I will be enjoying Destiny. Too bad, I heard PC players got shafted hard.

Yep, no PC version in the works at all.

Bungie said they haven't ruled it out, but they are no plans for one at this time. My guess is it does come out like a year or so later. The seething rage from the "PC Masterrace" Nazis is just pure bliss. That's what happens for being assholes

Got FF13 Lightning Returns from my local library, should be an easy Platinum.

Still have to finish X-2 HD after, and all before Destiny beta >_< (plus Curse of Naxxramaus for hearthstone)

Child of Light. Very fun game. Awesome graphics. I love Ubisoft.

Re: What games are you currently playing?

Went to the Smash Bros. Thing at Best Buy today. I'm pretty rusty and probably should have stuck to Kirby an Pikachu for the movesets I remembered, but I tried Zero Suit Samus and Wii Fit Trainer. ZSS seems to be a very serious threat while WFT seems to be more of a head game character with a lot of slow charge moves.

3DS version was on-hand, too. Very gorgeous and a smooth 60 FPS, internet screens and video never do the 3DS games justice.

Pretty much everyone that went for Megaman lost, but that's because they cared more about doing his Final Smash than playing well

Had a good time.

Battlefield Hardline is a blast.

Unfortunately stupid people manage to ruin about 40~50% of the games I join, but the underlying mechanics are good. It's like Pay Day 2 but with waaaaaay better graphics and destruction I LOVE IT!

Re: What games are you currently playing?

I discounted it entirely because it seemed way too much like it was leaning on the power fantasy to sell it.

Neither Firewind nor Angry Joe are changing that perspective.

Re: What games are you currently playing?

You should try out Divinity Dragon Commander. It is a very unique RPG/RTS/Card Game Hybrid set in the Divinity universe. It takes a lot of risks, has likeable NPCs with branching conversations and events that add a lot of reasons for repeat playthroughs, a fun political system and genuinely funny dialogue. Oh and you play someone who can turn into a dragon with a jetpack, what the fuck else do you want?

Really tough it's a game that sounds like it should never work but does and it is one of those gems that people really need to play right now, and it shows people that PC gaming is more than alive.

Angry Joe does a very good review of it, you should check it out:

Re: What games are you currently playing?

Been following Divinity Original Sin, though I didn't buy the "Early Access" version because I frankly think that the entire concept is bullshit. I am a huge "Beta is beta I'll hold of criticism until it is out" person until this came about. Then I started to think "Wait, if you'r going to CHARGE me for this, you bet I'm going to damn well treat it as a full release.". That is the main reason why I don't touch any early access games anymore, it just seems pointless to pay for the privilege to QA someone's game for them because they can't be bothered to do it themselves.

Neverwinter Nights 2 is a lot of fun. The Base Campaign really doesn't take itself that seriously and enjoys poking fun at itself a lot. The story isn't great but if you are a fan of Slayers you will probably enjoy it, or like what most D&D groups devolve into through the campaign.

The Expansions are definitely worth getting. Mask of the Betrayer is one of the best D&D games out there, and Storm of Zehr brings back the fuly customisable parties and World Map exploration that games like Icewind Dale had.

Yeah, you can get the game and all of the expansions for $20 on GoG, or cheaper during sales, which is why I was going to get it. The new Divinity game itself looks like it could be a pretty fun multiplayer experience once it's done, but as you said, the 'Early Access' sticker plastered on it currently is keeping me away from it.

Re: What games are you currently playing?

It was ported with nicer sprites. It wasn't really a remake, though all you need to do to get something called a remake now is port it and add one single new feature.

Re: What games are you currently playing?

There's never been a remake of 6, only a better localized GBA port with a few new Espers and 1 new Dungeon. It IS a lot better than the original SNES and PSX versions though, and they fixed the vanish + doom/x-zone trick so you can't just cheat your way past most of the harder bosses.

Final Fantasy VI was remade for iOS.

Re: What games are you currently playing?

Full Darklight/iLv70 Equivalent and your Relic Base/Zenith is very easy to farm (takes about a day max now) and is really all you need for T1-4 of Coil. Once you hit iLv80 the Extreme Primals are very much doable, and iLv90 is fine for T5-9 and all of the Extreme Primals.

There really isn't much of a grind to gear new classes anymore. The only grind in the game would be upgrading the Relic past Zenith. I hope you enjoy Fates, Brayflox Speedruns and then even more FATES with the odd Treasure Hunt, because there's only 3 ways to get Alexandrite at the moment \0/.

It's pretty stupid what they did with Relics. They have gone from having to bear a series of fights that are challenging for the gear Level (Hard Mode Primals), to everything being WORSE than FFXI's Relic, because EVERYTHING is Random, and FATES are extremely shallow content that offers no challenge whatsoever.

Not exactly playing, but debating on buying Divinity: Original Sin (as it releases on June 30), or picking up Neverwinter Nights 2 with all of the expansions again.

I can't believe my quest log has me constantly attending to matchmaking failures like this. Strange Journey's side quests have been rather weird so far. I do like that the game goes silent with each of Anthony's requests, though.
