What Videogame(s) Are You Playing?

I also have F3, if you’re confident in your choice of suffering by playing it, I can do coop with you :stuck_out_tongue:
Never tried to see if coop works though, only played 30 minutes before I uninstalled it :laughing:

Well that says everything :laughing:

I´m keeping an open mind about coop purely based on Gman´s review, but will give the SP a go first, see how it feels gameplay wise. If it´s passable, I´ll probably take you up on that offer. Otherwise it will be some of the most wasted 5 Euros in my life :joy:

FEAR 3 is still better than most FPS today. With the exception of DOOM, Bioshock series, Wolfenstein series, uhhh. Portal came out before FEAR 3 IIRC.

It’s not that good compared to the OG but it’s still a fun game. YMMV.

After playing Prey recently , I liked it a little more than the FEAR series. What an experience Prey was.

Ha, I remember that on DOS. I didn’t care for it too much because I was such a loyal DOOM fan. I was 8 in 1997 when Blood came out lol.

I decided to give Braid a try. It’s an indie side scroller from 2008. It’s actually really fun. It was redone in 2020 to make it prettier too.

Braid is good, but at the same time, I’m not sure it has aged super well, at least in terms of its story. Feels like it was made at that point in the late 2000’s, early PS3 era where it seemed like a lot of games decided to start being very introspective and critical of “gaming” as whole, but I think Braid feels very shallow in that respective. Good puzzle game though, definetly memorable, I would say it is a must play title.

Yea I’m not super focused on the story. The mechanics are good, and the puzzles are challenging. Before I played I already knew that the main character was really a stalker / the bad guy . Its been fun so far.

I’ve been playing Titanfall 2’s single player campaign for the past few days, because of being burnt out on hitman and I gotta say, this is one of the few FPS games whose story kept me interested.

I just finished it today. While it was short, it was awesome. It had so many moments to remember and that time travel segment was something I have never seen in other games.

I’ve never played any multiplayer games in my life, so I probably won’t be playing the multiplayer part of it but I hope I can find more games with single player campaigns as good as this game.

9/10 game [as far as the campaign goes].

Replaying Fallout 2, I keep forgetting how much I love this game but then it does something it thinks is funny and i lose my enjoyment again.

It’s been a never ending mood between those 2 moods. I do really love it but boy do I also not want to sometimes.

Been playing the RE3 Remake. I loved the RE2 Remake, and really, this is more of the same. I’m guessing I’m at roughly at the half way point? I’m at the point where Jill has just survived the train derailment and finished the Carlos portion at RPD. I’m enjoying, it is a good game, but it is more of the same or RE2R and considering they charged full price for it at the time, I can really understand why people were disappointed. Does feel like a bit of a big DLC. Still fun though. Kindof funny because I’ve watched SomeCallMeJohnny’s reviews of the first 3 original Resident Evils and from the sounds of it, the original RE3 was a little bit of a cash grab as well.

I also played a multiplayer session of Civilization VI, with my assistant manager from work. He’s a massive Civ VI fan, knows all the minutia. Thought it’d be fun to try. We wound up doing a six hour session. I’m glad I did it but it did also kind of cement that I’m perhaps not that into RTS games or Civilization itself. I feel like I respect Civ more than I actually enjoy it to be honest. That and there is so much minitia to learn that it seems like it would take so many sessions to really learn everything to be remotely good or efficient.

Ah well. I got Stellaris a wee while ago and I should give that a shot. I do like a good sci-fi game, although I imagine that game has god knows how much to learn as well, but maybe that is more my thing RTS wise.

I’ve been playing Wreckfest casually on my PS5. That’s a fun time if you want a car game where you’re very much encouraged to bash into the other drivers. It has a demolition arena mode which is fun. There’s one even where you drive a bus versus 23 three wheeled vans, and you have to destroy at least 8 of them, it’s pretty hilarious.

Well, I finished the RE3 Remake. Total playtime was 6 hours, so not terribly long, did it in 2 playthroughs basically. Yeah, I think the game gets weaker towards the end. I think Nemesis becomes less threatening when he stops being bipedal and just becomes a big monster. Think the final section underneath the hospital before the final boss is pretty uninteresting, feels like an inferior version of the Umbrella lab from RE2R. Hate the Hunters, ran into a weird issue in the hospital as Carlos where 2 Hunters were behind a door and I kept trying to open it, they closed it, and that faffing around meant they kept killing me when they got past it. I only beat them by being lucky by killing both with a single grenade.

Yeah, RE2R is better than RE3R, but RE3R is still a good time, I’m glad I got it on discount. With mainline RE games doing their own FPS gameplay at the moment, I kindof hope Capcom maybe keeps this style going, either by remaking Code Veronica (which sounds like a game that could use a very heavy revamp) or just flat out making a new RE title altogether but keeping this gameplay. I really like this.

I really need to play more RE games. I bought a bunch a whole ago in a Steam sale, should really give the first RE Remake a shot. Got RE0 and those 2 Revelations games, not to mention RE7. I keep putting off RE7 especially because that whole Texas Chainsaw vibe, and the fact you get chased by that guy in the game, I really think this is the one RE game that really scares and grosses me out. It’s funny cause you guys a while back talked about RE8, I think some of you were a bit disappointed by it being less scary, a bit more actiony, but to be kindof honest, that looks far more up my alley than RE7. I think I’ll definetly get RE8 sometime in the future. And yes, I haven’t played the classic RE4, should get it at some point. Doesn’t help I played RE5 years ago on the PS3 and really didn’t like it, felt so clunky, although half of that was the awful AI partner.

one tip for getting into re5, get a coop partner, it will greatly improve your experience with that
game. the ai is so shit it will just ruin your own fun.

Yeah, I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to find a co-op partner for RE5 or RE6. Not sure I ever really want to try those games to begin with, unless I wind up really becoming an RE fan down the line. Just seems weird to me for a horror series like RE to add something like co-op, and really, it does feel borderline mandatory for those 2 games from what I hear unless you want a miserable time. I do need to give RE4 a shot though, it sounds like that game still holds up.
