What computer games do you play?

[Waateva]

Well Arkham Knight is an absolute steaming pile of garbage. Batman is now magic with magical powers, you are a ****ing car for what feels like 75% of the game, the combat is still basically a long quicktime event, the "puzzle" designs were undoubtedly designed by syphilis riddled chimps, and HO-LEE **** the plot is so full of holes and convenience you could use the script as a colander. It's so bad, and not in a good way. I am trying to think of another title, but honestly I think Arkham Knight is the worst game I have played in 2015.

Did you play it on PC or console?

Console. XBO.
Bugs aside (and there were numerous bugs) I doubt my opinion would change on a different platform. I still hate the core driving gameplay, script, design, and pacing.

[chancellorr]

I play a lot of CS:GO but I'm total garbage. I also recently got back into Titanfall. Playing a decent amount of Fallout 4.

[Cados]

I play Nosgoth a lot haha. Mmm..  Fallout 4, Modded Skyrim, The Witcher 3, Borderlands Series, Bioshock Series and Metro Last Light Redux. I used to play FFXIV AR but that burned me out with all that end game grinding. 

[Connly33]

A lot of euro truck simulator 2 ( seriously dont knock it until you try it, especially with the multiplayer mod, i have 700 hours in the past few years ....) Kerbal space mission, Project car's, some minecraft with tekit mods, Titanfall, hoping to get rainbow six siege soon. Lately i've gotten back into dying light as well.

[genkidama]

I've just recently found Civilization Brave New World and played it till 5am yesterday. Such fun, missed something like this :]
Other than that Apotheon is really great for a 2D indie game, also good story!

Damn dude, 700 hours? I like ETS2 but I can't play it for more than a couple of hours at a time. I need to get the multiplayer mod though, that looks like serious fun. Can you just download it off the Steam Workshop or is there a site you need to go to?

BNW made Civ 5 better than Civ 4 for me, and with almost 1700 hours logged I urge you to play just one...more...turn.

We should play some Titanfall. I've been looking for people to play with.

I know right, just one more tuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurn very much good, what is social life anyways?

Happy New Year guys!

Finally played through Bioshock and Infinite as well as Burial At Sea 1 and 2. First two games I've played through in one sitting in a very, very long time.

10/10 Amazing experience. Any suggestions on other games like them?

[Altis]

I bought Civ 5 a while ago and haven't played it yet. Just seems like a steep learning curve. I spoke with someone recently who did the same.

I mostly play CS:GO, but lately the ranks have made that kind of messed up for competitive, anyway.

Age of Empires 2 recently got an expansion pack that's pretty cool -- mostly just amazing that game is still being supported after all these years.

If you want to try something rather unique and less time-consuming or time-constrained, take a look at Frozen Synapse. It's a turn-based real-time strategy where you give your units 5 seconds worth of very specific commands, then see how it plays out. Very fun, easy to dabble in and play over the course of several days with friends, and the soundtrack is excellent.

[Vittra]

Finished Grey Goo and it's DLC (3 missions) recently. Petroglpyh games is made up of former Westwood employees that left after EA took over. Pretty enjoyable game on Hard. The resource system reminds me of a hybrid of C&C and Total Annihilation.. the game almost makes me want to get back into multiplayer RTS, but not quite.

Also finished Toren, which was incredibly short. Think I played through it twice in four hours.

Finally getting around to playing Legend of Grimrock. Pretty interesting take on the old classic rpg style of ala Eye of the Beholder.

Am I the only one who is still "stuck" playing Skyrim 5 years later?  )
I have all these fresh new games to play but I always just go back to killing dragons and punching guards.

  haha yeah that was a hilarious one. I probably spend way too much time modding and tweaking compared to playing.

Skyrim is still such a great game. It's one of those games I haven't fully explored; I only ever dabble in it a few days. So it's still kind of like a new game to me, in a sense.

[FLFisherman]

Right now I'm focused on Dark Souls II (and dying to see more from Dark Souls III). However, I've got several other games I need to get to, such as Far Cry 4, Witcher 3, several Resident Evil games (from a Humble Bundle), and more.

