What are you playing?

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.
If you enjoyed Baldur's Gate, take a look at Pathfinder: Kingmaker vids... it might intrigue you....


Anyone want to go Old School?

Doom 2 total conversion mod Total Chaos is finally finished. Needs the Doom2.wad to run.

Total Chaos is a total conversion mod for Doom 2 that runs on the GZDoom source port. The mod is a survival horror set on a remote island known as Fort Oasis. The island was once run by a community of coal miners which one day suddenly disappeared, leaving behind the abandoned concrete jungle to waste away. Something, clearly, has gone very wrong with this place. Upon your arrival at Fort Oasis, you receive a strange radio transmission. Someone wants to he found.

Ever try Consortium?

No, never heard of it, will google gamplay of it in a few mins, thanks.


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. :D

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

I also have a full steam library of games, I even download torrents with pirated content that I never click on, have to stop doing that :D

Yeah, I gave it a try, gog version. As soon as I saw it was being built in unity, I had a good idea of what to expect. The hunch didn't fail me. It seems new developers are going with pack mentality, and everyone is producing garbage. I had a feeling I was eating at mcdonalds while playing that, like someone just took stuff and packed it for me to eat it. Needless to say, I disliked it.

I quitted pirating about 3 years ago, tho I have few images from games which I own, but as I don't own an optical drive anymore.. I still love Heroes III ;)
 
I am playing Hearthstone, Magic the Arena beta, Final Fantasy XIV, and To The Moon (then A Bird Story, and Finding Paradise). I am also playing some Black Ops 4 since I won it for free on a giveaway last month on TPU Giveaway thread. It's not bad, I am enjoying it, I mostly just play against BOTS though, its more fun that way to me lol
 
A question that I wanted to ask for some time. How is Odyssey in terms of just open world roaming ? Is there anything to do ? Ubisoft games have always been fun to free roam, I love to pop into WD2 and just roam around creating mayhem all over the city :D In fact I just did

Heroes 3 is my neighbours fav game, it was built at bad times for gaming industry, but at good times for gamers. One of the best ever made. I still have a gog version of it somewhare on hdd, in case my neighbour crashes his OS :D

And you should really get a case which supports two optical drives and get an optical drive if for nothing else, then for clean install of windows from original dvd. The second slot might be usefull too, I'm saving up to buy Scythe krocraft extra pack. You can still get cases like that, even with all the modern stuff, like psu shroud and RGB...
 
Drinking beer and playing Skate 2. This is better than 3, though I miss darkslides and the better camera angle. Otherwise this is better.

It's 2018, I don't install Windows from discs anymore.. installed from USB drive for ages. ;)

Though an USB drive would be fine for my old games.. :)

edit: and hell no, I'm not changing my PC case, just installed a GPU waterblock few days ago and I'M NOT GONNA mess with the h2o loop soon..! :D

USB drives can be written on. And if you're downloading new builds of windows from internet, I sincerely hope you have a reliable source for it. I'm a bit security savvy, and prefer dvd and always recommend it to people. Yes, it feels like a century old technology, but it gets job done on every machine. Securely.

Think TW3. I’m not the first to say this as that type of game, and nearly as complete. In fact, there is more to find and do in the world, complete with side quests, or not, as you wish, than in the 3 main quests.

I’ve got 144 hours in, and only 71% through the primary main quest. Obviously I’ve done a lot of open world traveling and exploring. :D
 
I'm not talking about side quests, just open world interaction. Is the world a living and breathing creation ?

I just answered that. I said side quests, or not.

It is a living breathing world. In fact a couple weeks ago I made a point about how populated the world is and that Bethesda could take some pointers on how to put more than 20 citizens in a “city.”

Point him here and tell him to download the XXL mod. Also to check out any map/campaign by Timothy Duncan.

Also, what kind of games are you into? I think you should dive into the deep end of the pond, just to try something new.

Neighbour doesn't have internet access. The first one you linked reminds me of ADOM, Ancient Domains Of Mistery, which I used to play a very long time ago, which was basically a MUD with built in ASCII graphics. MUD's I haven't played for even a longer time then that. But I assume you were being sarcastic? I think toxicity should be reported at this forum, according to rules? Anyway, yes, I'm a dinasour, but at least I don't stare at my screen like a zombie and scream into microphone, nor do I want to see my kids, if any, do that. I'm still a gamer at heart and would play just about anything that has soul. You can keep your modern clones, thank you.

Oh, I apologize if I came across as sarcastic. I really recommend both of those games, and if I recall correctly ADOM is one of the inspirations to Dwarf Fortress. Both DF and Aurora belong to the games of yesteryear, that's why I recommended them. I've played them more than I'm willing to admit (but I've never been good at them), and if you put time into them they'll be very rewarding. And they're so different that if you can't stand modern games they might just be the thing, the other reason I posted them. :)
 
I've taken the foot of the gas pedal (GTA V, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, R6 Siege, B04) and gone back to simpler times (Modded MC, Slime rancher, Portal, HL2, older COD's)

Frick can often times come off abrasive, but I believe here he was honestly providing advice :)
 
Damn, so I need a PSP... I could play with emulator, but the console has more feeling. :)
Go half way, buy the game on UMD and play it on EMU. You'll own the game and be able to play it on a big screen. PPSSPP is my EMU of choice for PSP.

That looks excellent! Trying it!

I quitted pirating about 3 years ago
I don't pirate so much as download DRM by-passes for games I own that aren't from GOG and won't run stand alone. It's not pirating if you own it.

After over a month and around ~115hrs of gameplay, I've finally completed Dragons Dogma: Dark Arisen. The game is flawed but there's so much to like about the gameplay and mechanics. I don't regret purchasing this after seeing the trailers a couple years ago. Maybe just a slight regret that I didn't start to play it earlier.
 
I ordered Odyssey, hope it'll be good. And a 500gb 860 evo just in case I can't fit it on my current drives.
 
I Bought a new game from GOG ''Project warlock'' music is epic in it :) trying to beat Ori and the Blind forest+ other games like Doom, Everspace.
 
Right now i'm playing Black Ops 2 campaign + having fun with BeamNG drive , it's pretty interesting game.
