Majek Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 100% batman, now only the DLC challenges, predators and campaigns. Maybe i'll even be done by the end of december. 1.13 killed off Ja2.
Maria Caliban Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 (edited) New monitor for Christmas. Now I play in 1920x1080 instead of 1680x1050. The future is so bright, I've got to wear shades. I played another game of Civilization and got the 'Empire of the East,' 'Neighborhood Bully,' 'I Can Has Nukes?' and 'Island Hopping' achievements. Only 39 vanilla game achievements left, and then maybe I'll download the DLC and work on the 76 achievements that are listed for Civ V even though they're only available through DLC. Edit: Steam sale. Gotta catch em all! Also, why can't I stay logged on anymore? Edited December 26, 2011 by Maria Caliban "When is this out.

WorstUsernameEver Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 Recently finished Batman: Arkham Asylum. Felt too short, I wanted to play more of it.. but I have Batman: Arkham City waiting for me.
Nepenthe Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 Recently finished Batman: Arkham Asylum. Felt too short, I wanted to play more of it.. but I have Batman: Arkham City waiting for me. Still haven't managed to finish it, the core gameplay isn't really captivating enough and the spoon-feeding of new abilities seemed more tedious than an something that would urge me to keep going. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions
Raithe Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 Possibly been over-playing TOR the last 9 days. Even ended up playing some yesterday afternoon... Hit level 39 with my Sith Inquisitor, landed on Hoth. Picked up my first "Legacy" level, which is kind of funny. When you wrap up Chapter 1 you get the "Legacy Name" that all characters you have on the server have access to said "Legacy". For all xp you learn, you get a percentage of "legacy xp". So far it doesn't actually do anything to have legacy levels, but you get a nice flashy message in the vein of "this is something we'll be developing and adding in soon, but what you earn now will count to the rewards later" sort of thing.

I found the core gameplay and the way the gadget are slowly given to you through the game, giving you a "uh, maybe I should go back to that area and check if I can catch that Riddler trophy now" feeling two of the best features of the game. What can I say, sorry you didn't enjoy it.

Tale Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 What's your feelings on Metroid, then? "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
GhostofAnakin Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 I finally got around to playing, and beating, Resident Evil 5. Overall it was fun, but I couldn't believe how hard (for me) the boss fights were. And I played on amateur! I can't even imagine having any chance whatsoever of beating these bosses on the highest difficulty settings.

Nepenthe Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 What's your feelings on Metroid, then? The only metroid I've played was in the 90s, and come to think of it, that was another game where the core gameplay was supposed to be enough for the gamer, and I never got that into it. Or are you suggesting that I should play to the end to find out that bats is a girl? Now that would be a plot twist worthy of finishing the game. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep.

Maria Caliban Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Nebuchadnezzar II is kinda crap. Also, if the game says 'decisive victory' you can still be wiped out to a man. "When is this out. I can't wait to play it so I can talk at length about how bad it is." - Gorgon.
Tigranes Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Died in Level 9 out of 10 on Dungeons of Dredmor on what must have been my 20th character or so. Gragh. Have had some memorable deaths so far - one where I killed an entire monster room (100+), then opened upt he inventory and started munching on some food, but while doing that some monster blinked in out of nowhere and started attacking, only I couldn't see because of the inventory screen. There was another one where I stood on my own trap, and of course, one where I was poisoned and frantically tried everything possible, before later reading that a zodiac wand removes debuffs instantly. Currently on level 6 with one and have a good feeling.

Majek Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Still AC, completed Nighwing's DLC , now dealing with Robin and dreading the time when i'll have to do predator missions with Catwoman. ;_; 1.13 killed off Ja2.
Rosbjerg Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 dreading the time when i'll have to do predator missions with Catwoman. ;_; It's not that difficult - she can still reach the gargoyles and she can crawl on the metallic (net) ceiling. Batman is easier, but catwoman's speed means that you can get out of trouble quickly. Fortune favors the bald.
HoonDing Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Reinstalled Twitcher 2 on my new rig just to see how it looks. Pretty as a Manet painting, pity the game is so mind-numbingly boring and the gameplay so horrible to ever be replayed. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Morgoth Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Strange thing about Witcher 2. It did technically pretty much everything right, but for some reason...the fun didn't start rolling. Only thing that rolled around a lot was Gerald himself, evading silly overpowerd monsters, compounded with some awkward controls and horrible inventory certainly did not really add to the experience. The prologue was pretty cool though. Started playing a bit Hunted. So far, it's pretty fun. Nothing extraordinary, but I do enjoy the chickening with the two protagonists. Rain makes everything better.
Labadal Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) Enjoying King's Bounty: The Legend. Are there more games like this? Edit: I agree with Morgoth on Witcher 2. I still haven't had the will to finish it. Edited December 27, 2011 by Labadal
Tale Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Enjoying King's Bounty: The Legend. Are there more games like this? Well, there's Crossworlds and Armored Princess. The Heroes of Might & Magic games are relatively similar. Which is not surprising since both franchises spawned from the same company a looooong time ago. They're practically cousins. HoMM tend to have more strategy. With resources, troop production, and an enemy that roams the field same as you do. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Tigranes Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Final Fantasy Tactics. Same tactical battles, harder and more complex and orthodox turn-based, no world map.

Pidesco Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Disciples 2 and Tactics Ogre are two other brilliant games. Age of Wonders is in the same genre but I haven't really played it.

Labadal Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Interesting suggestions. Already have: Crossworlds (KB bundle) Armored Princess (KB bundle) FF Tactics (Favorite Japanese SRPG) Tactics Ogre Will check out the HoMM games, never paid much attention to them since I thought they were real time. Will investigate Pidesco's suggestions too. I don't know why, but I really like turn based combat.

They were annoying enough without mutators. :/ 1.13 killed off Ja2.
