Grim Dawn of course.  :)
Banished a bit - but I can't really get beyond a certain point with it since I haven't managed to get to grips with the trading system yet.
Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom
Children of the Nile
Zeus: Master of Olympus

Haven't played any of the city builders for a while now though.  But I still enjoy them as a change from constant hack 'n' slash fighting.  I like watching my citizens going about their daily routines.  Looking forward to Crate's new city builder.

Pazuzu, you must get back into GD as well.  There's their new expansion to try out and a couple of new masteries with it as well, lots of new stuff to find, etc.  I split my time between TQAE and GD, a few days here, a few days there.  For the expansion playtesting though it was all GD for about 2.5 months.  I'm really enjoying the Inquisitor mastery - I've been wanting a dual wield gunslinger for ages, but can't really get my head around the Necromancer.  Can't seem to decide the best way to play with that one.  :-\

I was an original KS Backer for GD (as well). I found TQ's setting and setting diversity much superior to GD's though. Also, some things in GD were worked out poorly or not at all, like the original concept of having salt as the ingame currency, which would make much more sense than iron bits.

At any given time i will play these:

Grim Dawn
Star Craft 1 + 2
Warcraft 3
Hearthstone
Borderlands 1 + 2 + Pre Sequel
Dark Souls 1 +2 +3
Bloodborne (probably my favorite "souls" game)

I am terribly outdated with new video games these days. I barely even pay attention to anything that comes out anymore, though I am a bit excited about the news of Dark Souls 1 remaster.

I'd actually like to own a Nintendo Switch sometime for Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and the Mario Kart game.

Got both, but im playing more HD from steam

Post by: Deepblue on 25 April 2018, 18:14:43
Got tons of games, don't really know what specific types I like really.
Games with a really strong stealth gameplay don't interest me as much though, I suppose that narrows it down.

Don't what specific games I could mention, could always post my Steam game list or something.
I barely finish any of them because they get too hard too fast. Still play them regardless though.

Hello, I mostly play older games since i don't have a very good pc, and mostly rts and 4x with some rpgs in the mix. Warcraft 3, Alpha Centauri, Baldur's Gate 2 and Fallout 1 have had a permanent install in my pc since forever :p .
 Atm i'm mostly playing Dawn of War Dark Crusade, Darkest Dungeon and (very sporadically)Sins of a Solar Empire, besides TQ of course.

microtransactions
those games where you try to make a strong toon only to get beat up by a grade schooler because his dad is rich? C:-)

Yup, still playing Bad Company 2 because of that, DOOM 1995 occasionally, and Total Annihilation or Age of Mythology for LAN fun.

Of course old games are better, it's all about letting people know this and not about fun at all.
It's all about letting everyone know new games are too easy and saying you beat everything on hardmode and it was too easy.

It's all about letting people know they're gaming cancer for not beating new games on easy and not about fun at all.

those games where you try to make a strong toon only to get beat up by a grade schooler because his dad is rich? C:-)

I've never played those types of games, where the hell does everyone find them?
It's like the ones where the dlc is literally half the game or where the game is so easy you can beat it in a day on the hardest.
Y'know....the "scam games"...

@Deepblue

What are you smoking today?

It's not that modern games are too easy, it's lootboxes, DLC's (any DLC's), always online requirements, no splitscreen/co-op/offline sinngle-copy multiplayer, (H/B)ollywood level over the top drama scripts, constant ludicrously fast pacing, stats and achievement obsessions, that make them bad. We're actually missing the fun here.

Aren't free games.....well....free?
How are the devs supposed to get paid?

I don't really count free games.

I guess I'm too much of a cancer "gamer" to agree.
I probably don't deserve to play games right?
Title: Re: Whats else you play ?
Post by: Medea Fleecestealer on 30 April 2018, 15:12:27
Either through ads in the game or via the micro transactions.
Title: Re: Whats else you play ?
Post by: Deepblue on 30 April 2018, 15:17:32
I dunno, I've just never played a game I've never had fun with.

I just look at a game, think "that looks like fun", buy it and have fun.
That's it.

The problems are not free games, at least not free games themselves. I'm not counting those games either.

The problem is triple A premium titles, sold at full price or above, using the same money making model as those free games, and the number of decent non-free non-scam titles declining because they can't compete with either those titles or free to play games.
Title: Re: Whats else you play ?
Post by: Deepblue on 30 April 2018, 15:33:30
I guess I've just never played any games where the microtransactions make you unbeatable.
Only played ESO and TF2 (where the microtransactions are purely cosmetic or don't give you an edge over other players and it's still purely about skill)

It's perfectly alright to monetize free games, of course. But when it comes to skewing balance and user enjoyment for the couple extra dollars is when it becomes a no-no. Newer AAA games are trying to implement this in paid games...

just started playing torchlight 2, its very fun game!
Title: Re: Whats else you play ?
Post by: Tauceti on 02 May 2018, 11:26:56
Often playing a session of Disciples II, Heroes III or V.
Now i replay Spellforce, a nice mix of RPG and RTS, not that far of a hack'n slash actually.
Title: Re: Whats else you play ?

Disciples 2! Man thats such a good game, really digged the tone of that world, such a cool medieval setting.

It's never too late to talk about the most amazing, atmospheric and immersive RPG of all time - Gothic 2: Night of the Raven. My all-time favorite video game, together with its predecessor, and the one I recommend the most to every fan of the genre.

On a pure role playing level, the first two Gothic games are among the best in the genre. They've pioneered many immersive world building aspects that we don't see in other open world RPG's, even to this day.

But other than that, there's something else that is special about these games, that I just can't quite explain. It has to be experienced.
