Arsene Lupin Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 Currently re-playing Divine Divinity (almost done) and Planescape Torment (halfway done) and playing Final Fantasy VI for the first time (just started). I plan to play Arcanum next, as it was a game I actually bought in Taiwan at an open-air market a long time ago and played a lot of... but never finished. (I've still got the packaging, it was so cool to me: got a full manual in English... and another full manual in Chinese). Which should leave me ready to play-through Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition whenever it comes out, and/or the next big cRPGs--Wasteland 2 and, the one I'm currently crazy-excited for, Divinity Original Sin.
Hassat Hunter Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 Just finished Spec Ops: The Line. Pretty nice story. Shame the gameplay isn't up to par for it (cover shooter). Honestly, what do people see in crappy cover-based shooting with regenerating health? Give me a Serious Sam kinda setup anyday over that crap. :/ ^ I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created.

melkathi Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 Final Fantasy VI possibly the best in the series. Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise).
Labadal Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 I told myself I wouldn't start playing Fire Emblem Awakening until I completed another game. I couldn't stick to that. I'll just try it for a little bit, I thought to myself. Ended up playing for 4 hours. I have no self control, and in this case, I'm loving it.
LadyCrimson Posted May 4, 2013 Author Posted May 4, 2013 Played some Path of Exile, my duelist. Got to Act2, found a portal spell gem (yay) and have a sword that makes me, for the moment, too powerful (yay). They definitely improved the game quite a bit since last I spent any good chunk of time with it. Enemies have higher damage tricks to make you be more cautious. The passive tree is still huge but easier to navigate...but also more restricting per class. Nice to have what feels like a full sell/buy routine now too...I remember when all you could do was buy basic stuff with ID scrolls. I still dislike the melee combat feel ... one of those where packs get clustered together/almost on top of each other (and move like lightning) so it's hard to click-aim. Feels like a bit o' latency too. Or just bad melee feedback, where you're never quite sure if you're hitting something or just chopping at air. eg, Diablo games do melee better than PoE ... PoE is basic aRPG fun but something is still missing. “Things are as they are.

Keyrock Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) Final Fantasy VI possibly the best in the series. What do you mean "possibly"? It is unequivocally the best game in the series. If anyone tries to tell me otherwise, I take the mature, diplomatic approach and stick my fingers in my ears and yell "La la la la la, I can't hear you!"

HoonDing Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 It's certainly the last good FF. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Nordicus Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 Playing some Guild Wars 2 and it shouldn't be long until I reach the 500-hour mark total time played. The new dungeon that they added, Molten Weapons Facility, is one of the better ones they've made. It's on the easy side, but it encourages smart use of jumping and dodging during the boss battles, which not a lot of the dungeons in game do. They really should, because platforming is rather important in much of GW2 content outside dungeons. Also, I really like the new enemy designs, the combination of Dredge and Fire Legion is just lovely http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNPS-ux_m6s It's certainly the last good FF. I see you were isolated from society one way of another when FF9 came out 1
Hurlshort Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 Made a new character in the Neverwinter Nights Online game, I was very happy with the options. It seems like the game will be a pretty good platform for RPing. My Halfling, Devin Eleven Toes, was able to choose from quite a few regions as an origin and a good chunk of the deities. Not sure what bearing it will have in the game, but it is a nice touch. Then I played the game for a few minutes and didn't get into it, the camera bugs me. It is a nice looking game though, I will give it a try later when I have more time.

Sure, what server are we supposed to be on? I don't know how long the open beta will last either.
melkathi Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 Ok, anyone on NeverWinter Nights Online, Star Trek Online or Champions Online, feel free to type: /channel_join ObsidianOrder That should work. Hurlshot, Cryptic games usually do not have multiple servers as such. Instead they spawn instances as places fill up. So you are all in teh same Neverwinter, but you may be in a different instance. Clicking on teh minimap should allow you to fix that, same as in TOR. 1 Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise).

Labadal Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 NWN2: Storm of Zehir Finally exploring the world map without having to care about being spotted. Trying to fight spiders to get my bounty items so I can finish that task from Kwesi. Also continued to play Fire Emblem Awakening.
melkathi Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 Finished with PvP in Defiance for now. Got my 100 kills for the achievement. Send in a report for an exploit. Send in a couple of bug reports. Got an unlock that I should not have gotten. Now I can't gather the data recordings that I would have needed to get the unlock. Send a bug report about that. Kinda annoyed.

Tale Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 I just picked up Bioshock Infinite and Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen. So I might be taking a break from World of Warcraft. Who knows?! A game I'd love to analyze and the expansion to my game of the year last year. wheeeee "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Labadal Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 Reached Aleroth in Divinity 2. I couldn't find any more side quests and my log book only has one quest for me to do, so I guess I'm close to finishing the game. I want to play the expansion already.
Drowsy Emperor Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 (edited) Tried a bit of Neverwinter MMO. I don't like it so far. Everything is flashy and gaudy and it looks and plays exactly like every other MMO regardless of its DnD license. One word: pointless.
