What are you playing?

[Splinterdog]

Cracking on with Watch Dogs and now I know that I never finished it last time around, which is great because everything is new to me.
Anyway, the characters, apart from Clara Lille, are not as interesting as those in WD2. Marcus Holloway, for example, is very engaging.
Aiden Pearce comes across as a smoothie, but I find him a tad irritating to be honest and Clara clearly has designs on him.
The stealth is pretty good, as is the shooting, but WD2 adds so much more to the game and is possibly a little easier with all the toys and air vents.

After waiting and dreaming of a GTA Vice City remaster, of course I was disappointed like most of us that remember playing the original versions.
Still I couldn't wait and started the "new" Vice City with some mods and fixes and I must say I enjoy the experience even if it's not quite as amazing as it was in 2002-2003 at the net cafes, I'm at around 35% progress after 7-8 hours.
If someone is interested to try them, it helps a lot to run all three games in DX12 but still there are drops in FPS and that is the most annoying part at the moment.

DeathTrap Dungeon!!! ... got it.... and most of the rest of the series as well LOL

 

[Ruru]

Playing Crysis Remastered. Damn it's demanding, the first game I've played which 1080 Ti won't run at 60fps

 

[Aquinus]

I just started playing Farming Simulator 2022 and it runs surprisingly well on my laptop. Medium graphics, 80% render resolution at 5k and I get almost a steady 60fps. It's also one of the only games I've seen push the 5600m to thermal throttle, something else has always been the bottleneck. Playing for a couple hours drained my battery to 85%... while plugged in.

Im downloading BF4 and BF3

in a month i will upgrade to 300 Mbit, 80 Mbit is to slow

 

[Space Lynx]

I'm basically going to be playing FFXIV 24/7 until February most likely. I can't wait for Endwalker... only 4 more days until early access!!!

 

[seth1911]

But today its time to play BF with the awfull GT710


Edit:
BF4 run ok but i dont like the maps, BF3 is better

 

[SN2716057]

Okay, I was too harsh about Forza Horizon 5. It's a good looking & playing game without any bugs so far.

I figured someone would understand that screenshot.

@metalfiber mentioned it too, but the intro sequence is a huge tribute to anyone who was a teenager in the 80s! (guilty)

 

[seth1911]

Hmmm i to bad to play a shooter with mouse and keyboard, after i play around 2 years with gamepad (No Aim Assist ).

Just finished it! Great ride. The writing is top shelf. Looks great in 4K too.

 

[GamerGuy]

Resumed playing COD Warzone SP campaign before I start on Vanguard. Also, saw a few game on Steam going for 30% off (BF sale) so I snagged:
Back4Blood
The Outer Worlds
Ultrakill (I love old skool shooters, had a blast with Hellbound)

For the year end holiday period, will prolly play Industria and Chernobylite....and perhaps finish off RE Village and Necromunda.....I'd not realized that I'd gotten so many games!

[oxrufiioxo]

i enjoy my very limited time in Forza Horizon 5 CTD edition...
sometimes i am even able to finish a 2 minute sprint race.

I've had 1 since launch and it was while changing a bunch of settings. Wgs version though not that it should matter.

 

[Space Lynx]

I'm considering starting up Nier Automata as its on Xbox Game Pass.

I was wondering, would the story make more sense if I played Nier Replicant first? Please advise... also side note... wish this game supported high refresh... sigh...

You can play them in either order they are only loosly related. Playing Automata first won't spoil Replicant for you if that's what you're worried about. Both are awesome and definitely worth playing.

Finished Kena Bridge of Spirits last night, what a great experience that game was especially for a first game.


Definitely worth my money and I hope they make more games in the future with at least this kind of quality.
Did not play many new games this year but for me this is the game of the year so far. 'I like such surprise smaller games, Hellblade was also my fav in the year when it was relased'

Last boss fight was a bit of pain and had to try a few times since it doesn't allow for too many mistakes but it was doable on normal difficulty even for me. 'multi phase boss and if you die then gotta restart the whole fight'

Now while I'm in the mood for such games I'm gonna start playing Star Wars Fallen Order, hope I can manage that.

Thanks for asking that question, I was also wondering since I thought about playing that game one day.

Just finished Psychonauts 2, what a game. Sure the platforming could be a lit better, but apart from that what a masterpiece. Loved the artwork, sometimes i was just amazed at what i was seeing, this is clearly done with care. The story is good, and all the characters are loveable and have their own personality and the voices are really good.

Like someone said this game has no right being this good. 10/10, best game of the year, no questions about it.

The Outer Worlds, with expansions. Doing Murder on Eridanos, and it's a lot more game than the base game, in a way. The map is quite big, and pretty cool, and the people you interact with have more to say. It's still pretty focused, but not quite as laser pin point as the base game (most if not all conversations is about your mission, meaning no padding at all). The game is stupid, but not in a bad way.

I tried the Outer Worlds when it was on Xbox Game Pass, I couldn't get into it. Really hoping Nier Automata reignites my love for AAA gaming, cause I have been doing indie gaming 24/7 lately, but ready to try something big again.

AAA lately, RE Village and Hitman 3 was the only ones that done anything for me. The rest it's just disapointments. But great indie games.

Just got the Crysis Trilogy Remastered. Played the originals and look forward to these, especially the first game. I still play COD MW hard core multiplayer every day too. In between that, Dawn Of War Ultimate Apocalypse.
