What are you playing?

[Sybaris_Caesar]

I feel like I was the only one in Witcher 3 who got bored of the combat and gathering of herbs to make vials... I literally just did Quen strong attack roll away, rinse and repeat, normal mode. I guess I should have done Hard mode, but eh on same hand I don't want to spend hours gathering herbs to make the best potions etc I did that in 2004 and 2005 in WoW and regretted spending so many hours of my life on it, never again

I didn't use potions until the last fights. I just used foods to replenish vitality. and most enemies can block igni, my favourite sign so I had to time it right and waiting for right time means I could wait for stamina to recharge on its own without any potion.

Plus potions don't work like older games. a minute or two is a joke. So I made decoctions instead. Iirc troll decoction does 20 vitality/s during combat and succubus decoction does continuous stacking attack power as long as fight continues. I couldn't put myself to kill both succubuses/succubi? so I had to spawn the succubus mutagen by console command.

could you have used cheat mod to spawn the locations? or does that stuff not exist?

Dunno. Didn't try it. I did google to seach which people sold the maps. But couldn't find it.

DOOM ETERNAL !

 

[Space Lynx]

DOOM ETERNAL !

I pass out when the doctor takes my blood, most games don't bother me, but this is one game I will have to pass on

 

[Vayra86]

Personally I like armors that DONT make geralt look fat. So here's my favourite:

I would've crafted the mastercrafted feline armor but for the life of me I couldn't find the superior armor maps anywhere.

Don't you get a hint and quest location for every subsequent part of the set you find? I did... You could back track it perhaps.

Anyway, fun to see Quen makes up an integral part of most people's builds Funny how that works.

 

[Regeneration]

DOOM 64, originally released on the Nintendo 64 in 1997, is now available for the PC.

Free to those who pre-ordered DOOM Eternal, or $5 on the Steam.

 

[Sithaer]

Finished Doom Eternal.

Have to say I'm completely satisfied with the game,was well worth my money/preorder.

I needed a few hours to get used to the new mechanics and the way faster gameplay than 2016 Doom but after that it was great.
Game also runs just fine,on my end I had zero technical issues during my playtrough.

Now back to leveling my new char in Borderlands 3,also considering Black Mesa sometime soon.

I feel like I'm being provoked to a dick-measuring contest. So here's my end-game build:

aherm ... that's a half end game build ...

that's the armor i used before

a bit more detail into the gears (yes sadly i didn't bother with gear accorded to my level and kept my mid game gears )

errrr literally no comparison in that ... WoW raid preparation was not even on par with TW3 crafting (i rarely use any potion or oils ... in TW3 grenades a bit, normal food'n drinks a bit but advanced stuff ... not needed ) also for WoW i did craft a lot until i noticed i could do with just the basic stuff ... i always loved those "professional raid leader/class lead" and co ... got kicked from some guilds because i could do just as good or better as them ... with way less effort ...

What? You mean to tell me that you reached level 70 after your first playthrough? How does that work? I barely reached level 33 before the big fight but I anticipated I'll get enough xp to get to level 34 when I start the "big battle" that I crafted level 34 gear before the fight.
I reached level 35 only after finishing the game.

I did reach almost fully OP build/xp in Witcher 1 and in Witcher 2 reach all talent/abilities with a mod. But couldn’t find a mod like that for Witcher 3.

well that was my end game save from 2015 that i used for NG+, never did a NG+ before, iirc i did all side quest and farmed more and more before going thru the end fight ... maybe i overdid it

well that could explain why my gears are 46 at max and Kernun was the last "contract boss" fight i had before ending my first playthrough which is after level 47 to get it in the cunny of the goose board (although recommended level for Kernun is 25 )

 

[EzioAs]

Finished Doom (2016). Had a blast throughout the entirety of the game. Although I will say the final boss is a bit easier than expected. Also been playing some L4D2 with some friends.

Up next on single player games is Yakuza Kiwami 2. Hopefully this one will be better than Yakuza Kiwami.

I did all the contracts too. Plus almost cleared the hidden markers all over. Just left a few on skellige cause they are only treasures and going by boat is slow and tedious af.

The only quests I failed were a level 1 sudden marker I didnt help, brothers in arms: skellige cause I refused to meddle in island politics and gwent card collection one cause I hate rng side-games in witcher series like a passion and actively avoided every gwent quest.

What difficulty you played at? My was the third highest one with auto level enemies turned off cause I hate wasting too much time on drowners and nekkers. They're the most disgusting enemies I had to fight besides the rats. And wolves/dogs, let's not forget the furry mutts. Even killing them is unsatisfying. At least ghouls and alghouls are enjoyable.

 

[Apocalypsee]

I played roughly 43 hours playing Borderlands 3 at level 39 now using Moze. Mostly co-co with my best friend. Use red plus black theme. Game is long, and a bit tiresome but fun

After a bit you really didn’t need to keep gathering. I found it out the hard way too, when someone in TW3 thread informed me of it in that first month after release.

