What have you been playing latley /v/?

What are your opinions on those games you've been playing.

>Factorio
I typically hate these kinds of games but it is fucking phenomenal.
>Dragons Dogma
Pretty good, much better than it was on ps3 though. Still rough around the edges. Fun as fuck in spots, aggravating in others.

>FF9
I've played almost every ff except for this one. So far it's pretty good. Vivi is qt.

Should've emulated probably. The mobile/Steam version doesn't look all that good.
Anyway, it's the best game in FF series, you're in for a treat.

Fun indie game, you have to unlock 25 endings by pressing a button. It's pretty dope.

Best Star Wars game ever made, Revan best jedi/sith.

Nah, I just don't have the patience. Most games like these just feel slow to me, but there is so much shit going on with factorio that I'm always busy.

The items management is a pain in the ass, and I have no idea what to do with certain items because they don't give you enough information. Older games like this are impossible without a guide.

For example, they give you a jewelry box with a important item in it, but there is no information on how to open it. I was suppose to examine the item and then press the enter key to open the box, but the screen did not show that I had the option to open it.

One of the characters has a lighter, but it's empty. The game doesn't tell you that it's empty. You have to add lighter fluid to it, but it doesn't tell you that. I was carrying the lighter fluid and it took up precious inventory space because I had no idea what to do with it.

Playing through the Hearts of Stone for the first time. I got it when it came out, but didn't play, because got burned out on Witcher. Started a new game on Death March this time.

Just launched it to check on my pawn.
>TMNT
A friend got me into buying this game to co-op with him, he's an avid turtle fan. It's okay, although could be cheaper. The problem most people have with it, is that they don't understand that this is meant to be a homage to arcade TMNT games, short levels, fun boss fights, beating the high scores etc.

I'm playing Dragon's Dogma but I'm getting weird screen tearing.

I've started a file on this I don't know how many times.

Something always catches my attention and draws me away from the game. I've got almost 80 hours on it and have never gotten out of Velen.
>>
>God Eater Resurrection
Massive improvement over burst, the new features added help make the game feel more than just a remaster with some extra content. It's also cheap as fuck so I'd recommend giving it a try.

>Furi
Played up until the middle of the second boss and it's really fun. I like the music and the art style. Its simple, and not overly complex which is the perfect combination for a boss rush game.

Played Stardew Valley for an hour and refunded it. It's not a bad game it's just not something I want to spend a lot of time on.

Pretty chill. Enjoying the music and how Jill interacts with the world in tiny ways through her services. Just got to third chapter.

Was free on PS+, got to finishing the 3rd boss before taking a break. Very fun yet simple game so far.

Never played much Ys before aside 7 and Memories of Celceta. Definitely much cooler than the party system. Got me pretty excited to try out Oath in Felghana after beating it with all the characters .

>Shadow of the Colossus

Breddy gud, though the two colossuses that were only the size of a bull or so were kinda boring.

>Battlefleet Gothic

My only complaint is that I wish the battles were bigger. Otherwise, love it, don't regret paying full price for this one.

>Dawn of War Dark Crusade w/ Titanium Wars mod

It adds a lot of stuff that frankly should have been in the game to begin with.

But these fucking stronghold missions are insane.

All about huntan today.

HU 2010:
The reason why I even tried hunting games, stumbled upon a free copy and remembered I played this years ago. Still pretty good, looks like garbage but plays well enough.

theHunter:
Great game kind of ruined with microtransactions. You get a free rifle and shotgun with different ammo types but you can only hunt three types of animals plus two more on weekly rotation unless you pay. Every other piece of gear, from weapons to hunting tools, you have to paid an assload of real money for. Worse, free to play currency (only useful to buy consumables and timed-limited animal licenses) is tied to doing quests and there's a limited number of them. Would be great if it was like a regular sixty buck game.

Witcher 3 I didn't actually play today, just launched to take a screenshot, so fuck it. Instead I played Cabela's Big Game Hunter Pro Hunts:
Probably the best hunting game available atm. Looks good, plays great, no microtransaction bullshit so actually comfy... problem is it has a bug that corrupts your save at some point. Still want it but sadly missed the chance to buy it cheap so had to pirate that shit.

I went with Yes Man on my first run, though I admit part of me kinda regreted killing House. Thing is, in RPGs I usually try not to do what I'd do in the situation, but what I imagine my character would do. And for my first run, I felt he would have picked the Yes Man.

Next time around, I'll go with House.

You using any mods? On my first run I only used that dialouge/UI fix and the bugfixes, wanted to experience the game untouched so I could figure out what I liked and didnt like.

