Red Baron 1, from 1990 no less!

Playing campaign mode starting from the beginning of the war. The first few missions are fairly easy if you are playing on the German side because the synchronised gun on the Fokker Eindecker outmatches anything the Allies have.

So my pilot "Fritz von Bosch" racked up 9 planes downed and a couple of balloons thus gaining promotion to Oberleutenant. Yay!

The next missions were much harder as the Allies introduce new Neuport 17s which have synchronised guns the same as the Eindecker but are much faster, more manouverable and better climbing. Schweinhunds!

This game is still great fun if you can get over how basic the graphics are. The AI is better than in pretty much every game I've ever played, period. The novice AI pilots are pretty dopey but the veterans are much better, and the top aces are nigh on impossible to beat unless you have a better plane. On campaign mode the balance of mechanical advantage sways between the two sides as new planes are introduced as the war progresses.

I can't help but be struck that single player games havn't really improved since the 90s apart from the graphics.
If you can get over the very basic graphics I would thoroughly recommend this classic for the flight model, the AI, the enthralling campaign mode and the depth of historical accuracy.

You can get it free from a few places or if you want you can buy it from steam or gog. The download I got needs dosbox to run it.

Ah yes the only fighter game I ever cared to play. It is really nice, and the sounds ...

I was just playing Save the Date, again.

I'm not sure that Felicia can survive any of the scenarios!

Just My Opinion here - I made the mistake of purchasing Killing FLoor 2 on steam sale for $15. I am not impressed it is very boring and grindy with no loot. Haha. Why grind for nothing. At least it was only $15, but what a horrible game...IMO.

I am also riding the Hype-Train for Destiny 2!

Wolfenstein The New Order, Rise of the Tomb Raider. Got them both couple of days ago during steam sale. Really satisfied with both.

Persona 4 Golden - amazing game so far. (only 2 months in). Didn't even realize I had bought it...

I've spent too much money on both this sale, and the PS one currently running. Wife would kill me. But I have The Old Blood on wishlist, so that's gonna be played eventually.

booo bethesda suckers
normaly old blood is 10$/euro now they've set it 20 and give -50% :shadedshu:

iirc i got it for something like 5 euro from some of other online stores. not sure if it was greenman or humble but you'd better look at their sales for reasonable price.

Is the load time on Doom normally really long? Its very glitchy when starting up the game and then when i'm in game its fine but progress to another loading screen it freezes or takes age. Not sure if its hdd or something else could be wrong? Seems like its a common bug though from what i've read.

When I played it (not so long afgo), I had it installed on an external USB3.0 HDD, so the loading speeds were pretty bad, which was a given. Especially on the initial load to the main menu.
All the other loading times were semi-long, and much shorter in comparison to the initial one. Unfortunately I don't have it installed on neither of my SSDs currently, so I can't test it.

Skyrim. I'll take a break from it and hit new games again when I hit 1,000 hours, which is about 45 more, I think.

Monster Hunter Tri for the first time ever. I have no idea about game mechanics/controls/ui, need some time to get my head around this stuff

Physics and open-world are impressive

No such thing as a Steam sale. never was, never will be. Steam is the NUMBER ONE most expensive place to get games. Even, when they are on sale, they are 50% more expensive. I never buy games from Steam. It's a huge mistake
https://www.instant-gaming.com/en/512-buy-key-steam-killing-floor-2/ 7,38 and it has been like this for a long time. I tested this place it's legit. No scams, just games. Also you should look here. https://www.gamesdeal.com/ Good prices .
I got Victor Vran new years even of Steam,cuz could not find it anywhere else. Payed 8$ think. Found it for 3$ like a few days later. Steam is the most expensive. One thing about steam is that you will always find the cd key first,and they always have it on stock.

Picked up Rise of Tomb Raider. Much better Himalaya experience than FarCry4!! Breathtakening!!! (sadly it's not my style of game, bought it for my sweetheart ;-)

EzioAs · Jul 3, 2017

Just picked up Rise of the Tomb Raider too. It's still not as cheap as I would like but I don't really want to wait anymore. I will prioritize that game after I finish FF Tactics: War of the Lions (yes, I'm still playing that).

Looks like half of TPU is playing RotR at the moment :laugh:
