What are you playing right now?

My copy of Yakuza Remastered Collection arrived. Just started Yakuza 3. As much as I enjoyed 6 and Kiwami 2, I almost forgot how much better games on the older engines controlled.

3 has always been kind of a black sheep, to the point I only played through the original version once, but I am really enjoying seeing the Okinawa setting again.
I'm finishing up Kiwami 2 and hoping to bust into Yakuza 3 later this week. I'm really looking forward to playing through 3/4/5 on the newer consoles and I'm hoping the remasters don't fuck up the charm of the older games.
 
Can't get enough of Battlefield 1, I always play it for a couple of hours every few days or so. Too bad the population has declined quite a bit since the release of BF5. Conquest, Operations, Rush, and TDM are pretty much the only modes where you can still find populated servers, but its OK because those are the best modes.

The weird haze that kept the frame rate in check on the older versions is gone, but otherwise there’s no visual changes and it’s great. The combat is still tight, but feels 10 times smoother now, and weird shit like Kazama being referred to as “Fuma” in 3 has been fixed.

DOOM 2, although more specifically a fanmade pwad- Sunlust. Pretty fun and challenging. Lots of monsters though, and majority of the maps are slaughtermaps.

Hell yeah, the game still rocks even after BF5 came out, I gotta say I'm hugely dissapointed in the lack of naval warfare that BF1 had with the Gallipoli DLC. BF5 is alright and is completely underwhelming compared to the scope and ambition DICE had with BF1. Here's hoping those retards just outright cancel their Battle Royale game mode and just focus more on making the game a little bit better.

They've outright ignored that mode outside of applying that horrible 5.2 patch to its weapons. God, 5.2 fucked everything up.

If it weren't for the fact that BF1 has a smaller population than BF5, I'd happily take the former over the latter any day of the week.
 
Been playing Fire Emblem: Three Houses recently. Just finished Blue Lions, will be siding with the church next.
 
I've been playing a lot of Fallout: New Vegas recently and have gotten around to playing the DLC. I just finished Dead Money and while I liked it for the most part, I can see why a lot of people dislike it. It really favors some playstyles, the villa is a maze, and the holograms are a pain. I did like the new characters, the ghost people and the casino itself. Can't wait to start the other DLC.

About 2/3 of the way through Control. Really like the setting and reading about/discovering the weird objects. Gameplay is simple but solid which is good enough for this style of game. There is a lot of potential and i'm interested in what they'll do with dlc, which is a rare occurrence.

In the age of open world gaming I've grown to love "worlds" that are dense better then worlds that are huge. I'd take something like Kamurocho from Yakuza over a giant Ubisoft map any day. The Oldest House kind of fits that bill. You can just run through from objective to objective but if you take your time there is more then meets the eye.
 
Biing! Sex, Intrigue and Scalpels.

I noticed it had been referred to further up the thread and it came up on GOG.com for about the price of a pint of beer so I bought it.

It's the sort of game that you couldn't get away with nowadays. On the one hand, a rather hardcore management game. But on the other hand, it's all perverted doctors, drunken orderlies, and busty nymphomaniac nurses who you can make strip off to assuage patients who've been waiting too long. It's basically Theme Hospital's perverted cousin.

Oh yes. The tutorial FMV, which features a nurse (who is apparently a nurse IRL according to the disclaimer) stripping off while explaining the controls, you could not get away with nowadays. She refers to a neurology ward as "where all the crazy people are made normal again." Also because the patients names, faces, and jobs are all random, you can have a female patient whose occupation is "Slut."

(Does this mean the devs predicted the existence of the instaho and the e-girl?)

Suicide of Rachel Foster : figuring it was by daedelic and looked to be like Edith Finch I was expecting something much better then what I got.

Beat the mage quest for Oblivion. It's a lot better than Skyrim. Only thing I really hate is you can have 100% Chameleon and the guards can still see you. 🤬

Sadly invisibility is always the way to go. It’s inconvenient if you want to do anything besides walk around, but it’s the only way to guarantee you aren’t seen.
