Dark Souls III currently has 75% off; it is just the DLCs that are not on sale.

Ahhhh, some unworthy knave thought to invade my world; he/she too felt the sweet kiss of my blade.

Once you come to terms with the fact that you will die a lot, and have to constantly grind, I find the need to continue playing becomes stronger and stronger.

Dark Souls III does not touch Witcher 3, though.

Definitely get the first one on PC. Looks way better, and there are massive framerate issues on console.

Actually restarted the game on PC after getting to blight town on console.

Also, pc version comes with the dlc, which is honestly some of the best DLC ever, for any game. Has one of my favorite boss fights of all time.

Yeah, a lot of people quit dark souls right away because of the difficulty, but if you stick with it just long enough to get a real understanding of the combat and the strategy around it, you'll get hooked.

There is no other series, not even the witcher, where every fight is as tense as it is in dark souls. Though that is something that could be a turn off for some people.

People who play video games while drinking from their pink tea cup of pussy juice, that is.

Playing Metal Gear Solid 3 HD on Vita, just reached The End bossfight. I'm going to try to hold him up for his camo + stamina kill him for his rifle, jacking all his shit in one go is a bitch to do :-\

Back into Ghost Recon Wildlands. Something about it is just addicting to me despite its typical repetetive ubisoft nature.

Still at Destiny 2.

Finished Abzu. Bought Submerged on the PSN Store for a couple bucks. Going to fire that up today or tomorrow.

All in all, passing time until Monster Hunter comes out.

Finished Sonic Mania. Took forever because I only played it every now and then when I work at home. Last 2 stages and last boss were brutal compared to the rest of the game.

Going through all the edits I dlwnloaded in fire pro and tweaking them to fit my own guidelines and parameters, in preparation for the Fire Promoter release.

I recently bought an Xbox One X and am loving it. I got it used for $250.

I have been playing The Witcher 3 and I enjoy it and I don't. While I love Skyrim, and this game is similar in ways, I feel so unfocused within the massive world. I'm level 11 and bored, don't know anything about alchemy or building armor/weapons. I'm hoping to come back to this game at some point in the future. I got it for $20 on Black Friday, digital.

I just downloaded "This War of Mine: The Little Ones" and I am blown away, totally invested, and even though it's a very serious setting, I have a lot of fun playing it.

Metal Gear Solid V. Wow this is awesome, just downloaded it the other day and I play mission by mission, really good... certain elements remind me of Witcher 3 but elevated. I can tell this is gonna be good, and probably really hard.

Metro 2033 & Lasy Light Redux ... this is really hard but awesome. I got it for like $8.

Games that I've downloaded for free or really cheap but haven't gotten into much...

Path of Exile - Seems really cool but stars very slow, would love a good introduction to this game because it has so many layers. Also the text is really small on my screen and that makes all the leveling up and the like really difficult to comprehend.

The Evil Within - Game is really fucking scary, I don't really even ever want to play it because its so scary, kind of hard too, but mostly just don't want to play this at night. Scary.

Sunset Overdive - Really fun, just kind of lost interest even though I know it's quite a massive game. Seemed to lose focus.

Saints Row Gat Out of Hell - I got this for free on Game Pass, but I don't know if its the best way to start this series.

Deus Ex Mankind Divided - Haven't started yet, came for free with the X-Box.

Doom - Gift, haven't played yet.

It took me 3 tries over the span of 2 years to get into the Witcher 3, come back to W3 when you are ready. It'll be there

Currently playing Injustice 2.

It's odd to me that in MGSV you get credits between missions. Am I supposed to replay these until I get a really high score that I'm "satisfied" with?

What's it like?

Gonna get to Witcher 3 eventually, it's been on my list for a while. Still going with P3 for now.

Spoiler tag for Destor's sake.



Probably just going to get Persona 4 on PS2 because I don't want to get a vita just for one game. Dunno though, will have to cross that bridge when I come to it in a few months.

You're supposed to replay them for the GMP to purchase upgrades, fulton more soldiers or I guess go for S-Ranks. The credits every 30 minutes gimmick is because Kojima wanted to replicate binge watching a TV show and it's completely unnecessary and annoying.

I should beat AC: O tonight or tomrrow... should go into P3 next....LoZ:BotW DLC is tempting me a bit to do it first...I dunno.

MGS5 was hot garbage

P3 takes a while to get going (social links and story are very slow to start) so if you're hearing the call of the wild I'd definitely do that first, or at least make a start on it and alternate between the two.

