What are you playing right now?

[Ayen]

Just took out that punk Espa Roba in Eternal Duelist Soul. I swear Yami Bakura is the only intelligent A.I. in this whole game.

[fat_moogle]

Just recently started playing Ori and the Blind Forest, Rise of the Tomb Raider and Gears of War. I stopped playing Persona 3 Portable a while back but I'd like to go back to it at some point as it was just getting good! The faster I complete it the quicker I can get on to Persona 4 Golden. Also my Tales of Xillia playthrough is on hold until I set my PS3 back up again.

[Sephiroth]

ATELIER SOPHIE THE ALCHEMIST OF THE WONDER BOOK PS4
FATAL FRAME V MAIDEN OF BLACK WATER WII U
THE LEGEND OF ZELDA TWILIGHT PRINCESS GAMECUBE
FINAL FANTASY VII-1 PS1 -> PS3

[Zanmato]

1. SoulCalibur III (finishing another round of Chronicles of the Sword)
2. Final Fantasy X (getting Caladbolg for Tidus)
3. Worms 4: Mayhem (unlocking Alien and Cyborg clothes for custom characters)
All of these games are played on PlayStation 2, obviously. :V

[Pumpkin]

Just bought a PS4 :omgomg: And got Omega Quintet!!

I am enjoying it a lot. I wouldnt recommend it to everyone but its got cutesy characters and outfit changes, so its right up my alley!


I am extra excite for Christmas break now

[Madame Adequate]

Total War: Attila
Game Dev Tycoon
Crusader Kings 2
Cities: Skylines
Rimworld
Europa Universalis IV
Far Cry 4

[Ayen]

I feel another game of Eternal Duelist Soul coming on.

[NeoCracker]

Xenoblade Chronicles X.

It's okay.

[Depression Moon]

A hacked version of Pokemon Soul Silver called Pokemon Storm Silver. Didn't realize how addicting Pokemon could be.

[escobert]

Magic: The Gathering Online
Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth
Survarium

First two should be obvious as to what they are. The third is a online FPS set in the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.T.A.L.K.E.R._%28series%29) world. It's free to play (pay to win) but fun. There's some different elements to the game play than say CoD or BF like, artifacts you can use to get special powers but, they cause radiation damage while attempting to get them. And pretty much all the guns are Russian/Eastern block so, I get to use my favorite guns as opposed to most other FPS games where the SKS ann Mosin aren't cool enough for them.

[Fynn]

Oh my.

What I'm NOT playing would be an easier question.

Let's see...

- Final Fantasy III
- Dragon Quest III
- Fantasy Life
- Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey
- Codename: S.T.E.A.M.
- The Sims 3
- Final Fantasy XIII-2

[Zeldy]

LOZ Triforce Heroes at the moment.

I find having to re-search for unknown heroes for every level a little tedious, especially after completing a level with people I've worked well with, you then are right back to square one searching for new heroes instead of being able to move to the next level with them.

Completed the game, just going for 100% now with all the different outfits. Enjoyable game though, just not very long!

Getting a PS4 though and it'll be hard not to get lost playing COD: zombies for years on end like I have done before!

[Mr. Carnelian]

Borderlands 2 (with Formy) and Tomb Raider Underworld (by my lonesome).

[Fynn]

Oh dear, that reminds me. If Santa delivers, I'll get a WiiU with Xenoblade X and tons of other games for the 3DS and Vita. My backlog will grow exponentially... :ohdear:

[Loony BoB]

Getting a PS4 though and it'll be hard not to get lost playing COD: zombies for years on end like I have done before!
Well, when you're not playing FFXIV amirite

[Zeldy]

rite ;) I'll get the full game on the 24th as thats when I get paid :D

[Ayen]

Finished The Eye Toy Play and picked up FFXIII in my spare time. My gaming schedule for the first two months of 2016 will depend greatly on what I get for Christmas. With any luck I hope to have Rise of the Tomb Raider, Road Rash 3D, and Auto-Destruct in my gaming library soon.

[Wolf Kanno]

Dragon Warrior 2 (Dragon Quest II for the rest of you) on the NES
Final Fantasy Gaiden: 4 Heroes of Light (DS)

[Pumpkin]

The main ones are Hometown Story, Fallout 4, Dynasty Warriors 8, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorny, and Gaokao.Love.100Days. Many more on the side

[Zeldy]

Yeah, I'm pretty hooked on COD: Black Ops 2 Zombie mode on PS4.

Anybody else playing? add me, 'Zeldy92'.

[Pete for President]

Undertale. I dig.

[Miss Mae]

I made a Steam list of all the games I am part way through and haven't completed yet.

66124

(Those that aren't installed, I have been playing on Jiro's much fancier computer.)

But mostly I've been playing Fallout 4 when I have time to play at all.

[Ayen]

I'm about to start a play session of Type-0.

[Psychotic]

Just played To The Moon the other day. It was great for an RPG Maker game, though not quite the *~*feels*~* experience that was promised.

Playing Rocket League on PC with Dayyyyn and Uncharted collection on PS4. I've only just started the latter and I'd never played an Uncharted game before. If Gears of War and Assassin's Creed had a baby, this would be it.

[Ayen]

Tested out everything I got for Christmas yesterday. I can't believe Road Rash 3D is only single player, that makes no sense to me. And the graphics in Broken Helix has aged so horribly I can barely make out the cameras I'm supposed to avoid.

[Miss Mae]

Tripped and fell into a store on Boxing Day, fell some more towards the counter with a 2DS and Yo-kai Watch in my hands, then accidentally played that for eight hours over the last two days.

Feels good to be on a short break from work, so I can catch up on writing and ​have time to spare for vidya.

[Formalhaut]

I've received three new games, and a new console, so I have plenty to choose from, to be honest.

[Iceglow]

Paul decided to put the band back together. In doing so we've found 2 new games to play. The first is Rocket League which is good fun but I must admit I suck at it. I never was one for playing football games and combined with the speed of the cars etc it's pretty tough going for me. The second game is Windward which was a little known entity that Dan found. I must admit that the game is great fun but it is very time consuming to grind up money for new ships. I've been working my ass off and I've only gotten to the 5th ship from the starter.

[Ayen]

Playing Rise of the Tomb Raider. Think I'm close to the end. Pushing barrel into the water. My discs need to stop giving me this "Error cannot record on disc" crap. I keep losing hours worth of content because of this trout because then it won't let me rip the damn thing onto my computer.

[Pike]

*rezzes thread*

I started playing FFXIV again because I'm a loser and apparently have nothing better to do than play MMOs all day. I rerolled on a new server because I have a good friend who was on that server and wanted to play with me and we did a bunch of dungeons together! It was super fun! :jess:

[Pumpkin]

Too many things

Dragon Age: Origins
Legend of Dragoon
Bloody Roar 3 (almost done)
Project X Zone
Threads of Fate (almost done)
Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel
Breath of Fire III
Earthbound

And I just got Grandia II in the mail but I'm waiting until I clear at least one RPG. NO MORE GAMES UNTIL I CLEAR SOME

[Rez09]

That's quite a list. xD I get tripped up when I have more than two going. :p

I just finished Romancing SaGa again, so I am moving back into Pokemon Insurgence to finish that up, then onto . . . AM2R! :excited:

[Fynn]

Dragon Quest VI and the Sims 4. The rest are on hold.

[KarlMay]

At the moment, I play Tetris... I think it isnt funny at all, good game though...

[Slothy]

SUPERHOT. It's incredible.

