What are you playing?

[mroofie]

Witcher 3 - Amazing game so far. Level 17.
Funny enough my buddies got me back into Command & Conquer 3 - Kanes Wrath. Fun playing it with a group of friends though.

against Ultra HARD Ai ?

Just started H1Z1 and Rust. I know next to nothing about the game but from all the twitch streams I've seen - it's pretty fun.

 

[rtwjunkie]

Taking a short break at 50 or so hours into my second Witcher 3 playthrough, and hitting 3 games I've let stagnate: Ryse; Shadow of Mordor, and Life is Strange.

 

[ChevyOwner]

I'm playing Skyrim again. This time it has ~195 mods. No idea how many hours in this play through.

 

[R3ign]

The amount of times I died last night basically forced me too, after I rage quit of course... (Lol)

I am still going to level normally and learn things at the normal speed, but I am going to use the console to basically make up for my lack of a tribe.... game is crazy hard without people helping you it seems.

I had fun making a crazy house with unlimited materials too.... lol

Everyone playing The Witcher 3 and I'm playing the first one. It's hilarious Didn't understand it too well the first time I've played it a bit, but this time around I've paid more attention to combat and tutorials in the initial level. Plus, i've briefly watched The Witcher streams on GOG, briefly to an extent that I don't really know anything about the story which is good. But I've learned few basic things that are helpful. I've just erased all old saves and started from scratch. It feels a lot more enjoyable now.

I must say it still looks damn good for its age. Then again I value the given graphics based on when it was released. The Witcher is now what, 8 years old? That's a lot and yet it looks and feels a lot younger...

The 1st witcher was better than the second all so liked the engine more even if it was the old NWN engine ( Aurora ), sadly not played the 3rd waiting on DLC's to come out. All so like NWN1 much more than NWN2 even more so when it came to coop.

But if you can get over the age of Thw Witcher 1 play it and make sure you have the blood fix as the gore in that is awesome lol.

I might hop on to check it out... However Im NA... curious to see how the ping will be.


Just picked up ESO Online to check it out... fun game so far, and from what I have read, much better from when it launched.

 

[kurosagi01]

Just completed Bloodborne and got the 2nd ending of the game,fantastic game with a finale of a boss to fight since after the 4th boss it got a little bit easier.
Now next games to playthrough are Assassins Creed Rogue on PC(excellent port),finish up Guild Wars 2 main story,Elder Scrolls online and 2-3 portable games to playthrough still.

against Ultra HARD Ai ?

Against BRUTAL AI and VS Each other. When we coop it is usually 3 Humans vs 3 Brutals. Lots of fun and had an epic game last night. Thought we gonna lose but I called down a Mothership and took an entire Brutal base in 1 shot. lol.

 

[RejZoR]

How the hell do I "wake up" the Golem in the Swamp!? Nothing is mentioned in the Kalkstein notes, I've gone back to Vizima to ask him again and he had nothing to say. I'm missing the last two Sepirot and I have no clue where to get them. The last one should be obtained in Hairy Bear Inn, somehow...

Thoughts? Obviously it's quite rough around the edges. It's something I've thrown together as an alternative format for our Next Week in Gaming Articles: http://www.nextpowerup.com/news/22013/next-week-in-gaming-july-week-one/

Background noise and room can be easily fixed with editing, looking for feedback on the template overall

 

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

@RCoon I am impressed, it really is very good.
good delivery, good pace, contained the right kind of information


a) 12.52 min too long

b) not enough nipples



PS you have the same style ears as me

 

[rtwjunkie]

WOW!!!! That is ef**n fantastic!!

Very well done and delivered. Idk if you ever had a chance to watch any of the now defunct G4 TV game review shows, but that video highlights exactly what I loved about that show! Well done!

P.S. You can look their stuff up online still.

 

[Ahhzz]

I enjoyed it, Rcoon. Nicely done

 

[dorsetknob]

[AsRock]

@RCoon i think you should start a different thread for the video critique, it is going to get lost on this thread and it will get a bigger audience.

 

[RCoon]

a) 12.52 min too long

Yeah we all agreed on that. In the event we go for another video next week, it will be less than half that in length. 5 minutes at most, 2-3 minutes ideally, depends on the amount of content.

maybe a beer before you record it next time as you did not seemed fully relaxed

It got easier nearer the end (after 2 beers and a gin&tonic). Bear in mind each video of me recording took about 20+ takes, as you can tell from the bloopers at the end. Talking is hard. Hopefully it'll get better/quicker with time. Overall 12 mins of video took ~8 hours to research, write, record and edit.

vnice RCoon, well done.

I've been having a love-hate relationship with Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.

I actually think 5 minutes is too short. Admittedly this first run is too long, but 5 minutes would eliminate 70% of the narrative about the games, something I enjoy immensely while watching game excerpts. When it's cut down, I always felt cheated. Just my opinion!

As to what I'm playing, I have begun my one-week self-implemented break from my second Witcher 3 playthrough. Finally started Life Is Strange last night, and finished episode 1. Once I got past the weirdness of playing a teenage girl, and once I knew how to use the cursor properly (thanks @RCoon for helping me eliminate my rage at the game!) I found a good little story, and it's very enjoyable...relaxing even. I'll be starting episode 2 tonight.
