So with the film and music threads still going and being discussed... why don't we get some discussion going on something on topic to the board? What other games are you playing now?

DH:HR, very good.

Dishonoured, great. Just got the 2 DLCs for that now.

I have spare Steam keys for Mirror's Edge and Dead Space. Anyone interested who hasn't played any of them, yet?

#6767 posted by negke on 2013/08/20 22:23:02

Mirror's Edge went to otp.

#6768 posted by erc on 2013/08/25 01:30:19

I apply for Dead Space.

Btw.

I have no idea how the giveaways work, but my Steam username is ercicin.

It's a key that you need to activate in Steam. I sent it to the email address in your profile. Have fun!

In other news, Amnesia - A Machine for Pigs is finally released on 10 September! necros rejoice!

Thanks!

I'm so happy for that. :)

I had to stop playing the first one...

I liked the first one but my interest waned when I discovered this tactic:

1. Monster appears
2. Run to the nearest corner
3. Stick your head in it
4. Leave the pc, go get a glass of water or something
5. Continue playing

I completely ruined it for myself I know, but I can't help taking advantage of an exploit.

Wasn't a fan of Dear Esther either, and apparently those two developers teamed up for AMFP. Esther was just a shoddy HL2 mod, for me at least.

Having said all that, Machine is still tempting...

And Here's A Video

Bit of shit trailer, just some dude walking around in pitch dark almost, and nothing actually happening. Doom3 looked better than this.

Thats

#6776 posted by ijed on 2013/08/26 15:15:20

A lot of the game actually. But yeah, the game play shown in that one is pretty staid.

But bear in mind if your expectations are for an atypical FPS then you'd be disappointed anyway.

What its strong on are the storytelling, environment design and raw fear.

Tried those games a few times but got bored pretty fast... I'dd rather play Myst.

#6778 posted by necros on 2013/08/26 15:44:09

That IS the game. There's no fighting of any kind.

#6779 posted by Spiney on 2013/08/26 17:07:25

There's also your character crying, shivering, moving like a slug and breathing heavily for no apparent reason :P

"too Boring"

#6782 posted by negke on 2013/08/26 19:27:04

More like too scary!

#6783 posted by [Kona] on 2013/08/27 01:00:16

I still plan on playing it, and the first Amnesia that I haven't played yet. I just hope they're better than the Penumbra's.

Feels very much P2W...
I don't get all this upgrady crap... I never liked RPG's to begin with, and it's EVERYWHERE.
Really makes me wish ingame advertising worked out so there was some other F2P model...

#6787 posted by erc on 2013/08/28 21:23:42

Have anyone here played Mirror's Edge or F.E.A.R. 2? If so, quick thoughts?

#6788 posted by metlslime on 2013/08/28 21:35:52

Mirror's Edge -- I liked it a lot. It's a first-person parkour puzzle game. The puzzles are cool. The environments are cool. The art style is cool. They have some shooting but manage to balance it so shooting is not the ultimate solution to most problems. The story is good enough, but not critical to enjoying the game. The cinematics are kind of budget, but are few enough and don't drag on.

Agreed

#6789 posted by DaZ on 2013/08/28 22:59:22

definitely worth playing Mirrors Edge. Super awesome art style and parkour stuff.

The actual shooting is actually quite bad unfortunately, luckily its not the focus and doesn't go on for too long.

I haven't played FEAR 2 but I enjoyed the original quite a lot from what I remember.
