What are you Playing Now: Living the Game Life
BruceVC replied to Amentep's topic in Computer and Console
Due to some work pressures and studying I dont want to commit to any game that may distract me for the next 2 weeks so I am not playing anything that is a fantasy RPG of any kind I am messing around with Sunless Sea, I am not sure I understand or enjoy it yet but I will know by Sunday as I plan to give it at least 4 hours. I have spent 1 hour so far Has anyone played this game and what did you think? -
Gorthfuscious that has got to be the most interesting and illuminating video I have ever seen around the original ideas and creation of the BG series ....well done for posting it So many things to consider. I even found the frivolous bits of information interesting like the beer, the comic and the MDK2 spell. But the whole time planar " Sword Coast dictatorship " brilliant, a pity they couldn't implement it I also always assumed @Gromnir was just using the sobriquet of an established character , well done Gromnir for being the owner and sustaining this " IP " ....Im not sure what else you can refer to it as ? But great video

The Vortex mod manager is designed with its own analysis tools and tracking of Mod conflicts which is the primary reason you get games crashing due to wayward Mods like you experienced So the entire experience of too many Mods and what Mods will work is reduced and allows you to load hundreds of Mods if you so desire But you still need to do the following which is critical to overall gaming stability Make sure you learn how Vortex works and how to use its own analysis tools, their are videos that go into detail around this on the Nexus website Read the Mod descriptions and only apply Mods that dont create potential crashes with other Mods or not necessary because other Mods give the same functionality

Okay I really enjoyed this trailer for the upcoming Vampire Masquerade Swansong.....I do love the settings and entire Vampire game world

Im glad you didnt ask me that question, Im a serious Mod groupie for most games but particularly Bethesda games I use Vortex the Nexus mod manager and for FO4 I had about 240 mods loaded, the maximum in Vortex is 255 apparently but I was reading now about one guy using 926 mods in Skyrim SSE !!! https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/8972413-vortex-maximum-mod-limit/

Its intriguing and I thought the video was well done so I am also interested in early access feedback

But I also meant to say " thanks for funding this game " , I know you didnt enjoy it but your money wasnt wasted because it has its appeal. Just one final example, the combat really becomes strategic and more complex as you progress and you do adopt different approaches like teleporting spell casters to the front so your tanks can attack them and quickly remove them from the field of battle and effectively using " hide " if you a thief but still attacking with poison weapons. It really is fun once your learn the combat mechanics and obviously you need to be motivated and enjoying the game -
I dont know if this Forbes opinion is accurate, I went to the Steam M&MX forums and people are saying you can still finish the game but you wont have access to DLC and any bonus content Thats not the end of the world but I do expect to at least be able to finish the game if I purchased it

Damn, I bought this game and Steam and have never played it

Also the criticism towards the Crows dress is really just in jest and not substantive because I can think of many reasons why any assassins guild could and would dress in a certain way For example the symbolism matters so they would sometimes assassinate people and want people to see their garb because you send a message which is " yes we did it cause you messed with the Antivan Crows " so they would openly show who they are But then logically if they play the role of spies they wouldnt wear anything linked to the Crows.....they wouldnt be very effective spies if they had wore a big, flashing neon-light that said " hi, Im an Antivan Crow and I want to spy on you " So I see no issue with their dress code

I did warn you about Bards Tale IV, remember our chat? I said " dont play this game if you dont like puzzles " The puzzles are part of the overall journey and intrinsic design and once you get use to the patterns they become much easier and less vexatious ...but they still can get annoying which is why I suggest game guides for certain puzzles It is a good game but its not for everyone I would say primarily for what you posted -
Huge game tonight in the last semi-final of the Euro 2020, England vs Denmark I can count on everyone supporting England because they the better team and then they can beat Italy in the final !!! Go England @Gorth You supporting England right, you admitted you not very patriotic to Denmark and you recently lived in England and you now call an English colony home, yip you must be an English fan of tonight's game

No you definitely not the only one excited about this game, I only completed ELEX for the first time about 3 weeks ago. The same time ELEX 2 was announced and it was such good and unexpected news I loved ELEX, it did everything I enjoy about PB games and made it better. They must keep the difficulty the same, you learn when your character is weak to avoid certain places and monsters until later and its a good system and compliments the whole sandbox design. Their always should be areas on the map that offer good rewards but are populated by very dangerous and deadly enemies

Great post and reminder of those little nuggets of information and emotion, they can really be examples of the true, terrible nature of war Have you decided who you going to Romance? I hope you havent been eying out Mirandas assets ...I will be so disappointed in you -
Lore is a huge part of any RPG for me, its different to narrative which intertwines into lore For example when I travel to places on the map I always like to know as much as possible about the region, people and history. And I love in RPG you make narrative decisions that are sometimes about 2 factions and both have future consequence that are not always about your direct journey but can be about the survival of that faction. And I often consider that choice and an understanding of lore can and does influence that decision..sometimes I have even stopped playing for hours to ruminate on vital information in RL So I get you, we both like lore

just to clarify, my birthday is on the 6 August which is 20 days before the launch. So its not this month but August But I am very glad you are thinking of my birthday which is the most important thing So now you have time to think of a present for me...and I am thinking a nice $50 Steam voucher is always a good gift for any gamer which I will happily accept on the 6 August

That was really funny and well done, really made me laugh at times But I have to disagree with some of the generalizations but end of the day this is an Australian reality and it would be remiss of me to comment constructively without knowing the facts, sequence of events and doing research on the actual data and real evidence that would confirm examples of corporate malfeasance and illegal polluting and things like dumping of hazardous materials, she mentions several examples of companies being involved in these crimes But she is so hot I prefer to just agree with everything she says And Gorthfuscious this isnt really shallow because I dont live in Australia

Its quite an amazing story that the rat snake wasnt killed, its really a good example of how the classic battles of survival in the animal kingdom become confused in the modern age of man and how we integrate and change these outcomes in unexpected ways, great post

Thats 20 days after my birthday, I think its a sign I need to buy this game

I completed Control yesterday, it was an entertaining experience and earns a respectful 60/100 on the globally respected " BruceVC gaming rating system " I spent about 40 hours to finish the main quest which is a good amount of time to comment on this type of gaming experience and design The overall narrative is compelling which is always a very important component, IMO, on the overall view of the game. And it was exciting learning about the The Old House, the Hiss, the Bureau and then how the protagonist, Jessie, and her brother are connected to all these developments and people. From a lore perspective you have loads of these partial descriptions of past events hidden in places that you can review later to understand how dark events occurred to create this current nightmare in the Old House The combat works and is well designed and implemented . You learn and advance abilities which you adopt in battles which makes skill advancement strategic and rewarding, I never got tired of using Telekinesis to annihilate enemies And enjoyment of combat in these types shooters is a hugely important when you tend to face waves of hiss infested enemies And finally the side-quests are a nice distraction that you can gain some unique rewards like the Shield ability. Its great knowing something significant awaits you at the end of a mission that is completely optional So its a good game and worth purchasing for this type of experience -
Nah, its not weird at all. I am talking about the constant times I am expected to wash my hands if I go to a mall I can understand the normal washing but it becomes repetitive and pointless. And also dont forget we not all like you Spanish people who use powders and fragrances every 5 minutes, remember I have to work during the day
