What are you playing?

[BumbleBee]

Yup (100% synced AC, AC2, ACB, ACR, AC3, ACL; haven't played any after Liberation yet because they're too expensive ), and I play with Xbox 360 controller. The mouse is wonky in terms of targeting although there are some situations (like towards the end of AC2 during that festival) where I would switch to the mouse to first-person aim a shot.

Black Flag is good. you will probably like the treasure maps and overworld. the protagonist isn't terrible either.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

Isn't hard to beat the protagonist of AC3.

I'm achievement hunting in This War of Mine (only two left but one of them is highly random and requires starting a new game if you don't get it).

I'm also wondering where the !@#$ my R9 290X is. I'm going to have to call PowerColor on Monday and raise hell. They received it on December 4, 2015, and they promised to ship me one "this week," over a week ago.

I've put about 4 or 5 more hours into Dreamfall: Chapters. I'm enjoying it...ALOT.

As most of you know, it's an adventure game that continues Zoe's story from Dreamfall: The longest Journey, so it's not heavy on action. The graphics are excellent, and the screenshots seem to have lost half their fidelity in the making. Although point and click on objects and people for actions and conversations, it is a complete WASD movement game.

The story and plot are deep, and well written and definitely have me hooked! For being a community-funded game, they snagged really good actors; the voice-acting is top-notch!

You switch back and forth between playing Zoe and Kian (The Apostle). Zoe starts out in a coma, from and you need to escape dreamland get her out of the coma. Her portion so far has all played out in her real world, meeting the various people in her life for work and going to Therapy.

Kian's portion has been the most fun and has occupied 2/3 of what I have played so far. He ends up in the resistance, and his portion of the story involves a lot of choices, which will mean consequences in further chapters.

@Ferrum Master: screenies!

 

[FordGT90Concept]

Got all achievements in This War of Mine. Then I started playing Not A Hero...11 hours later, the game is finished with all achievements. That game was a lot better than I was expecting.

Hmm...I'm kind of thinking Terraria now and catch up on some recorded TV...

 

[rtwjunkie]

I continued to be amazed at the in-depth writing, character development, and voice-acting in Dreamfall: Chapters! I wish I had not let it sit on my backlog since it released in November, 2014. Maybe it was for the best though, since it's been an episodic release, as a series of books. Book 4 was released a few months ago, and I believe Book 5 comes out soon. I'm partway into Book 3. I'll try to put up more screenshots tonight without doing any spoilers in case anyone wants to play it yet.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

So I just finished The Last Remnant and holy crap:
37 hours: write a "Not Recommended" review complaining about how the combat sucks and the game is 99% combat-based.
38 hours: start using Cheat Engine (unlimited health, unlimited action points, enemy health reduced to 10) so combat is literally smashing "A" with turbo on and automatic QTEs enabled.
65 hours: finish game, revise review.

I'm definitely playing Oceanhorn next.

Oh, and my graphics card should be showing up Tuesday which will be a 400% increase in performance from the R7 360 I'm using now.

 

[bubbleawsome]

Maybe I should try terraria again. I burnt out on it last time.

 

[scevism]

Im on Wolfenstein the old blood at the moment and a bit of grid 2 autosport.

 

[GreiverBlade]

played a bit of Giant: Citizen Kabuto (the most fun game i ever had on my Athlon XP build ahah the quotes from that game are pure fun), Aquanox (well at last they have a 1080p option) and Aquanox 2, i forgot how Aquanox 2 was beautiful ... specially in 1080p and all detail to max, at the time i had those 2 jewels my rig was not ... really up to the task

also i am glad i've kept my GCK full playthrough save, on one of my 1st 512mb stick, heck still working

feels like Descent under water ... just as i remembered it

Also on list to buy on GoG if i don't find the CD-rom i had from it: Archimedian Dinasty ...

 

[FordGT90Concept]

Finished Oceanhorn (all achievements) and beat Rogue Trooper. Now I'm playing the GOG version of Act of War: High Treason.

I have the R9 390 so there is nothing stopping me from playing Witcher 3 but I'm leaning towards waiting until the last expansion is out for it.

Edit: Apparently Blood and Wine got bumped to as late as June. Maybe I shouldn't wait...

Why? Unless you play 20 hours a day, you'll just be finishing the main game or the first expansion by the time the second comes out.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

I anticipate I'd finish the Witcher 3 game in 1-2 weeks and the first expansion in a few days. It is entirely conceivable I'll replay it (I finished Witcher 2 no less than four times) though so overall, probably two months.

I like the complete experience where the game is truly finished which is why I can stand waiting.

 

[rtwjunkie]

You can consider it finished. The expansions are entirely optional stories that are not part of the main story, other than being set in the same world. Yes, they will add extra area to the maps, but are deliberately not meant to conflict with the main world.

 

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

Playing Worms 3D and the worms have got Welsh accents...


" What you doing Mun ?"

 

[Octopuss]

I am not playing anything out of pure frustration from too many games bought this year and despite being unemployed, not enough time to give them all any serious time
Wasteland 2 DC, Dying Light, Cities Skylines, and today Civilization 5 and Civ: Beyond Earth.
I do play Battlefield 4 semi-regularly though.

I seem to have hit an impasse with tomorrow's review title. For some reason my entire review is 100% completely opposite to what every single other news outlet has pushed out, and I don't understand, because the game genuinely feels catastrophically awful in every way.

Wow, that's rough! I guess this add credence to what I said the other day about you not sniffing glue or being paid off for reviews!?

Be honest.

(or take a bribe, like the others did... )

 

[GoldenX]

League of Legends trough Wine over Archlinux with the open source drivers.

Dragons Dogma?

 

[Red_Machine]

Poker Night at the Inventory and Poker Night 2 on and off at the moment.

did you ever play Starbound?

Ah, then maybe I should...right after High Treason stops kicking my ass.

Someone didn't line your pockets, that's why. I feel the same way about Transistor.

did you ever play Starbound?

Terraria is the best in that genre. Burning out in Terraria will inevitably lead to an even faster burn out in Starbound, Dig or Die, Signs of Life, Edge of Space, etc.

Giants Citizen Kabuto was amazing fun! I am currently playing through Baldur's Gate EE then importing my character into BG2 SoA. Should take awhile.