 

[moproblems99]

Quen abuse

Who would do such a thing?

*Spamming quen*. Damnit, refill my health!

Note: Quen with damage returned as health was super OP. I abused the shit out if that.

Mastercrafted Feline was bomb.

I only gathered stuff because I was a pack rat whore.

 

[R-T-B]

I've been playing KSP enough lately that i actually timewarped out into a solar eclipse event.

Cool.

@Frick i usually play stellaris when i am on a trip and have plenty of time to kill. it takes just few days continuous play to get too repetitive.
played a bit during past weekend with new patch (didnt got federations dlc) and i think something is off.
changed my custom faction and now i have fanatic purifier civic.
played 2 games so far. first game i failed with new resource management. had about 1.3k attack fleet.
screenshot if from second game. as in first game everyone totally hates me (-1000 from fanatic purifier) but still no one attacks me even thou since the start of the game i didnt have fleet with more then 500 power (did it on purpose) and they all have overwhelming fleet power.

What version are you on? Might wanna roll back to 2.5 or something, I've read a lot of woes with 2.6 and beta. I was about to pick the game up again but update hell puts me off.

I'm actually considering to pirate an older version and stick to it. Its god damn annoying to rediscover the same game every time. They just keep changing, to change things. 2.0 was going the right direction but they added so much bloody clutter on top... Its a smart business model, I'll give em that.

 

[Rahnak]

Finished my 4th or 5th base rebuild yesterday. Not feeling very confident about it lasting. But hey, at least it was fun.

Death March! with enemy upscaling (i always play at highest diff no matter the game and then tone down if it's unbearable, TW3 was enjoyable, didn't need to )


also ...

well not really new games but giveaway, previously bought but forgot to install and loteries keys i forgot on some CDkey site with "surprise" bundle between 1 and 4.50$ (lots of worthless one i confess ... and doubles ... )

i swear, with the confinement internet feels slower ... lotsa peoples on the coax line i might switch to tethering USB 4G+ for single download above 10gb
positive point ... i was able to sleep soundly the previous week end ... the usual sh!tty noisy AF neighbor weren't there.

2.6.1 on launcher 2.6.1.1 is the version of gog's backup dl page. i play it on galaxy so i guess it should be 2.6.1.1
i've wanted to try an exploit that i saw in a video made with federations beta build. that is why installed the game few days ago.
dont have stability issues with the game. no crashes or slowdown with time advancement. so technical side of things is ok (or is solved already)

in general i dont mind changes in the game for re-balance or to implement new dlc (i play it so rarely that every time it is new game for me and i have to learn it again.) it is just strange as some of the new game mechanics (at least those from federations) doesnt work quite well with the game when you miss federations dlc. or they are just left it in this state in order to force purchase of new dlc.
i see npc factions create galactic community but i cant join it or interact with it at all. i also dont have megacorp dlc too and i think i havnt played the game since before it was released so i cant quite make a difference what came with megacorp and what is new with federations.

i also have few of quest line dlcs but havent seen some of them triggered so far in the current play through.
could be because of fanatic purifier but will change custom faction and test community and quest dlcs after i crush some ships with current save.
what i dont like is that they are trying to push on us paradox account even harder. now ironman (and achievements) is impossible if you arent logged in, which is something i highly dislike.
it is single player game yet they try to force you to login in yet another shitty account

add this to overpriced dlcs designed to be suck hole for money from players in mmo with subs+microtransactions like manner while providing one and the same copy/paste strategy game which hasnt changed since harts of iron 1 (or whatever was their first game).
4 years old game still cost as of now on steam 40 + 127euro for all dlcs .
i've payed less for witcher 3 collectors. and it has some real life stuff not just digital dl.

i guess in future i will obtain paradox games only when provided for free form epic, steam or whatever other service they are offered at.

What game is this?

Still playing Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary. I've been meaning to get in more playtime. I went ahead, and played for a couple of hours tonight.

I don't remember it looking so bad on the Xbox though.

Really enjoying the Reach Campaign i haven't made it into CE yet. I thought they "remastered" it?

What game is this?

Satisfactory. Kinda like a simpler Factorio, but in 3D.

 

[the54thvoid]

Was being dull and playing Doom Eternal but at some point the whole damn thing flicked a switch in my grey matter and I thought, 'Why the hell am I playing this crap?'

I played Doom way back and it was ocasionally creepy and often jumpy. It's changed a lot to become where it's at now; a turgid pile of brain-wasting sludge. Never again.

 

[Keullo-e]

Final Fantasy II, GBA version on an emulator. I have this on PS1 but I have no clue where it is now

Great thing about this day's phones is that you can play with a controller via Bluetooth, I'm using a Xbox One S pad and works perfectly.
