Finished up my second playthrough of Dragon Age Inquisition last week, started Shadow of Mordor on Saturday but I think I'm gonna be done with it this evening. Played both because I heard they were good, they're not bad, leave a bit to be desired imo.
Not sure what's next, I'm thinking about finally trying Two Worlds 2 and I may pick up Scholar of the First Sin, but I dunno if I want to rebuy a game I've already played.
Dont matter , i can feel hate , love , think , all emotions in sec frame
Economy its dynamic to keep me busy
Endless skill with insane cap and curve (none yet in 15 yr game reach one skill to cap)
Most funny? you dont know whats skills do , whats tools do , how system work everyone have self theory and balieves
Risk vs Reward mechanic (pvpzone give better minerals but its lootable inside)
you can play for fun , or bussines or mixed to can play without spend money (i did i think played this game around 7yr without spend any peny but its other time now you need initial sum to trade)
Only game you need brain to win and survive , Adapt or Bankrupty , Learn , Study , Act , Dont Be lazy ,
Guild Wars 2
Why?
Like massive pvp and dont have much option around market actual ( over 3k hours in wvw ONLY) have zero clue about pve/living story / spvp or any other thing win all open fields fight its why i play
GW2 because my wife put her foot down so I can no longer pay for WoW or SWTOR. It’s ok though, I like GW2. Oh and Dragon Age Inquisition when it decides not to act up and stutter every 10 secs.
Playing "The Mighty Quest For Epic Loot" at the moment. I have been quite addicted to this game the past week. I don't know what it is really, maybe since it feels 'different' to me by letting me build up my castle to kill off would be looters (other players) of my gold. In turn I can also attempt to complete a run through any player built (or NPC made) castle and take theirs too. Fun stuff for me at least!
It's that time again, I guess. I look forward Kopo's monthly posts about why mmos are bad or why he's better than them. The transparent aloofness and pretense is so refreshing!
lol.
I'm surprised he hasn't stated how much of his hard earned cash Tetris has cost him.
I played Minesweeper on hardcore and finally beat it in under 30 seconds (true story btw, talk about wasted time). That's when I realized.. there's no endgame!!!1one . I can't continue to play a game like that where they didn't bother with endgame. And the PvP needs a serious overhaul, those mines are way OP! and no auction house! What were the devs thinking?!?
Also, on Win7 they have pretty graphics, but I wish they'd spent more dev time on the mechanics. I don't need a pretty game, just one with good systems.
Perpetuum - Just started playing it, this might sound weird, but I like it because it is the only MMO I am aware of where I can be unique. As in not looking the same as everyone else through animations, voice etc. Since perpetuum does not show your character walking/talking it fits me perfectly.
Trove - Sometimes, just to screw around and glide on my glider.
SolForge - When I am in a waiting room or such.
NHL15 - Only series of video games I have never gotten bored with since 2007.
Game of Thrones - Just trying to beat it for the story.
Game of Thrones Telltale - Waiting for new episodes.
After lost all interest for WOD after barely 1 month (usually it took me to play at least 6 months and before WOD I had as usually all 22 alts, which I'm afraid will never happen again) I'm happy SWTOR is still fun as hell for me. Also Revan for me is not total success but is ok. I just hope they really return to what original release was. Playing so far since december Swtor and I think will continue to play untill may/june ... then will see. For sure will return for some time at least to Wow ... but unfortunateyl for me is not anymore game that was up to november 2014.
I'm afraid I haven't played a MMORPG in over a year now. Whether it's because the new MMORPGs are fundamentally different from the old and just don't grab me anymore, or whether it's because my interests have somehow changed, I'm not quite sure. Maybe a bit of both I guess.
Anyway..., I'm still into RPG's. And there's loads of great older single player games out there that I never managed to get around to playing when they were released. So that's what I've been doing lately. Currently it's Fallout: New Vegas. Modded so as my companions are a couple of absolutely gorgeous and depraved teenage sisters. Now that's what I call immersion! But I probably do need to get out more...
Dawn of Discovery. Ship trading. Fight Corsairs. Was playing BF4 til some russion hacked my account because I kept killing him over and over and over and over and over again.
Playing DDO (still) a couple hours a night. Still have fun playing. Have a great group of people that I play with. Currently we're on the TR train heading towards completionist.
Battlefield 4 multiplayer. Late comer to the game. Only got it because it was free with my video card. Still, having a blast (no pun intended).
UFC on the PS4. I like my fighting games and this is one that is satisfying. Having tiered online matches makes for always compelling matches. No getting matched with someone who has 1,000 matches under their belt when you've only got four, unless you specifically do so.
Last of Us Remastered. If you have a PS3 or PS4, kind of a "must have" game. Great story, controls, and look. A game that I must admit I've not played as much as I should. But, as this list will attest, my time is spread pretty thin.
Destiny, mainly for the multiplayer with my brother. Since he's not into PC gaming, it's a game that we can both play that isn't super fast paced (FPS on a console for me is like a monkey fucking a football) but still fun and interesting if you have someone else there.
GTA V for shits and giggles. It's a good blow off steam and not take a damn thing seriously game. Granted, I've logged in more time with this than Last of Us, but I'm still only like 5% into the story...
Why - I enjoy playing with the people in the guild I am in. I enjoy playing with others, kinda odd for a mmo I know now days. I like the bet battles for the most part and I enjoy the questing. I do not enjoy making new toons and leveling anymore, that I am burned out on. I just focus on what I have any play them.
Ultima Online
Why - I never got to play UO when it first came out, the first time I even looked at it was 3rd dawn and even then Age Of Shadows was released shortly after. I never experienced what other did in the game. Though I am not pvp'er for the most part so that might be good. I know that UO is skill based and I like that I can make pretty much whatever I want. I love the housing in the game to, for me only Everquest 2 comes close. Here also I am in a good guild with active players, that helps cause UO is the hardest mmo I've played.
p1999 Everquest - Basic Everquest plus 1 (soon tobe 2) expansions, and is free, why wouldn't you!?
FFXIV Online - Chocobo breeding, racing, golden saucer? Ok yea maybe I am just playing for the chocobo racing/raising and card game, but perhaps I will get into leveling again some day.
League of Legends - Got to get my MOBA fix!
Tropico 5 - Because I just can't get enough of it
Grand theft auto 5 (online) - HEISTS! TOMORROW! (as of this posting)
Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires - This one is actually a lot better than past "Empires" installments.
Card Wars - (Adventure time card wars on my phone for the win!)
Dragonball Z Xenoverse (on PC) -- Lots of fun, DBZ, I like mostly everything about it!
And more! lol
I am entitled to my opinions, misspellings, and grammatical errors.
StarCraft II. I can play a match or two in less than an hour and take a break from work/projects. Plus it was a gift and I feel guilty if I don't play it. Plus I like it. Plus nostalgia.
Don't know how long it is going to tide me over. But it is working for now
I just finished replaying the Mass Effect series from the first one. It's been three years since I could bring myself to pick it up again. Even knowing how it would all end, dreading it every step of the journey, I enjoyed every moment of this most finely crafted RPG.
Why? I had to play it again. No character in any game I've ever played has meant as much to me as my FemShep. In many ways, I became Shepard --- strong, heroic, independent, fiercely loyal, courageous...all things that I aspire to be in my own life.
Still, I can't help but wish that she could have gone out into the sunset with Liara to raise all those little blue children they spoke of so often.
I think of Witcher and how Geralt's story is ending but we have had Ciri come along for much of the ride and who will play a prominent role in the next game. In effect, she is the sequel in the making.
How I wish that Shepard had had a crewmate or a junior officer that we became as invested in. It would have made her death so much less painful...or given her the opportunity for the happy ending she so richly deserved for all of her personal sacrifices.
Kyleran: "Now there's the real trick, learning to accept and enjoy a game for what
it offers rather than pass on what might be a great playing experience
because it lacks a few features you prefer."
John Henry Newman: "A man would do nothing if he waited until he could do it so well that no one could find fault."
FreddyNoNose: "A good game needs no defense; a bad game has no defense." "Easily digested content is just as easily forgotten."
LacedOpium: "So the question that begs to be asked is, if you are not interested in
the game mechanics that define the MMORPG genre, then why are you
playing an MMORPG?"
ESO for my primary game. Taking my time working through the VR levels with some friends and a couple family members. As MMOs go it's the best there is right now for how I like to play and what I feel is important. Feels like an adventure every time I log in.
For those nights where I just want to kill bitches..APB Reloaded. My apologies for my language but "kill'in Bitches" is a technical term in APB.
I'm starting to shy away from MMOs after playing games where the action is pretty much constant. There's too much traveling(super boring) and nothing to make it pay off in MMOs.

Xenonauts: Really captures that old school X-com feel.

Did a quick return to ESO last month but had to little time to really enjoy it the way I wanted only due to time.
And really understand OP....
A few years back had that same fibe with Peggle's

This isn't a signature, you just think it is.

FF XIII-2. I'm bored with MMO's. I'd rather not pay monthly to play alone and have no one want to even talk, let alone do things together.
FFXI best MMO still.
DAOC best MMO for RvR.
Other then that they all suck.

Right now I have swtor and wow loaded on my system and play once in a while. Why? Why not!
I am thinking about getting trove or getting back into eve online.
In the real world, I will be playing Death in the Dark Continent this weekend.

Quit ESo when they announced buy to play.
Returned to DAOC (I've been playing on/off for 13years. Just un-subbed(game renovation just too slow to keep my interest.)
Not playing nor any plans to play anything.
Camelot Unchained has my interest in 2016

Diablo 3 - Love loot showers.
Battlefield 4, Titanfall - See below.
I'm starting to shy away from MMOs after playing games where the action is pretty much constant. There's too much traveling(super boring) and nothing to make it pay off in MMOs.
