Hey CO, what'cha playin?
Can't play CO all the time so here's a thread where we can talk about things we're playing when we're not playing CO, unless you're one of those people who only plays CO in which case... hi there o3o
Dying Light recently went on sale so I decided to give it a go since I like zombie stuff. Well I pretty much ended up playing it for like 18 hours the first two and a half days after getting it. It plays a lot like Farcry, almost exactly like it in fact, but with a heavy focus on melee and an urban setting. The zombies are fantastic, hordes of Romero shamblers, and the setting is a great slummy urban sprawl where you can end up climbing over a wall and dropping right into a horde of biters.
The other game I recently started playing is Road Redemption. It's a game where you ride a motorcycle and get into melee combat with other bikers, in addition to shooting at them with guns and sticking timed bombs to them. It's a rogue-like where you do missions until you die, and then spend your XP on permanent upgrades and start over. Simple gameplay, tuned very well, and it just feels really good to smash people off their bikes o3o
This is a game I just recommend for people looking for something super-heroey. While Saints Row 4 isn't technically a super hero game, the fact that you get super speed, super jump, and energy projection powers in it, and the fact that the way you use them is incredibly, stupidly fun, mixed with a story that is just absolute comic book dumbness, makes it a game that's worth trying for any fan of super heroing.
The other game I recommend for anyone looking for a great super hero game is X-Men Origins: Wolverine. It's a character action game featuring the iconic bub-slayer himself and it's probably the best super hero game I've ever played. Logan is a ridiculous death machine in this game, tearing baddies apart exactly like hey should, leaping around like a wild animal, and pulling moves that are just over the top enough to not be too over the top.

My computer gaming time has generally been in CO, but sometimes I check in on my STO characters as well.

Darksiders 2 Deathinitive Edition.
And playing by myself since Aug 2009

Final Fantasy Brave Exvius
It's a Final Fantasy mobile game that I enjoy goofing off with when I want to kill time. Despite being such, it's actually pretty fair and decent. I'm 100% F2P and have some pretty badass stuff.
Final Fantasy Record keeper
Another FF mobile game. It's also pretty fair and fun as a time killer, but I play it less often than FFBE.
World of Warcraft
Yeah whatever, I like this game and have been on it pretty much since release.
Star Trek Online
As a big sci-fi and Star Trek fan, I pretty much have no choice but to play this. Although, I kinda don't play it as often as I used to.
Random low-budget indie games from Steam
Speaks for itself. I like indie games because the developers are often less afraid of trying new things, and because they don't demand hundreds of hours plus a bunch of lame DLC.
I am really tempted to try Monster Hunter World now that it is available on the PC but I have not bitten the bullet yet.
also that high int high speech setup jon mentioned is one of my favorite build styles in fallout games... talking your way out of problems can sometimes be just as satisfying as shooting your problems... my typical fallout character starts with int and personality...I add on that stealth and small arms, that way if I can't talk my way out I can still sneak around and shoot them.
Blizzard's MOBA which is a nice casual game. Love playing as Diablo and Greymane the most.
Tokyo Aftershool Summoners
A mobile game full of eye-candy characters for the LGBT. However once you get past the lewdness of the chars, the chars are actually likable and relatable. I also play it for inspiration for doing my art.
Major Mayhem II
A shooter mobile game. Something I play to kill time when I'm outside.

Ew!
( you pre-defended it so I figured I would say something :B )
o3o ...think I might check that out... for research.

The Main story is pretty good but It can be really draining across the chapters since it's basically a visual novel
On the related news, this game is perfect for me and I wanted to play it 2 years now. Say hello to my new Husbando, Gyumao
I pulled a 5-Star Unit and I'm going to show it off to everyone
- Dungeons & Dragons Online - the "open world" is limited, yet it's closer to PNP than Neverwinter and Warcraft.
- Morrowind - graphics are dated, but much more complex and larger than Oblivion or Skyrim
- Ragnarok Online (IRO) - simplistic and grindier than most other MMOs, but it's charming (and probably my oldest MMO running 17 years)
- SimCity 3000 - spend 10 minutes looking at how the city is developing; wonder why it's 4 hours later (and I can play it in between work without too much multi-tasking)
- Dota 2 - when I want to blow off Steam ('natch) and blame noobs or lag for failure
- Hearthstone - faster than chess, stupider than Magic (hint: it's a tempo game where winning is 90% luck on getting the right cards, 5% your opponent's ineptitude, and 5% your opponent getting disconnected from his/her wifi).
- X-Com: UFO Defense - the first one has better atmosphere and challenging at higher difficulties without insulting your intelligence as the more recent ones do
Have others that are installed to pick up and play whenever the urge rises and de-stress from the business of every day.
NWN(Not to be confused with the MMO Neverwinter) Play on a heavily modded server that I co-admin.
Minecraft
DMC4 is basically a super hero game. Nero is basically the Disciple. I kinda wish the Disciple's knock to was as fast as Nero's Devil Bringer. Without that delay it would be a sick move for a melee toon to have ( for those who haven't played it, pushing the button pretty much instantly brings an enemy into melee range ).
As an aside, I was remarkably better at this game now than when I played it back when I first bought it. I think it's because since then I have drastically decreased the amount of sugar in my diet. Sugar makes you bad at video games o3o

Aside from that, every so often I'll take jabs at both Starcraft games and play with their editors. It's one of the few games I still practice level design with. Honestly, I need to find more games that I both enjoy and can create new locales for. Not everything I make sees the light of day, but working on stuff like that is rather relaxing.
And I will always be @DZPlayer122.

