Hurlshort Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Decided to try H1Z1 on a whim, seems like a pretty neat little game.
Katphood Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) Just got myself a black cat in Pillars of Eternity. Oh joy! <3 Getting a little further in this game and holy ****, I must admit that facing well armed human opponents is no walk in the park! I wonder how it must be to play this game on Expert Mode or Trial of Iron. It's still great fun though, I love how I got out of most situations without getting involved in much combat. Truly a well balanced game. Also, I met Durance... I also play some Borderlands 2 on the PS4. I decided to go with Zero this time around. It's great fun playing as zero, his special skills remind me of Lilith the Siren in the first game. Still, my favorite class remains The Mechromancer. Edited May 4, 2015 by Cat Food 1 There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.
LadyCrimson Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 ^ Maya and Axton 4ever. === The one good thing about peeking at the Path of Exile beta is knowing what the passive tree changes are going to be. Passives moving a step to the left, passives disappearing or slightly changed or being moved far far away, etc. First time having that advantage for me - usually I'd go to play after having not played for 8-12 months and all my chrs. had their passives refunded and I'd be all "wha/who/where, I have no idea where to put them, now." 1 “Things are as they are.

213374U Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 I played a bit more of Xenonauts. I just read that they decided to make psi abilities unavailable to the player because "lol imba". Some of the changes I really like (such as making laser weapons useful). This one, not so much. Needs autoresolve for ground missions, though. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
GhostofAnakin Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Took a bit of a break from Witcher 1. I really don't know what it is, but it hasn't kept my attention like Witcher 2 did. When I do play, it keeps my attention. But sometimes it feels like I've got to push myself to start playing it.

Hurlshort Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Just finished Corellia, and now I think I'm almost done with the Jedi Knight storyline in TOR. It's been a pretty good ride, the story has a bit more going for it than the trooper plotline.
ManifestedISO Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 (edited) This is no golfing simulation game ... it's Dark Souls: Prepare to Die by Bogey. Loaded up the special Seasons mode that came with the swank collector's edition, which includes levels for Beginner, Amateur, Pro-Am, Pro, and Elite. Proceeded to pummel the field by 17 strokes, advancing to Amateur expecting a cake walk twirling my eight iron. First up, ocean-view bluff links with 570yd Par 4's and pencil-thin runways trapped with sand on both sides. Made great time until the second Par 5, five-putting across a humpty dumpty green. Still, sixth place overall... in the running. Next course, desert wind, where you can watch the flags flap the other way in about four seconds. Either this game is the most fun and challenging thing I've played, or it's totally stupid and I hate it more than anything. Right now at the Atacama Club, playing the so-called Amateur season, I'm +7 after 14 holes, in 26th place. Winning. In fact I agree, The Golf Club, 38th place is very uninspiried. Still gonna play cause I freaking love this game. Edited May 5, 2015 by ManifestedISO 1 All Stop. On Screen.
BruceVC Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 GTAV, the game is great. Rockstar really are masters at creating an immersive and living world that you can interact in Plus there are strip clubs so it feels just like RL 1 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Keyrock Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 (edited) Still playing Metro 2033 Redux. It's a really good game, I just wish it wasn't so linear. All I want is a game with the atmosphere of Shadows of Chernobyl, the visuals and gunplay of 2033/Last Light Redux, and the openness of Call of Pripyat. Is that too much to ask? That's probably too much to ask, isn't it? Edited May 5, 2015 by Keyrock 1 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks

Nonek Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 Finished the Witcher, still undisputably one of the most moral endings i've ever played in a game, turning righteous vengeance into self doubt with a simple reveal. It's a pity Jacque's end and Eredin's defeat is not included in the save import, I really want to see some reference to that in the Wild Hunt. Think i'll finish Poe before going on to Assassins of Kings. Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.I've seen things you people can't even imagine. Pearly Kings glittering on the Elephant and Castle, Morris Men dancing 'til the last light of midsummer. I watched Druid fires burning in the ruins of Stonehenge, and Yorkshiremen gurning for prizes. All these things will be lost in time, like alopecia on a skinhead. Time for tiffin. Tea for the teapot!

GhostofAnakin Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 Finished Chapter V in the Witcher. I couldn't figure out how not to kill the striga (read the hints online after I'd already done the battle). Oh well, I'd already secured her "sex card" prior.

That's probably too much to ask, isn't it? The save system is absolutely garbage. One save, and it's an autosave. Mine got corrupted when I was already far into the game, and I haven't bothered to go back to it because I don't feel like replaying multiple hours just to get back to where I was when the save got corrupted. This is why I absolutely HATE it when developers use the autosave feature rather than letting people manually save at any time they want. On save corruption later and you're back to square one.

That's what I attempted to do at first, but I went through like 2 or 3 cutscenes of Geralt saying "if I want to kill her I better do it soon", but gave up because I wasn't sure if it would just keep saying that until I actually killed her.

GhostofAnakin Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 Finally finished the Witcher 1. Solid overall game. Not a fan of the combat, though. The three different forms (group, fast, strong) didn't always work as intended (my guy had a tendency to stand and not strike when I tell him to). Also the enemy always got a hit or two in right after a cutscene before I even had chance to unsheath my sword. Not sure how much of that story will be considered part of "canon" going into Witcher 3. I can't even recall any of the events carrying over to Witcher 2.

marelooke Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 (edited) The extra weapon slots in the Witcher 1 seem like such a huge waste. I never use the axe/dagger/etc. non-witcher weapons, so they're only there to earn me some orens. Speaking of which, that's one area the Witcher 2 greatly improved: loot and finding weapons that are actually better than your starting weapons. In my Witcher 1 play through, I'd been using my same silver sword since the beginning until I got that one in Chapter IV, and I was using my original witcher steel sword until I bought the weird named one from the blacksmith's son in Chapter IV. Yeah, the extra slots were a waste of space. I kinda disagree about the swords though, I think there's one in each chapter at least and having them be sufficiently rare seems a lot more realistic (*especially* the silver ones), than finding new ones all over the place. Finally finished the Witcher 1. Solid overall game. Not a fan of the combat, though. The three different forms (group, fast, strong) didn't always work as intended (my guy had a tendency to stand and not strike when I tell him to). Also the enemy always got a hit or two in right after a cutscene before I even had chance to unsheath my sword. Not sure how much of that story will be considered part of "canon" going into Witcher 3. I can't even recall any of the events carrying over to Witcher 2. Combat (and movement in general) wasn't really Witcher's strong point, but imho it was even worse in Witcher 2 (certainly at release), so here's to hoping Witcher 3 will actually improve things. I'll also never forget Witcher 1's DRM, scarred for life by that abomination. On another note, finished the main story and DLC for Saints Row IV. It was fun and all but I think I enjoyed Saints Row: The Third more (also spent more time in it), maybe because the aliens aren't such great opponents or maybe because you just get way too strong way too fast (even though you can't become 99% invincible in the same way you could in SR3). It was nice how the story of the previous (and especially the first two games, which I didn't play) was sort of explained though. Edited May 6, 2015 by marelooke
