I'm currently working through the Remaster of Bioshock1. Really enjoying it!

I enjoyed the entire series. In fact the Bioshock Infinite DLC is next up on my list of DLC i bought but never played.

I finished Dragon Age Inquisition DLC
Finished Witcher Heart of Stone and just started Blood and Wine
next up
Bioshock Infinite DLC
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider
and some Wolfenstein DLC i bought that I don't even remember which game it was for...

I'm playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare.
I beat the campaign and I've enjoyed MP but the first 4 hours of MP sucked and then it got better BUT I seriously like Co-Op.
I like how the plot continues in Co-Op.
Oh and I like the Trials...thems be awesome

yep, 10yrs anniversary was recently, i started in 2009 with the Gameforge (more like Lameforge) EU version of it ... and quickly migrated to the NA publisher, EnMasse, which is not perfect but quite an improvement over the EU publisher in term of how close the content of the game is close to KTera (Korean original version ) they are.

the graphic have lost a bit of shine but still a pleasantly enjoyable game with an excellent gameplay (which transpired into more modern mmo's like Blade & Soul or Black Desert Online ) the story and cutscene are still very enjoyable (Zolyn and Paesyn tragedy is heartwrenching )
storywise it's kinda well pieced together, Paesyn is a happy go lucky klutz and Zolyn is a one track mind set on vengeance ...

i deleted my lvl 66 reaper to start an Elin brawler... although i should have gone for the Human brawler since it's redundant classe ... but well the Reaper had no big stuff on her (even tho i got most of my cosmetic items and mount via auction house)

but out of all, it's the humorous nonsense that can be found throughout the game, that get me all the time
78417947_1043536792699007_5495853337511198720_n.png

although modern tech is not a no go for Tera which is not a medieval phantasy but rather a mix of it with sci-fi (the main enemy of the first arc, the Argon, had a distinct organo-mechanic look and their building architecture sometime look straight out of H.R. Giger's mind

bottom line: still a really enjoyable time killer and even fun in solo

Yeah Gameforge, I hear you... that was pretty shit. Its the reason I quit the game, couldn't be bothered migrating and spending extra time because publisher won't get his act together. Got level cap with a bunch of characters and started losing interest too because the P2W money/time sink was real at the time (the upgrade systems/droprates.. bonkers). But the combat was and probably still is pretty glorious for an MMO. Good fun, it actually didn't matter that the grind was endless, just because the gameplay was good.

But... I also played Allods Online... now THAT was a P2W MMO. Truly next level, know it? It takes a while but you do soon realize all you've really got is paid cheats. And the price would increase exponentially with every rune upgrade too :D I remember still, opening a loot box with top-end items would auto post a world message as well. At some point I got an item for infinite free respecs (respeccing is expensive, and this item translates to a huge money saver and never expires)... my chat log got spammed so hard with offers (some to the tune of over 200$ converted in currency!), the server knocked me out of the game :D Moving to Tera after that was a true relief...even with the shit droprates.

The ship battles in Allods though... pretty cool stuff. The whole Astral, really. Worth looking up ;) Best WoW clone ever besides the business model

I finally worked out how to get the police livery and lights on the Bugatti Veyron - go to custom upgrades, trim, side skirts - click right hand Forza box for blue lights (left for orange, but who wants those?)
All I need now is a toggle for the horn (siren) to on or off.
(The body damage below was the result irresponsible behaviour on the part of other road users)

Going berserk mode (trying for negative with all factions) in The Outer Worlds with Sam didn't go as planned, the Board loved it and I got stuck in the main mission. Will try that another time.
Went back to The Witcher 3 to finally play through Blood and Wine..starting completely over. Hopefully I get the good ending now with the main story line.

I can't find the hours of playtime but this how far i've gotten in general. Total completion percentage may seem low but the time spent on that little bit of difference is just as much if not more than the main story time. It may only give a 0.5% or less for completing a side quest...sometimes none at all.

Just finished Outer Worlds on Supernova difficulty on my first playthrough(~25-30-ish hours?). Dunno what all the fuss is about...
The game is good, yet so far it's not a masterpiece, but simply "better than fallout".
Also, I'm not sure whether it's my luck with RNG, or the game is designed like that, but throughout Terra 2 and pretty much the first third of the game, the biggest difficulty was finding drinkable stuff. Constantly going low on thirst meter between traveling and traders/vending machines. The rest was way too easy up until Tartarus, which I entered already at level cap, and enemies were evenly matched w/ me (had lvl.30 weapons/armor, higher damage etc). At the end I wasn't even motivated enough to explore previously visited locations and find more secrets and easter eggs, cause enemy levels are static and by the end you can kill anything (except lvl.30 corporate commanders and a big-ass robot boss) with a single punch.

today's playing is BDO then ///

the Berserk collab even launched yesterday and is on till 4th of december ....
Black-Desert-X-Berserk-promo-image-1-696x344.png

gathering some info about the event ... i think i regret not having leveled a Warrior (oh well ... RL money spared )
Black-Desert-X-BERSERK-Berserker-Armor-image-1.jpg
and neither the Berserker armor for the other 6 male classes (without the Dragon Slayer, it's an heresy to wear that armor ) nor Griffith "white hawk" armor made for females (well Griffith did look quite androgynous in the manga and anime ) interest me (most of my char have full sets already )

but for sure i will get the reward alchemy stone
9d888b1ae272f8d91de2f9c6cf100053.png

the quest is ... starting with a legend of Berserk universe .... (nope ... not Guts) and end with another legend (not really end... you meet him middle questline )


putting a playlist consisting of mostly the band Beast in Black ... on the Mi Box S
IMG_20191129_180953.jpgIMG_20191129_181110.jpgIMG_20191129_180843.jpg

deciding on which char close to awakening quest i will take (need lvl56 and it would be my fourth awakening) i realise i did finish the Shai leveling event when it was launched (and that class didn't had awakening quest done at the time ) and is actually 58, "let's put some cotton candy filled joy delivered with a boomerang, in the grim dark universe of berserk then..." (i confess i wanted to use my lvl 54 Dark Knight or lvl 52 Lahn instead ... but i am lazy ... i take the one with the best AP/DP and health bar (and the only one with more than 1000LT carrying capacity )

the second encounter with Zodd is a field boss ... it will take some time till he pop ... (goodness ... timer pop says : between 3 and 6 hrs ... what the heck is that xD 1-2 hrs would be long enough already )

Last night went with Final Fantasy IX, and I guess it's time to continue :)

The Steam version is actually fine, played through two times before and the only things I can complain are rare random crashes (luckily there's autosave) and those borders since the 4:3 screen size hasn't been fixed. Damn I love that minigame where you dig for treasure with the Chocobo.

Heh, I knew instantly that you just have a typo in your username :)

About Steam FFs, I got about all of them (not XI & XIV tho, I'm not a MMO guy)

i was almost sure that i knew that you knew ... errr... aaahhh back to FF, thanks for reminding me i have FF XIV also ... (almost 600ish hours of play on it ... on a huuuuuuuge hiatus on it ... )

well what i was saying, is all FF i don't have on other support (aside VIII ) are on STEAM (and i intend to get them due to fandom ), although i started with FF I on NES in 1989, 2 yrs after the original release and the other followed naturally (albeit the VI/III naming "event" ) sadly i lost all of them because at the time i was an ... what's the term? ah yes ... "Idiot" with a capital I ...


thus right now i am re gathering my collection (and i wish Retro-bit would do more than a few collectors ... ofc i love Holy Diver Collector Limited Edition, furthermore finally in english, with the original NES cartridge or the next one i would probably buy: Super R-Type & R-Type 3 Collectors Limited Edition for SNES

oh that remind me i still have FF VII Dirge Of Cerberus, X-2 alongside Odin Sphere and Valkyrie profile 2 Silmeria (PS2 original box ....) to finish ... i have a PS2 Slim Platinum laying somewhere but i am not sure if i have the cables and controller ... oh well PCSX2 will do, if not (well for PS1 games i also have my Playstation classic, with Bleemsync on a stick which i love because once moded it's almost a media center in addition )


as for BDO ... daaaaaaaaamn Zodd final encounter is hard ... :laugh:

I bought RE2 last night from steam, and all it does is crash. I cant get further than the trucker hitting the little girl. Stock, overclocked, ht on ht off, xmp on xmp off, 4400mhz lowish voltage to max oc and high voltage. Not sure if that it is a problem on my end of if its just the game. Most unimpressive. I would be playing that right now, but its unplayable for me on this pc.. have to wait till the kids go to bed before I can try it on my x58. First time a game has been a complete steaming pile of wasted cash for me. Just glad I didn't buy it when it was 80 CAD.

Edit:

Ok, so it runs great on my x58.. dammit.

You bet. I just installed more ram, for 12gb, tho RE2 was running with 8gb on my x58.. Just waiting for it to finish installing again. I may try my 970 in case there is something fishy going on. I can run Doom, FC5, GTAV, WreckFest, Grid 2, Beam NG all just fine no problem. If it crashes with my 970 I will reinstall windows. Have to say it looks sweet even with the 970.

Ok, so its running now. Sometimes I have to start my board with no ram.. just to clear out any gremlins when I try to run my ram fast. I think my 980 might be getting old. Still looks good though.

Yeah, doesn't need to have settings cranked up for it to look good. Hell, even with GTX 780 with medium settings looked pretty damn great :)

Which Fallout?
Every youtuber keeps comparing it to 76, but since I hated FO4 as well, I'd go as far as saying - better than an entire FO series reboot from Bethesda.
I think I've only had good time playing FO3 on Playstation 3 many-many years ago, but never managed to get the PC port to work stable on either of my PCs ('cause Bethesda, of course).

I played hundreds of hours of Fallout 3 back in the day, and it does crash hella often. Still, that didn't ruin the atmosphere (and not even savefiles, lol)