Whaaa whatcu talking about? I'm only several missions in and there is no resemblance of any garbage.

If you like vast stretches of nothing, repetitive game-play and cardboard characters then be my guest.

Well so far it really has my attention. I don't think I've played in this series since MGS2.

I don't enjoy the traveling of vast landscapes however, one of my pet peeves about Witcher 3. However, in that case at least the horse travel actually goes by quite quickly. I can't decide if I want to horse or steal a vehicle most of the time so far. Getting better at the stealth aspect of the game, which is really fun. Not sure yet how I feel about the whole leveling up your army deal, hopefully it makes the game have more layers down the road.

So far I'm very impressed with the story mode, which gets you very involved. Carries on from the first game. Controls wise it's easy to pick up and get into straight away.
Graphics are sharp , characters look how they should look and the voice work is exceptional.

having notplayed mgs 3 or 4 i can understand liking 5

There are certain things I like about 5, but it's got some big flaws. The maps being pretty boring for one. Story is interesting at first, but doesn't really go anywhere til the end when they cram a ton of bullshit in, because Konami hated Kojima at the time, and rushed the game.

Tbf 1,3 and 4 are among the best games of all time so the bar was very high.

Super Mario Odyssey. Beat the first 3 worlds and just grabbing all the leftover moons and whatever new opened up in those areas.

Witcher 3 might be the best game of all time.

And enough people have said that to get me to buy it, I'm just not really ready for it yet. Though as I'm playing some other games I am missing the quality acting from Witcher 3.


I'm also playing Metro 2033 Redux ... well I played it all night and got kinda far. Far for me at least I really don't know how big the game is. Holy shit it's really fun, I really love the whole engine for the game it's so damn smooth and fun. I wish more games did the cut scenes with the same engine as the game play, that pleases me.

Started Persona 3. Voice actors are good. Vic Mignogna (-Broly/Edward Elric) plays Junpei so im on board

Ok, the Predator mission in Ghost Recon Wildlands is put together way better than I thought it would be. Lots of respect for the source material. They get the tone right and they have the FUCKING PREDATOR THEME when you engage him. I didn't think they'd go that far.

This really makes me want a Predator video game.

Not if everybody in your party has top-notch gear (def DP Unkempt Harold, Grog Nozzle and Norfleet, plus a great shield like the 94% Sham or The Bee, for a grenade mod I'd recommend a Storm Front, a legendary ______ (whatever class you're playing) or Slayer of Terramorphous class mod, and maybe a Sheriff's badge relic or one that boosts max health).

Ideally in a party you'll want a Siren specced into Rez. The skill allows Maya to press the action button while a teammate is in fight for your life and instantly revive them. An assassin with B0re and Critical Ascensi0n can deal massive damage. A gunzerker can wreck enemies with the right gear and his action skill.

Also, prioritize farming for Legendary and Seraph rarity weapons and gear over Pearlescent for farming as most of the latter don't live up to their designated rarity. If you can get a pearl Butcher or Bekah, great...the others like the Tunguska and the Unforgiven suck.

Finally, upon reaching UVHM, a great non-mission way to make XP and get amazing gear is farming Mister Tinder Snowflake in the Mercenary Day DLC and raiding the gift box every time thereafter.

Working on getting 100% in Lego Marvel Superheroes 2, currently at just under 70%

Picked up FIFA 18 in the countdown sale so will start on that next. Haven't played a FIFA game for about 5 years so will be interested to see how it plays.

Does that mean they have to start over the story? Or is it just a minor inconvenience?

I assume they have to start from the last bonfire; the two people that have invaded my world I dispatched, so I don't know yet what that does to my game.

Yeah, last bonfire.

It's the same as dying to anything else. but with a little extra salt.

This isn't a spoiler or anything but it's probably a good thing that you started with a positive view of Junpei haha.

I've just entered my final month (for real this time, I think) so I'm rushing around trying to max out some more social links before it's all over. Haven't maxed any of my party's links though, they all unlock mid-late and I don't have enough time left. Got to lv6 with Yukari but now she's mad at me for not hanging out with her even though she has been unavailable for three weeks due to exams / holidays and we live together and I talk to her every day. Ah well, Mitsuru is better anyway.

Completed Final Fantasy 15: Episode Ignis last night. Epic.

Final fantasy 15 for 20 dollars is tempting..... really disliked 13 though.

They arent similar in the slightest...save ya know...chocobos and phoenix downs

I bought it. Screw it just 20 dollars.

