What are you playing?

I'm doing a second play-through of the Witcher 3. I on occasion notice some strange glitching such as the screenshot shows.

Recently finished the entire game with the same mod, its just higher res textures with some optional extra settings.

Had no issues that I recall, at least not with the current 11.0 version.
Earlier version had some missing puddle textures around Novigrad but that was fixed later.

I did not use any other mod.

This part of Metro Exodus has a Tomb Raider feel to it, especially the zip-lines.

Ha, I felt similar when playing HZD, although my feeling was more like ACO.

I've just completed MPO without killing anyone and now I decided to play MGS PO & PW without knocking anyone out.

Not every mission allows perfect stealth but so far so good.

I already have an army so I don't need to recruit anyone but unfortunately sooner than later I'm afraid I'll have to get my hands dirty.

Mining Pit in PW forces player to take enemies down. I sniped 75% them with Mosin Nagant and pushed others off the cliff with CQC. Thankfully their deaths didn't count, so Snake's heroism points didn't decrease and I got an S rank.

I'll never forget buying MGS2 on launch day for PS2. Man, that was some good times. The best of times.

@lynx29 if you still have it, then play it! You won't regret it. MGS2 never gets old.

Do you know some more about the Witch game and its risks? Would like to start to play. All my friends are speaking about this game and I thought that this is the time. As you know on the internet we can find a lot of information but as my friends told me, I have to play if I want to know how it is. Now I'm playing the other game and I even found the best keyboards for League of Legends. These keyboards help me a lot during the game. So I hope that you can help me with some advice on the new game, for me. Thanks in advance!

I got so angry with the arbitrary hardcore mode (specifically the bollocksation of the compass, you don't get directions but quest markers will show up when you get close enough? That means that if you're supposed to talk to someone "down in the village" you have to run around until you see the marker, and as a result the introduction, before the first save, felt super long plus the punchout with the guy felt pretty much impossible with my build) I gave up. All of it sounds great but the directionless compass just feels really, really unneccasary and stupid.

Yeah the game has more nuisances and ridiculous and immersion killing time sinks. That is what Nexusmods.com is for

Much like satisfactory, while I was playing KCD I was quite into it - hard to put down kind of thing. But as soon as I did put it down, I had no desire to pick it back up.

Mods make it a joy to revisit. I just do the things I want to do. Its perfect on a second playthrough that way.

MGS2 was awesome. And visionary too. This was created before Snowden, Prism or Facebook...

Yeah, but I'm not really a fan of mods. Not for a first playthrough anyway, and not for a game like this. I've tried some Skyrim modding, and on the whole I say nah. Not worth it.

Anyway, just got Outer Worlds for ~€20. Apparently I had a coupon on Epic, and it was already down to ~€30.

Well, I think my GPU died. I was looking for an upgrade anyway, but still annoying.

I was more thinking a 970/980/1060/1070 or whatever €80-100 gets me next week.

well you are a long time member here and respected, I imagine if you created a WTB thread here, and put 100 euro max budget for needed gpu upgrade, you would prob get some great offers.

I just lost my first Münster ironman save file in Crusader Kings 3. Game crashed during autosave.

Got all the lands in Brittain and some lands from France as Ireland. Founded my own empire and, Reclaim Brittania was right around the corner (converting last 1 remaining county with Norse culture). And I was about to win a holy war against HRE and get a kingdom in central Europe. So I was 300 years in and in the brink of bringing havoc to mainland Europe.

It feels so sad. My glorious dynasty. All the Herculean Master Tacticians. I will miss you so much.

Now I just started another campaign and founded Kingdom of Ireland and inherited Kingdom of England within 20 years. I just want to finish my goals with Ireland before branching out other adventures. (although, all the duchies in England currently in Liberty faction against my first heir at the moment. I'm pretty sure I will lose the throne any moment).

 

[Arctucas]

How is it?

Meh, not great, not terrible. Lots of side quests, usual run-and-fetch stuff.

Really do not like the camera.

I played the first. I have a fond feeling for the game but I cant remember a thing about it.

The Epic Games Watch Dogs 2 giveaway reminded me that I was stuck on the mission, Download New Nawn's Profile Data and i found a nifty and stealthy way to do it.

There's a separate thread for the game! Join me in my circle of admiration! Howmany hours did the campaign take (up to that point)? My first run ended like four generations deep when all my sons died (like four of them within a few years) and suddenly I played a 45 year old chaste homosexual (meaning basically infertile) woman whom was politically married off to the king of Brittany. No legal heirs, game over.

But yes there has been some CTD's, some of which were good.

Thought I'd check back up on Fashionframe, taking Mirage for a ride is still fun as ever

Orange/Red crits galore... this used to destroy any content... it kinda still does apparently

Anybody still playing this and in an active guild that has space? (MR19)

Well I'm currently playing WWZ and waiting for the Left 4 dead 2 the last stand update to release on September 24 so I can get back into a game I enjoyed for way too many hours.

You and me both, then.

It gets a little grindy at first, but the classes, perks and weapons upgrades make WWZ quite a bit more dynamic, IMO. And the challenge mode is interesting since it changes the game conditions every week (there can be lots of weapons and no ammo crates, or only a single kind of weapon at all, more or less hordes, super tough zombies, some really weird conditions like exploding teammates, etc.). But I do have a complaint that the game itself lacks modding capability. You have only the main 4/5 campaigns (the french one only if you bought the DLC) and the horde mode map. That's it.

Aside from that, the only other thing is that it has a bit of curve. You need to familiarize yourself with the classes, the perks, the weapon stats, etc., to really get the most out of everything if you want to survive in Insane or Extreme mode. Weapon upgrades alone can take you as far normal or hard mode, if you're lucky. Any farther and you need to start investing in perks and understanding each class' pros and cons.

I'd left Watch Dogs 2 for months because I was stuck and as usual, going back to it things became much easier, so I was hooked all day. It's a very clever game and not quite as challenging as WD1, but it really has pulled me in this time. Zapping total strangers and taking money from their accounts feels a bit strange and I'd forgotten how good the police chases are.
I'd put this game in the top drawer as there's simply so much to and so many things to collect. Beautiful to look at too. The RC and the quadcopter are just so much fun.