I've had DSII sitting in my Steam account forever, I told myself I'd play it after Dark Souls 1 to get into the world and get the gist of things, well that never happened. I should probably give it a try, how are you finding it? Did you play 1?

I played the first one on the Xbox 360 (when it was free; Games with Gold). I really loved it. I am finding that this second one is just as entertaining, and connecting to people for summons is a whole lot easier. Not only that, but you can summon three friendly phantoms into your game so my friends and I have all been playing together. It's a blast.

Let me know if you're interested in starting it up. I'm always looking for people to play with.

Oh, and just like with Dark Souls I expect to die a bit. It's just the nature of the game. XD

[mobbo]

Been playing a lot of Terraria with some friends.

I really thought I would be over it after an hour or two of playing - but it really is quite fun.

No such thing! After beating the first game once I went ahead and played through again with a new character. I stayed at soul level 8 the whole time (in order to make ganking easier once I finished ).

[OfTheWild]

Has anyone played any point and click games? Like where its a story and you kinda click around a screen 'investigating' things or figuring out puzzles and stuff? My wife loved that game 'Grey Matter' but i cant seem to find anything similar that she likes.

[deductivemonkee]

JC3. I even figured out how to fix the crashes! (Because nobody on the internet has a guide yet I did it myself) Right click justcause3.exe and set compatability mode to win xp sp2. I have almost 12 hours in it in 2 days. So good. It's like saints row and grand theft auto's child on steroids. No more needs to be said.

I love The Neverhood, which is a point and click game.  It's Claymation from the late 90s, so it may look a bit dated (and doesn't run all that well on modern machines, so VM for sure), but man is that game solid. 

The developers of The Neverhood just released a new game this past year, Armikrog, which is done in a similar styling.  Unfortunately I am still waiting for my copy to arrive, so I can't comment on how the game is.  :|

And for reference, the guy who made both of these games also created Earthworm Jim.

A lot of euro truck simulator 2 ( seriously dont knock it until you try it, especially with the multiplayer mod, i have 700 hours in the past few years ....) Kerbal space mission, Project car's, some minecraft with tekit mods, Titanfall, hoping to get rainbow six siege soon. Lately i've gotten back into dying light as well.

Damn dude, 700 hours? I like ETS2 but I can't play it for more than a couple of hours at a time. I need to get the multiplayer mod though, that looks like serious fun. Can you just download it off the Steam Workshop or is there a site you need to go to?

I may be overestimating by 100 hours ish, but i know its at least 500 to 600, between my few accounts, to be honest i first started playing on a pirated version a few months after it came out, and i played that quite regularly, only a couple hours at a time but nearly every day, it was my main way of killing time and procrastinating with school work untill senior year when i had to stop for awhile. Occasionally i'd do 5-6 straight hours. But a couple years ago i finally got it on steam along with all of the DLC.

Id be up for it sometime, even though i'm not the best i like to play it a couple times a week when i get the chance to kill time.

Forgot to answer your question, you have to go to the mods website, you just make an account to verify you own the game on steam then you download the mod installer, they update the mod very frequently with nearly every euro truck steam update. And it's really well done.

[Zapheo]

I've been playing this little game called Realm of the Mad God. Pretty addicting loot system. It's kept me entertained for a while now.

[Waateva]

Friend bought me GTA V for Xmas so I've been playing mainly single player but a little GTA Online, pretty fun so far.

[Brammm87]

I play League of Legends with a couple friends and I recently picked up Minecraft again. Don't have a lot of time for anything else. Played some Just Cause 3 which was fun but got stale after a couple hours.

[trizkut]

I've been playing a lot of Rainbow Six Siege with friends lately.  It's pretty fun when the servers aren't being absolute garbage.  Also, UPlay sucks.  I'll get back to league soon though.

mostly been playing rocket league, csgo (just gun game), and hearthstone

i did play all eps of the kind-of-game Life is Strange over the weekend, i didnt realize that game would hit a nerve, the correct ending made me cry, tears and all and im a 6'1" 315lb man and im admitting that to everyone on geekhack i cried, first time something on screen has done that in a long long time. i dont think everyone reacted that way to the ending but for me it struck a nerve. and this is a game where you play a 18 year old spoiled hipster girl, and im 31 year old male. strange the way these emotion things work.
