What game did you bought last?
It's ok. Felt too short to me and I didn't liked the end, which is somewhat like a cliff hanger. Gunplay / enemy variety is a bit meh as well. Personally I liked the first and the old blood a lot more. Pretty sure it is longer than The Old Blood. Gunplay hasn't changed and the weapon variety along with the upgrades give the game some replay value. There ain't much variety in enemies though. My only real gripe with game is the season pass which costs a lot and adds only a total of 6 hours of gameplay while using levels and assets from the vanilla game. A total rip-off. Sure it is longer than The Old Blood, which was just an addon and not a fully fledged game. Didn't felt like replaying the game at all, because the level design and enemies and gunplay just turned me off.... You are dying super fast and it's hard to see your hitpoints in the hectic combat, which makes you feel like you're dropping dead out of nowhere.. all the time. It really challenged me hard. It was tedious and annoying.

Which games have aged well in your opinion?
Huh. I still love JA1 even today, but I wouldn't say it aged better than JA2. I can see them being kinda on par, as JA1's mechanics are still working well today, but generally I'd say JA2 is the title that aged better simply because the graphics and controls are more refined. Oh, I'm pretty sure this is why that one Jagged Alliance kickstarter game bombed so hard.. people expected a new JA2, while the game actually resembles more a JA1 remake (is still not a very good remake, though :> ).

How is Cuba nowadays anyway? Like 10 or so years ago I really wanted to go to Cuba. Everything sounded kinda nice on paper, except for the lack of good internet and access to computer hardware.

OpenTTD is just so good. I still have my old save that I continue a little bit from time to time. Check out my oil processing plant. There's more cool locations, but... it's too many.

What are you playing right now?
The problem is, there is just not enough sympathetic legion content until much later in the game, when it usually is already too late to bother anymore. All the legion stuff you see at first are either atrocities (Vulpes Inculta) or a douche waffle (the prisoner in Camp McCarran). Sabotaging the monorail is interesting, but you still haven't experienced a *real* reason of why you should do this, except "hurr durr". Cass talks about how the legion is not a that bad thing, but it's just one dialog and you can easily miss it, depending on how far you are in the game. If there would be at least one legion quest in the beginning that lets you feel something positive and more or less humane, I bet it would get a lot easier for me and other folks to consider helping them at all. /edit: As an example, the powder ganger prisoners a bit after Nipton. You can either free them with killing the legion soldiers, which automatically moves you closer to anti-legion right from the beginning, or you just ignore them, which sucks. If this quest would be expanded with other solutions, it would not just add more options, but also draw you in a little closer to the legion. I think this is a big missed opportunity.

It's bit funny... today I like C&C Tiberian Sun way more than back in its release days.

I tried to join the legion two times, but I always end up with the NCR anyway.

I think Resident Evil 1 is still holding up quite good. Especially the remake anyway. Never had that much troubles with the controls and I played on PC even.

E3 2018 Thread
I find it to be quite arrogant (or just stupid?) to claim that games from the 90s had no personal intake of developers experiences in life. But I really don't want to argue with SonicMage117, as there is no point to it. He'll just beat you with yet another hilarious post.

We all hate Taylor Swift apparently. Nope, SonicMage117 loves Taylor Swift.

SonicMage117 gold as always. Someone should copy this into a cringe collection.

Is funny. That's probably why I don't like the majority of modern games-- I really loath everything Taylor Swift.

I think I played that followup, but never finished it, because I hated the crafting etc. I'm so done with crafting and survival in games.

E3 2018 Thread
Well, let's be honest here, the 90's Tomb Raiders weren't any more difficult but the bugginess of the games made a 8 hour game turn into a 20 hour experience. At least the newer games have refined and comtained the mess that the original games were. Deaths in the 90's trilogy were rarely the player's fault but due to poor design issues. Did we played the same 90s Tomb Raider games? I don't think so.

What did you do today?
Obviously I pushed the bike, as you shouldn't ride with a flat tire.
-
What did you do today?
Welp, I just lost another tire. Some douche waffle placed fancy nails on the bike lane. Luckily I only made 3.5km at this point, so I could easily walk back home.

Yeah, season 3 is pretty tense so far. Really sucks having to wait a week between each episode.

The Music Listening thread
This is what I find weird. If you cover / remake a song, wouldn't you add a personal note? Their cover song sounds exactly the same as the original... then why listen to it instead of the original?
