What are you playing?

I'm still playing Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. Looks like I may finished it on Friday. Man, I sure love FC3 game mechanics. Really pumps out my adrenaline after spending way too much time on stealth-focused games. And I love killing dragons. :)

Apart from the missing arcade mode etc. the gameplay is actually pretty darn good.
 
FINALLY FINISHED IT. God that was fucking awful.

Anyways, been downloading a lot of VR stuff in anticipation for the Vive. Which I still don't have even a shipping confirmation on right now which is super frustrating.
 
Every game is nothing now when i started to play>> Enter the Gungeon. Its absolute blast game.
 
Yesterday, we received a letter of formal notice from US and french lawyers, acting on behalf of Blizzard Entertainment, preparing to stand trial against our hosting company OVH and ourselves in less than a week now. This means the de facto end of Nostalrius under its current form.

As soon as we received this letter, we decided to inform the team and players about the future of Nostalrius, where we have all passionately committed our time and energy as volunteers.

Nostalrius Begins PvP, Nostalrius Begins PvE & Nostalrius TBC and all related servers will be definitively shutdown at 23:00 server time on the 10th of April 2016, if our hosting company keeps the server online for that long. It feels kind of unreal, but we want to continue to serve our players as we did, and the best we can in the remaining time

So yeah. I got my hunter to like level 20, but it was way, way to crowded for me. I do have chars in their teens on both TBC and WotLK servers, I want to play on on one of them, but I can't really decide which one. They changed some things for WotLK I don't like, but otoh I really liked Northrend...
 
DONE!!!

I started Diablo III a few weeks back and finished the original campaign, just started the expansion.
 
That's what it says for every game you get 100% in.

Yeah I did a Long Saturday night when I first got D3. I know normal and the next 2 difficulty levels took me like 8 hours to burn thru, The expansion is decent. I did some of the league tourney runs too but lost my interest & went back to PoE. Started on act 4 merciless the other night and finally got to lvl 70 and running maps.
I found D3 too easy to lvl and the same with the gear. It is a good time killer for me.
 
I play WG/OE games. not sure about F4.
 
Such a difficult game to master, almost to the point of being annoying, but shit when you get it right it feels sooooooooooooo good.

Can i play doom 4 beta if i have a copy of wolf the new order foy my xbox?
 
I finished FC3: Blood Dragon sooner than expected. Completed all missions and got all collectibles in less than 8 hours. Well, at least it's a really good game and now I can look forward to playing something else. Maybe I'll play some older RPGs on an emulator.
 
Went decidedly old(er) school yesterday. Installed and played Caesar IV for several hours. Then, I decided my retail copy of American McGee's Alice, in pristine condition, and released in 2000 would not go to waste.

After about an hour and a half of :banghead:, it is running and playing on W10! :clap:

Wow, I remember playing Caesar 2 !!! It directly competed with simcity.
 
Caesar III or bust. The pinnacle of the genre is Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom. Lehtis was supposed to bring the genre back, and it did it almost too true to the old things. I've seriously been thinking about how to make a good, modern city builder, true to Impressions/BreakAway, but deeper. I wish I could code, then I would see if one could mod Emperor somehow.
 
I caved and bought Battlefield Gothic: Armada, and @RCoon I can't wait for your review on this title once it is released in a month (4/21 right?) but so far this is a damn fine game!

It is on a 2D plane like Rebel Galaxy, so its more like sea faring ships in space in a control sense. But it works very very well for tactical strategy.

The action, the sounds, the visual presentation, the lore that there is access to in the beta is all great so far! There are a few bugs here and there, but the game looks and runs great overall. It feels very well polished and I'm absolutely happy with my investment of this title. It's more an ARTS than standard RTS...as you battle across the Gothic system you gain repore, which allows you to spend on upgrading your fleet and buying new ships, adding admirals, etc. So far it is incredible...though I haven't tried MP yet and I've only done a couple of the missions available in the prologue. The combat is very weighty and it is really really really fun to ram other ships with your own if you can time it right. This is a space ARTS done right with the WH40K theme...love it!

I also bought into another title called Shallow Space:

This title has some very strong promise with it, kind of melting Homeworld, Nexus TJI and grand strategy into a mixing pot. The development is on the slow side, but they are constantly updating and taking all feedback and working with the community , the graphics are very nice, ship customization is pretty damn good, and the battles are great thus far. The next big update coming soon is supposed to unlock a bunch more to do and experience. I usually am over supporting titles..and this one is an alpha stage...but it's very well polished for an alpha and I feel I've already gotten my $15 worth out of it.

So far what they have created with this title is nothing short of exciting, and very promising...I hope they can deliver a finished product this year...but as-long-as they communicate and keep working with the community as well as they have a chance of something really amazing here for fans that want a 3d space-fleet grand strategy RTS-style game. Which I do...damn I gotta stop browsing Steam after payday! lol!

But I'm having a blast with my investments, and that's what matters...I spent a lot of time researching each before biting the bullet...each offers something I want. Win! :toast:
