Which Bioshock game Liz?


And I'm zapping my way through Dragon Age: Origins with my elven mage. Got the difficulty set on nightmare, so the game's putting up a good fight.

But so far it's losing.

Good man!

Excellent choice. One of my all time favourite games. Now that you've mentioned it I might have to replay it myself for the 384759275th time


I'm currently playing through Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag, since it was free on the Xbox One. Got 100% completion on the 360 version so I might try for it again here.

Heh, my character isn't. So far he's:



I'm thinking this guy might be my anti-hero character, being a right bastard about saving Ferelden.

How could you

Did you ever finish the first Bioshock, Liz?

Heh, that's not far off from what you-know-who did during her stint in Thedas...

I've completed Sleeping Dogs main storyline. It's a very fun game, I like the setting and combat a lot.

I'm gonna try and 100 percent the achievements and the DLC I have

Pick it up during a sale if it interests you

Well, my bastard run at Dragon Age Origins continues, he's now wrapped up the business with the treaties, for maximum pragmatism of course. In all honesty, it's getting kind of boring. Nightmare difficulty is no match for an Arcane Warrior with massive armour, boss fights tend to come down to him wearing the thing down while the rest of the party go down. Takes a while, but the guy's practically unkillable, so he's got the time.

Arcane Warrior with the right stats, right abilities and right equipment can solo the final boss. Tis a pretty OP class, really.

Yeah, it's one of those classes that throws balance clean out the window. I'm actually considering ditching this run. The plan was to take the character into Witch Hunt, but with how dull this monster's making the game, it might just ruin it.

I've got a couple of other character planned; another mage; Blood Mage/Spirit Healer or possibly Arcane Warrior(not for the talents beyond combat magic's ability to expand equipment choices), and a sword and shield fighter, I'm thinking Berserker/Reaver for something more offensive.

You could try one of my builds that is just so mediocre in a fight. Basicay, this build's all about Talking For The Group, and when negotiations die and violence ascends, he goes at the party's flank and throws bombs and other harmful flasks while healing and supporting the other party members.

It was a fun challenge.

The focus shifted from the main character to maintaining proper growth on the others.

Well I've not taken a proper crack at either style of character in DA:O. I took a stab at an S&S fighter, but it was pretty boring, though Berserker/Reaver should give him a more offensive setup. And without the Arcane Warrior's resilience the mage could be pretty interesting, give me an opportunity to use more of the spells, there's a fair few I've not tried out.

I figure I'll try something that isn't insanely overpowered on Nightmare before trying something more limiting.

Edit: Scratch that, Champion/Reaver, not Berserker/Reaver

edit 2: Actually, either might be fun...

Destiny was a biggie for a while...Rather enjoyed the simple delights of shooting-aliens-inna-head sort of thing...

Then I got to a certain point and had to stop again...

So far - aside from a couple of not entirely enthusiastic hours on Dragon's Dogma this morning - nothing else has grabbed me...

Waiting for Fallout 4 is a strange one, as I can't decide if the sheer variety of options isn't going to be too much for me, these days...So I may stick with me Assassin's that's coming at the same time...

All good fun...

Play some Fallout 3 like the rest of us!

-One of us! One of us!

-Fallout whut?



Great to see you McB!

Been playing Dragon Age: Inquisition. Played a bunch on the 360 when it first came out, but the quality was less than impressive. Now I have it for the Xbox One and the difference is incredible. Looks good, sounds good, plays good. Good.

Also playing Pokemon Omega Ruby. Taking aaaaaaaages to level up all of my Pokemon to beat the Elite Four. Grinding is never fun. I'm on the right track though.

Well, wrapped up DA:O and the Witch Hunt dlc, and decided to restart. This time as a human noble(to get that ending) dual-wielding warrior.

As it turns out, thanks to some dlc goodness, he's simply terrifying. He's just torn through Ostagar faster than any character I've ever played. That ogre went down in about thirty seconds. It was madness.

Acadian!!... ...

Y'alright mate?... ...



Aaaamywho...

Having read an article about an upcoming expansion made me realise that the only thing I really want to play at the moment is Destiny, when I feel the need to play, this is what I'm doing...

Fortunately it's one of them games where you can go to it, get something specific to achieve (in the form of "Rewarding" bounties/missions) and then go shoot aliens inna head for an hour...

Simple and devoid of any real need for thought...Properly loving that aspect of it at the moment...

Neverwinter. Damn good MMO, and free at that, and an action MMO at that, and on Xbox One at that.

And a Rohirrim at that

About to finish Mothership Zeta expansion to FO3- which will complete the FO3 experience. Except I think I missed one of the early recordings for Alien Archivist.

And (full credit to Bethesda for this)- the non-linear, "alien" nature of the mothership is such that I really do not want to backtrack to try to find it.

So onward to destroying the next generator- Hangar Deck, I believe.

It properly did my head in at the time...Not too difficult, I appreciate...But the sameyness and the "Have I been here?" so often got a bit much...

Plus, the ferrying of stuffs down from the ship got to the point where a Deathclaw kept spawning at the teleport point...And Dogmeat...

Oh my...Thus ended the original Arnaud's game...


This afto, for a time...I SHOT ALIENS INNA HEAD!!!!!...

Ahhhhh...Simple pleasures for a simple man... ...

Well, I'm not quite playing it yet, but Cyrodiil's calling to me once more, so back to Oblivion it is. Not sure which of my characters I'll run with first...

Does anyone know if I can download a complete version of Plants vs Zombies somewhere? And yeah, a free complete version...

