Empress_Owl: :-O ... !!!!! we can't let it do that... next time my boss is going to make some coffee I jump and tackle her >:-|
I know the odds are incredibly low, but I would seriously pay to see a video of you tackling your boss. ;)

I'll ask one of my colleagues if they are willing to film :)

CarrionCrow: Actually, it's the opposite. The game only engages part of the mind. The rest of it will still jabber away ceaselessly.

What's bugging me is, why spend 60 hours on something like that when I could spend the time on something that might be memorable for qualities other than doing the same level 1,500 times.
I see... After a while of playing Volgarr, I noticed that my mind would just start thinking about life and the world, and all that boring sh*t :-p
Then I noticed that I had played it for about 37 hours. Roughly the same amount of time I had spent on Dragonfall. The enjoyment ration between the two games was about 1:44. So I promptly threw Volgarr out the gogdamn window.
I don't want to completely eliminate hard games from my rotation though. I just need to figure out when I need to stop. Maybe set a time limit for myself or something...

-laughs- You don't have to go to that much trouble. But the thought is fun. =)

AgentBirdnest:
That sounds all too familiar. I think a lot of people have missed the point. They focused on making a game hard, rather than making it good.

A time limit's tricky. The hardest games will chew through allotments like they're nothing. Then you're stuck deciding whether to throw away all the time you spent, or throw away more trying to beat it.

bela555: I tired Doom multiplayer during the beta, and ahh yeah it was very bad. Fortunately the single looks so much better in the gameplay videos. So maybe I'll buy it on winter sale this year, next year or whenever it will be cheaper.

skimmie: Really? What's wrong with the multiplayer? I haven't tried it or even seen any videos of it yet, mind you. I'm just geniunely curious. I would expect any Doom game to have at least a passable multiplayer and was hoping to recreate the Doom fragfests that I used to organise at my house when the original Doom was released...
It's clearly designed for consoles, too casual gameplay, the melee is a joke, controls are not very smooth, unbalanced weapons, limited console style map editor, loadouts instead of gun pickups, popping damage numbers....
I doesn't feel like an old school shooter sadly.
Apologies for leaving mid-conversation, but I should've been asleep 4 hours ago. Still need to catch up after the weekend.

Have a good night/day, everyone. =)

Oh my...Somehow I don't think this will be our multiplayer shooter of choice...

Has anyone ever tried Serious Sam 3 local multiplayer? I'm thinking of playing that instead since apparently, all of my friends have a copy!

Maybe just a daily time limit then. No more than an hour a day, so you won't get too carried away. (Yeah right... I can hear myself saying "Wait! Just one more minute! I need to finish this level!!"[/i] as an hour suddenly turns into three ;-p)

Good night, Mr Crow. Sleep well :-)

I own a copy, though that would have to be online multiplayer. :p

Oh...I was hoping I could use the dedicated server tool to set up local mp...:-/ Oh well, I'll have to think about a suitable game some more.
greetings!

Superbly tired as per usual. and it's looking quiet here.
*sits down for a bit*

here's another wallet-murdering series which according to a... almost reliable (at this point) rumour is coming to gog at some point... in the future.

Personally, now that I think about it, Momodoro III is a pretty awesome game. Sweet, polished, and not icky-sweet, platformer :)

*gets up*

oh-kay now. Time for food and nap.

Cheerio!

It might be possible?
I've never really tried.
I can't even remember if 3 had a LAN option. :l

Ha !... nice to know... thanks for the info too :)
I don't play much lately, I'm more into TV shows (we started Games of Thrones) and knitting... :-P

Today's 2 releases look cool :-)