Seeing a car in final fantasy make a me want to hurl. I know there was technically cars in 8 but it was very limited.

Cars were a pretty huge deal in 8...

Buuuuuuut the regalia is awesome. Adds to the ambiance

I only remember using a car once. But that was like 15 years ago so I dunno.

Still installing. Arg

15 is fun. Relatively simple platinum trophy if you ask me.

Had no idea that was a thing.

I'm about to enter Tarturus for the final battle in P3. Penis in a wheelchair leading the charge, as is tradition.

Only missed 6 max social links in the end, not a bad run. I missed out on...



Social Links in general are obviously very primitive compared to P5, and probably even P4 I would guess, but there's a few cool ones. Sun, Empress, Hermit and Tower were my favourites. Hierophant's ultimate persona has been my go-to late game. Guess I should go and wrap this up...

I like how integral the social links are to combat but miss the perks aspect. Unless that comes later...

The perks were a new feature for P5. I missed them too, they gave much more of an incentive to hang out with certain people.

Here you just unlock the Arcana's ultimate fusion at Rank 10, and more importantly, stop them constantly pestering you to hang out on Sunday. There's no need to rush to 10 though, you won't be high enough level to actually fuse any ultimate until early 50s, and some of them even go into the 80s from what I've seen. Generally though, ones you meet earlier have lower level reqs.

I will admit that the features from 5 are missed. Unless the story is A1 its def the superior game

Finished Submerged. Eh, alright game if you wanna pad your trophy count.

Now downloading Everybody's Gone to the Rapture. Will start that tomorrow during Snowmageggdon 2018.

I haven't beat the final boss yet, gonna have to grind for some resist items because he has some very cheap auto-game over inducing tricks once he gets low on health. Really long fight too, had him down to a slither then he beserk fucked me :(

So omitting the ending, I'd say P5 is superior in every way. That's not to say P3 is not good, I really enjoyed it, most main characters have a nice arc. Akihiko SANADA's ultimate persona is my actually favourite across both games, so cool. Story takes aaaaaaages to get going though, which is a real shame.

Still playing Witcher 3


Ciri and Geralt trashed Avallachhhhhh's hidden man cave after deciding that he has another agenda for Ciri. Geralt could have stopped Ciri from trashing the furniture, but he glanced at Yennefer and pulled the trigger. Yennefer also drew a stache on the elf's portrait.


The guy that runs the bath house is pissed at me, never a good time when I go in there to steal his herbs and dip my feet in, he always goes in on me and negates the reason for relaxing.

He's a fat fuck. Massage Envy had better spas.

"Geralt, you can't bring your swords and armor in"

"Geralt, the Witcher shower is THAT way"

"Geralt, those smoothies are extra"

1/5 Golem shits, never going to help him out again

Got Seph's rep about my above post. Yeah, soloing any of the BL2 raid bosses is a bitch, although I have not been above doing the exploit on "ultra invincible" Pyro Pete involving grenade jumping to the ledge and waiting till he jumps up there and hiding behind the post where he can't hit you with corrosive and fire damage and using an inflammable (fire-resistant) or alkaline Bee shield. Takes a while but those Seraph crystals (@ lv.
72-OP8)make it all worthwhile.

Finished Persona 3

Obvious huge


There's an epilogue that is apparently balls hard so maybe that will clear some things up, I'll see how long I last there.

I will be honest...Im struggling to stick with P3...I want to love it :(

I get that, nothing really happens until the fourth full moon. Most of the Social Links don't even get going properly until Rank 4-5, also doesn't help.

Once the antagonists actually show up it gets interesting and it stopped feeling like a grind. What month are you in?

Also a neat, easy way to kill Master Gee solo @ 72-OP8 is to make sure you have a Sham shield, 10/10 grenades and singularity grenade mod equipped. Clear the area near his arena of enemies, then open his gate but do NOT enter the arena. Instead stand under the gate, throwing grenades to pull him towards the gate. Once he's near the gate, get in front of him, throw a grenade behind him, and as combat starts, the gate should crush him, instantly killing him.

Twister shotgun + Bee shield + Longbow singularity grenades = WIN solo v. UVHM Hyperius.

I've started playing the PS4 version of Skyrim.

God I forgot how good that game was.

Unfortunately I don't have as much time on my hands as I did in 2011.

One of the best ever. I've played the Elder Scrolls games since I was like 13. I love them.

I've been sticking with MGSV and really enjoying it. I like that its difficult but if I want I can call in a bombarment or chopper to mow down some jabronies.

