Summary
Started the Legion Timewalking Campaign, completed the Battle for Broken Shore scenario, started with Class Hall Order campaign quests and reached level 16.

Thoughts
I think I made a good decision to level up with the Legion campaign. I love the class fantasy aspect of the Order Hall and the artifact quests. Too bad this never has been followed through with later expansions. Too bad the early game is a real pushover. Despite the crappy gear, I am ploughing through enemies like it's nothing. I wish there was a bit more need for crowd control, buffing and debuffing even at this stage.

Overall Progress
Completed the Exile's Reach campaign and reached level 16.

Summary
Made my way to the Hateno Village Research Lab, collected the Camera Rune and restored the Great Fairy Cotera.

Thoughts
I'm really enjoying exploring Hyrule again. There's just so many little things to find that you constantly feel like you're making progress, even during short play sessions. The characters are also very charming, helping you connect with the world they live in.

Traversing Hyrule and discovering various kinds of secrets is still as fun as ever. The main quest isn't that compelling yet, but I guess that kind of fits in with the structure of the game. After 100 years, what do a few more days matter in the grand scheme of things? Thankfully this doesn't hinder the fun in anyway.

Overall Progress
Completed 5 Main Quests
Completed 9 Side Quests
Completed 9 Shrines
Collected 46 Korok Seeds

Summary
Started a new character (Galdorias, human mage on the European Argent Dawn server) and completed the Exile's Reach campaign and reached level 11.

Thoughts
I haven't played a significant amount of World of Warcraft since the Legion expansion ended. Battle for Azeroth and Shadowlands couldn't grab me at all. Dragonflight seemed promising, but the announcement of the World Soul saga really piqued my interest again. I decided to make a fresh start in the world of Azeroth and get to grips with the changes of the past few years before the release of The War Within. The Exile's Reach is a fun and quick way to get into the swing of things. I have not yet decided how I'm going to level up to where the game allows me to access the Dragonflight content, but I'm leaning towards Legion for now.

Overall Progress
Completed the Exile's Reach campaign and reached level 11.

Good to see my skills are still intact despite a short break. Consistency is still getting better and I even managed to procure a new high score.

Made my way to Kakariko Village, while collecting tons of goodies along the way, and talked to Impa.

Summary
Scored 252,864 points on the A-Type mode and cleared up to and including level 9-high 5 on the B-type mode.

Thoughts
Again I'm getting more consistent, now regularly scoring over 200,000 points on the A-Type mode. It's easier to get "in the zone" now which prevents panicking when the game starts giving you multiple bad pieces in a row.

Overall Progress
A-Type high score: 252,846
B-Type highest cleared: level 9-high 5

Summary
Scored 228,008 points on the A-Type mode.

Thoughts
I finally got over 200,000 points on the A-Type mode again and I can now consistently score over 160,000 points. Still quite a bit off from my all time high score, but the improvements are clearly visible.

Overall Progress
A-Type high score: 228,008
B-Type highest cleared: level 2-high 2

Summary
Scored 188,905 points on the A-Type mode and cleared up to level 2-high 2 on the B-type mode.

Thoughts
As I thought, being a bit safer has raised my points ceiling quite considerably. I can now consistently score more than 100,000 points on the A-Type mode, but it's not good enough to pierce that 200,000 barrier just yet.

Overall Progress
A-Type high score: 188,905
B-Type highest cleared: level 2-high 2

Summary
Scored 140,859 points on the A-Type mode and cleared up to level 1-high 3 on the B-type mode.

Thoughts
I'm always in for a game of classic Tetris, but it seems I'm a currently a bit rusty. I need to play it a bit more safe when nearing halfway the screen next time to crack at least 200,000 points on the A-Type mode.

Overall Progress
A-Type high score: 140,859
B-Type highest cleared: level 1-high 3

Summary
Completed the final shrine on the Great Plateau and collected the Cyronis Rune. Activated the Dueling Peaks Tower on my way to Kakariko Village and unlocked the Sheika Sensor.

Thoughts
While I still think the Great Plateau is a great tutorial area, I'm very glad to have the Paraglider again. It makes traversing Hyrule so much more fun.

Overall Progress
Completed 2 Main Quests
Completed 5 Shrines
Collected 25 Korok Seeds

Summary
Started a replay on Normal Mode. Cleared three shrines on the Great Plateau and collected the Magnesis, Bomb and Statis runes.

Thoughts
Coming back to this game feels like going back to a vacation spot you've spent a lot of time at before, but you know you're always in for a good time. The Great Plateau also remains a great "hidden" tutorial. Really excited to continue!
