the enemy's tendency to never look up

So they behave like modern gamers then

Probably the best semi-angsty semi-soppy story-driven teenage college girl sim around?? No srsly. I watched the bird play some of this and it seems very well done in it's genre....really quite emotional in places.

Off to play more DOOM soon, personally. 

I just prefer TG over T2 for a few reason:
- Better atmosphere
- Better textures (in the artistic sense)
- All in all it's the better game to me

Also I already have access to all the resources used in TG that I would have to import if I was mapping for T2.

Also yeah I'm hyped for Dishonored 2. 

thank you 

Anybody tried it? AFAIK it was built on IdTech 4. 

picked it up for -80% off or something a while back and only just got around to playing it. Never played any of the MGS games before but damn, this is great.

I have absolutely NO IDEA wtf is going on with the story, it's utterly bat shit mental. But the game play is refined as fuck and very satisfying.

It reminds me of XCOM in that you have a persistent base building aspect and a tactical combat element where you can use all the stuff you have researched to fuck people up.

I'd say if you love sandbox stealth games with a persistent base building aspect then definitely take a solid look at this game. I'm having a blast with it.

Note that I'm playing on pc with a xb1 controller. Can't comment on what it feels like to play with a kb/m. 

Yeah not a good idea picking MGS5 as your first entry in the series, both for story and gameplay reasons. 

I will have to look into MGS5 on the next Steam Sale. I love well polished stealth games. 

GaaaAAAaaaaAAyyyyyyyy. 

I know I'm going to repeat what has already been said here but I played through all 5 acts of Diable 3 (I have the ROS expansion.) I had it on my machine for quite a while before commiting to a game.

As with Diablo 2, I started the game on Normal expecting relative dominance against the mass enemies but having reason to fear bosses (for me Duriel, the D2 Act 2 boss, killed me numerous times and was the hardest in the whole game with Diable second.) I admit that a mix of cowardace and laziness kept me from bumping up the difficulty with my Demon Hunter and it felt like I had a cheat code on because I plowed through everything without ever dying.

Maybe Blizzard should have called Normal Easy and Hard Normal or something that would result in a peceived challenge on par with Diablo 2 which felt right for me.

I did enjoy the game. It looks great and sounds great (the music seemed better in Act 1 then the others.) I actually like the extra colours and glitter and the interface seemed good. Unlimited potions and town portals were nice but brought a slight sense of guilt since they carried no cost or inventory burden. D3 felt less grindy then D2 but that could have been the speed with which I made it though in light of no resistance. D2 had a better story but the D3 story was okay if a bit cliched. The D2 story is hard to beat - three brothers - 3 prime evils - hard to top that.

I did get my Nagelring but it happened post Act 5 while doing bounties for the sake of reaching level 70. I did bump up to Hard but I may have to go up another notch or two before I actually have to pay attention to my health globe. Naybe I'll get an itch in a year or so (I did like repeating D2) and I'll use my existing Demon hunter to redo the campaign but with proper peril. 

Note that I'm playing on pc with a xb1 controller.

I've considered buying one because some games require pressing multiple controller buttons at once to perform certain actions. This can be awkward and if not impossible to do playing the PC port on a keyboard.

Bad thing is, you usually don't find this out until after you buy the game. 

uh, ok, nevermind. 

Was hyped for it then it turned to be rather disappointing.

However, I can appreciate the second half of Act III as it was a visual splendor to play through!

Diablo II will always be the king for me. 

Amazing stuff! If you enjoyed Skyrim and Nehrim, there's no way around this mod. Quite huge and well-designed world (three+ climate zones) with lots of exploration, good story and entertaining quests. Also professional voice acting. This could easily be a DLC or a game of its own. Naturally, there are bugs and shortcomings that require some patience at times, but for a noncommercial release, that's all forgiven. Took my time with it, some 60 hours or so.

The English version is scheduled for release in August. 8 GB download. Highly recommended.

intrude 

....of shit, pointless, class-based teamplay MP / MOBA shooters that are all the fucking same that no-one is going to play...

Overwatch
Paragon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3miMIZvNWoI
Battleborn
Lawbreakers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwedep1Jt1Y
Quake Chumpions if ever released (hopefully not)

Any more?? 

Definitely a lot of entries attempting to make it big but I will have to say Overwatch is an enjoyable "sit and play" for a few hours game with friends. 

Overwatch is the game, the others are the clones. 

That I'd touch it with a fucking bargepole of course. But it got there first in the current batch. 

Yeah, I didn't even know Lawbreakers was a thing until I saw it on the Game Grave.

Paragon seems to be a more boring version. Overwatch has approach-ability, and has charming characters.

Poor Battleborn seems like it could have some merit as it has multiplayer PvE but its release was overshadowed by Blizzard's next big hit.

Who knows about Quake Champions, I am sure there will be some pull to influence micro transactions of some sort. I'll stick with OG Quake! 

Diablo 3 - Viking Version!!

Looks generic as fuck, but the gfx look really nice and the theme might well be appealing... 

Latest Trailer

Giger/Beksinski inspired FPS. Neat flesh gun (not the giger variety) at the 2:20 mark, reminiscent of PREY. 

Looks really cool, not sure what they're really going for in terms of gameplay though.