Been replaying for the 4th or 5th time lately. I think I might finally go for 100% completion this time.
FFXIV
I don’t play as much as I used to, but I still log in every month or so to decorate my house and lament that I can’t do any of this with my hideouts in CO. During big patches I’ll play through the story.
Secret World Legends
I have a love/hate relationship with this game. I love the world and the story but hate the game mechanics and the community. So I only play when I’m feeling particularly masochistic.
I might have to try out some of the games listed in this thread. So many games I’ve never heard of!
Oh, and make sure you've cleared all but the essentials out of your inventory before you start, because you'll find lots of stuff. I don't go so far as Oxhorn, who in his videos starts off with just base clothing, stimpaks and ammo (which literally weigh nothing), and a shovel, but I do pick out one armor set, one or two weapons, and maybe a handful of aid items with weight (can't get enough of that Sunset Sarsaparilla!). There'll be more weapons out there, ranging from the really useful (the Marksman's Carbine and .45 SMG, from Honest Hearts) to the seemingly silly (the H&H Tools Nail Gun, from Lonesome Road, which is essentially a very short-range silenced SMG that fires nails - great if you can sneak up on a target and hit 'em with a Sneak Critical, or if you're cornered and need to pour on the firepower as fast and as close-range as you can manage, but pretty useless for most combat).

Somehow, I'm not at all surprised that you of all people here would be playing that.
What can I say I like good games ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

oh yeah and jon if you have not done the fallout new vegas dlc yet you are in for a real treat... old world blues stands out here but honest hearts if almost as good only because a particular npc… the other dlcs are good also.. but for me old world blues and honest hearts are the standouts.
Well that's cause it's Maplestory 2. It's 3D now, with mounts that are a bear carrying your toon. I'm thinking of buying that mount cause that's funny to me.

Update:
- Path of Exile: I’ve hit the wall on Piety, the Abomination. Apparently, she’s an absolutely brutal meta-check and players have been complaining about her difficulty spike, and Act IV in general, since 2015. Lovely.
- Overwatch: What she said -> https://kotaku.com/overwatchs-boops-have-gotten-out-of-control-1829690969
- CO: Locks up at a sneeze. Large crowds? Lockup. Force bubbles? Lockup. Try to take a screenshot? Lockup. Accidentally bump the H key, which automatically takes a screenshot? Lockup.
- Forza Horizon 4: I loved it. Then it started refusing to launch and/or crashing at the main menu. I wasted $60 on it. I have the urge to drive to Redmond, lock Satya Nadella and Phil Spencer in a conference room with me, and spend an hour explaining, in painstaking detail, how f***ed up the Windows Store and UWP are. I’d probably forget to collect my $60, but at this point, I really don’t care.
- Borderlands 2: I hope I don’t burn out on this, because it’s the only game left on my list that doesn’t have either a broken engine or a broken meta.
Other than that, everything’s just peachy, thanks for asking.

I know you've probably heard this already, but consider looking at your computer on this. I know my PC experience on FO4 has been vastly improved since I got the new tower last month...

this game does NOT like modern hardware

One of the downside of the game is it's stinginess towards gold for upgrading equipment.

Forza: I’m in the same hell this Ars Technica author was, but I don’t have a byline that gets immediate priority tech support from Microsoft executives. https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2018/10/my-confusing-10-day-journey-to-getting-a-uwp-game-to-work-on-windows-10/
Also, while I don’t have metered downloads, I also don’t have the time or inclination to redownload the entire game, 64GB at a time, at 20-25% of my rated 250mbps download speed, over and over again until whatever’s f***ed up magically unf***s itself. Especially when all of the usual suspects for UWP games (non-Xbox Game Bar overlays, graphics card overclocking utils, having the wrong brand of anti-virus) have been eliminated. Also when non-game UWP apps are misbehaving on my system too. Weather Channel’s live tile has degraded from displaying nothing, to not working at all, to the tile’s right-click menu missing a bunch of entries.
Eventually, Microsoft has to own up to the truth that their Windows gaming efforts are built on infrastructures too immature and unscalable for production, and they were better off cutting a deal with Valve to link Xbox Live and Steam, where games Just Work™ (or you can definitively blame the developers if they don’t) and max out your download speeds.
CO: Years of neglect and technical debt have accrued to the point that systems can be too new for the engine? Say it ain’t so!

Overwatch's story is interesting to me, but I'm not really an FPS gamer. I mostly play STO and CO.

It liked it just fine when I upgraded mine. Probably more a case of the specific hardware, rather than a case of newer=worse.

This is also a mount in Maplestory 2. You literally just hold a body pillow and run around super excited at high speed. I got one from spinning a prize wheel owo

This PC is only a few months old and runs CO perfectly.
I very well may, but first, I'll be making a custom toon and playing the single player campaign.
I love that Soul Caliber has robust character customization, which you can then take online in PvP.

I already knew that you have a dirty mind, but I'll go ahead and mention it again as the cause of that kinda gross comment.

Yeah apparently it has single player content worth doing, unlike Tekken 7 >:T