[Formalhaut]

At the moment, I play Tetris... I think it isnt funny at all, good game though...

Really? When I want to play high octane, exhilarating seat of my pants action, Tetris springs to mind immediately.

[Loony BoB]

hey guys have I mentioned that I play FFXIV because I have been playing FFXIV

[Fynn]

hey guys have I mentioned that I play FFXIV because I have been playing FFXIV

No :onoes: You're joking

[Aulayna]

Mostly playing:

Tom Clancy's The Division
FINAL FANTASY XIV
Overwatch

[Galuf]

Destiny
FF X
FF II (have been for a year :lol:)

some random games.
recently finished undertale too.

also i might get the division. but destiny aint over for me yet!

[Bubba]

FF II (have been for a year :lol:)

Not quite that long for me but sure feels like it. Currently levelling up Ultima, Flare and Holy for my three main peeps. It is not pleasant.

[Galuf]

i been playing it on my phone whenever i'm traveling. im at the cyclone part

[Wolf Kanno]

Since my PS3 is kapoot at the moment, and I'm not feeling like dealing with the constant recharging of the Wii motes, my recently revived PS2 is entertaining me by letting me finish a new playthrough of the Xenosaga franchise.

[Pumpkin]

A ton of games as usual but out of the ordinary, my boyfriend is having me trying XCOM. Not a huge fan so far but good enough that I'm still trying at least

[Quindiana Jones]

I'm playing Far Cry 3 again. The HUD is utterly god awful compared to FC2, but I thoroughly enjoy this game.

[Egami]

Started Dark Souls III last night. Couldn't play much since it was late and had work the next day. Looking forward to continue with it after I get off work!

[Galuf]

Destiny.
Dead Space
FF 2 6 10 and 12
Pokemon mystery dungeon 2

yep. Cant say "oh theres nothing to do"

[Depression Moon]

EDit: Galuf, how you play those many games at one time? 2 is my limit.

Dragon Quest V. This game feels long as trout. Now I think about it I think DQ VIII was the same way.

well..... Destiny, i can play until ive done th stuff for that week.
i can play pokemon when waiting for other people
and i choose one of the FF's when im waiting for longer

and i just finished dead space :shrug:

[Wolf Kanno]

Started the 4 Heroes of Light back up and just took down the second of the four fiends. It's such an odd ball game but really fun nonetheless.

[Peter1986]

I discovered the space shooter "Summer Carnival '92 - Recca" yesterday and I have been struggling with it for a while.
It is probably the most intense NES game I have ever played, it's pretty much bullet hell with swarms of enemies and bullets flooding the screen all the time, and I always die a couple minutes after the second boss.

It is a really fun game though, it's one of those "hard-as-all-hell-in-an-addictive-way" types of games.
It feels a lot like an extremely hard version of Gun Nac, actually.

[Midgar Mist]

Resident Evil 2. Its getting....gorier and slightly more difficult now I've reached the lab. But at least it doesn't start out too hard (unlike some games I could mention)

[Galuf]

Dark Souls 1. apperently i either go hollow and give up. or git gud and win. those are the words of LN.

its alright.


MM: I tried that on a n64 emu few years back at school, got stuck on first screen. plus PS1 version probably better

[Pheesh]

About to start a new playthrough of DA: Inquisition

[Pike]

About to start a new playthrough of DA: Inquisition

Whatdaya know? ME TOO. I'm just killing time while I wait for it to download.

Dragon Age is all I've been playing over like the last month.

[Pumpkin]

A bunch of stuff but my main focus has been on

Tomb Raider (PS3)
Fire Emblem: Birthright
Hexyz Force
Time and Eternity
eden*
Grandia II

[Peter1986]

A while ago I randomly started playing "Kirby's Adventure" for the NES for the very first time in my life.
I think I played for about 15 minutes before I got a Game Over, and this happened while I was fighting some giant tree or something;
I believe it was Stage 5.
Anyway, I thought the controls felt slightly unintuitive at first, and I spent some time trying to figure out what exactly I was supposed to do in order to fly and use special abilities, but after that, it was pretty fluent.

[Rez09]

^
That's my favorite Kirbeh game. >: D

I'm currently playing through Emerald Dragon on the SNES. So far it isn't terribly interesting, and combat is silly automatic since I only control the main character, but the story is moving around at a good pace and is a welcome break from the crazy grindfests that were Dual Orb II and Magna Braban.

[Pumpkin]

Main focus right now:

Tomb Raider (PS3)
Fire Emblem: Birthright
Hexyz Force
Time and Eternity
If My Heart Had Wings
To The Moon
Okami
Breath of Fire III

[Depression Moon]

How do you play all that at one time?

[Pumpkin]

I just play the games when I'm in the mood for them :D

[Pete for President]

Playing casual Magic the Gathering with friends! Very happy with a 6-2 win/loss ratio yesterday despite being the newbie of the crew! :p

[Zanmato]

What kind of deck have you played?

Thank you ;D

I mostly played a white/blue control deck. It has lots of disables like Claustrophobia/Pacifism to buy time to get some bug guys on the table. Shipbreaker Kraken (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=373637) is my favourite card from this one!

I played two rounds of 1v1 with a slippery red/blue aggro deck; lots of creatures that are hard to block (like Triton Shorestalker (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=380522)) combined with cheap buffs like Infectious Bloodlust (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=398582). This deck only seems to work 1v1 though and definitely has a time limit on it. It can't go late.

And lastly there's a Red/Green deck with mana boosting creatures like Whisperer of the Wilds (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=391957), stacking up big creatures and then trample the opponent to death. It does alright when the game is slow but gets destroyed by aggro kinda easily :erm:

[Pumpkin]

Right now I am focusing on:

Xenoblade (Chronicles)
Bravely Second
Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright
Earthbound
Okami
Fortune Summoners
Undertale
Dungeon Travelers 2
Saints Row The Third

And a bit of Tomodachi Life on the side

[Galuf]

racing my bro on pokemon soul silver nuzlocke



except he got wiped by a single tangela.... just after whitneys miltank...

[Vermachtnis]

Beat the main story of Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth and now I can start on these sidequests that unlock the Royal Knights. Rosemon Burst might be one of the best healers in all of gamedom, she has a Passive that gives everyone Auto-Regen and naturally learns the three best healing spells. On top of learning a skill that raises the parties INT by 10% and she has another skill that lowers the enemy INT by 10%. I also have Lucemon SM whose passive reduces damage received from magic attacks by 10% and converts it to HP. Essentially turning the party into magic tanks. And then I have Mastemon, who has an attack that does 25% damage to the enemy party and it works on bosses. And her passive increases Light and Dark damage by 10% and Healing Effects by 10%.

Just found out that on top of being the best healer, Rosemon BM is also a tank and DPS. She's quickly becoming my favorite Digimon.

[Formalhaut]

Just played and finished Dragon Age II for the second time. I played with a Male Hawke this time and I loved the voice acting. Seriously, M!Hawke and F!Hawke are both equally fantastic.

What's strange after playing Dragon Age II after playing DA: Inquisition is just how surprisingly empty Inquisition is. I loved going through side quests and meeting so many colourful characters. In Inquisition, there's not many meaningful sidequests; quite a few don't even have a single cutscene, and are just simple fetch quests after reading a note or letter. Boring.

