What are you playing?

Back to CS... still carrying higher ranks and not ranking up, carrying LEM / Supreme at DMG is not fun. Only reason i am down this low in rank is from no active play time for a while and i lost my MM rank, i was a Global.

Played ABZÛ last night with my 4 years old son. Ok, he was only allowed to watch... He simply loves all animals and pretty much knows every species by name already - which showed once again. That was the sole reason I picked the game up. Steam has it on discount for 5,99€ right now. Giant Squid's Creative Director used to be Journey's Art Director - and it clearly shows, ABZÛ looks damn fine.

Apart from that I've been playing some Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR-. This game looks freaking fantastic. And its gameplay is beyond any doubt. I doubt any members of TPU are into fighting games. But if you are, you should definitely consider buying this gem. Speaking of fighting games... Another Arc System Works game, the first entry in the BlazBlue saga - Calamity Trigger - is only 1,79€ on Steam right now. And If someone were to ask me, I'd tell them that it is better than all its successors.

Remember Me. Just pure awesomeness.

it's technically an android game and port ... i loved it on tablet ... then i saw it on STEAM

now i still lean forward the second iteration just for fun.

Still, it's on my list. Cuz it's cheap and very important it has co-op campaign. Not many video games these days can provide.

What are we playing for New Years Eve ?

Me & my lonely friend we're gonna go for a lan party that will start in a few hours: Magicka 1, AoE 2HD, and...if time a bit of Lara Croft Temple of Osiris (to pick up where we left off).

Spoiler: Here's to a great New year!

Man, the more I'm playing Dead Effect, the more I'm intrigued by it. Sure, it feels a bit clumsy, but the amount of RPG like elements they crammed into this game which originated on a mobile devices is just amazing. If guys behind this game weren't hardcore System Shock fans, then I'm just imagining things Upgrading weapons with gathered money, buying new stuff, now I'm also upgrading my abilities in suit upgrade stations. If these guys had more resources and a proper engine to work with, I'm quite confident they could create even more amazing game. In a way I want to do other things, but it keeps inviting me to continue playing. Especially now that I bought myself the most powerful rifle in game and upgraded my legs to carry more ammo. It's like Christmas all over again

Lol, just realized where Bullet Time and Devastaton indicators are on the HUD. Useful stuff

 

[RejZoR]

This year's surprise wasn't the Deus Ex Mankind Divided or new Battlefield or the new Call of Duty. It was Dead Effect. I'm not even kidding. For an indie game, it was amazing experience. It's 1€ at the moment on Steam. Best spent 1€ ever

 

[RejZoR]

Holy shit, Dead Effect 2 feels like AAA title now. No more movement nonsense or weird weapon feel, sprinting has no warping view, crouching is gradual, they've literally improved everything I've complained about for the first game. Weapons also have excellent feedback now and using aim down the sights actually makes sense now and also feels good. They've also dramatically upgraded the visuals, level design and sounds. Good music as well. It's really awesome to stumble across such wonderful gems here and there by coincidence. It also puts all the actual AAA games to shame by giving player a fully functional FOV slider. Something not even most expensive games have these days...

And the game now has 3 characters, allowing replay of the same game in 3 different ways, even further extending its value. I don't think I've ever been this shocked and amazed by any game ever. You always have sort of high expectations for well known big studios, but this is an indie game and they make all this good stuff. I'll certainly be on the lookout for Dead Effect 3, it'll be freaking amazing if they continue with this pace

@RejZoR You've sold me! I had my eye on both for awhile, but was unsure I wanted to pay full price since they looked a little cheesy. I'm convinced they are fun, and will be purchasing.

I started playing Shadow of Mordor. Darn, this is a fun game. Battle system seems pretty smooth and fun.

I am off and on. Level 30/Gear 170ish.

The combat and the Nemesis system is what really makes that game.


I've been jumping between Arkham Knight, Space Engineers, and The Division.

Yeah, I'm highly enjoying the combat and that system. Though, my favorite thing to do is stealth kill everything. I think they took pointers on that from Assassin Creed (feels similar).

I also nabbed Arkham Knight too since both used for the PS4 where around 9 bucks for Shadow of Mordor and 15 bucks for Arkham Knight. Just that 8GB patch for Shadow of Mordor was a good bit of wait.

Plan to nab that Space Engineer game later on. First need to finish these two games then go back and grind to take down the lv99 turtle boss in FFXV.

I'm really surprised that wasn't nominated enough to be in the Steam Awards for that one game that stands the test of time, that you always will go back to for a bit.

I play it every year!!

Nearing victory in Dirt Rally. The AI seems to have given up and just hopes I'm going to crash. Sweden in winter.

Space Engineers still has problems with netcode, unfortunately. It's playable but connected players frequently pause for a second.

First

to all here on TPU

To summarise
New years party lan was made with Victor Vran!
Did not take any screens. To busy eating,drinking grapefruit juice and playing.
In the last moment we decided before we started that Victor Vran is worth it. And it was.
Great co-op experience. And it was 5 euros on Steam! Incredible price, on GoG and everywhere else was 22 euros. Stead actually had,and still has great sale prices.
This game for ONLY 5 euros is a must have . You really can't find dialbo style campaign with hack&slash action rpg to often.
The game has many good parts. I can start with the looting system...unlike Grim Dawn where every mob dropped something, here the items actually matter. There is no skill system, every weapon comes with it's own skills. And the story is solid. Much more than Diablo 3, witch had breathtaking graphics on the cut-scenes but gave you no motivation whatsoever.
Down side of Victor Vran: unless you make it, it had no fun for us. The fact that your playing in co-op probably over net with mic+headseat ,or in our case in the same room,that is kinda fun...you crack jokes. But the game itself is not. To summon Victor Vran in one word,i'd say calculated. Definitely not your typical hack&slash. It can be hard difficulty and at times tedious. W8 for that reuse skill, don't jump ahead, think about what weapon to use next. Grim Dawn had no thinking. You had 3 buttons for skills, 2 more for potions....and keep killing everything on camera, after 1 hour you will go back to town.
Did not finish Victor Vran. At about 4 am we called it a night.

On 1 january AoE 2 HD + Lara Croft Temple of Osiris

Today i finished Batman - The Telltale Series
For some reason i can't add anymore pictures... i've taken a few screens
Don't know why, the graphics card feels nothing, but this is a very cpu intensive game. The visuals are the same from back when i played Walking Dead.
This wasn't that great. Thinking hard if to get Telltales Minecraft
