What are you playing right now?

[Labadal]

 

I'm almost done with Wild Arms XF and I have reached the second disc of Grandia. I have a strong urge to start playing either Tales of Xillia 2, Tales of Symphonia or Tales of Zestiria. In other words, I want to play a Tales game.

You know you want to Platinum Xillia 2 :-D

 

Anyway. Have you finished Tales of Berseria yet? If not, I think playing it before Tales of Zestiria makes more sense. Or it's your 2nd playthrough of ToZ?

 

I'm probably going to finish Xillia 2 but platinum it during my summer vacation. I haven't bought Berseria yet. I will get it. Zestiria takes place after ToB, I know, but I want to save it for last as it seems to be the best game in the series in a while.

I finished ToZ long before I knew, when ToB will be released. I enjoyed it a lot, I am just little bit sad now, that I didńt wait few months longer :-P

 

And I am now little bit burned out of gaming, and despite wanting to get the Plat for ToX2, I somehow do not feel to boot up any of my Playstations nor my PC :-/

 

I am really thinking to leave last two ToX2 trophies for a later time and start with ToB, but I have few busy workweeks in before me, and I do not want to lose the pace of the story :-/

I have stayed away from gaming every now and then when I felt that way. I came back with a strong urge to game after that. I once stopped playing games for a whole year.

 

It seems to me that aiming for platinum trophies like you do can also burn you out. I used to try to 100% everything during the PS2 era. I now just try to do the stuff I like and if there is a game where I want to see everything, I have started using guides to find the content. (JRPGs only)

More Prey.

 

Gah... of course the one weapon I figured was useless (bowcaster) turns out to be the one weapon I need to open a locked room.  I can't even remember where I left it.  Some locker in a random office, I believe.

 

Too many weapons, not enough inventory space.

There's crafting plans for the crossbow thingy pretty much everywhere around the game and it's really cheap to craft too.

Was thinking of picking up and trying out Endless Space 2 if it's not like Stellasris. Anyone pick it up?

[Keyrock]

Star Crawlers fully released today.  Temptation level rising... rising.

Amplitude games are usually better after the first expansion, but yeah quite tempted too. They're not like Stellaris though, more like the Civ series. Streamlined and focused on gameplay replyability.. good games, with a very fleshed out universe.

I gave into temptation a month ago, just been holding off playing for the full release.

You have been doing missions in Star Crawlers all night.

Or at least the engineer version of you on the team in my game.

Now that the game is out I can continue the story missions. They have put a lot of effort into adding variety in the story arc.

I am in their VIP-program (read beta tester whatever), so I got gifted a copy. I played around with the very early builds, where the game would break a lot. Then got busy, and when I had time again I just couldn't catch up with all the progress they had made.

Will be playing more seriously now that it is released. I want to play a pacifist, democratic Craver hive.

That moment you find out what you were actually doing when you thought you were asleep.

[Belle Sorciere]

Okay, I'm sold on Starcrawlers.

[ShadySands]

Just fired up Starcrawlers

[SonicMage117]

I had never heard of Star Crawlers til today. Will wishlist it and try to get it when there's a sale

[Belle Sorciere]

It's on sale right now, on both GOG and Steam for 25% off.

 

I can understand wanting to wait until it's on more sale, though.

[SonicMage117]

Thanks! I didn't know that. I'll probably wait til next sale, not that it looks bad but I have a couple other games I want to get on my list first

Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception

 

I actually spelled that right on the first try this time! I really like two characters from the hour and I half I got in yesterday. If you see anyone bill this as an SRPG, just know they're lying to you. It's a visual novel first and foremost.

 

I'm tempted to impulse buy that Starcrawlers as Melkathi is making a great argument for it, but my dance card is full.

[melkathi]

The only issue I have with Star Crawlers is the lack of enemy diversity. There are the various robots and security personnel, the pirates, and the critters. The story has some story specific enemy types. But the enemies in early access did become repetitive after a while. I haven't done random missions since launch yet, working on the story now that the rest has become unlocked, so I do not know if they added more.

A new Utawarerumono game? Adult version? XD

Tyranny. I started the conquest section but had to stop as i'm not sure what my Fatebinders remit is exactly, is there anywhere this is explained in detail, as a loyal servant of Kyros I neither want to overstep my authority or tread on his Archon's toes. I surely cannot be acting as a general or be trusted with decisions that will decide the fate of the campaign in the Tiers, from what I understand my responsibilities lie in a more oversight focused capacity?