[Galuf]

Trying out this Xcom game.
loving it so far

[Pumpkin]

Still too many games but main focus is Xenoblade, Atelier Sophie, Fire Emblem: Birthrights, Virtue's Last Reward aaaaaaand maybe Tales of Xillia 2 here in a bit

[Xander]

I just finished playing Dark Souls III (well I say finished, I haven't actually done the final boss yet because I am lazy), now I'm taking a more relaxing break with Lego Jurassic Park/World which is super fun, and I got Doom for my birthday so I'll be starting that soon :)

Edit - for those who like Xcom or have considered Xcom but want something a little more accessible, I highly recommend Invisible inc. I was playing that recently, and it's a super well presented, fun, hacking, stealthy, xcom-type game. :D

[Selphie]

Just picked up FFXIV! So I'm switching between that and Hearthstone a lot.

[Pheesh]

Switching between Overwatch and Kingdom Hearts Unchained X atm.

[Zanmato]

Games on Android:
1. Machine Knight - great FF-like RPG with 3 characters (each of them has 6 "personal" classes) and 4 different endings.
2. Wormlings: Armageddon - The Polish version of Worms with online/bluetooth/hotseat battles.
3. Zombie Road Trip - your goal is to run away from the zombie horde. There's a lot of awesome cars and weapons!
4. Pac-Man Kart Rally - the title says everything. The full version costs about 1$ and it's totally worth to buy!

[Skyblade]

Just started Dragon Ball Xenoverse. Good game. Controls definitely take some getting used to, but it's quite fun. Not a huge DBZ fan (most of my exposure to it was from DBZ Abridged, which is amazing), but I'm enjoying it thoroughly so far.

[Wolf Kanno]

A lot of Zelda.

[Fynn]

Still Devil Survivor and Undertale, with some KH Unchained χ on the side!

[Slothy]

I got it back when it came out. Haven't played much in the past year or so but it's a really cool game. I had a lot of fun with it. Something i imagine I'll pick up every now and then for a while in the future.

Still playing a ton of overwatch, and just got pillars of eternity yesterday. Haven't played it yet but looking forward to it.

[Galuf]

just in my annual pokemon mood again. if you havent guessed....

i wonder why.....? :) :(

[Vermachtnis]

Started up Valkyria Chronicles. It's really fun. Cherry is one of my favorite generic units. Not sure if I get the point of the Scouts, she gets shot in the head. A lot. And Wendy is my favorite Shocktrooper.

[starlet]

Okami against Mirage's will of course :D

[Pumpkin]

I thought you were supposed to be playing Xenoblade!

[starlet]

I thought you were supposed to be playing Xenoblade!

The more he tells me what to do the more I don't want to do it because it sounds like work!

[Loony BoB]

Very much back into Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward after taking a couple of months out to get through Firewatch, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, some Football Manager 2012 and Uncharted 4.

[Lyndis Highwind]

Pokemon Leaf Green. This is my first Pokemon game and I'm having a lot of fun with it.

[Galuf]

Pokemon Leaf Green. This is my first Pokemon game and I'm having a lot of fun with it.

Oh you never played before? you are so lucky lol

[Vermachtnis]

Been playing Xenoblade X again. The music is so good and it's so pretty.

[Zanmato]

Current game: Pixel Dungeon
This game made me love Roguelike games, although I've died many, many times... XD
This game is available to play on PC (Windows), Linux, Mac, iOS and Android. It's also free to play, so you should give it a try! :D
There's a lot of mods available on Android too - have fun! :D

[Galuf]

just finished pokemon Black 2 again.

its good, but i really think after ghetsis is defeated that it loses my interest really. unlike Black which kept the story to the end of the game. Sadly this problem is common in pokemon games. idk why its worse here.

also still hunting shinies in Alpha Sapphire.

got a Larvesta and spinda.

[Vermachtnis]

I've started up I am Setsuna. When do I get Gundam Exia?

[fat_moogle]

I bought Fahrenheit yesterday (Indigo Prophecy) but I haven't started it yet. Will do some time in the week. I'm looking forward to giving it a go because I really enjoyed Heavy Rain and, to a lesser extent, Beyond: Two Souls. When Detroit comes out I can say I've played every Quantic Dreams game.

Honestly I've not been gaming lately and this will probably be the only game I touch until FINAL FANTASY FRIGGIN XV at the end of next month. NEXT MONTH. OMG.

[Lyndis Highwind]

I'm playing Xenoblade Chronicles right now. I'm only a few hours in, but I'm really liking it so far. The battle system is going to take a little bit to get used to though..

[FFNut]

Playing some Assasins Creed as I bought a trilogy of them the other day. Just finished Black Flag and may take some time off to play a retro RPG as I was meaning to replay Secret of The Stars to see if it was as bad as I remember, but also want to play Secret of Evermore again as I loved the game.

[Zanmato]

Currently playing: Final Fantasy XII.
I've defeated Firemane! :D
Battery Mimics and Flans are a pain in the ass, I must say! :lol:
I'm starting to love this game! Especially its battle system, Gambits and the License Board! :dance:

[Vermachtnis]

I got Fallout 4 back when it was released, but only really started playing it. I'm doing something different, I'm playing a sniper. I barely even touched Sneak in other Bethesda games. That's one of my friends favorite things too, I think in Skyrim his Sneak was his first to 100 and I can see why, shooting people in the dick from really far away is fun. And before the closest I came to a ranged character was when I started Oblivion with the intention of being a mage, that lasted a couple quests before I started cutting everything down. Even in New Vegas I played a brawler. But anyway, I'm a sneaky deaky snipe and shooty character.

Sneak is pretty fun in this game, I got it to where I don't trigger land mines anymore. Which is good because I first reaction to seeing the warning pop up is to look around and try to disarm it real quick. Doesn't usually end well for me. I did the Silver Shroud quest, that was a load of fun. Until the end because I wanted to do the optional step. I ended up taking some Psycho and having to use VATS to do it. Looked cool, the conversation ended and me popping his head off before before he could do anything. Took about an hour of save scumming to do it too.

Cait is my favorite companion so far. At first it just because of the accent. Then during the Reunions main story quest, I opened a box that triggered a shock trap. She just ran into it and yelled, "DAMN IT" and ran out. It was one of the funniest things. Then about halfway through the quest I got her affection high enough to trigger a conversation. And then at the very end of the quest during the conversation this popped up:
[Valentine disliked that]
[Piper disliked that]
[Cait liked that]
Yup, we're going to along just fine.

[NeoCracker]

Finally getting into Trails of Cold Steel after all this hype I've heard around it. Only a couple hours in but it's turning out good thus far.

[Loony BoB]

Have been playing Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. Not far in, but already really enjoying it.

[Formalhaut]

I'm sort of playing three games currently:

Main: Miles Edgeworth Investigations 2 (the fan-patch!)
Second: A first replay of The World Ends With You
LP: Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

I enjoyed the first Investigations game so I decided to give the second a spin after Mr. Carny got back on the Ace Attorney series with the Apollo Justice game. He also recently finished TWEWY, so I wanted to replay that and enjoy the story. And Uncharted is my LP game, which I'm now trundling along at a steady, if slightly slow, pace.

[Larahl]

Diablo III with a couple of friends. The first two Acts were too easy and boring, but after Act III the story got a little more interesting (still horrible writing though) and new difficulties were opened so the game got much more interesting. Can't wait to start Adventure Mode.

And I'm also playing Final Fantasy X HD. Great nostalgia bomb and this time I'm trying to do the 100% completion with all the achievements.

[Karifean]

Touhou 11: Subterranean Animism. I'm on the Extra Stage now, and it made me hate DNA strings.

