Started playing Witcher. Cool game, despite having a weird combat system.

Sometimes I think Mass Effect was designed to troll me. The AI is weird and causes team members to get trapped between NPCs, and the characters get into weird positions.

Had started a new game and was mucking about near some markets when Garrus crouched down behind Kaidan. Was concerned he was the third team member to get trapped tonight so I went to talk to him. "You can buy anything you want here, legal or not," he says while staring directly into Kaidan's ass.

Did not have a response to that.

At least he wasn't trapped.

Huh. Weird. Wasn't there also something about the AI suddenly wandering into your line of fire?

I don't think that's going to happen until ME2 when I split up this starcrossed interspecies pair. Space soap opera, here I come!

I really wanted to buy Destiny and PS4 and now regretting it little... .___. Does anyone play Destiny here? Is it good or not?

Does anybody know of any games like Flaming Zombooka that exist for free on the internet?

Huh. How about that.

I haven't played Destiny, but I've heard a lot of people say it's sort of mediocre.

Just played it. Hmm.
Well, there's Bloons. I don't play many flash games, but I know there are others somewhere: http://www.addictinggames.com/action-games/bloons.jsp

 

[Tealeaf]

Huh. How about that.

Whatever, dude. Don't quote me, then.

I realized how rude I was. Sorry.

Now that I'm at my parents' home during Christmas holidays, I doubt I'll be able to play any games...but it's nice to know that I still have this old half-strategic shooter called 'Cold Zero' installed. It's the only thing that runs without stuttering on this old laptop here.

Oh, and there's also 'Stranded 2'. Some freeware survivor game where you're stranded (what a surprise) on an island. Was programmed just for fun by a single German guy. You can hunt turtles, lions and raptors, built your own house and smoke weed...best game ever.

As some people here know, I used to have a huge problem with gaming. I've beaten that, but I seem to have replaced it with my new addiction - buying games but never actually playing them. I've bought around 40 games in the last 2 weeks not counting bundles. I doubt I'll ever get around to playing most of them.

I did play Fading Hearts which is a Visual Novel, but with more decisions and choices than your average VN. A lot of people disliked it's short length, but I prefer my gaming in bitesize chunks these days.

So, you're a fan of smaller games? Hmm... ever heard of Five Nights At Freddy's? (If you're a horror fan)

It's not really my kind of thing, but I do know what it is. It kind of reminds me of the old Sega-CD/Mega-CD game Night Trap - only with animatronic psychos instead of sorority sisters

If only I could sell games back to Steam. Binary math was less confusing than Terraria, even with the little help guy who doesn't actually tell me anything.

Okay... selecting and clicking my workbench in a variety of ways does nothing, and there is no "use" option in the settings... I'll try throwing it.

You're exaggerating. If a buffoon like me was able to figure everything out after two hours of disoriented running around and pinching zombies with a laughably weak tin sword, you can do it as well. Put your gray matter to use.

...you tried clicking the stuff that pops up in the inventory screen when you're close to your workbench?

I'm absolutely not.

I only just figured out how to place crafting tables in the first place after my third Google search. Apparently it needs three "blocks" of space, but unlike in Minecraft there's nothing to intuitively suggest the size, position, or number of those.

I threw my other table down into the caves and it's too dark to retrieve it.

It is to be expected that the size of a work bench is no bigger than a single person. This is as far as intuition goes.

But the zombies and cave dwellers appreciate your wooden gift. I'm sure they'll show their gratutide sometime...guess who's coming for dinner?

Some rabbits. I tried to axe them if they had a reservation, but you know how animals are.

I played NaissanceE in 4K. I enjoyed the experience immensely and it looked stunning to boot.

I can definitely second that. Too bad it was so short though...maybe I shouldn't have run through it like a maze rat.

Because of my previous problems with video games, I prefer my games to be bite-sized. I found it just the right length for me, but I can understand how others might want something slightly longer for their money.

It was a stunning looking game though and it has a very unique feel to it. I'd certainly purchase a sequel should it ever come to fruition.

I've got a lot of similar games awaiting my attention - Kairo, Fract, Eidolon, Mind: Path to Thalamus, Proteus etc. They should keep me in bite size portions for now

I can understand where you're coming from. I still gotta admit that NaissanceE was a bit more costly than the average Exploration game. Nonetheless rewarding of course.
A sequel sounds interesting and not too difficult to realize - the creator left it very much open-ended after all.

I remember seeing Kairo on Steam recently, but I had waited for a few more positive reviews before leaping at it.
Eidolon looks good as well...a friend of mine just advised me that it's part of the Weekly Bundle, so it's definitely worth its money now.

Coming to think of it, I should have another go with 'Dream'. It has been lying around in my library for too long...
