Title: What have you, do you play
Post by: daft73 on May 13, 2014, 11:40:59 am
So we always need something to chew the fat on...What other games are you all playing, albeit currently, all time favs whatever.

For me personally: All time most played is probably Civilization 4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civilization_IV), I have had a steady diet of this one for over 8-9 years. Yup. Nuts.
 
                          :Others in no particular order.. Baldur's Gate series, Many of the Fallout series (tactics) is a fav, Dues Ex (orig), Jagged Alliance Unfinished Business, Thief series, Rogue Legacy, I suppose we'll add in the MMO's... DAoC (Guinevere) many years, WoW (Cenarius)Several years mostly Beta-Burning Crusade 04'-07'ish.
There are countless others.

Ive been gaming forever, I like a lot of different types of game my I have a soft spot for RPG's and Space games.
Recently I find myself alternating between these 4 indie games to get my fix

1) Rimworld
2) Pixel Pirates
3) Spacebase df-9
4) Prison Architech

But last night I downloaded StarSector in an attempt to fill the void (pardon the pun :)  ) until the next big VoidExpanse patch comes out.  It looks really good but I havent played it yet, cant wait to get home and try it out, its another top-down space shooter.

Long time gamer here too.

Lately I've been coming back to Sim games en Space games.
I love games where my goal is just to survive, build, gather etc.

At this moment I am playing a lot of SPAZ, Diablo3, Euro truck sim 2.
I backed Stonehearth a while ago and every so often I check the Alpha build to see how far they got.

I also played Euro Truck Simulator 2 and really enjoyed it. I was so surprised I mean how much fun can lorry driving be but they nailed it.  I think I got up to a point after a couple of weeks were I had 10 drivers and 6 garages, and was super rich, then I lost the incentive to play after that.

Heh, my wife and I play some games together...Euro truck sim being one of them. Nothing like some pints/wine and some driving sims. I also play Rimworld, been following that game since Nov '13. Good times.

Yup I found out the by starting fires outside my base, I could use it as a defense. The raiders will either run through it ???, or run around it, all the while I peck away at them. It's also great as a crematorium  :o. No need burying the dead when thier ashes are Dust in the Wind. ::)

I play a crapton of Dwarf Fortress.  Started flirting with StarSector (not too impressed), but I mostly bounce between DF, Starbound, Minecraft, and have been slamming some Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends.

Man, I remember playing so, so much DF.

These days, though, it seems to be split between Stronghold Kingdoms, Wildstar, giving Star Citizen a whirl (Arena commander was just released recently, god it's a gorgeous game) and VE of course. :D  With an occasional bit of World of Tanks or ArmA3 tossed in.

Updating the current playlist: Modded Civ5, Divinity;Original Sin, Endless Legend, Void Expanse, Tropico 5.

So it appears that the current menu is stacked with Strategy, with a dash of ARPG. 8)

How do you find Divinity? I felt so so lost in that game :(

Mostly enjoying the experience. Made a Rogue/Priest combo for my initial party. For the most part I use the Rogue, using the priest for bigger fights/heal meat shield. I recently picked up the Fighter(can't remember her name at the moment)..she replaced as the meat shield, she hits hard but that's it.

I primarily run through the town looting everything, the Rogue has the Bush Hide like every other character, + Turn invisible 5 turns. I heavily abuse these 2 skills, also worth mention, I swap out the starting dagger skill, for Faster Stealth movement. <<<-----This is a huge difference, I don't find myself using the daggers too much, actually prefer a Ranged weapon early on. Went on to pick up the Water skill option to have access to rain...so worth it.

With this the Rogue in this game shines. I have looted ALL the town coffers, with no issues...plain and simple I just don't get caught. All this before level  4 ;D. My Priest and Fighter just stand in the middle of town, whilst Lilith(rogue) has her way with the town. Just started venturing out, and with all the looting I have accomplished I have a healthy pocket of roughly 6k gold...with plenty of items to sell still. Madness. :o

at the moment voidexpanse, resident evil hd remaster and diablo 3.

bought guild wars 2 with big discount this week, but after an hour of playing i thought it would be better to get 10 cheeseburger at mc d. for the money.
this game is a whole lot of rubbish in my opinion.
