What are you playing right now?

Ever since the Friday the 13th update on Steam, I've been playing through POSTAL 2's A Week in Paradise gamemode, based on the mod of the same name. The Eternal Damnation weapons are a great addition. Today I found the secret terrorist base after fighting through the sewers, broke out of prison again, befriended two dogs (one of which was killed by a massive explosion of multiple cars ), and raided almost every house I could find. Amazing how a fairly poorly-made game could be so fun.

Postal 2 is the best game ever made and deserves Game of the Year, All Years.

I've played Skyrim for a few more hours and I've never heard the infamous "arrow to the knee".

I used to patrol the Mojave almost wishing for a nuclear winter, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

I installed Oblivion and was finally able to become a capitalist lizard.

It seems less "clunky" than skyrim, maybe because I have a wal-mart special computer.

I heard Picard mumble something about his amulet, the guards don't want me touching his body.

I go to hell, and the little screechy goblin folk fuck me up! In FNV I could take anyone to hell with a well placed .308 or punch to the face.

I'll install Morrowind tomorrow.

If you don't start the main quest or one of the Dark Brotherhood quests where you go back to the Imperial Prison. You can complete the mages questline and get a staff that resurrects corpses, and get the Skull of Corruption which makes a copy. Then you go back and resurrect the Emperor's corpse, make a copy of it, kill the copy and immediately save, and quickload. Then activate his corpse as quick as possible and you can get his clothes

Alternatively you can just use console commands if your boring.

Baldur's Gate 2 with a ton of mods, including Ascension. Currently finishing up things in the Sahuagin city and about to enter the Underdark.

I just want to wack a sword across somebody's head.

Watched slowbeef's LP of Dark Souls and ended up getting back into it. Made a caster who relies entirely on magic, parries, and backstabs to deal damage. I'm about up to the Capra Demon, and I feel like that's going to suck.

Currently, I'm trying to take out the Darkroot Basin hydra to open up Dusk's stuff. I'm wishing I'd taken the Master Key, so I could just take the back road into Blighttown and skip the Capra Demon entirely.

Jaykin Bacon Episode 3

 

[Overcast]

Still playing Fire Emblem Awakening. Decided to restart my game halfway through in order to play on Hard mode.

Definitely more challenging, although the reinforcements attacking as soon as they arrive kinda threw me off a bit at first.

Also finding myself restarting a lot to save the guys I like. Mainly in the late game though, as early game is pretty good at giving you plenty of soldiers to work with.

Late game though (I'm at ch. 21 at the moment) I can't really afford to lose too many people. Dammit Tharja! We're going to get through this game together!

Six hours in no crashes. Success I guess.

It's also things like compatibility issues. Like NPCs appearing in other places or quests breaking due to other things. They usually occur much later on in the game.

I'm playing Rune Factory 4 that I got for my birthday as I wait for Bravely Default to come out.

I started a game of Dragon Age: Origins as a generally "good" dwarf noble.

You.


Yeah, you.



I like you.



In other news, still in Fallout 3 and my xbox is being a little bitch about playing the game. So... I may not be able to keep playing this game or even any xbox game until that's resolved.

 

[c-no]

Played Resident Evil 6. I only have the Ada chapter left but I don't think I'm far in it. Only reached the Tall Oak's cemetery.

 

[Saney]

I'm going to download X-COM Enemy Unknown and the Enemy Within DLC in a week or so. To prep for that, I'm rereading Guavamoment's LPs of X-COM UFO Defence and X-COM Apocalypse.

 

[Overcast]

I have just started playing Persona 4: Golden.

I have heard nothing but praise for this game, and so far, I'm kinda enjoying it. Music is sweet, and the characters I've met so far seem pretty cool. Haven't got a good taste of the battle system yet, but I don't mind waiting.

Looking forward to playing more soon.

Bioshock.

I've been flinging little green guys around in rockets. While I still can, that is. It's more fun than people are allowed to have in Utah, so it's only a matter of time until they shut me down. Until then, whee!

Spoiler

Clicketh thee here for a whopper image of drifting serenely into space.
(Linked instead of inlined sos's you can get the TRUE and HONEST resolution if you click enough times.)

Depicted here is a craft piloted by the unflappable and always amused Jebediah Kerman himself, on the way to Minmas, the outermost moon of Kerbin WHERE I LANDED SUCCESSFULLY, THEN GOT MY ASS BACK HOME! Put that in yer pipe and smoke it, O ye of little faith.

So yeah, I got my little green dude on the little green moon and got him home. This is not easy for a n00b such as myself. (Some sickos can do it in their sleep, but a touch of the 'tism is probably needed.) The game is harder than snot. Just getting into orbit the first time makes you feel like you've accomplished something liike climbing K2. Getting to Minmas is a bit of a feat because it's orbit around Kerbin is inclined, so you have to deal with the ascending & descending nodes to match its orbital plane, plus the usual apoapsis and periapsis burns, sweating about delta-v, and how good you can crash. (You will crash. Often.) It's probably easier landing on Minmas than Mun though, the gravity well isn't anywhere near as steep and you can get back to Kerbin on minimal fuel.

You get to the moons by cutting out every ounce of stuff you don't need, and for GodBear's sake don't take too much fuel. You just have to drag it upstairs. The problemo is how to get to the other planets and their moons, because taking too little fuel would be kind of a mistake but taking too much makes it iffy just getting out of the atmosphere. I've left plenty of little green dudes floating around up there forever with no fuel to get home. My ships didn't have docking ports back then so rescue expeditions would need some spacewalking to get them homeward bound -- and I have other stuff to do in the meantime, so it sucks to be them.

It's an early-access game but it's matured wonderfully, and it's to the point where it's a lot of fun to play. Huge time-suck. Much fun.
