What are you playing?

[Hockster]

I just resubbed to SWTOR. Haven't played in a while, lots of new story content. And no one tells a story like Bioware.

I didn't notice that, yes I have found it

You saved my life.

Edit: even at 1980x1200 Graphics doesn't change and my GPU doesn't even bother to go above 1721, as said before, the Game it's too old and it doesn't take advantage of MSAA or any AA setting.

Height or width?

As the link says, Deferred Lighting makes AA impossible. I think it had to be done in post processing. That said, with high enough resolution, AA is never necessary.

Since I just hit 63 hours in Mafia 3, I decided to take a little time to try out Shadow Warrior 2, since I had it from GOG almost a week and hadn't even installed it.

I played an hour, and came away...ok. It's not awe-inspiring, but all the elements from Flying Wild Hog's Shadow Warrior 2013 are there, including jokes. It's fast paced, visuals are slightly improved from before, just brainless, relaxing fun. I give it a not earth-shattering step up from the last one, so far.

i finally decided to get ... (that and ... Project Genome for fun ... still a early access and 15.99chf but it feels as if Mass Effect and Defiance mixed up together, although it really give a Alpha impression, well it's in Alpha ... nonetheless interesting.)

playing with a Xbox One controller... i might need to retake a flightstick or a HOTAS ...

almost wanting to test the Speedlink Airrow as my etailer do a 50% promo on it ...

Very true

 

[FordGT90Concept]

I'd argue DONTNOD (Remember Me, Life Is Strange) does, if not beats Bioware.


I've been playing a little of everything (Big Pharma, Viscera Cleanup Detail, PAYDAY 2, Sanctum 2, Divinity: Original Sin, Company of Heroes 2). I'm seriously thinking about getting into The Sims 3 now.

Don't! It's a serious time killer!!

I've just spent around 4-5 hours in Beyond Good and Evil. This game is superb! I love the music, the adventure, the stealth, the interaction, the story - it almost feel like a Zelda game. I haven't completed it yet but I'm seriously recommending people give it a try. It supports a controller by the way, I can use my Xbox One controller straight away after launching it without any adjustments. One con though, the camera could use some more work.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

Yeah, that's why Ubi is making a sequel. The game launched at about the worst time ever even though so it didn't sell well. I like it better than the Zelda games, to be honest.

Definitely an excellent game! I'm glad you found it.

It's thanks to Ubi30. I'm really glad they did it. After I completed Prince of Persia: Sands of Time and Rayman Origins, I soon bought their sequels. I'm even considering getting the Wild Run expansion for The Crew. If BG&E has a satisfying ending, I might look into the sequel they've announced.

i think i still should have the original somewhere and also a free copy that came with a computer revue (plus the one on Uplay... since i have FC4 nonsteam, but i am glad i have Uplay The Crew and Beyond Good & Evil free? nice treat!)

i really need to read the last post before writing ... yep totally that!

20 hours in non lethal Deus Ex HR, second run in Hengsha. And man it is way too easy to get praxis kits (upgrades for augmentations) in this game. When the transport was shot down I had 17 praxis, I fully upgraded cloaking so I could save Malik in a timely manner, and now I'm back up to 13 or so. Playing on normal only though, but I think the difficulty settings only changes health and combatm which I don't do.

 

[AlienIsGOD]

Started playing WoW again, Legion is prolly the best exp since wotlk IMO. Also been playing DOOM in Vulkan to give my 480 a workout

 

[GreiverBlade]

borrowed a friend account for testing The Solus Project (on it atm) definitely going to get that one for myself



@rtwjunkie 's thanks to your owned game list on steam that i discovered that one

 

[R-T-B]

I recently picked up Silent Hunter 5 again. It still looks pretty good. The base game left the over raw (as in not half baked, not baked at all) but modders have saved it pretty well with my latest checkin.

It's awesome.

You can save Malik??

Man, 3 playthrough and I thought her death was scripted.

Might as well install the first game and replay everything.

What? You didn't realized that?

The first thing in my mind when I got to that part was to save her no matter how hard it takes. It took me like 2-3 tries so it wasn't really that difficult.

So, time for a 4th playthrough?

I did try during my first playthrough though, but didn't succeed (due to sneaking), but when having cloak and energy maxed out and a million energy candies it was easy. Everything's easy with cloaking, sadly.

Spoiler

Did the big bot spawn for you too? During the first attempts without cloaking, in this playthrough, there was no bot, but when I got cloaking it basically just appeared).

BTW, Mankind Divided seems to run ok on dual cores, so I might have to get that soonish.

I know. I only had cloak around the last 2 missions and realized how easy sneaking was with cloak. I'm glad I didn't have it too early though cause otherwise, like you said, everything is easy.

Sure....rub it in, I already feel like a dumbass.

Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay. Bleieve it or not this is my first playthrough. Back in 2004 there is so much games to play around that I forgot to play this one. Great game so far.

It really is a great game. I don't know how so many passed it over. It got great reviews at the time. I guess maybe it didn't get marketed very well. I played it back then and recently played the enhanced edition. Assault on Dark Athena is good too.

It's probably being engulfed by massive amounts of good game released that year. Doom3, Half Life 2, Far Cry, Need For Speed Underground 2, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, Call of Duty: United Offensive and Unreal Tournament 2004 released the same year. This game gets a good review everywhere but I don't see a lot of people playing it. I'm going to plau Assault on Dark Athena next.
