lately I've been playing a lot of Classic Doom (GZDoom port, modded with a smooshed "Iwad") & Dragon Age: Origins (modded as well)

I've been playing Sheltered since yesterday, the game's quite fun until some bandit tried to break my shelter and I couldn't equip any weapon i had for defend it, instead fight them with barehanded. Then, what's the point all weapon & firearms I've scavenged if not for a defending the shelter. :/

I adore Sheltered! I played a lot during early access, and no one attacked your shelter back then. That is frustrating, and I hope they fix that. I remember I loved the battle music, and then they did an update that changed the music. I'm still heartbroken.

Resident Evil - Revelation, Wii U; I like it so far, so good.

Started Titan Quest, like it. Then thought "I think I have Grim Dawn, which is kinda similar". Started Grim Dawn.

Making a trickster build (Nightblade and Shaman masteries).

Best thing I like in both games - loot.

wrc 5 and dirt rally
compared to dirt rally wrc 5 is more akin to ridge racer

Playing Final Fantasy XIV a Realm Reborn with some friends (just unlocked the Black Mage Job) and Stellaris on PC

I really like Stellaris. I played some 4X games before but none other immersed me quite as much as Stellaris. It's intuitive and easy to learn, has a great universe, soundtrack, art-design...I highly recommend it.

Other than that I found an original XBOX last week with some games and I'm having tons of fun with it. Right now I am playing Mechassault.

Beat Last of Us yesterday. It was pretty fun, although I did end the game with a stockpile of weapons and ammo I barely used unless absolutely necessary. The bow came in handy though. Stealth-murdering was just too much fun, but I must say that late-game flamethrower is just fucking awesome. ;) I'm also glad I was able to play it for free due the PSNow trial. :)

Played around a bit with a PS2 emulator and Dolphin and some not-so-legal copies of games after that, mainly out of curiosity. I just wanted to see how well those work on my PC. The PS2 one seems to run just fine, while Dolphin probably needs a little bit beefier machine, although it did run Mario Kart Double Dash almost flawlessly at 60FPS. That was fun, but I did delete all that stuff again because I do have qualms about illegally acquired games. *shrug* As it is, I have way too many paid-for games in my backlog to even having to resort to piracy.

Anyway, I also played around a bit with Titan Quest and Munch's Oddysee, which curiously has all the cutscenes from Abe's Oddyssey and Exoddus as "backstory". For a ten-year old game Titan Quest looks damn good still. Plays nice, too. I had no clue as to what to pick for the skill-tree and I ended up picking the nature branch. We'll see how that goes. I think I'll spend more time with Munch's Oddysee first though. It's a fun 3D platformer so far, and interestingly enough seems to have some of the major mechanics of the first two games.

Fallout (Classic)

I installed some of the recommended mods on top of it which apparently fix some things and stuff.

Liking it generally so far (especially the skill system and how you can choose your allies etc.), but some annoyances:

1. Yes I get it the world is destroyed, but could there be a little more variation in the sceneries? Everything is so drab and the locations I visit are anything but memorable. Yeah yeah broken houses here and there, everything is rusty brown...

2. The game is very skimpy in music. Apart from the title music "Maybe", there is merely some atmospheric background sounds in the game. No music even in combat. I was kinda hoping similar feast on my ears as e.g. the Infinity-engine RPGs (Baldur's Gate 1-2, Icewind Dale 1-2 etc.), but no. Oh well.

3. So I have a party with a dog and two hired guns... but I can't control these other party members in any way. I'd want to wait outside for some raiders to come out so that we could blow their heads off one by one, but no, my party members just walk right in the middle of the baddies, getting themselves killed. I'd prefer it had similar system as e.g. the aforementioned Infinity engine RPGs.

4. That 999 bottle caps transaction limit really sucks. So here I am, wanting to buy a sniper rifle, a power armor, two metal armors, a combat shotgun, a .44 Desert Eagle, and ammo for those all. It all costs almost 180000 caps.

Try paying up that much by transferring money with 999 caps at a time. DAMN! So I have to transfer money about 180 times. Same for buying those skill books to buff up my character, they also cost a lot. What the heck were they thinking when putting such a money transfer limit to the game?

(How did I end up with so much money to buy the weaponry? Of course by having a good gambling skill and a good Luck attribute, and gambling away until I had more than enough money.)

San Andreas and Musou Orochi Z. Just struggling to get at 100% for both (that's a pain and lots of grinding).

Next on the list is the newcomers of GOG Titan Quest and the Shadow Warrior updates! And i still have to tackle that huge drag called Witcher 3 (way too long, brrr)...

B-17: The Mighty Eighth and Wolfenstein 3D

Zeus and Titan Quest.

Any more greek and I'm going to shit out a Doric column.

Halo 1 and 2

Played through most of 1 then 2 came in the mail today (brand new, I was kinda suprised :P ) Only took around 3 hours to get it running in Wine.

That's... an interesting image. O_o


Just started a run through Shadowrun: Hong Kong and it's good to be back in the 6th world.