Which console ? If it's Xbox would be worth getting EA Access to play FIFA 17 for the start of the Alex Hunter career mode.

I'm doing a quick run through Diablo 3 again to experience the new areas they added last summer that I missed as well as the anniversary event that I also missed last January. Only missing one reward from said event now so I'm almost set.

Still working on 100% Lego Marvel Superheroes 2, not on almost 80%. Started FIFA 18 as a bit of a breather so looking to get more into that.

Ended up getting Dying Light and Assassins Creed: Origins in the New Year sale, so they are likely to sit in my backlog for a while until I get some spare time.

Got Deus Ex: Mankind Divided as it's free this month on PS+.

Managed to pick up a PlayStation TV for pretty cheap, so Persona 4 Golden is on the horizon.

After Horizon Zero Dawn. And FF9. Maybe Witcher 3 and bunch of stuff on the Switch. Eventually though.

Im finding myself wanting to jump on to P4 as Im not playing P3 much...I wish I hadplayed it before P5. Maybe I just need more time between 5 and 3 as it is too fresh in my mind...

Yeah in direct comparison, P3 is just mementos with a plot that only really starts 1/3 of the way in. Navigation is clunky, the thing I missed the most was actually the map telling you where available social links were hanging out.

From what I've read, P4 seems like it isn't as huge of a jump backwards in terms of features, especially if you play Golden. Heard the slow start and grindy dungeons are still in there though.

I didn't want to go in to 3 too fresh, but I found it pretty interesting seeing all the archetype characters pop up. Ryuji = Junpei. Mitsuru is Makoto, but Haru and somehow also Yusuke. Two other characters show up later who were somehow teleported into a major subplot in FFXIII. Mara is there. Mara can actually be transmogrified into Akihiko's ultimate weapon, and I was disappointed that it didn't just turn his boxing gloves into giant dicks.

Dildo attacks would have been soooooo ahead of its time :lol:

I do think im going to put down P3 and try to distance msyefl a bit more and give it another go later.

Taking a bit break from Witcher 3 to jumpstart "My Universe" in WWE2K18. As messed up as the game is, the mode has improved, one thing I'd love is the ability to upload text into promos to make it more special.

VRChat, last night I logged into the game and opened up a portal to Uganda. Got to a tiny island filled with Ugandan Knuckles and drank the blood of the devil to become one of them, currently searching for de wae.

This was pre gta:sa :o

Slowly but surely I am slogging (and dying regularly) on Dark Souls III; I will complete this game!

I just beat the Crystal Sage, with the help of a phantom.

just beat Xenoblade finally

Wrong. Googled it and P3 released in 2006, GTA: SA was released in 2004.

OH SNAP NO HE DIDNT

Undertale


SO MUCH WHIMSICAL CHARM

Also, probably the most unique combat system I'm seen in an rpg.

Love Game

I'm playing resident evil 4

:lol:

...what are ya playin'...

I have about 90 games on my Xbox One from Games with Gold that I need to play , then I have Battlefront 2 , Arkham Knight , Final Fantasy XV, Dying Light (Following Edition) , Fallout 4 and more to play on disc.
Also got games off EA Access and Witcher 3 , Payday 2 and Shadow of Mordor that I bought digital copy with Red Dead Redemption 1 to play on 360 disc.
I really need to stop buying games and play the ones I have.

Call of Duty

Mankind Divided felt like a huge letdown. Can anyone advise if any of the DLCs are any good?

IsAlso, I officially challenge Destor to a ***DONG!!!*** on a Pole match with TakerLover as Special Guest Referee at the Forum Rumble event.

Good game, I play Battlefield 3 mostly but now - warfare 1917 game, pretty cool.

Naruto: Ultimate Ninja

Final Fantasy 7, Sims 2, WWE 2K18

Alternating between these 3

SWTOR upgraded to the newer missions from last year or so.

Going to start Mafia 3 soon. Got it for 30

Started Assassins Creed: Origins, holy crap it looks incredible in 4K. Controls are taking a bit of getting used to but enjoying it so far.

Still got FIFA 18 and Lego Marvel Superheroes 2 on the go as well and added Broken Sword: The Serpants Curse my backlog.

Still playing Call of Duty World War 2 nightly. I have finally downloaded Fortnite and that has been pretty fun. NHL 16 I am currently in my fourth season as the Red Wings and my top line is Datsyuk, Ovechkin and Rick Nash. 1st in the division. Jimmy Howard in goal though :puke:
