No quality-games until ... summer, this year?
Man... I just came home from a pub and I found myself really bored this Saturday. I am bored super rarely! But it happens, and when it happens I do not install a new game and just consume over my feelings - no - I ask myself, what went wrong?
Are gaming politics somehow badly made up this and the late last year speaking of game releases? I feel myself deep down in a dark void where no quality games are available at the moment.
I dont have BF3, Skyrim was done super-fast due to literally no-story and too easy difficulty (even on hardcore), Deus Ex 3 was really good while it lasted, I dont own a D3 beta which has replay-value, a Dota2 beta I own, but its really not my type of game.
So I just re-checked all MMO releases, all free ones and all good paids: There is no MMO which can attract me atm. The games I installed yesterday till today - no kidding - were GW1, Age of Conan, Dungeons and Dragons Online, Rift and Vindictus. I said myself "Long time no see, hay lets give it a try!" - but sooner or later I deinstalled them again.
So, besides BF3 (because I dont own it, my brain thinks it could be quite interesting) I cant think up >>A<< title who could interest me. I love RPGs and FPSs and well, what can you do when you play Games for over 12years now? Am I sated?
Time to lay down the keyboard and mouse until a possible GW2 beta appears on the horizon?

The Witcher 2 ?
Skyrim but heavily modded?
Oh nice that you mentioned Witcher 2, yes I played it actually after Skyrim. Which was hell of fun, honestly. Funny that it didnt came up my mind while writing the post above.
What do you mean by modded-Skyrim? I actually restricted myself in the main-game so I didnt onehit everything
Divinity 2: The Dragon Knight Saga
try World of Tanks ; If you are so good that will turn you into a pile of scrap metal rather rapoid but the game is fun .....

why are people so dramatic?
take a step back and look at what this guy is writing. he goes on a pub. he comes home. then concludes that there are no good games.
and is there supposed to? was there ever? I dont see high quality music or art or film getting released all the time - good stuff comes by rarely. This should be obvious.
to lay down the keyboard until gw2 comes out? People seem to think that things are universally factual good because some websites and online anons are talking about something. do research and find games you like, then perhaps you will find good stuff.
wayy to many people just sit back and expect good games to be blown up in their faces. a lot of the good games dont get much exposure from outlets like this site.
serious sam 3
ignore the reviews on some sites who just played the 1st level, the good review sites - e.g. RPS and more importantly the players love it (the 1st level is a troll / joke by croteam taking the mick out of po faced console style shooters)
absoloutley insane 16 player coop mode, good ingame graphics, corny jokes and terrible cutscenes
my favourite PC shooter since warhead, way more fun than rage
also: arkham city
There is ton of user created mods for Skyrim that make this game much harder. Don't remember websites now but just google for skyrim mods , there is at least one very big website with variuous mods.
pay us and we ll sell you need !(even if you dont need it we can still sell it to you!
this is exactly what is going on in mmo world why you think people are going f2p and social game!they have more fun in those lol
Does it need to be a newely released game?
Play something you missed in the years passed.
You could try Fallout 3 / Fallout: New Vegas. I believe you can get the Fallout 3 GOTY-edition with all of the DLC quite cheaply. Fallout: New Vegas may cost more but has got more content and possibly more replayability.
They are open-world RPGs like Skyrim and Oblivion although with an immersive, post-apocalyptic setting.
im on a same spot as you and been wondering wich one to try next and witcher 2 i havent played so that might be one eventho i didint so much like first one, divinity 2 might aswell be worth of trying.
skyrim even after heavy modding is still boring. once thro like you said too easy nahnah nono.
i havent even gone that far that i would reisntall rift or age of conan =p
but what you said BF3 well i do have it and im old school fps player aswell but i just dont like the thermal noskill shooting
so i guess you should like i should try divinity2 and witcher 2 moar!
Good advice there. Good game.

Bastion is a great little game. I though meh when I did the demo but it was on sale at steam recently so i gave it another go, not disapointed. Excelent game production values are exemplary, the music is as good as any game music ever. A couple of the tracks have even become firm favourites. Plain fun.
Going to try that now from a recommendation in another thread.
