    Holdfast: Nations at war. Just released and still in early access but it's like a new Warband:Napoleonic Wars game.

    Bought Divinity original sins 2, xcom2 war of the chosen recently and havent touched either because i discovered the joys of Warframe the day before :eek:
    I just decided to try it after stumbling upon youtuber skillup`s video review recently while i was eagerly awaiting destiny 2 on PC.
    I cant believe is just didnt bother with this game previously but im glad i did now.
    Absolutely amazing game, incredibly deep,also incredibly confusing at first too.
    Im enjoying it so much i wish it was just a once off buy the game instead of its F2P model as i can see myself putting some money into this, to atleast unlock slot for new warframes and weapons.
    Im totally engrossed in it, really fascinating game.

    Wait till the plat packs are discounted in a sale or you get a plat discount for login if there still there,i only ever used the 50% off discounts.

    Prime packs may sound pricey but if your in for the long haul the plat amount you get from them is good value compared to packs with just plat.l and the frame and weapons are a bonus.

    I spent about €80 on warframe,mostly using the plat for slots,potato's and golden potato's. You do end up needing a LOT of slots for weapons and frames if your a hoarder like me.

    I played near 700hrs of warframe though so i reckon i got my €80 worth:)

    Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee. I thought it would be a fun game, man it is quite difficult. Or maybe I haven't got the hang of it yet.

    Maybe I shouldn't have bought the whole collection.

    I'm doing a fresh season in F1 2016 after signing a contract with a new team. I haven't played it in months.
    At first I was a bit rusty but I won my second race by over 30 seconds so I'm gonna turn the difficulty up for the next race.

    I'm alternating between Skyrim and Cities Skylines still. CS has a new dlc coming out that I'm really excited for. I still need to get 3 of the past dlc's but I'm thinking of waiting until the new one on the off chance the older ones will go on sale.

    I can't decide what to play, but i know i want to go through some of my backlog, so...

    Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee is seriously unforgiving. You manage to get to far through a level and make one small move wrong and your dead. But I am enjoying it though. It's kind of satisfying getting through a level you your were dying on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Tried cuphead. A bit meh.

    Back to football mwnager 2017 so that I'm sick of it by the time the new one comes out and I don't buy 2018 at full price.

    Got tomb raider with humble bundle. Will give it a shot but not great with most action games. If that fails it's back to Mad Max. Which is excellent.

    Put about 10 hours into Factorio over the last week or so. Initially I hadn't a ****ing clue what I was doing so tbh watched a couple of Youtube videos on it and they really help you get started, there is a mind boggling amount of nuance to the game.

    Started playing The Sexy Brutale. Not played anything like it before. A real change from the stuff i'd usually play and i'm enjoying the hell out of it.

    It's very very tough to get through without dying yourself or sending your pals to the slaughter. So satisfying when you get it right.

    Plus I love possessing the sligs :P

    I haven't had much time for gaming recently so I've been nipping in and out of Offspring Fling (which I happened to win on here). It really is a perfect puzzle platformer. It's challenging but not to the point of frustration, and introduces new mechanics at just the right rate. Plus it's super cute! :D It's great when I have a few minutes here and there.

    How are you finding it? Just finished it after the freebie from Humble. Now halfway through Season 2 after snapping them all up in the sale.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,195 ✭✭✭Glebee


    Just finished up my play through of Sword Coast:Legends. Glad I gave it another go because I really enjoyed it. In fairness I had enough of it at the end and will not playthrough the free DLC that came with it. Just started Inside the follow up to Limbo. So far so good..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,309 ✭✭✭✭wotzgoingon


    Snake Pass. It is a fun game with good mechanics. Trying to collect all collectibles can be tricky.

    I've finished the first two episodes.  They intrigued me.  I am raising Clementine well.  The St. Johns...

    I've been meaning to play Season 2 of that. Really enjoyed Season 1, and enjoy TTG games in general.

    Currently playing Fifa 18 (Trial), Torment: Tides of Numeria and Shadow of Mordor.

    Also working my way through the Telltale games i haven't played. Finished Batman and on the Walking Dead season 2 now. Tales for the Borderlands next, then Walking Dead season 3.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,634 ✭✭✭Gehad_JoyRider


    back playing The Division, the quality and improvement in the game are insane. If the game had been released in its current state I think it would have an insane amount of players.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,195 ✭✭✭Glebee


    Mirrors Edge:Catalyst. Decent game so far, reviews were a bit bleah though.

    Still a bullet sponger?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,309 ✭✭✭✭wotzgoingon


    Currently playing Submerged. It's alright. Not really a story as such.

    Not so much, your way more powerful then 1.1/1.2/1.3

    Massive have turned there attention elsewhere and Redstorm have taken over and they're doing a stellar job at making the player feel more powerful against NPC's and ther modifiers are great :D

    Decided to pick up StarCraft: Remastered recently. I've had the original saved to my battle.net account for absolutely years and still have the original discs up at my folks house, but it's aged so poorly graphically it was very hard to play.

    It's a great game though, I'd really forgotten just how hard it is as a game, especially when under constant Zerg attack and trying to choose between defending your base while also building an army.

    I do wish they'd updated the cinematics though, seems kinda lazy they didn't do that.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,442 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Finished Shadow of Mordor today. Actually enjoyed it more towards the end, and made me want to pickup the new one. Will probably wait a few weeks though.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 14,789 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dcully


    Bought xcom2 wotc,divinity original sin2,f1 2017 and project cars 2 over the last few weeks and havent played either thanks to warframe.

    I just tried it on a whim as i was waiting for destiny2 to arrive on pc, so many gamers and reviewers were saying its better than destiny 2.
    Fast forward 4 weeks and i cant get enough of it, havent touched those games above i was looking forward to and doubt ill buy destiny 2 either.

    After someone mentioned it on the Unmissable Indie Games thread I decided to get the finger out and finally start Fez, years after I originally bought it.

    Enjoying it so far, just finding the map confusing and generally have no idea where I am. But I like the mechanic.