Got ~60 hours into Dragon Age: Inquisition and suddenly thought "Hey, I wonder what it would be like with a different character!" and started again. My new Dalish Elf Inquisitoress looks gorgeous though, so playing back through the game will be a delight.

For me, looking at a beautiful character makes the game that much better and more fun to play. And I like to try them in different outfits, and play in 3rd person so I can see them as they do everything in the game, lol. I remember when I first got the Kawa mod for Maxical that I just ran her back and forth just to see her in action and watch her tail bob around, lol.

Exactly. If you're going to spend hundreds of hours with a character, you might as well enjoy the view. I always end up choosing outfits that look good over those that actually are good. Like choosing leather and fur armor over glass.

Yeah, I think that is why Maxical spent the last four years wearing a (non-lore-friendly) Tee shirt and the Spellbinder pants. Here she is looking sad in Anvil because the "Sutch" RP ended:

Getting close to the end of DA:I with my favourite ever inquisitor. but while I wait for the war table operations to finish up (which can take up to 15 hours each, and there are loads of them) I've been playing Stronghold Legends.

I love RTS games, and The Stronghold Collection is the only thing in my Steam library. In fact, it's the only reason I ever downloaded Steam in the first place. Being a console player doesn't afford me many opportunities for strategy games.

Since no one is able/willing to help me , I keep playing the Zombotomy minigame in Plants vs Zombies. Pretty fun even though I don´t advance

Because McWife keeps hassling me to play the Templar oriented Assassin's Creed: Rogue - which I have yet to do, despite its being out nearly a year now, because Templars...I don't understand...

Anyways...

Because effort, I can't go from Destiny PS4 to a brand new AC on PS3...So I'm going via my favourite, Assassin's Creed III...Because Haytham Kenway...

*Sigh*...My heart isn't in this, but I'm sick of hearing, "You could play Rogue now..."... ...

I liked Rogue. The Templar thing was a bit odd, considering I've spent several centuries helping the Assassins out. Game's fun though. It has penguins in. Haytham Kenway is there too - he hangs out on your ship sometimes while you sail about.


I'm very close to finishing Inquisition. About to hit the 100 hour mark with Inquisitor Ellana. Some more DLC is being released tomorrow so I really want to get to a high enough level for it. Have an update to download first though and with my internet speed, it could literally take all day.

Still haunted by the Master Chief Collection download that took 4 days. *shudders*

I like Inquisition, but the game bogs down terribly during the first 10-15 hrs. So far I haven't been able to progress far enough to turn my Herald of Andraste into the Inquisitor. Please tell me that things pick up once that happens.

Wow, great graphics! She is pretty!

Oh yeah. Once you get out of the *%&£*% Hinterlands area the game gets more interesting. The first point I always hurry to get to is talking to Mother Giselle, who tells you to go to Val Royeux. Once you do that it opens up more areas to explore and more things to do. After you become Inquisitor the game fully opens up.

I'm currently playing *takes deep breath* Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked.

The sequels coming soon so I want to get it completed. And it's got quite a few endings to find...

All finished with Inquisition now. The newest DLC was pretty interesting - exploring The Deep Roads, getting some of that sweet sweet lore. Hope they bring more DLC out in the future.



...now I have nothing to play.

The Sutch RP?

*dons a contemplative look, then wiggles eyebrows at mALX*

Oh, and I'm playing Starcraft 1 because I'm a poor, poor man. I much rather prefer playing against AIs, but it's beginning to get stale, TBH.

Don't just wiggle a contemplative eye, Rouse dammit man!

A couple of weeks away from home made me miss Skyrim but not ESO. So Skyrim it is. A little contest with an orc, checking out ghastley’s Argonian Hearthfires mod, and I’m sure the Nord will want to say hello. My ESO characters are going to hang out and research crafting traits for a while.

Dynasty Warriors 5: Empires - because sometimes you just feel like single-handedly conquering ancient China.

Has anyone tried the new updated Knights of the Old Republic 2? I loved the two KOTOR games, and I have not played them in a while. So I was excited to hear the news about this.

But what disappoints me is that it appears the only Windows version of the updated game is on Steam. Does anyone know if there is a non-Steam Windows version? I have not been able to find even the slightest hint that there is. And given that some of the things the new version touts are Steam acheivements, Steam cloud saves, and other Steam stuff, makes me think absolutely not.

But even the Steam garbage aside, the new version does offer widescreen and hd monitor support (resolutions up to 5k). I am guessing what the Force Speed Effects option they added was to remove the blurring it caused, which drove a lot of people crazy. The Restored Content Mod that is being advertised with it sounds like it adds a lot to the game as well.

So has anyone tried it yet?

Not me. The only Star Wars game I play is Rebellion

Been playing Metro Redux, the shiny remake of Metro 2033 and Last Light. Managed to get the 'good' endings on both games.

Lots of Russian. Lots of mutants. Lots of gas masks. Man, nuclear apocalypses sure are fun.

Magic: The Gathering

Or rather, I'm trying to find someone to play Magic: The Gathering with outside of University because I dropped about £30 on deck builders' kits and a few starter decks and now I'm suffering a severe case of buyer's remorse.

When it comes to card dueling games, I usually just download a free game off of the AppStore. It's much more easier for me to find an opponent. Still, I miss those days where the battle was physical. At least you can get a read on your opponent's facial expressions.

Not to mention sling insults at them.

I totally haven't made up a system for Magic where you get bonuses for rap battle-style shade throwing on your opponents. I'd never be that sad
