What are you playing?

[jallenlabs]

I only really play two games atm. BFV and a modded Dawn of War Soulstorm.

Void Destroyer 2 recently got a "Big Beta Patch" that made some changes to fleets, war fleets, AI, stations, etc. So been digging back into that and still getting my ass handed to me by the ever increasing in numbers AND difficulty to kill Outsider faction. It's been a lotta fun though! And performance improvements abound with part of the fleet changes being to limit the size of your fleet, so any ships beyond that size go towards reinforcements that come in to replace destroyed ships. This also adds to the combat challenge as it makes you staying involved as a pilot that much more necessary at times to help with the outcome of said battle. I really like this as the game's flight and combat mechanics are absolutely badass and fun as hell. I'm debating starting a new game, but thinking I'll get as far as I can in this current one and still maintain/survive!

Beyond that some Particle Fleet Emergence (on sale for $2.99 on Steam BTW) for some casual gaming, this one's been great and is surprisingly addictive. Then when I need a little more depth, Distant Worlds: Universe has been my go to, which is also on sale at $14.99. Might be worth a look as well if you can get past the graphics on any of these games, the gameplay they offer is great.

@W1zzard I didn't get any alerts from this thread since at least Tuesday.

Honestly, I have gone back to some Python programming because I haven't found a game to hold my attention again. Was doing some GTAV for a bit and a little Div 2 but fairly bored of that now. May try some AC:Odyssey again while I wait for something.

 

[Disparia]

Ready for Warcraft III Reforged... or WoW Classic, depending on which is released first.

 

[moproblems99]

Oh the days of Warcraft 2 Tides of Darkness. Can't remember if I was playing that on the Genesis or PC or both. Pretty sure it was PC.

 

[flmatter]

Any playing Killsquad? Is it good?

 

[Apocalypsee]

Im playing Borderlands 2, asked my friend to bought the Handsome Collection during steam sales. Its fun playing co-op with best friends and trading loot

@Vayra86 Pathfinder: Kingmaker - you know this looks exactly like the time of game i always enjoyed playing, except it is not. This turn based combat just ruins me! I need more hack & slash. There was a game that i loved so much ...i have been googling it to tell you just can't find it..also similar to your game .
It was with 4 players in a party, 100% single player. same camera, skill tree, came out about 2015 or something...but it had more hack & slash to it. Similar to Pillars of Eternity

@rtwjunkie they just released the last DLC. It is a 8 player battle royale system when only one can get to the extraction point. Give it a try and let us know how it goes.

EDIT!!! SWORD COAST LEGENDS....thats the one. Man i loved this game os much. Until i got stuck..but i mean really stuck like a bug or something cuz the quest won't progress...and i had to look it up online.

Yeah its a different take really then what you are looking for. Pathfinder (PK) is about copying the (3.5) D&D tabletop pen and paper RPG experience digitally. Just like Neverwinter Nights, Baldurs Gate etc have aspired to do. Its not about speed or skill based gameplay at all. Its all about knowing the lore, the mechanics and playing a role in the game setting.

It brings a high degree of asymmetry that would not fit an action game. I ran into a level 16 elder dragon very early into the game. Not meant to kill before level 12 or higher you might think? Downed it with party level 8, after knowing exactly what resistances and weakness it had... and a good 13 attempts later That is where and how the game challenges you really.

If I want real hack and slash, i resort to stuff like Vermintide or some Diablo clone The D&D rules dont really work too well for fast combat to me.

I'm back on Hitman 2, which has the kind of pace I like when I feel like a change from the usual shoot-em-ups. So many ways to assassinate a target that I would never have imagined.
Here's agent 47 trying to blend in again.

 

[Tsukiyomi91]

My loot for the weekend playing Destiny 2. After a loooooong "hiatus" from doing Shattered Throne, I finally took the brave pill, called in 2 clanmates & acquire the Wish Ender exotic bow. For the Beloved Sniper Rifle, just did a random Menagerie run with random players. (edit: one clanmate went off due to inactivity so just me & one guy.)

