rjshae Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 D:OS is disrupting all of my modding efforts, dang it. I really need to do something about that. Okay, back to the game...

Keyrock Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) When it comes to Korean MMOs, or any MMOs, for that matter, the only one I want to play is that Black Desert one (I think it's only playable in Korea right now), and I don't so much want to play it as I want to play with the awesome character creator for hours on end. Someone needs to make a character creator game (no, not The Sims). There is no actual game proper, it's just a really awesome, feature packed character creator. I'd buy and play that. Someone should talk to Volition. Get them to take all the money they use to reskin Saints Row 3 again make Saints Row Gat Out of Hell and have them use 100% of that money to make their already pretty good character creator much better.

GhostofAnakin Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Still plugging along in Destiny. I'm one strike mission away from being able to purchase a purple pair of either boots or gauntlet for my Warlock. Not sure which one I'm going to get. Knowing my luck, as soon as I spend my Guardian marks on one, I'll stumble across one as a random loot drop.

mkreku Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Started playing The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing 2 today. It's surprisingly good. It's like they've taken everything that was good about the first game and made it better, removed most of the annoyances and added cool new features. Quite an accomplishment to make so many changes and still make it feel like it was all for the better. 2 Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

So really looking forward to just more fun when that comes out. Just wondering if it will have any tower defense or if they are taking that out completly, now that they are releasing the Deathtrap spin-off with just the tower defense part.

GhostofAnakin Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Playing those Destiny strike missions with terrible players is frustrating. End fights that should be relatively easy turn into impossible tasks because they keep getting themselves killed. Apparently, it never occurs to them that running out in the open with 50 enemies shooting at you might not be the best strategy.

Bokishi Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Any strike team I took to the Nexus Hive Mind boss always ended up rage quitting, until I invested in the Titan defense sub class and the ability to spawn shield bubbles, with helps tons against mobs.

Sorry about that I once heard the best defense is a good offence and I just run with it even when it doesn't make sense But seriosly, I gave up on playing strikes because I either get people that know it like the back of their hand and want to speed through it and quit if you don't know it as well as they do or suck so bad that I think it would be easier to run it solo Free games updated 3/4/21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tale Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Beat Throne of Bhaal. I've officially beaten the Baldur's Gate Trilogy. I cheated in a guy who didn't spawn for a quest and I cheated in the silver pantaloons. I'm happy with that. Melissan's so strong that the fight is actually boring. That's been my problem with the series' final bosses. The strategy I used to beat her was to just load up on protection spells and then whirlwind her butt to death. It's not very interesting to have the whole mage toolkit and just start whacking people with hammers. Some haste, armor of faiths, bless, protection from evil, planetars, elemental princes, and a wished in rest towards the end there. Did not get Sarevok to turn good, sadly. I got Viconia to turn neutral. I was hoping there was an ending where Viconia would become the Bhaalspawn's cleric, I mean, he's going to need one.

GhostofAnakin Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 The PS4 Destiny servers must be down tonight. I couldn't log on, and neither could my friend (who lives on the other side of the continent from me -- so it wasn't a local issue). I've maxed out my Warlock starting class (forget its name), and now I'm working on the subclass. To be honest, other than the special ability, I don't see much of a difference between those and my Hunter classes.

Guest Slinky Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Finished Broken Sword. Was alright, a few dumb puzzles here and there but I didn't mind too much. The end side felt pretty rushed though and the awkward George - Nico relationship made it even worse. I'd give it 3½ out of 5. I guess I'll continue to Broken Sword 2 since Beyond Earth is still almost a month away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humanoid Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 It was the one game in the series where the development was largely outsourced. Rights are probably a bit messy for it, took ages to appear on GOG as well, and physical copies also hard to come by.

Keyrock Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 (edited) Is BS4 the really bad one or is that just BS3 ? Both are chided, but for different reasons. BS3 is chided because they dropped traditional point & click controls because consoles (as you can imagine, the PC crowd didn't react favorably to that), it was actually a pretty good game if you got past the control change. BS4 brought back p&c controls but was just plain not very good. In my opinion: BS1 > BS2 > BS5 > BS3 > BS4 Edited September 29, 2014 by Keyrock RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Slinky Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Heh. didn't realize I was the only one on the forums who hadn't played BS games before. Well, other than the psone version of BS2 years ago, no recollection how far I got before stopping whatsoever. I went for the original version of BS1 as everyone seemed to think the remastered wasn't as good, but how bout BS2? Is the remastered better than original?
