The non-ME3 games recently enjoyed by ME3MPrs

Vanquish is not bad, combat is good but the story and characters is a little cheesy. Journey is really good though, easily one of those games you can pick up for 30 mins-1 hour and just relax.

I bit the bullet and bought Gary's mod. Already bought the half life collection previously and I liked the idea of the ability to play so many games in 1 package. So far though the games I have tried to play have been extremely laggy and I'm getting horrifc frame rates (was getting 11 FPS in TTT game mode). Also pugging isn't quite as fun as I had hoped.

Periodically I'll look at this thread. (Gaming Giveaway Awareness topic here on BSN.)

Looked at it Friday. (IIRC) Saw a couple games that didn't really look like something I'd be interested in. "Crime Cities" and "Dead by Daylight". Meh. I'm a fantasy/sci-fi guy for the most part, neither sound intriguing.

So later that day I wound up watching a Youtube vid of Davaeorn, a very good Baldur's Gate player. He had a link to his Twitch stream, so I figure what the hell and see if he's streaming. Turns out he is, and he's streaming... Dead by Daylight. (At this point I didn't connect the two.)

If you're not familiar with the game (like I was) it's based off of Horror movies. 5 people play, 1 Killer, and 4 coop Survivors. It's a lot like Left4Dead had a baby with Vermintide II. (Maybe same Devs as L4D? Haven't checked.)

The streamer I was watching was trying Killer. And damn, the gameplay for Killer is, killer.

I got hooked. I love hunting in games. Like my feral druid prowling around in WoW PvP, or playing the fast Alien in AvP(Runners?) and hunting someone from the roof/vents with wall-walk.

In fact, it looks so interesting I check Steam to see if it's on sale. Turns out it is, 'round half off. I contemplate buying it...

I continue to watch the stream, as it nears its end someone mentions, "hey, it's free on Epic right now!"

Then it clicks. Hurrdurr, Dalakaar's a dumbass.


PS: (I don't care about/hate Epic enough to spend money on Steam I don't need to spend.)

93 hours? That's a lot.My first playthrough took around 60 hours.Plat requires some more hours,so boldly go . As for the Elden Ring,i expect just another great game from FROM software.The only developer which has never disappointed me.They don't have a single bad game.The only concern that i have is the open world thingy.IMO it doesn't fit here and I don't understand why every new AAA game should have an open world.A friend of mine played the beta (he is a mad fan of souls-born games like me) and he said that you can avoid the enemies,which is meh IMO.There is also stealth approach like in Sekiro.The horse seems interesting.It will have a big role in the game.I just hope that the game won't turn into some mainstream stuff,but like i said,i believe in Hidetaka Miyazaki.Also i recommend you to start Dark Souls 3.Skip the second part.It's just not at DS1 and DS3 level,because the mentioned chap(Miyazaki) wasn't director of this game(he was busy working on another project back then).It's not a bad game,but nowhere near as good as 1 and 3.

Master of Orion: Conquer the Stars.

Got some shit talkin' Antarans...


Lost my Missile Base in this one.

A game I've recently finished was Kena: Bridge of spirits. Short game but definitely enjoyed it nonetheless.

I've heard this game was pretty tough, so I wanted to see for myself if it was actually true, and also because I haven't played a non weeabo anime game in a long while.

Not gonna lie I got my ass whooped in that game, but it wasn't too bad a lot of it was just trial and error. When I can, I eventually would like to put in however many hours just to be good at that game, and complete it on the hardest difficult for the hell of it.

Syphon variant was genius. Adds for more aggressive gameplay with a weapon like Syphon PAW (pinpoint lazer beam AR). Because increasing the shooting at enemies replenishes your health, adding to the best offense is a great defense. A great dynamic to fast paced gameplay that encourages aggressiveness.

I started my Dark Souls 3 playthrough and I'm going to try to do it blind, unlike what I did for DS1. Things I've notices so far: enemies are far more aggressive, punishing, and have a decent health bar, estus is hard to come by, I have no real idea what I'm doing but fast roll ftw , the Claymore is still awesome, and I have no git gud. It's fun in the early game seeing things that sort of parallel DS1 like the Tower Wyvern guarding a Claymore much like the Hellkite Drake did in DS1.

I hope you enjoy it man it's one of my favorite games even though it starts really slow. I'm still finding things I missed in several playthroughs and hopefully you've added the DLCs, but if you're going to pick I'd add Gun Runners Arsenal (just added weapons and gun mods and stuff), Old World Blues, and Lonesome Road.

Edited cause main story was dull and dialogue sucked quite often. Characters and immersion are really good afair