Fuck these things.

NXmflT2GUcc

[DMKA]

Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories HD

[Rez09]

I picked up Black Sigil on the DS a few days ago -- it's not too bad, though I haven't heard much of anything about it.

[Karifean]

Touhou 11: Subterranean Animism.

Haa, I finally beat it. That was doubtlessly the hardest game I ever played all the way through.

[Bubba]

Apart from my Mass Effect adventures, I'd recently started up a game of FFIV.

Rather sadly though, this was around the same time I downloaded 8 Ball Pool for my iPhone and I literally have not stopped playing this... to the detriment of everything else in my life.

MissH: *from upstairs* "Danny, is the baby OK?"
Bubba: *not taking eyes away from phone* "Yeah, he's just playing with your hair straighteners."
MissH: "They're not switched on, are they?"
Bubba: "Hopefully not."

[Fynn]

DRAGON QUEST VII!!!!!!!!! :omgomg:

[Night Fury]

I just started playing Star Wars: The Old Republic as a Twi'lek Jedi Consular. Much fun is being had, sorry Sims LP*

World of Final Fantasy was everything I ever wanted out of a single player Pokémon game (seriously, GameFreak, you just got schooled at your own genre), and a superb homage to the series. Loved it. Other than that, still chipping away at Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward, which is fun but a bit slow right now because it has been a while since a major patch (so, about two months or so). Really excited to see what happens next though. And I still have so much I haven't touched in the game even after all these years.

[Fynn]

Icewind Dale 2 is kind of on my back-burner at the moment, and I occasionally play some Sims as well. Instead of all that, there's three games going on currently:

Final Fantasy VII, as part of my marathon
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, to give me that job system I so crave
The Witcher, because I just finished the books and I need more Witcher in my system

[Rocket Edge]

Started playing FFX last week. Just after arriving at the Djose temple. It's dangerous. Ended up playing until well after 1, so got less than an ideal sleep. I'll probably end up doing the same again tonight. ^^;

[Pumpkin]

Dungeon Travelers 2, picked it back up after a break because it was so grindy.
SOMA, part of my adventuring in to horror games
Trails of Cold Steel II - Almost done, in the epilogue
Oblivious Garden, a visual novel, about halfway done
Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth, Chapter 6
Rogue Legacy, haven't even beaten the first boss yet ;_;. R.I.P. Sir Taco III

Playing Steins;Gate 0. I quite like the tone of the game so far. Pretty curious to see where the story will go since I have no idea as to what's gonna occur.

[Fynn]

FINAL FANTASY XV

Have I ever told you the definition of 'jealousy'?

Why did you take the picture using a potato?

[FFNut]

Right now I am sucked in to a EA Sports Title NHL 17. Though it's not the best hockey game made, it has all the current rosters and prospects that make it fun. Also their Franchise mode has been improved greatly of last years making it not a grind to play.

[Gu-fu-fu]

I love that this thread is still going strong after six years! Anyway, I just finished FF the first tonight, and I am being spread thin by how many freemium games I have ended up playing, with their play every day type setups. I play Hearthstone, Puzzle & Dragons, Fallen London, and even Neko Atsume, so yeah, always some game I should be catching up on. The next console game I start is going to start will probably be FFII, FFX, or Chrono Trigger. Oh yeah, can't forget that I am working on Undertale too. Well, and I often am playing one of the many versions of Mario Kart.

[Karifean]

Warcraft III. Started a fresh run of the campaign with some friends. We made it through the Human campaign no prob and now we're considering upping the difficulty to Hard even though we're all woefully inexperienced. ...it's probably gonna be a terrible idea but fuck it.

[Sir Jecht]

FFX.

[Lyndis Highwind]

I started a game on FF III for DS last night. I finally got around to it. It's been sitting on my shelf for awhile...

[Quindiana Jones]

MHGen and FIFA 11, the last great FIFA game.

[Wolf Kanno]

Due to wanting to use the Blog feature more, I've been replaying a few old gems as of late.

I'm still trying to finish up Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together and I'm frankly not sure why I'm stalling on that. I've also started a new playthrough of the Arc the Lad Trilogy. Arc 1 is surprisingly better than I remember it being. Nothing special mind you, but not as boring as I remember it being.

[Kibbs Kibbard]

I always seem to play a list of games at a time, a bit here and a bit there... but at the moment, I've been playing Chrono Trigger again, Final Fantasy VI again, Batman: Arkham Knight, Knack, Final Fantasy IX, Skyrim and the occasional Minecraft.

I might have a problem, but I keep filling it with more games so I won't notice if there is a problem... onward!

[Feraetheris]

Because I was kicked off PS4... Trails in the sky SC.... I am a huge fan of FC but there are so many games and so little time so I hadn't chance to touch this game :D

[Mercen-X]

I was playing Final Fantasy XV and Thief for a bit. Now I'm on Destiny 2 mostly with some time spared here and there for Darksiders and Deus Ex and whatever else might pop up on Plys for free. I recently added Bloodborne to my library, so I'll be giving that a spin as soon as I've cleared some space to download it... I've touched on Knack a bit, the repetitive nature of it's gameplay makes it difficult for me to continue.

[Depression Moon]

I haven't played any video games in a while.

[Kibbs Kibbard]

In addition to my post from a while back, I recently bought a Nintendo Switch and Breath of the Wild... short version is, I'm in love with it and haven't regretted my decision for it. I'm still playing some Final Fantasy VI, I've beaten Chrono Trigger and Knack recently. But practically everything else has been on hold ha ha.

[Rez09]

^

I'm playing through FFVI as well, actually. When I have time. . _. My average party level is 16, no one has learned any magic, and I'm down to four dragons left until I get Crusader. Then it is onto Hidon for the insane irritation that is my Mirage Vest, completing the Cultist's Tower, and the final dungeon. >: D

[Feraetheris]

Trails in the sky SC (rpg) and My time at Portia (crafting-farming simulator with a hint of RPG)

[TrollHunter]

Just finished Persona 3 today before work! Absolutely wonderful game. Going to be starting Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne next once my copy gets here.

Also playing a lot of Etrian Odyssey untold on expert difficulty. Its my first EO game and its kicking me around quite a bit. Awesome rpg though!

So yeah, on a bit of an Atlus JRPG kick at the moment.

[Rocket Edge]

Tried Fortnite for the first time yesterday. Didn't come last in Battle Royale.

[DMKA]

Playing Watch Dogs 2 for the second time. I really like that game for some reason.

Will probably try out Far Cry 5 when I'm finished.

[fat_moogle]

I bought God of War III Remastered in a digital sale to replay before the new game comes out (played it on PS3 but no longer have a copy). I think I'm enjoying it even more than the original play through. To be honest I think I'm going to miss the blades of chaos / exile in the new installment, but here's hoping the axe play is just as fun (I haven't watched any previews as I want to go in blind).

[Fynn]

Juggling Pokémon HeartGold and Bayonetta (WiiU). Both very fun in very different ways

[Depression Moon]

pLAYING hEAVY rAIN. tHIS IS MORE LIKE A MOVIE AND Not a video game.

[Vincent, Thunder God]

I've been trying to collect all the strawberries in Celeste (some with the help of a guide) after having beaten the main game, which has been cool and also recently returned to the 3DS remake of Radiant Historia, which I'd taken a break from but am still enjoying.

[Loony BoB]

For the past month or so I've been juggling FFXIV, Far Cry 5 and Breath of the Wild with the odd random stint in Age of Empires II, Rocket League and Mario Kart.