I know there's one mod that adds a new daytime sky to the game, which I might look into.

>Brigador
Great isometric shooter, no arcady twin-stick shit but everything has weight to it and the ballistics are pretty elaborate. Good vehicle/weapon variety (around 40 each) and fantastic lore. Biggest issue I have is that there is no real mission variety.

>Hidden & Dangerous 2
Pretty good tactical shooter, but it does the same mistake as the original Ghost Recon and has utterly shit mission design that doesn't play off the strenghts of the game and forces action sequences (including spawning enemies in your fucking sight). Which is a big shame, because it has so many niche mechanics (inventory management, disguises, enemy can surrender, elaborate command interface...) that so far I could barely use because the mission designers were retarded. Still in the second segment of the game though so maybe it'll get better.

The biggest battles in the campaign are... a dozen ships, give or take. It depends on what kind of ships you take. The game gives a number of points before each battle, which varies depending on the mission type. Some ships cost different amounts, depending on the ship class. An escort goes for between 40 to 50 points, while, say, an Imperial battleship, will cost around 150. If I remember correctly (I've mostly been playing skirmish) the largest battles in the campaign were around 700 or 800 points large.

You could just take one flagship and then spam escorts, though I doubt that fleet would win many battles.

>tactics and strategical positioning

Its basically sail ships in space, if that makes any sense. Broadsides and not letting the enemy in the rear are pretty damn important. Its not like in Homeworld where you can make the ships go up, down or something else. You can also pick different abilities for your ships; bombs, deamons, torpedos. What faction you play as also makes a difference. Orks, for example, are all about ramming the enemy and getting close and personal, since their ships become more effective the closer they get. There's also asteroids, mines and nebulas added into the mix.

First time playing it and it's pretty alright so far. Got fucked by a giant in that place underneath Gran Soren. Picked up my main pawn and ran away. Could use some tips

>Crypt of the Necrodancer and Nuclear Throne
Just games I pick up when I find myself needing to kill time. Was able to complete the game once on both games but I haven't found my stride like BoI.

Honestly these are my go to games when my friends get on. Played a ton of R6:S and now I'm just waiting for updates. Overwatch I just got but played a bunch of closed/open beta.

>>344001074
>Could use some tips
There ain't much to be done about the Ogres. They are just awful health sponges the lot of them. One of the most annoying enemies in the base game I think. Especially at low levels.

That one has a tendency to fall off the ledge and kill itself, so you might get lucky if you or your pawns hand around near the edge.

Fire and head shots are your best bet. But even that takes fucking forever to kill.

Have fun in the Quarry later.

You can just make the troll charge you while standing near the edge, most of the time he'll run right over it and die, you'll get the xp but loose the loot.

Don't judge me, I'm clearing my backlog.

>Dead Island
I'm in Act 2 and it's pretty good so far. The resort setting in Act 1 is what makes this particular game shine. My only major criticism of this game is its lack of manual save, and also that the publishers are shady as fuck who have removed the original edition from the Steam store in order to promote the 'definitive edition' which is basically just a graphical overhaul (seems to be a trend recently, like Deus Ex HR, Metro 2033 Redux, and Skyrim). Could make getting coop achievements tricky.

>Lumino City
As much as I appreciate the artistry that went into making this game, it suffers from the long walk times/pixel hunting frustrations of most point and click games. The story is cute and the music is good enough for me to want to get the soundtrack. Puzzles are too easy, and they force you to watch the albeit short cutscenes after you successfully trigger a puzzle solution.

>J.U.L.I.A
If judging in terms of point and click puzzle/hidden object type games, this is probably one of the best. But the achievements are a pain and the DLC is a literal chore to play.

>The other two Artifex Mundi hidden object games
Got them in a bundle. They're easy timewasters. The plots are meh, not as good as the Mystery Case File series. The thing I hate the most about them is the current trend in their newer games to make achievements that REQUIRE you to play the game all over again. Played one called Vampire Legends recently which had neat, behind the scenes interview footage on the residents of modern day Kisiljevo, Serbia. It was interesting to see pictures, listen to some resident play Serbian folk music and hear them talking about their town's history. Not something I would expect from a random hidden object game, but I love that type of dedication. It's expands your horizons a bit and is s nice aside from the regular games you play.
>>
>>344001853
>Mistake?
Nah, it has some of the shittiest DPS but it's still more than easy to play though the game with it. Only class that really sucks to play is Mage.

>I know that the archer/thief class is the strongest in the game
That's debatable. There really isn't any "strongest class". It's more just strongest classes for certain parts.
