Binge gaming is the best gaming though

Anyone dancing with RimWorld? I'm hoping that runs on sale at the holidays. The mod community looks amazing... Been working on it over 4 years, and looks like the Mod Guys have been working on it almost that long as well....

Yep. It's great. I posted more details a few pages back. No mods for me though, I'm not that interested in them. The game is quite solid enough. There are imrpovements to be made, and the game is pretty shallow compared to Dwarf Fortress (which I've played a lot), but it's deep enough even for me.

Take it to the next level and watch them with audio commentary! I can really recommend the Futurama commentaries.

I would listen to that if I knew how to get it.

Pretty much what Frick said. Have you played Facterio? They both suffer the same...thing...but RimWorld is better out of the two. It's basically a survival grind and unless you're adamant about save scumming, you'll fail. It's fun overall but the game tends to be punishing (e.g. need more people, game won't give them to you). I think the game really suffers for not having vehicles.

Is it three weeks as in 21 days? If yes, you have played for more than 5.5h a day. That's worse than me and Grim Dawn in the summer.

Yep.

It balances out because there are weeks where I play 5 hours in a week prior to Odyssey. This game though, I’ve not been this addicted to seeing a game through, always looking for what is next since TW3.

I’m sure once I complete it the wife and I will catch up on a lot of movie watching.

Firefall, Warframe, War for the Overworld, Carma Reincarnation, occasional bouts into Star Citizen, other random things... just verified I've got Natural Selection 2 on Steam, thinking about downloading it over the weekend to see how it plays...

NS2 is dead besides the couple dozen godlike bastards that it play it lol. Good game, but the steep learning curve for noobs and poor updates/balancing for most of its life killed it.
Even if the game was perfect people wouldn't play it. It's too hard for most of the population to handle.

Quite the shame.

Liquid Cool · Oct 30, 2018

I've never counted the hours that I play and I really don't like Steam reminding either....

.

All I know is that as I get older...I don't play as long as I used to...but I also feel like I'm having more fun. No rushing to get it done...taking it easy...strolling through the game at my leisure. That's pretty much the order of the day.

Although...I'm also the type of guy that wishes they didn't invent fast travel...

.

Best,

Started back on L4D2. Bittersweet with the great memories but that we'll probably never get L4D3.

Tsukiyomi91 · Oct 31, 2018

back on Far Cry 4 since it was the best Far Cry game in my opinion... FC5 was nice but the endings were too dark. Primal? didn't get me excited as much as FC4. Also as usual for FH4 & Warframe.

FordGT90Concept · Oct 31, 2018

Hitting Consortium: The Tower hard giving lots of feedback to the developers. Hope to be done soon (two areas yet I want to look at) because it's a ton of work.

Yay!!!!! After I had to force myself to objectively analyze and review Shadow of The Tomb Raider last month I have even more respect for any reviewer, and especially yours that you did! It’s a lot of work. :respect:

Glad to see this happen, even if it is only in a limited form!

I'd say do it unofficially anyways even if it doesn't come back in an official capacity! I miss your reviews! :toast:

Yeah starting up in a semi-unofficial manner, free, in my own time, provided W1z says it's OK. Still need to be associated with TPU to get my status enabled.

Still on Forza Horizon 4 at the mo..

There's got to be a joke there somewhere about association with TPU and your status..... still working on it

Final Fantasy IV: The After Years (PC)

Well, I've played only few tales, but.... god damn they've should put an option to play these in the OG FF IV graphics.. luckily at least the musics are similar..

The PSP version had the OG 2D graphic style intact. Give it a try. While I like the 3D remakes, I did enjoy the new entries with the classic feel a bit better.

FordGT90Concept · Nov 2, 2018

The USAF DLC for Bomber Crew unlocked. I'm playing that now. Didn't realize it would mean a whole new campaign and this campaign is tough. I only did two missions so far and already shot down 49 aircraft. That's nuts...but the bomber also has 7 guns so it is kind of fair. :laugh:

Damn, so I need a PSP... I could play with emulator, but the console has more feeling.

I envy you guys that play games. I can't stop myself from pressing alt + F4 after more then a few minutes in the game, any game. Old games that I liked to play I know by memory and are boring to me now, and dislike new titles. I'll prolly give new baldur's gate a try when it comes out. Hopefully, Microsoft wont ruin it.

Ever try Consortium?

I lost my tail in Bomber Crew USAF. I've never had that happen before. :C Luckily there was an easier mission I could take instead to unlock more upgrades. I got my weight under control now but I don't have enough money to up armor the aircraft. I might have to do some grinding to survive on the higher difficulty missions.

I have about 200 games in my Steam library which I haven't touched or are just tried and "I'll try later".. And there's some titles on my shelf for consoles.. No problem about trying a new game.

Count also those 30+ digital games on my X360..