[Scruffington]

Breath of the Wild and Bloodborne.

[Vermachtnis]

After not playing it for like five months, I started Overwatch again. Been playing Tracer a lot more than I was. And Mercy can't double cast Rez anymore. Boy was there egg on my face when I raised a Soldier and ran over to a dead D.Va and just stood there. Also her Rez has a cast time now. But once I got used to all those changes I was back to my hold annoying self. So much so that I had an enemy team to coordinate their efforts to kill me. I had an Orisa grab me, Mei put a wall between me and my team, Sombra hacked me, and McCree did his bullshit stun and fan the hammer combo. Man I hate McCree so much. Least favorite character in the game. With Hanzo in a close second.

[Foo]

After not playing it for like five months, I started Overwatch again.

Hey me too! I quit before they added a bunch of these new characters so it feels like a wildly different game to me. Also, they added deathmatch so that's great!:monster:

Turns out I'm still a-mei-zing

[WarZidane]

Far Cry 5 and Overwatch, but also I picked Borderlands 2 up again this week. I dunno if it's the community patch or just my long break from the game but it feels pretty fresh again.

Announce 3 already, Gearbox :cry:

[Fynn]

Pokémon HeartGold and Breath of the Wild. The latter especially has sucked me in.

[Darkhero]

Lunar: The Silver Star for the Sega CD.

[Mr. Carnelian]

Fire Emblem: Awakening

[Freya]

Some Warcraft and Monster Hunter: World.

Always with the warcraft. But MH is really fun

[Sarisa]

I'm currently playing The Letter. It's a horror visual novel, and I'm actually really enjoying it despite horror not usually being my style. If you ever wanted to give visual novels a try I'd recommend this one, it's got good character development, your choices affect the story in MASSIVE ways (as opposed to just slightly different lines and a different ending), and there's even some mini games of sorts where you try and escape from the horror that's chasing you. It's pretty fun.

[Vermachtnis]

I playing Zodiac Age. I just got pass the Elder Wyrm. For the longest time, I had it confused with Tiamat. I remembered thinking I need Esuna for that fight. So when I got to Tiamat and didn't have Esuna, I panicked a little. But then I beat it and was like, oh that's not to bad. And then basically two screens later, the Elder Wyrm shows up. And I'm like, OH! This is the guy I was thinking of. And I still don't have Esuna! Penelo and Larsa were throwing out Curas because of all the Poison and Sap. Sad thing is, I have Esuna and Penelo could learn it, but I was saving up LP for a Quickening.

[Bubba]

Deeply immersed in Horizon Zero Dawn. Absolutely in love with the world and the story. Will definitely be getting The Frozen Wilds DLC once I've finished the main story.

[escobert]

Fortnite

nope fortnite here as well. :p

[Loony BoB]

Finished Far Cry 5, ending was absolute trash but oh well, that's Far Cry for you, love the games, the occasional great moments and the characters but hate the endings.

About to start Final Fantasy III. For anyone interested, I'll be streaming this one at https://www.twitch.tv/loony_bob /shamelessplug

[Black Magic Shopkeeper]

Been enjoying Monster Hunter World (offline because I'm not a fan of PS Plus) and ... TRYING to survive at least one year in Don't Starve. I keep learning new tricks n such but death is.... death is inevitable OTL

(also casually replaying FFIX but when am I not)


Deeply immersed in Horizon Zero Dawn. Absolutely in love with the world and the story. Will definitely be getting The Frozen Wilds DLC once I've finished the main story.

My sister's been playing that. She got it for me, but... turns out she's more engrossed in it than I am.
I still love HZD but I'm kinda turned off by the fact that Aloy never sleeps or eats. Kinda ruins the immersion imo.

Yeah, I get that. I'm kinda glad they didn't though. I don't want it to be too realistic. It's still a computer game and I don't want to have to be bogged down with being forced to sleep or sit down and eat. She also never uses the toilet but I'm definitely glad they didn't include that :D

[Wolf Kanno]

I just picked Final Fantasy: 4 Heroes of Light again. I keep forgetting how utterly weird this game is.

[Loony BoB]

Lately it's been Rocket League and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, either playing couch co-op Classic Mode or doing the Adventure mode solo.

[Vermachtnis]

I've been making my way through Chain of Memories. I'm just about done with Sora's story.

[Fynn]

Let’s see...

Still doing DQXI when I can
Just beat the champion in Pokémon Black 2, so I’m digging my teeth into the very meaty post game
Started Stardew Valley. It’s neat.
Taking a short break from DQIX as grinding skill points tuckered me out a bit, but I’ll definitely go back.
I remembered I hadn’t beaten FFX-2 HD yet so I restarted that.
Also want to finally play and beat Front Mission.

[karen_the_witch]

Sims 4.
I've just come from Sims 3 and enjoy building using new materials. I'm planning to use cheats, make my character being a top architect and build even more. Yes, Sims is a building game, not a life simulator for me.

[Jiro]

I'm joining the Apex Legends train currently and quite enjoying it. Titanfall is my ideal FPS minus the tragic lack of players so I'm enjoying something cut from the same cloth.

[Fox]

I'm playing the Free to Play PC sensation that everyone is talking about right now! That's right, you know the one, it's the one you're thinking of. That one. It one everyone knows and is playing right now. That's right, you guessed it, it's Warframe.

[Rez09]

Endless Space 2. I initially ignored the title in favor of the original and Legend, but lately a few friends picked it up and we've been playing it a lot. There's a lot more going on than in the first game, and I have to give the devs quite a lot of credit for advancing the title, although I do feel missiles and juggernauts need serious tweaking.

[Vermachtnis]

Hitman was on PS+ so I picked that up. I'm having a lot of fun. I like that the set up is here's your target and they drop you in a giant toybox.

[Lone Wolf Leonhart]

Just recently finished a replay of the Halo: Reach campaign. Pretty easy to do if you clock a few hours over the course of a weekend.

I'm excited for the traveling Halo amusement park/museum thing that's coming this summer so I was giddy to play an old favorite.

[Fox]

NieR: Automata.

I've had this sitting in my Steam library since I bought it on release, but after dying before reaching the first save after 30 minutes I got mad at it and stopped playing, and didn't go back for two years.

Just now discovering what a colossal mistake that was. This game is... remarkable.

Also as of just after my first visit to the machine village I totally ship 2B and Operator 60

[escobert]

Civ 6, good old Counter Strike: Go and Magic: The Gathering Online.

[WarZidane]

Dead Cells, an excellent rogue-lite that looks very Castlevania-esque (though make no mistake, the focus is on combat, not exploration)
Far Cry: New Dawn, aka Far Cry 5.5, entertaining enough for what it is.
Apex Legends, finally a BR I'm actually playing.
CrossCode, a great top-down action RPG that I should really spend more time on.
Mirror's Edge: Catalyst, because i gotta use that EA Origin Access on something after the disappointment that was Anthem.
Resident Evil 2 remake, which I've already done everything in but I still do a run here and there.

's about it at the moment. I like juggling games.

[Scruffington]

Devil May Cry 5.

[Sorceress Claire]

I'm replaying Gran Turismo 3 A Spec at the moment. Soon I'll be getting a Driving Force Pro steering wheel, shifter, pedal set-up again to fully enjoy the game. I'm also finishing up my Final Fantasy V 'perfect game' file as well.

Man, I can't wait for my replacement DFP wheel, playing semi simulators are way more enjoyable with them. After GT3 I'm moving onto GT4 again.. this time I'll 100% it. GT4 is fun with the wheel on simulation steering feedback setting and N3 tires equipped(realistic grip level. not arcade tires)especially while taking my favorite cars(2002 Mazda RX-7 Spirit R Type A, RUF BTR2 'Yellow Bird', 2004 Ford GT40 etc) to the Nürburgring.

Mission 34 in GT4 is going to kill me again. I did it twice before but that was the most challenging video game endeavor I've ever completed.. nightmarish times it is. I'll try to make the most of it though, somehow lol!

[maybee]

I'm replaying Gran Turismo 3 A Spec at the moment.

Omg, I haven't played a GT game in yonks. So nostalgic. :love:

[I Took the Red Pill]

I've been trying to resist the urge to buy new games and have been playing through some stuff I bought awhile ago but never got into or fizzled out on.

I just beat Dead Cells on Switch, though I'm sure there's a ton of postgame stuff that I probably won't get around to. Next I'm planning to dust off the 3DS and finish Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold and Oracle of Seasons on the Virtual Console. Still playing lots of Smash too. I'm on a serious Switch kick atm. Waiting impatiently for Dragonquest XI on Switch (don't have a PS4) and Shin Megami Tensei V (give me some info plox)

[Sorceress Claire]

Wow another person that like GT games! It's always cool to see rpg players and fellow FF fans that enjoy a good sim style racing game. Do you currently have a copy of any GT game?

[Vermachtnis]

I started Dark Souls 2. In 1 and 3 I did a Sorcery build, I'm mixing things up and doing a Dex/Archer build.

I was worried that I'd end up putting points into Int and Attunement out of habit. But the Bandit's stats were so low that it wasn't even worth it. Like they were so low, Straid and Felkin wanted nothing to do with me. I did end with a STR/DEX build instead of a DEX build. I was using Caestuses and punched my way through everything and only brought the bow out during annoyances like Shrine of Amana.

[Pike]

BanG Dream! Girls Band Party!

and World of Warcraft (still)

[Night Fury]

I have been hardcore into The Witcher 3

[Bubba]

Spiderman (PS4) - Lots of fun.
Ico - Over halfway through and massively stuck on a puzzle. I refuse to cheat.
MLB 11: The Show - Still trying to win the World Series on career mode
Pokemon Gold - Never actually completed it. This time...

I'm a little bit all over the show since I finished Xenoblade Chronicles which consumed 162 of my life hours.

[TrollHunter]

Okami, hollow knight and celeste.
The switch has really revitalized my love for gaming. Could hardly find the time with all my commuting via train but now I can take advantage of that. It's been sweet,

[Vermachtnis]

Finished Dark Souls 2, and doubled back to finally finish the first one. Last thing I did story wise was beat Ornstein and Smough. It was funny people talk about how Dark Souls 2 is sluggish, but it's been awhile since I played any and jumping into the first one right away it's very noticeable. She chugs the Estus flask in this game. I've beaten Nito and Bed of Chaos. Couple things: First I've heard horror stories about Bed of Chaos. How's it's at the top of the everyone's list as worst boss in the series. Didn't really prepare me for it. My friend was telling me about a boss, and this was before I played even Bloodborne, he went on about how it was bullshit. And had no idea how to beat it and had to look up a guide. If it wasn't for him telling me that, I would've been in the same boat. Nothing up to that point prepares you for that fight. I can't even remember if jumping was required before hand. It really is a dumb boss. And lore wise, the Witch of Ilalith got shafted. That random pyromancer guarding the door was a better representation than that thing.

And second, why does Blighttown get so much hate when Lost Izalith exists? Everyone knows about Blighttown, even people who have never played know it's supposedly the worst thing in existence. Honestly I didn't find it any worse than anyplace else in the game. You just got to be careful and make your way down. And those knife throwing assholes stay dead. But Lost Izalith on the other hand is a giant headache. And I'm being literal. The first half of the level is covered in this bright glowing orange lava that gave me a headache. And there's these giant things, I can't tell what they are because that glow makes everything hard to make out. You'd think they'd stay dead, but nope they come back. And this glowy lava isn't just decoration, you have to travel over it. And to travel over it you have to use up a ring slot. And you only have two. And the second half of the level is full of fat fire breathing nutsucks that make an annoying sound when they aggro you. And giant toothy vagina monsters that spray you and destroy your gear. And to top it all off, the boss of the area is the Bed of Chaos.

tl;dr Lost Izalith is bad.

But on a brighter side. I grinding on Phalanx and was throwing my sign down just encase. And I was summoned. Cut down my grinding my five levels and I'm a Sunbro now.

[Wolf Kanno]

Lost Izalith is a pretty sucky dungeon, and a large part of why Dark Souls second half undermines the rest of the game for me. As for Blighttown getting a bad rep, I almost feel that's because most people never played Demon's Souls and experienced the Valley of Defilement, which ranks as one of the most frustrating areas in all of the Souls series. Blighttown even follows the basic layout and structure of the Valley of Defilement with 70% less of the bullshit.

[TrollHunter]

Valley of Defilement is infinitely worse than blighttown for sure. You can barely even see in the Valley. Blighttowns layout can actually be really interesting if tackled coming down from the depths. The verticality is a nice touch imo and makes both the upper and lower parts of the area feel distinct. Upper blighttown is genuinely tense at times due to the cramped area and the toxic dart dudes. What's neat is that since the dart dudes don't respawn the area doesn't feel unfair. If you can kill one of those guys you're still making progress even if you die. Upper blighttown is of course better than the boring flat swamp of lower blighttown and neither are particularly great areas but I think the hatred is overblown.

Lost Izalith/demon ruins meanwhile is a giant disappointment that just keeps going and going. I'd be less miffed if there weren't so many goddamn bosses. Ceaseless, firesage, centipede demon and bed of chaos. None of which are fun to me or engaging. Compare that to the usual 2(or 1) bosses for all the other areas in the second half and its easy to see why its a drag. It's a lazy, garbage area and I always dread going there. Even exploring it isn't fun. It's just a bunch of randomly pasted rehased minibosses in demon ruins and then more garbage in izalith proper.

[Vermachtnis]

I fought Ceaseless Discharge after Quelaag and forgot about him. Three mini-bosses and a puzzle boss, didn't even realize it. I beat it and yea, everything post Anor Londo is kind of disappointing. I only sorta like one and half levels. New Londo wasn't bad. There was only one room that was bad and it was right before the boss and could run through it and Tomb of the Giants was eh. I hated Duke's Archive. Skeleton Archers hiding behind mages hiding behind more archers hiding behind warriors. And the crystal cave just seemed pointless.

[Bri]

So, I been playing dsr on the switch which is pretty convenient since I can't always game now due to working.
But, when i do have time, I had been playing Sekiro and Days gone, pretty good games and Farcry 5 has been great as well.

[Karifean]

Fuck it, I'm just gonna finally start Chrono Trigger right now.

[Scotty_ffgamer]

I’ve finally gotten around to Undertale. I already did a pacifist run and am doing the genocide route now. It’s been a good time.

I also decided to do the month trial for Apple Arcade and have been way too addicted to What the Golf.

[Wolf Kanno]

Weirdly enough, since I tend to hate these types of combat systems, I've been playing through Half-Life 1 and Fallout 4. I actually thought I was close to the end in Half-Life, only to learn I'm actually closer to the midpoint. For Fallout 4, I'm in typical Bethesda mode of being constantly sidetracked by other missions and I've now reached Diamond City despite having like twenty hours of game time going. For those wondering, it's like the third story mission in the game and I'm almost to level 20 and have Sanctuary well on its way to being a fortress city.

