I never take Barkspawn with me except at the beginning when you have no fourth character. Reason: dog is always 100% friendly.
 
Bought Ziggurat on Steam as a part of a 50% discount deal. And it's sort of interesting. Procedurally generated levels, tons of different monsters, speels and upgrades, it kinda reminds me of Lichdom Battlemage in a way with segmented arenas that you have to clear out. Only thing that annoys me is that when you die, the game is over. And just when I got some of the coolest upgrades. Darn game of course refuses to give me health regen which seems to be the most critical in this game (health potions are hard to come by).

If it looks bad it's because all the settings are on ultra low unfortunately. This is as close as to a "Return to Castle" remake as it gets.
Since this game runs on my ancient rig,you can imagine it's super optimized.Anything from this age runs the game at ultra settings.Played at my friends (with a new computer from 2013) and it does just that.
All tho the mistakes are there(same ones from wolfenstein the new order): move the camera fast enough you will see through the wall, lip syncing has nothing to do with the words,the lighting is bad what is up with all that darkness (same as New order). As if the game was made to be grim, dark with a sense of horror. There is "dark" in everything....i hated New order for this. Kinda depressing. Reason why Far Cry 3-4 are so amazing ! In those games it all feels like you are in an superb exotic holiday. it relaxes me to run through those jungles or mountains to shoot stuff up(love it). Aaah, i could keep on, but really it makes no difference.
Unlike New order here the story is good. Further along the line i'm sure it will start to exaggerate. Still i'm 20% in gameplay and if one would have to chose between buying New Order or this one,i'd say buy Old Blood. So far it's a 7 out of 10 game.
 
I'm actually playing a bit of Vega Conflict to supplement my other feeding habits... it's a lot more fun to play on the computer than a phone heheh.

Got it from a local IT shop in Star Hill area, Kuala Lumpur.
 
Been playing a lot of Dirt Rally, myself. It's nice to have a difficult game that is going to take awhile to master. The driving feels great, cars look and sound awesome. The sound design for the whole game is excellent. For an early access game, the content that it has is very polished. I can't wait for the hill climb stages.
 
BF hardline, dota dota and more dota2
 
Grand theft auto 5. Havent been able to put it down even though I have a ton of games in my back log both on pc and ps3.
 
Despite all the GTA5 frenzy, I just prefer to play Orcs Must Die 2. This game is so bloody awesome and with amazing replay value. And I've just noticed they are working on a 3rd installment called "Orcs Must Die Unchained". Found this franchise by chance and am loving it ever since. I just hope they'll port all the OMD 1 and 2 maps and modes. It was so fun playing OMD1 maps in OMD2. So, hoping the same for the third one!
 
Omg lol. I've found a way to make Endless mode in Orcs Must Die 2 trully endlesss. I'm in wave 79 and have been playing for like 3 hours. The traps are doing their magic and now I have to use my tablet so I can browse the net while I'm waiting for some orc to get past the traps. Might take an hour or two more lol
 
I'm playing RMA time. I'm on level 1 called "Disappointment". If I can beat this level, I go to level 2 which is the dreaded "Post Office" level. If I manage to make it past level 2, I have to sit through level 3 aptly titled "Waiting" for a couple weeks. I hate this game. :(

this game is more like the original which I like.
 
I'm with RejZor...I've been playing the heck out of the Orcs Must Die! series. Although....at this moment in time, I'd probably lean towards liking the first one better, but I'm only a couple of hours into the second one so my opinion may change shortly...:).

I'm also doing a first run through Call of Juarez: Gunslinger and liking it quite a bit. Essentially, I'm playing the CofJ and Orcs Must Die! casually....

What I'm really into at the moment is Fallout: New Vegas and I don't see this changing any time soon. I'm hooked...and I'll probably be playing it for months.

Absolutely love the game.

I was actually going to start the STALKER series or Mass Effect series, both of them having been sitting and collecting dust in my Steam inventory for a long time...but I wanted to try this game out after I upgraded my laptop to an A10 processor...and as I was checking the FPS under different settings...I started liking the game more and more...until I sat there for 8 hours straight. Something I haven't done in years.

IF I get bored with it down the road...I'm going to start up the STALKER series, but I'm currently trying to check out the mods for this series and I could use a little help(IE: links, which mods are best, which ones I shouldn't bother with etc...).

Best,

Liquid Cool
 
you haven't played the Mass Effect trilogy? why are you still here? :p
 
@Liquid Cool I can look up which mods I hace for my STALKER games. I pretty much settled on a few comprehensive ones and a couple small ones, and thaat was it. Ive not got them installed at the monent but in a folder in obe of my hdd's.
 
I still haven't gotten around to finishing ME3. I managed to see the ending before I got about half way through the game and just said f**k it. So, I guess they changed the ending? While I'm on my "back-up" computer I suppose I should play through all 3... I just need to find my dvd player somewhere.

I would be more than welcome for any help you're willing to offer. At the moment...I'm clueless and stumbling around in the dark. Although...I do remember reading about 'one' excellent mod for the STALKER series that I can no longer find the link to. It was one of those mods they made you want to load the game RIGHT NOW....:). Just to check it out.

Best,

LC
