Spoiler:
yeah, this morning I just got to the first 'end' it seems. Man, that... scene had me hysterical(haven't really felt like this in a while). Starting again, but it seems something's missing... :(
Great game so far, though.

PC users, did anyone buy Clockwork City yet? I'm tempted to create a thread for it but I think I'm probably the only one hyped for it.

I recently finished Project Zero (or Fatal Frame, if you're North American) and I rather liked it. It's not one of the best survival horror games I've played but it was good, glad I got it. Much like Siren Blood Curse, which I played last October, a lot of the appeal ties around a single mechanic, in Siren it was the 2nd Person camera and here it's the 'Camera Obscura' which is a magic camera that you use to take pictures of ghosts in order to fight them. So mechanically it's just a Resident Evil style game with first person combat but how the camera works is really genius. You need to focus on these creepy ass ghost to build up a charge of power, you can't look away or fire off like a machine and it sets up really well for being spooked by a ghost rushing at you or creeping up on you. The combat itself sets you up to be scared.

I kind of hate calling things like this a gimmick because it's just a strong mechanic that the game uses well.

Been playing some System Shock 2. Pretty awesome. Aged well imo. Really creepy. I was wearing this armor. I needed a strength implant to use it. When my implant died, my armor jumped off me and scared the [&@%!] out of me. That's happened more than once lmao.

Still playing Skyrim, after about 5,000 hours, I'm still not tired of it. I switched to the special edition and the Survival Mode gave it a new life! :)

I also recently bought Conarium alongside an old game I reinstalled: eXperience 112, but I always come back to Skyrim...

You have to be a registered user to post links, I’m pretty sure (you’ve gotta post 10 times or ask a mod to be registered).

Also, wow. 5000 is a lot. I played some Skyrim, as well, last night. I think I’m finally gonna do the Civil War quests.

I'm a registered user, I wouldn't be able to post otherwise. Ten posts before being able to post links? Maybe. Let's see. :)

She means confirmed users, but ya, pretty much. You won't be able to post non-UESP links till your confirmed, which can either occur automatically(10 posts & a week since activation) or via a Mod(but not this mod, I am after all very terrible at my job)

ME: Andromeda, and enjoying it for the same reason as Bethesda titles: super solid open world exploration gameplay. Too bad the squadmates aren't as compelling as the ones from previous games. No Miranda, Tani (sp), or EDI for example. The story is generic (so far) and the voice acting/writing is cringeworthy in many places, but that's forgivable due to the beauty of the setting and aforementioned exploration. These sorts of games have an inherent difficulty telling rich, personal main stories, in my opinion, though significant character development is still possible for and between individual NPCs and typically in the context of "side quests."

I'm currently about halfway through Danganronpa (the first one, in case anyone here knows the series), and I've also just started Super Mario Odyssey after buying a Switch yesterday! Both are absolutely great so far.
Start the groove.

Got me gold armour and me little purple octopus pal. Pop, pop, pop. Cute.

Recently finished playing Death of the Outsider and I liked it a lot, Dishonored is a really fantastic series and wondering where they're going to go now.

I'm currently alternating between playing Demon's Souls (because I want to play it before the multiplayer goes down in March) and I think I'm gonna start Catherine soon which I got ages ago for like £4 bundled with other games and I just never played. Alternating between the two is probably a good way to go.

I'm supposedly playing through The Last of Us, but in all honesty I mostly play Overwatch; that game is pretty darn addicting.

^I get the feel. I keep meaning to play Witcher 2.. But Destiny 2 keeps dragging me back in, it's borderline abuse *Jealously looks at Kiths playing Overwatch* Fun, I remember that...

Haha, sameee. I have all three of the Witcher games now and I still haven't finished the first, or even touched the second two. 'Tis a sad state of affairs.

Oh, I also started Oxenfree (and still haven't picked it up again of course *sigh*); that's a pretty cool game so far.

It's a supernatural thriller adventure game that was free on GOG around christmas. I hadn't heard of it before either, but someone said it was good so I picked it up. I've enjoyed it so far; it's a pretty game, very atmospheric.

Ah yes, just looked it up on google, and I recall seeing it on the Microsoft store for free. Don't know if I pre-downloaded it or not tho, or if I'll ever play it

Speaking of, there are a couple of indie games on PC I seriously wished got ported to all/some of the consoles >__< especially those that A) would be smash hits and B) functionally wouldn't be difficult to port

Case in point: Darkest Dungeon. Oxygen Not Included. And of course, god damn Hollow Knight ;-;
