What are you playing right now?

[BruisedBoy95]

Animal Crossing. I hadn't touched it in a week or two, then the update came out, so I decdided to move in villagers I like and fix up my town.

 

[Takayuki Yagami]

Titanfall 2 is quite fun.

 

[ToroidalBoat]

Ecco 2 (Sega Genesis version).

 

[spaps]

Kingdom Hearts. I made the mistake of playing the original PS2 version.

 

[Yhwach]

Xenoverse 2

Spoiler: THIS ISN'T EVEN MY FINAL FORM

 

[Ruin]

Dishonored 2 it's vastly improved and looks beautiful but I still hate the chaos system. Why should I get the bad ending because I kill a bunch of mass murders, rapists, and other psychos? Also I'm an assassin out for revenge, punishing me for killing is retarded.

 

[Kartoffel]

I'm currently playing Artifact Adventure; it's an oldschool style RPG with many many choices and suprisingly open world.
It's on sale on steam now, I just paid around 2€ for it.

I don't know how it works in 2 but it made more sense in the first game. In order to get the lesser bad ending you had to kill like 20% and for the worst ending 50% of the people you come across. Most of those people are the guards that keep the plague and street gangs at bay. A lot of them are shitty people but they are better than the alternative of weepers and rats roaming uncontested. Killing your targets and the odd guard in your way doesn't impact much of anything. You almost have to go out of your way to ensure a high chaos ending meaning you were basically a mass murderer or the least subtle assassin possible. But its also a fun way to play the game so I always have to do 2 playthroughs every time I play Dishonored.

Transport Fever - like OpenTTD, but scaled-down and with pretty 3D graphics. I like it despite its 6/10 ratings at Steam - it fulfils my autistic construction game itch and is a very addictive timesink. Not a fan of its management aspect, though, but I play these games not for the management part, but for "build something pretty-looking and marvel at it for some time" part.

 

[Halberd Sonichu]

Still trying to finish Fire emblem fates, i just suck at video games sometimes. also currently going thought a rail shooter on the Wii by the name of counter force, the thing looks like a early budget PS2 game. its also surprisingly playable despite to looks secnod year college student's game dev project. Its not horrible so I got my moneys worth(i paid a buck for it BTW).

 

[WEEDle]

Right now I'm playing two games on my PS2: Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne and Grandia II.

 

[Hummingbird]

Princess Maker 2 Refine has been sucking up my time. Thanks Petronella for telling me about it.

 

[Rap Scallion]

Dishonored. Tried it way back when it first came out, hated it because I was bad at it/it felt like a BioShock clone. Tried it again a few weeks ago, took some time to actually learn how to not suck, ended up having a blast.

 

[Hypodermic Johnny]

I was playing Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky just as a little fun time waster, but I dunno...it's not really as fun as the Rescue Team games. I like the vaguely tribal aesthetic of the town and stuff better than RT but everything else doesn't really work for me.

(Also Wigglytuff is a fucking giant manchild. Seriously what the fuck.)

 

[Ruin]

Just finished Dishonored 2

Shit I liked

- Vastly improved graphics and gameplay
- New powers and weapons are fucking awesome and actually useful
- Voice acting that isn't complete ass
- It's basically open world
- The animations are much much better
- Revamped chaos system

Shit I didn't like

- Plotholes, lots of them.
- Loading times are pretty long and load screens are very frequent.
- It's pretty short, <10 hours if you don't explore or do any sidequests.
- The final boss is a massive pushover. I stabbed her in the neck and she died in like two seconds.

 

[Shoegaze]

My boyfriend wants to start going to Melee tournaments again so I've been his sparring partner/punching bag. Solid game.

 

[Batman VS Tony Danza]

Tyranny. The selling point is that you're an already established bad ass working for the bad guy's army which has already taken over the rest of the continent. When you create your character you can choose how you spent your time in service. Due to the fact your character is basically a walking judge and executioner means when your choices will carry over to the actual game it can help or hinder you depending on how you want to play it. You'll have the option to revisit places you attacked or helped and they'll react according. A high skill in Lore, Subterfuge, and sometimes Athletics will solve damn near everything. Considering how much talking you'll do in this game that pretty much means you'll need it. If you ever wanted to be the bad guy in a Baldur's Gate game then you should probably grab this since the game gives you lots of options on how to be a dick. In my playthrough the game kind of abruptly ended and gave me the traditional "This is what happened after" end scene for each area and faction.

You can probably burn through the game in 25-30 hours the first time playing but you'll realize that some of your choices cut you off from other areas of the game and their plot lines so you'll probably play at least one more time. The game doesn't offer too many side quests and when it does the detours aren't far and the job is pretty quick. Don't expect a game the length of Baldur's Gate 2 or anything like that but the game is at forty-something bucks. I think it's worth the price but you can always wait for a steam sale if you're worried about it being too short.

 

[Varg Did Nothing Wrong]

Finishing up 60's Championship in Dirt Rally and looking to move up to Group A (might end up buying the Lancia Stratos and doing the 70's Championship instead tho). Been playing around with Group B cars in custom event mode.

 

[c-no]

Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines with the latest unofficial patch. Using the Brujah I always played as, I more or less am a deadly killing machine with my own hands. Won't stop me from using a fire axe or a gun though.

 

[Hom Tanks]

Pokemon Platinum, Conquest, and probably Blue DX, because I'm not buyng my copy of Sun until I have money.

And also looking at pokered on the side
