Hah, I missed that sneaky cutscene right after the credits first time I played.

 

Too bad Tornquist is still wasting his time with that Secret World trainwreck.

I have an irrational fear of Dreamfall. The first time I installed it my graphics card blew up. The next time, my entire computer chose that moment to go kaput....

I've had a similar problem with Invisible War, I haven't managed to get it to work on any of my computers or configurations

 

Refer to the let's play I liked above if you want a hassle-free experience.

Well, Dreamfall was one of the games that used the evil StarForce protection...

moar League of Legends

 

after looking forward to finally having Gangplank as a free character to play, i am seriously underwhelmed

guess it just means i can save up points for someone else worthwhile, like Warwick

GO is much better than WW, it just takes patience.

Warwick suits my play style much better

 

though i have had some fun games as Cho'Gath with a pseudo tank jungle build

Arx Fatalis, Baldur's Gate 2, Sacred 2 & Vampire Hunters.

 

Strange, Vampire Hunters is supposed to be one of the worst games of all time, but I'm liking it a lot.

Robin Hood - The legend of Sherwood.

I take it you have already played Desperados?

Of course. I replay both of these games almost every year.

I found Robin Hood to be an inferior copy.

Ditto. Desperados though was vastly underrated.

 

Maybe I should try Desperados 2 some day..

I rate them about the same which is as good as the original commandos, so pretty high. i try to play them without exploiting the flaws too much as well.

 

edit: Desperados 2? Now that's torture. If you give the first game an 8 you can't barely give the sequel a 5

I never played Desperado's, but I enjoyed Robin Hood.

Overlord 2 is a pretty funny game, didn't play the first though as I like doing things backwards apparently. Bit too concole though for my liking though.

1 is the better game. Though I like lots of the features of 2, like mounts.

You should, it's a much nicer experience.

I'm re-downloading Dark Messiah as we speak. I need some ass-kicking.

 

Or maybe I should try our a Mage class for a change? Is the mage recommendable?

Is the mage recommendable?

Hint:

Yes.

 

Fighter/mage/thief is most fun. As in pretty much every RPG.

The ice spell makes for some slippery hilarity...

 

Try putting it on top of stairs

Mage it is then.

Finally finished the BG1-2-TOB megarun a few days ago, the Longer Road mod (Irenicus redemption) made the last part a bit more interesting... sadly, BG mods are cursed by one of two things when it comes to writing: either it's utterly, utterly bollocks, or it's not bad but the writer becomes self-indulgent and every bloody conversation is a medieval treatise. This one's the latter, if you watched the characters spout their lines in real time it would have looked like a series of shakespearean monologues.

 

Bought & Playing Victoria 2 now, it's great. There're some kinks as usual - self-destructive factories that make for endless cycles of bankrupt capitalists, for instance - but it is very fun and I think Paradox did a good job again. Nearly done with a full 100 year game of the Netherlands where I took them up as one of the powers, maybe I'll try Korea or something next.

Seems to be a problem with a lot of modders. Either they're so focused on building awesome areas in toolsets and implementing scripting wizardry that the dialogue is just completely forgotten in the process. Or, it's severely overdone like you say. Few manage to get it right in my opinion.

 

I actually re-installed Oblivion and been playing that. It's pretty much how I remember it. pretty boring overall though some quests (notably Dark Brotherhood and Thieves Guild) can be pretty fun.

 

Installing tons of mods but it is really not a lengthy source of entertainment. It's great fun to load up a new mod, go in-game and see how it works out. But none of them elevates Oblivion as a whole to a really fun game on its own. It's just too... uninteresting and inoffensive. You'd need a mod to replace all the content in the world for it to become really fun.

Some of the mods are quite nice though. I'm trying out the Unique Landscapes mod for example and it does make the world a lot more appealing visually speaking, without breaking the tone so to speak.