Back to Los Santos

Just finished Torment: Tides of Numenera. What a strange and awesome game that is! Many kudos to the writers and devs. Buggy-free, not heavy in resources and very smart in the choices it allows to the players. Imho, it is as MUST for any old-school RPG fans. Also, continuing AC:Odyssey and trying to not spend much time on side-quests but this game is much fun for the freedom it gives you to get back to the main story quest whenever you like -until now at least. Playing Assetto Corsa and the NWN2 mod named Baldur's Gate Reloaded (some bugs exist in the mod but in general it's a very nice job from the modders).

That is sitting right here in my backlog, waiting. Looking forward to it eventually.

Right now I am just playing through Wolfenstein (2009). I'm awaiting the Wolfenstein: Youngblood next week! That said, I have several recently released games I need to play too. I'm not going to pass up completing Wolfenstein (2009) though.

Despite not being for sale anywhere except the occasional hard copy, the Steam Community Hub for the game still has fair activity: https://steamcommunity.com/app/10170

 

[Kovoet]

Still on Ghost Recon Wildlands and Far Cry 5, waiting for the new Breaking Point.

 

[advanced3]

Back to being a bandit in DayZ again..

I've got that game somewhere on one of my HDDs and I seem to remember it was pretty good.

 

[Ergastolano]

Call of Duty World War 2 and World of Warships

 

[IceScreamer]

The Awakening DLC had some interesting characters/enemies. Along with The Architect who was my favorite NPC, Queen of the Blackmarsh was my favorite enemy. Even with the potato quality the above image looks epic IMO.

I've sneaked back into Alien Isolation again, having started it more than three years ago.
I'm not a fan of survival horror, but this game is so beautifully made and atmospheric, I simply can't ignore it. The sound design is the most immersive I've come across. Is he behind you or above you? You never really know and the tracker has a habit of attracting the alien.
After 27 hours of gameplay and looking over my shoulder, hiding in lockers and under desks, I've finally reached the end of mission 14 (out of 18?).
This is definitely the scariest game I've ever played and many a time I've had to stop playing for that reason, even on novice mode. I also love the retro feel, the crafting system, the frantic search for save stations and the crazy terminal puzzle systems, which all add up to keep you on your toes.
Definitely one of the best games I've ever played, especially in terms of total immersion.

Nice, Torment's also on my bucket list for this year and if its anything like Planescape, yummy. So you're on the old school RPG tour as well then I see? Also inspired by the Baldur's Gate 3 announce, or?

Aware of Pathfinder: Kingmaker, as well? Not as well directed as a Baldur's Gate, more akin to a NWN2 Storm of Zehir, but it does the latter very well. And its the same 3.5 ruleset, practically. On that now and having a blast, albeit a slow one. Tough as nails to manage everything, but gameplay is much better than NWN2.

I wasn't at all an RPG fan until I played Divine Divinity and the 1st Witcher game 5 years ago. Since then, I seek for good games from this genre as I like the range of choices when playing a good written game.

Alright!

Well, if you like Baldur's Gate... the Enhanced Editions are a LOT more comfortable to play and are well patched up and good to go by now, as well. I also tried my hand at NWN2 but found it hard to stay dedicated because of the extreme clunkiness of... well most things But the EE's do keep me coming back much more easily. Only drawback is the ruleset difference, because 3.5 D&D really is the best version of them all IMO.

Thankfully I managed to finish all of the NWN2 campaign & expansions. Some old-ish gameplay is profound and expected there indeed. I just started Pillars of Eternity yesterday and I like it muchly for now. WIll report back in the next few weeks if all goes well.

 

[...PACMAN...]

I should be playing Beyond Two Souls as it has released today but Epic Fail Games Store is throwing me errors when trying to download it. Grrrrrr!

EDIT - Finally downloading I'll let you know what I think. I loved Heavy Rain and the demo for this played well so looking forward to getting started.
