ServeTheServant Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 I never really got into Civ V. I played a lot of Civ IV, but when I tried Civ V, it just didn't feel the same, and it kinda put me off. It felt too...simplified. Too streamlined, if you get my drift. Kinda like they were dumbing it down. No offense or anything, it just didn't feel like the same type of game to me. I started out preferring Civ IV, but Civ V grew on me as I played it more, especially as each expansion came out. The combat especially is hard to go back from -- being limited to one combat unit per tile makes multiplayer battles so much more strategic, its not all just unit composition and numbers now. Alpha Centauri's still better though. Quote
eclipsezero Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 Replaying Dark Souls before I start DS2. Just arrived at the Depths as dinner for the resident chef :C EDIT: Also Dragon Age Origins with all the DLC for some reason. Guess this will be the trilogy I play this year D: Pirate Assassin Creed in between the two for variety. Quote
Zenophilious Posted April 26, 2014 Posted April 26, 2014 I got Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning on sale on Steam, with all of the DLC, and so far, it's pretty good. Not the best RPG I've ever played, but the combat is really well done. It has some of the best gameplay I've seen in an RPG. Quote

Not the best RPG I've ever played, but the combat is really well done. It has some of the best gameplay I've seen in an RPG. I remember getting that for free on ps plus and it's really funny how much you can screw over the npcs. Demon gaze is really fun, the bosses and enemies can get difficult. Now I remember why I love dungeon crawlers. Quote
Flutterz Posted April 26, 2014 Posted April 26, 2014 Getting back into Fallout: New Vegas, no where near as good as 3 but it's still fun nonetheless. Really? I found NV more entertaining. Have you played the first 2? (I haven't, by the way) Quote
ServeTheServant Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Really? I found NV more entertaining. Have you played the first 2? (I haven't, by the way) I thought NV was a better game, but Fallout 3 just felt like it had a more immersive atmosphere. Quote
alvarux Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Just playing Elsword and phantasy star 2, quite fun games to play online. Quote
Nagisa_Fawkes Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 It's not what I "AM" playing, but I'll be playing it shortly, DayZ, I'm just waiting for 05/10 so I can afford the headset and the game. Quote
Tawm Posted April 29, 2014 Posted April 29, 2014 Replaying Planescape: Torment currently. I previously played a couple of hours of Wildstar over the beta weekend. Good fun. Quote
salmon_samurai Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 Fire Emblem: Awakening, and Harvest Moon: A New Beginning. Loving every second of both. Awhile back I started up a new playthrough of Final Fantasy 7... I think I started Majora's Mask about a month ago but forgot how much I hated Great Bay and quit. lol Quote
Scars Unseen Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 Dark Souls 2 has been making my hours disappear. It's been a while since I've been pulled into a video game this heavily. I've also got Fract OSC waiting for me if I can ever pull myself away from DS2 long enough to try it. Quote
K450 Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 Wizard level 1291. I haven't even started raking in the mana. I've seen some have grade 60 by wave 8. Grade 52 killgem dealing septillions of damage and a grade 54 mana gem generating billions of mana per frame. Quote
Yukiru Posted May 5, 2014 Posted May 5, 2014 Played Metal Gear Rising: Revengence and got stuck in the final boss. Also, I usually play this game when bored. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBjGZj5rlqY Quote
SilverLi Posted May 5, 2014 Posted May 5, 2014 I am playing Europa Universalis 4, Dota 2, Agarest Zero at the moment. And a couple of games I always return to when I am bored. Quote
madvanced Posted May 5, 2014 Posted May 5, 2014 I'm not playing single players at the moment(apart from VN's), When I feel like playing anything on steam I either play Insurgency or CS:GO. Quote
itsJazz Posted May 5, 2014 Posted May 5, 2014 I'm playing Apollo Justice right now (would that be considered a vn...? Considering it's predecessors are on Fuwa now). Alas... There are so many questions I need answers to after beginning the game, but I'm only on the second turnabout. I wish there were more than just three Phoenix Wright games I liked his style. I'm hoping to play Edgeworth's game as well after finishing Apollo's. Quote
Darkshine Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 Tales of Graces. Have finished the main story and now going to the Lineage and Legacies arc. Quote
Chocolat Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 Playing Legend of Zelda Twilight princess, thought I have some problems with the chase. Quote
solidbatman Posted May 7, 2014 Author Posted May 7, 2014 Started Atelier Meruru Plus last night. Also been playing Fallout New Vegas when mods don't break it. Quote
Guest Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 I almost never play video games (with the exception of osu! ) But I'm giving : Child of light and Contrast a try Child of light is really pleasant to play so far. Quote
Funyarinpa Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 Sanctum 2 and Battlefield nowadays. I will probably start another VN and forget all about them soon though. Quote
zoom909 Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 Held a retro gaming night this week (just 3 guys playing MAME basically): GAME/STUDIO/YEAR Michael Jackson's Moonwalker/Sega/1990 PuliRula/Taito/1991 Warlords/Atari/1980 Raiden Fighters Jet/Seibu/1998 * Espgaluda/Cave/2003 * Pochi & Nyaa/Taito/2002 Money Idol Exchanger/Face/1997 * * = games where I turned in an above average performance :-) Also, I didn't SUCK at anything this time around, surprisingly.

eclipsezero Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 Star Wars Battlefront 2 and Jedi Knight Jedi Academy while slowly limping through Tomb of the Giants in Dark Souls. Quote
