Had Prey for a few months sitting on hard drive. Got in a giveaway. The guy was so enthusiastic about it. Giving it away to so many people. To him it was the best game ever. Google says it's like Deus Ex, first person sim or sth. I thought might as well try it. Fuck that. Horror game through and through. Uninstalled just now.

Though might as well start The Walking Dead again. Started up episode 2. Fuck the choices. Will try again later.

My quest for something to play continues.

I am not a big horror fan. I literally do not finish horror games because I get creeped out too much. Prey really is not a horror game. I finished it. Prey is really just
Science Fiction. It's also pretty good and worth giving another try to!

Horror? I've played through several times, and the only horror I've encountered, is Mooncrash bad RNG and bugs. Just play past the first 10 minutes or so, it only starts with a premise of a typical space horror, but it's actually not

rtwjunkie · Nov 20, 2020

I am at about 75 hours in AC: Valhalla and only 23% complete. Apparently I am a complete murdering Viking sociopath with 1,900 or so kills. :rolleyes:

OK boys, back to the longboat! This monastery has been trashed.

Thanks for sharing your things. We appreciate your hospitality!

Lunden found on a foggy evening.

Lundinium Bureau, vacated for 400 years found!

Oh really? Our army would like a few words with you!

Next follows a pretty decent, large-scale battle. I got to lead the battering ram team.

I named my white wolf Mouse.

A little sunset fishing. The fishing thing in Valhalla is actually pretty fun. You need some good patience sometime!

rtwjunkie · Nov 20, 2020

Man I don’t know what I was thinking. I just raided Dover Castle from the sea in AC Valhalla. That’s me and my 12 man longboat raiding party. Fighting through tunnels up to the massive fortress, always pressing upward. We were outnumbered more than 5 or 6 times, and it just went on for nearly 30 minutes. My finger was as sore as their arms were from swinging axes and hammers! Finally I just blew the horn and said “back to the boat, boys!”

Super fun. I recommend you take on huge odds like that as well as being only power level 120 in a 160 area!

Déjà vu

metalfiber · Nov 21, 2020

Chasing down orlog players...

rtwjunkie · Nov 21, 2020

In AC Valhalla still, and only 28% complete. I like that good combos or series of successive hits gets you a good finishing move in it. This may be my favorite finish, with the enemy battle axe buried in his own head.

IOI, interessting after Hitman in Episodes and Hitman 2 now 007 and Hitman 3.

EA, Ubisoft and Activision just sucks nowdays

You got the cat!

Oh there’s a bunch of finishes, but that axe to the head was the first time I saw it.

windwhirl · Nov 22, 2020

It's sort of no longer playing, because I just finished, but I spent a while with The Uncertain: Light at the End.

It wasn't bad, but there isn't much to write home about. There are also a few bugs here and there, mostly relating to audio clips that play out of sync or don't play at all and devs could have spent a bit more time giving characters more expressive faces.

That aside, there were a few nice references to other media or even real-life stuff, so it's something, I guess

Space Lynx · Nov 22, 2020

now that I have a computer that can finally run it, I am playing Total War Warhammer just the 1st one campaign for now... after that then Total War Troy I got free on Epic Game Store.

The ambient sound is creepy af. And I just got slaughtered by a phantom or sth. Not to mention so many fucking dead bodies. Usually I explore almost every nook and cranny of the games I play.
The only games where I don't are either stealth games where I wannna do a clean run (no detection, no kill) or horror games where I'm too scared to even finish the levels. Prey is giving me horror vibes. Fuck that.

Or System Shock 2.

Sadly I'm a picky eater and a picky gamer. I'm too old (or at least I consider myself to be) to learn the nuances of "complicated" games like 4X turn, grand strategy, RTS, base-building, platformer, management etc.

As for System Shock, I'm putting it in my wishlist for now.

xtreemchaos · Nov 22, 2020

just started No Mans Sky VR, its a colourful game for sure, loads of building and space traveling , its quite hard on me old gtx1080 but lowered a few settings and its running good and looking good.

it's like gta in space.
fly ship. get missions, do what mission requires. kill whoever try to stop you. deliver the mission and get the money. get better gear. take harder mission.
rinse and repeat.

DR4G00N · Nov 23, 2020

Started on Halo 4, didn't realize until today that it was out. The beginning missions when fighting the covenant was fun. After running into the promethean knight's for the first time the game got much less enjoyable. The weapons you get in that area are practically useless because they're slow or run out of ammo immediately.
Now it's turned into a grind which I'm not really a fan of.

jormungand · Nov 23, 2020

Yeah !! sweet graphics, i love when they do this to the mythology side. Even though i think that they should have gone wayy more flamboyant, elegant and colossal making
the buildings and constructions its Greek mythology!!! you dont go cheap!!!!!! throw everything your imagination has, more!! more!!!

I found Origins Mythology well balanced and beautiful, this one feels just ...ok imo.
Even though i just started.

copenhagen69 · Nov 23, 2020

I just picked of Battlefield V ... yes a few years late, but loved BF2 and still play it from time to time. Figure why not grab BF4 now. Might pick up the new COD as well .. not sure though.

They actually went to extraordinary lengths to make it historically accurate as things were during the Pelopanesian War, as well as accurately portray known buidings of the time and prior. They left mythology to be explained as Isu constructs, such as The Minotaur.
