What are you playing?

[Shadowdust]

I've been doing a lot of Switch gaming. Taking a break from Breath of the Wild and finishing up Xenoblade Chronicles 2 again. Other than that, some time on Lord of the Rings Online too.

Anyone here played Quantum Break ? now that is a huge game, like playing in a movie or TV - Series, around 180GB fully installed if I remember correctly....

 

[EzioAs]

Played Quantum Break last year. It wasn't super huge. At best, around 70GB I think.

 

[johnny-r]

+100GB If you install full video content (Episodes pack)

 

[rhythmeister]

Intriguing. Is it any good? I remember playing a very good billiards game ... on Win98 I think it was. It was strangely satisfying.

Anyway currently early Starcraft 2 and this time I will try to make it through the very ridiculous prologue. Blizzard has a tendency to go way to grand and dramatic.



This is pretty hilarious to me.

It seems all these Windows Store games are horrendously and needlessly huge. That’s why I won’t use them. Did they ever fix the issue of not being able to dictate where the game would install to? It used to be in some obscure Windows directory, IIRC.

You can move store apps in the Apps and Features app. But I don't think you can move them until after you install them, which is pretty lame.

New photos from Forza Horizon 4, one is the last days of Winter, other 2 is the beginning of Spring season. Extras are snapshots from Destiny 2.

Need a new game. Dammit. And I can't decide what I want. #firstworldproblems

Might give that Rebel Galaxy Outlaw a swing...

I am probably going to run with GreedFall when it comes out and then give a look at the new Star Wars game.

It let me chose where to install it at least( only partition). For real i used it cuz i really wanted to play that game.
At the end i beat the game, nice story was fun but not like GoW 1 and 2.

Need a new game.

The game "Vampyr" feels fresh among other story driven third person action games. Built on Unreal engine so it looks alright ... if you can look past mediocre modelling with some stiff animations and stone facial expressions

Excellent game. The DLC Burial At Sea is good too.

I just started a replay of the first Bioshock. Also an excellent game.

I was just reading a while back that the 3 Bioshock games had sold a combined total of 33 million copies making it one of the best selling franchises of all times.

Got stuck with TW 3 Kingdoms.

I'm getting a Dynasty Warriors meets Shogun vibe from it. Not a bad thing. I really like how they've implemented a Romance and Records path; you can play the game with the more TW Warhammer-like hero/lord focus or you can play it more serious a'la classic TW... imo that is a keeper! Great way to serve the two types of playerbase the game has gained over the years.

UI though... I suppose I have to get used to it, but boy what a mess of new numbers, stats and systems. The whole 'hero plus retinue' also takes some getting used to. Only six units per hero, and you create armies with multiple retinues. So even there it is very 'hero-centric'.

Still would prefer they just make another Shogun. Chinese history as it is really seems to require a LOT of myth and fantasy to make it spicy enough, because man, it all feels so inflated. Shogun didnt need that, Samurai are just badass on their own, for some reason. But maybe I need to play Records more to get that.

Weren't the Samurai Japanese?

I so, so, so, so, so wish they would make a game with today's graphics, and CDPR story telling about a ninja/samurai/ronin. I want that more than CP2077. I would divorce my wife if they just agreed to think about it.

I read an article about Rot3K 13 this weekend, and it's got me in that mode. I remember hours and hours with shipmates playing early Rot3K and Genghis Khan off duty. I may have to look up the cheapest, best instance of the franchise, and go playing in China a while...

edit: Holy crap, lookit what I found looking for reviews on 3Kindgoms

Picked up

Remnant from the Ashes yesterday playing co-op w/ 2 buds. Was pretty fun, I just need to catch up to them a little bit.​

 

[rtwjunkie]

Control! I'm only ten minutes in.

 

[moproblems99]

How is it?

 

[rtwjunkie]

So far I’m liking it. And the combat is not very forgiving. Which is good! Also fairly linear. Definitely a unique game.

EDIT: After another hour and a half, still trying to get the hang of combat. I’ve only died 12 times so far!