[ataldeath]

I'm trying to plat final fantasy 9 on the PS4. I'm currently doing the chocobo treasure chest crap

[ShadowNINku]

Shadow Tactics

[Lord Golbez]

Death Stranding. Currently on Chapter 9 and expanding my network of ziplines to make delivery to everywhere quick and painless instead of advancing the plot. Hopefully won't run out of bandwidth before I finish. I have extraneous ziplines in some places but I don't really want to trel back and remove them unless I need to.

[Aulayna]

I've fallen back into FFXIV again.

I've fallen back into FFXIV again.

I should really get back into XIV. playing a ninja was super fun

Final Fantasy IV.

My first time playing it. It's been a fun ride so far!

[tidus79]

I'm currently playing Persona 5 Royal! ^^

[Mercen-X]

Bouncing between Remake and the original.

[Shaibana]

playing CoD advanced warfare (not online, just the campaign)
i dont even know why because that kind of warshooters are not really my thing, but its nice enough for 'casual gaming'.
I bought it because i needed to spend a couple more euro's to get free shipping when i bought FF7R haha

i am also bussy with FFX. i'm at an annoying boss i Almost defeated last time, i should be able to if i pay better attention.
i believe i'm almost at the end, i'm going traight to FFX-2 after that.

Also playing Crisis Core because of FF7R

[Depression Moon]

I need a reason to keep playing Birth by Sleep. I spoke about this enough with a couple other people, but my main thign is why does it take so long to beat regular enemies in this game? Like damn!

Honestly, once you meld enough strong commands, it kind of goes the opposite route where you kill everything before you even know what happened.

[Fynn]

Just play the monopoly minigame a lot. You’ll get game breaking commands in no time

[Depression Moon]

What monoploy mini game? I guess I'll give it another try. I was about to give up on this game. I actually did not mess around with melding commands. I'll do that next time I boot up the game. I was stuck on this battle in Neverland because I could barely deal any damage while the enemies were dealing a lot to me.

[Depression Moon]

Hey Fynn, and Kanno, how do I beat ventus in his third phase? I looked up a video online that says to sit back and just use the shotlock but I think the point of the fight is to get the meter full and use Last Word two or three times , but I notice my bar doesn't increase sometimes when I do this or it goes it away.

[Wolf Kanno]

You should have a new D-Link that is Vanitas once you reduce his health to almost nothing, which will grant you most of his moves. The actual finisher meter only charges up when you clash with Vanitas using Dark Link Shotlock. You have to win by spinning the directional pad in the right direction faster than he can. You'll have to do it a few times to fully charge for a combo finisher which is Last Word which will end the fight when it fully connects.

[Depression Moon]

I hit him with Last Word once, but it still didn't kill him. I was so mad! This game is frustrating me. I spent hours on this and then I accidentally tripped over my controller cord which knocked down my PS4 and caused it to turn off. I thought my PS4 was done for like a whole ten minutes before I figured out to turn it back on and now I'm back to the phase 1 part of the battle. I'm like ready to quit. it took me a long time to get there.

You said a D-Link? All I get is all of my moves turning into D Strike. I can't find a consistent way to get the meter full. If I idle the meter will just deplete. I looked up this guide, but his strategy did not work for me.

[Nice]

Witcher 3.

I played it when it came out in 2015 on the PS4, took a 10-11 month break and finished the game in 2016. I picked it up, the complete edition, during a Steam sale a few years ago.

I decided to finally play the Witcher 2 a few weeks ago and I just kept it going with Witcher 3.

Having watched the Netflix show and experiencing the second game, I've found I have a greater appreciation for the Witcher 3. It's also just a damn fun game. I also decided to play Gwent, the card game mini-game, this time around. Loving it. Definitely not a bad game to spend time with during this period.

I also picked up Civilization VI last week.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zw8JpSGaHy8&t=115s

As the video shows, you basically have to spam the shotlock to get into that battle with his shotlock in order to charge up your finisher Last Word. What the video fails to mention it that Last Word has to fully connect all its hit to count as a finish, so you need to make sure you're locked on to him before activating it. You may simply need to charge up the attack a few times and wail on him with Last Word more than once because landing the attack is not a guarantee victory. The fight is really more about patience and Nomura dragging out the spectacle aspect of it.

[Depression Moon]

My issue is I have to wait for him to try and do it, but when I do the meter goes back down so I could never get it full again. I'll try one more time, but after that I'm quittin.

Edit: nevermind I got it now. I thought I had to wait for the red dots every time to get a clash. I just need to spam it and I can get lucky and get one. The Last Word actually killed him this time. I made sure to get in on him close before I did it. I'm surprised he just floated there and let me do it. I'm glad that bulltrout is over with.

I think taking a break is what helped me most.

Edit: Wait Wait, did I just beat the game? I thought it was going to have a scene where it would let me choose who I want to play as next. it looks like I'm going to have to create a New file to play the other two. I'm not looking forward to going back and dealing trout damage to enemies. I guess I'll skip to 2.8 then.

I felt like I got more confused from this story playing this game.

[Wolf Kanno]

Yeah you have to play through all three scenarios to get the full scenario, and they all need to be separate files as well.

This video might help and it's funny to boot:

[Fynn]

Don’t worry though as you’re basically visiting different parts of each world with each character, so it doesn’t really feel like you’re playing the same game again for the most part.

[Depression Moon]

Okay, you were right Fynn dealing damage is no longer a factor. I thought since I had to do a new file I would be going back to dealing shit damage to enemies, but Terra is taking them out quickly. I guess the game sorta saved my stats from Ventus's playthrough?

Kingdom Hearts story has been a mess since II, but Birth by Sleep feels especially bad to me and the gameplay doesn't make up for it as much unlike KHII. Jumps feel weird and the game's pacing is off. There are too many battles back to back without other things to change things up.

[Diego Gravas]

At the moment I am playing WoW. Switched to Apex Legends and Destiny 2 some time ago for a change but eventually returned to WoW :D get loads of gold here (https://overgear.com/games/wow/gold) and have fun playing the game 4-5 hours daily :lol:

[Mercen-X]

Surprisingly nothing. After finishing FF7R's story mode on Hard difficulty, I feel I've lost the will to... play. I've still got five other games I haven't even cracked open, not to mention I haven't finished Star Wars Fallen Order. I got KH3 for Christmas and I haven't so much as looked at it. Just thinking about my PS4 now makes me tired. Damn, I'm old. I'm 35, but I'm already so old.

[Depression Moon]

Going through Royal again. Disappointed they didn't change carry overs from 5 because I don't want to carry over all of my social stats, but I do want my Personas, stamps, and money to carry over.

[Lord Golbez]

Weird. For me social stats is the only thing I want to carry over in new game +. Why? Because it allows you to not have to spend any time on repetitive stuff like studying, let's you give stat linked answers that you might not have been able to do the first time around, and ace all tests without sacrificing anything. On the other hand, carrying over equips and personas makes the game easy to the point of boredom.

[Depression Moon]

I don't have to use any of those personas or weapons and I there are like only two dialogue choices in the whole game that are dependent on a social stat and that's Guts in the beginning with Igor and Shido. Other folks have stated how New Game + kills the entire slice of life half of the game considering there's no point in doing any of it if there's 0 progression. I only wanted Guts to carry over since that's the hardest one to rank up.

