I don't think I have much to say about it yet since I'm being terribly inefficient and playing 3 games parallel at the moment. <.<

I think someone has gone fade crazy. ;)

As for what i'm playing at the moment, i'm playing nothing as all of my gaming time shall be swallowed up by Dragon Age Inquistion. Anyone posts any spoilers and i will personally throw a dirty teabag at you.

On an unrelated note, i can't remember the last time i was this hyped for a game! God, the next 5 days will feel like long ones.

just finished the new Wolfenstein, loved the world and design, but i found the shooting gameplay to be a real drag compared to Destiny. Also, i wish final boss fights would go away forever.

Dragon Age is out here tomorrow, I will spend all day in the character creator, can't wait.

after 240 hours in Inquisition, I've moved on to Alien: Isolation, which is superb so far, and a hardcore game, i didn't realize how much i missed save points that are a huge struggle to get to.

Got some smaller games at Steam sale (don't have time this month for anything major), I've been mostly playing Terraria and Endless Space, both are great fun so far, they have this "just one more turn" aspect and are easy to pick up at any time, even if i just have half an hour for gaming.

Jade Empire and Valkyria Chronicles.

I loved JE as a kid, and it still holds up today. I decided to torture myself and turn it up to grand master difficulty, despite being rusty as hell. :lol:

I gave up on a playthrough of DA2, so I'm currently playing some Skyrim and Fallout to pass my time.

The last couple of months I've been playing a lot of Fallout: New Vegas (Ultimate Edition/PC) and Borderlands (GOTY/X360), with some Skyrim (Plain Vanilla Edition/X360) thrown in here and there.

Played through Metro 2033 (original version) in 2 days (well, more like an afternoon and a morning). I got the game free off of Humble Bundle a while ago, and only just got around to installing it a couple of days ago.
Hidden:
The game was generally disappointing; not enough actual ''game'' in the game. Lots of walking around looking at dull scenery, or following an AI companion around, or just strolling in a straight line not doing much of anything.

I hate it when a game gives me all sorts of tools and then never ever opens up an opportunity for me to use them; I have three gun slots, each with their own type of ammunition, and also spare guns I could trade out with their own ammo as well, but most of the levels in the game where you are on your own (not being backed up by NPCs) have either 10 to 20 human enemies who are usually bunched into a single location (one grenade = half the level over), or they have about 4 or 5 mutant enemies, who are just a nuisance and more irritating to fight than fun, when they are diving inside you and sucking up damage like crazy. Then if you add in the stealth, which is only really useful in the 3 or 4 times you fight humans (and sometimes almost necessary, if you happen to bugger up your ammo supplies), everything becomes even more useless when you only require throwing knives to beat everything.

So in the end, the game just feels too short and empty. The story's fine, nothing amazing, but all the characters are just forgettable. One of the reasons for that I'd say is that everybody looks and sounds the same, and I'm pretty sure some of them even have the same face. But even then, everyone seems to act the same as well, or at least I felt they did.

So there's my stupid opinion.


What exactly was the ''click left mouse button to use lighter'' option for? I realise the character uses his lighter when he throws grenades, but he does that using the regular attack command. I couldn't find a single time in the entire game when you can use the lighter function for anything, it's just 'there'.

Revisiting Skyrim after loading it down with way too many mods. Oddly enough, I'm enjoying it almost as much as my first few playthroughs.

I'm playing KOTOR and afterwards I'm going to play KOTOR 2. I'm liking it so far but I hate the Jedi. No Jedi, emotions aren't a bad thing. Hell in Empire Strikes Back Yoda's advice to Luke was basically to just let all his friends get killed. Thankfully Luke didn't do that because screw the Jedi. Also I fail to see the moral distinction between killing someone with a lightsaber and killing someone by choking them with the force. Not that the Sith are any better. They're a bunch of stupid evil [&@%!] who murder everyone. Ideally I could tell both groups to [&@%!] off and just do what I think is right. I've heard KOTOR 2 reflects my thoughts towards the Jedi and the Sith so that should be enjoyable.

Also it has a terrible binary good/evil alignment system and it punishes you if you don't go all one or all the other. I have problems with D&D's alignment system but at least it's better than this.
So we have come to solve every squabble in the village personally?

Been playing Dragon Age:Inquisition with my own world state! Am a Male Quanari two handed warrior and Whirlwind is overpowered due to how many hits you can do until stamina is depleted. Nearly at the end of the game but just doing side quests and pretty much focusing on side quests at the moment. The shards are [&@%!] though and [&@%!] the jumping. Whoever thought it was a good idea to map the same button to talk is an [&@%!] as i jump when i want to talk to an NPC. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN! Do wish there was a lot more armour but oh well. Tis far better then DA2 although the plot does pretty much [&@%!] itself at the end of the game and goes "[&@%!] it, here's the ending part."

I will be ordering another copy of Mass Effect 2 on payday as my copy is bloody [&@%!] and causes too many bugs that i know don't exist. Sadly, i can't get the damn Trilogy in the UK on PS3 because for some reason, EA did not put that much effort into publishing it over here thus getting a copy is almost impossible and i flat out refuse to pay £40+ just for Mass Effect one. *sigh* I may have to do the one thing that i thought i would never do and actually buy it on PSN, if it's cheap once i am on unlimited broadband. Oh and yes, i shall buy the DLCs for all the game.

I will be buying Asura's Wrath and that game is [&@%!] insane! THe first boss is.... look, just go onto Youtube and look up Wyzen. Let's just say that Kratos has [&@%!] on Asura's rage.

Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin on PC. It's really fun, though it's also the struggle you'd expect.

Going to try out Hotline Miami later tonight.

I'm trying my hand at Morrowind again. There has never been a game I have more /wanted/ to like, but I've always had a bit of trouble getting into it. Maybe I'm just not big on reading.

Arkham Knight.

Should more be named Arkham Racing
And it'd make a horrible racing game at that. The car controls are clunky, and 70% of this goddamn game is made around the Batmobile. Nothing else. Not the cool little gizmos we've got now! Just that goddamn car.
