "85 hours or more".
Wow, personally, I am not a huge fan of iguana species, but good luck with the thesis. And yeah, gaming is great, but it shouldn't effect your normal life. So, keep working on that thesis, then you can take a break and play all the games. 😀