[Del Murder]

I am playing Witcher 3 Blood & Wine, FFVII Remake, Fire Emblem Three Houses, and Hearthstone!

This thread has seen a lot over the years!

[Vermachtnis]

I've been playing Shantae: Half Genie Hero. I did not know about this game. I thought it went from Pirate's Curse to Seven Sirens. I grabbed the Ultimate Edition because it has all the DLC for about the same price. Finished Shantae's story and working on Risky Boots' now.

[CimminyCricket]

Playing Pokemon Omega Ruby, Shield, the FFVII remake and Dragon Quest XI. Just finished The Outer Worlds and loved it.

[Jiro]

I was recently pressured into playing Destiny 2 and am finding it an entertaining time. The prestige content—raids, etc.—definitely grabs me, but I'm going to quickly tire of the less interesting repetition. I think I would be less bothered if I was maintaining my position at endgame level rather than trying to catch up, but it still feels a lot like there's an unnecessary amount of busywork just to remain able to participate or have access to the tools needed to 'have fun', let alone succeed.

[Scotty_ffgamer]

I’ve been slowly working my way through Resident Evil 7, and I’m enjoying it for the most part. It will be my first Resident Evil I beat (although I’ll go back to the first ReMake after I beat this probably). My main problem with it is that it isn’t Silent Hills, and a silent hill game is what I’m really in the mood for right now.

[Levian]

I try to stick to playing three games at a time. I need some variation!

Currently:
Fallout 4
The Last of Us Remastered
Octopath Traveler

And some occasional multiplayer projects:
Borderlands 3
Fallout 76
Shadow of the Tomb Raider
Resident Evil 3
The Forest

[CimminyCricket]

The Forest
I loved this game! We should play some time. Unless not on steam, I've had it on steam for years.

[Christmas]

Skyrim (Been playing for 9 years. Heavily modded with all sort of shit) :bigsmile:
Jedi Fallen Order
TRIAL OF MANA :kaoclove:

[Judge Mandolore Shepard]

Games that I have been focusing on currently are:
Final Fantasy X
Phantasy Star Online 2
Castlevania Harmony of Dissonance
Civilization IV Beyond the Sword
Tabletop Simulator
Marvel Strike Force
Power Rangers Legacy Wars

[Primus Inter Pares]

Currently playing:
FFX (nostalgia yo)
Monster Train
Hearthstone Battlegrounds
FM20

[Aerith's Knight]

These days I just kind of mess around in Rocket league on the PS4 with some friends. I tried MW2, but I'm not good enough anymore. It just rages me.

Also finished a playthrough of Halo MCC (1+2 on heroic). No multiplayer, since I don't have PC gaming friends anymore. They all have kids now and watch Temptation island on TV.

Other than that, I guess some Total War: Warhammer II now and then.

I'm old now.

[Vermachtnis]

I'm very close to platting Warriors Orochi 4. Just have to finish S Rank and Battle Objectives for Chapter 5 and then do Chaos.

[qwertysaur]

I'm playing Civ VI, FE3H and just did a quick run of Zelda: Link between worlds. :p

[Bri]

Replaying Demon's souls ( I can't wait for DeSouls remake!!!! )
Trying to plat Sekiro and Nier automata as well before ps5 comes out xD

[JJ Strife]

Working my way through the Gears of War series. I only ever played the first one back in the day, but thought Gears 4 and 5 looked kinda good, so figured I'd go back and play 2 & 3 so I can get the story done.
I dunno if you need to play Judgement as well?

[krissy]

ff7r and hollow knight

recently finished prey and it was amazing except for the ending

[escobert]

I bought Terraria. I can't stop playing.

[Kikiara]

Currently on chapter thirteen of Valkyria Chronicles on the PS3. I've been meaning to play it since more or less the day it came out, but other stuff kept getting in the way. Glad I finally gave it a chance though, as I'm having more fun with it than I've had with any game in quite a while. Loving how Skies of Arcadia-ish it feels (complete with cameos from alternate reality Vyse and Aika!). I think you can definitely tell that a lot of the same people worked on both games. :)

[Mo-Nercy]

Just picked up Firewatch and Witcher 3 on the cheap.

Decided to get Firewatch out of the way first before Witcher 3 takes over my evenings for a few weeks.

For sure! The battle system becomes kind of broken as the game goes on (scouts, in particular, become absurdly overpowered, and I found that the demolition order basically rendered the entire lancer class obsolete), but it’s so much fun to play that I hardly care. Definitely going to continue with the rest of the series once I’m done with this one!

I have somewhat mixed feelings on Crisis Core too. The combat didn’t really click for me (I imagine it’d seem even worse after playing the VII Remake), and certain parts of the story felt pretty silly, even as someone who loves the story and lore in FFVII. But I grew to really like Zack over the course of the game, and if you get invested in him as a character, then the ending is very well done, and almost makes the whole experience worth it. I don’t think it’s really a must play, but I don’t regret running through it once. :)

The later games balance the classes better but Scouts are still great. I actually think VC 2 & 3 are overall better than VC 1, but they are PSP games and VC 3 only came out in Japan. I played a fan translated version of VC 3 and it was really fun. I haven't tried VC 4 yet but it's on my shelf.

[Vermachtnis]

Started playing .Hack//GU. I haven't played it since it was new. So like 10-ish years? I do not remember most of disc 1. Completely forgot about Gaspard. I'm just waiting for Alkaid to show up.

I'm actually about eight hours into 3 just now. :) I tried moving straight on to 2 after I finished the first one, but while I appreciated the improvements it made gameplay-wise to VC1's formula, it felt like such a big departure tonally from the first game, and it wasn't really what I was looking for in a sequel. I might give it another go somewhere down the line when I feel ready to approach it more on its own terms.

Really enjoying 3 so far, anyway! I'm not a huge fan of how many generic battles it throws at you, and I kind of preferred the structure of the first game, where each compulsory battle is very much its own unique thing. But I can appreciate that the unique, large scale battles of the first game wouldn't have been practical on the PSP, and the game is still loads of fun to play, even when you're just slogging through the same maps against generic troopers. I also loved the cast of characters almost from the off, and it makes tons of really great improvements to the gameplay of the first game (I especially love the class change system, and how much more practical retreating / redeploying your troops is now). I can definitely see how you might prefer it to the first game despite the obvious technological downgrade when moving from PS3 to PSP.

And I had no idea that VC3 had been fan translated. That's really cool! I speak Japanese so I'm just playing it in the original language, but it always felt so weird that Sega hadn't localised the third game, especially as it was generally better received than the second. So it's great to hear that the whole series is available in English now.

[krissy]

ah yeah I just started vc2 and I agree that the tone seems ridiculous right now... does this change?

[Del Murder]

VC2 does get a little more serious but it is not the same warlike tone of VC1 and VC3.

I've recently been playing some old NES games on the Switch Online. There's a lot of great stuff in there. I've been playing Zelda 2, Startropics, Crystalis, Kid Icarus. They have a nifty rewind feature which is basically a cheat but it helps with the unforgiving difficulty of some of the 8 bit games.

ok im quitting vc2 then lol. sorry it's just too anime high school for a war story.

i love the rewind feature on old games re-releases. only way to get through megamans :(

[Cell]

Replaying FFIX, trying to use characters I've never really used (such as Quina) and doing the things I never fully completed (Chocographs/frog catching) to see how different the party feels compared to my old regulars Zidane/Steiner/Freya/Garnet.
