The Video Game thread

I haven't been following this thread at all
Just wanted to pop in and say I'm STILL playing skyrim.
Prob. The best game ever made.

I recently created a new character as an orc just because I always make a regular human or dark elf in those kinds of games. Now I can look mean. I just have to figure out how to make the gameplay feel fresh so it'll keep my attention somewhat I upped the difficulty and I'm thinking about playing it more "realistically;" only carrying what weapons a person could actually carry and so on. I kind of miss the feature they had in Morrowind where you could create your own spells to get really weird and innovative effects.

ITS SO HARD TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE HELL

JUST WAIT UNTIL YOU TRY TO BUILD CIRCUITS LOL
it'd be cool to have an ILF server. I know that I wouldn't be able to sick with it anymore, though.
I really loved doing no-continue adventure mode. that hermit simulator.

Thinking about picking up Sims 4 while my buddies play Destiny.

I grew up playing Smash Bros, so my body is ready for Sm4sh.

Anyone looking forward to the Destiny release?

Just bought Minecraft...

Me too. It's pretty great. Been watching youtube videos about it.....tutorials and such.
In peaceful mode, in my own world is real fun. Can mine, build, do whatever without the worry of getting killed by zombies.
I also play on a server with a few dudes.....but they have it on hardcore mode. I had to isolate myself and makes lots and lots of torches.

Sadly, the new update makes the game nearly unplayable on my shitty laptop.

I tried to play skyrim, but couldn't get into it. idk.
I'm picky though. I really only "love" D3 and Borderlands 1......."like" GoW, Bioshock, and Mass Effect. lol

I finally feel like I've gotten the hang of Dark Souls II pvp. Either that, or my build isn't complete shit haha. Using the Fume Straight Sword/Poison Channellers Trident in my right hand & Notched Whip/Pyro Flame/Blossom Shield in my left. For Pyro I'm using Great Fireball, Great Combustion, Outcry, & Forbidden Sun. Won a fair bit of matches in the arena last night with this...compared to winning 2/20 in previous experiences lol

Seriously, I'm avoiding gaming websites again for the next year or until that utter #Gamersgate horse shit dies.

Nothing much like socially awkward teenagers talking anonymously about an industry that have zero experience in. Games are more fun than shitty people.

Finished the second season of The Walking Dead.
psst psst about the ending

NSFW: show

yo if you didn't choose the Kenny ending where you stay with him then get the fuck out
Although the one where you remain in Wellington was the most emotional and a good second.
Both Jane endings sucked, fuck Jane. It was hard to see her die, but...

destiny, anyone? may go buy a ps4 after work...

[Vuvuzela]

is it worth it to buy a PS4?

i'm broke but i feel like i should get one or the xbox one...any arguments for either are appreciated!

Most arguments about one or the other usually come down to what has better exclusive games/what kind of gamer you are
Generally, if you like playing online with friends/shooters go Xbox, if you like story/RPG/playing alone go PS3/4
Personally, I'm probably going to stick with my PS3 until it dies and then immediately get a PS4 for Bloodborne and the Order


Also trying to play Metro and failing miserably at combat/stealth. Is it better to sneak around people rather than try to kill everyone?

I'd wait a while if you decide to get the XBOX one. A friend of mine got one shortly after they came out and he's been complaining about it's un-user friendliness ever since. Maybe after some time they'll update it and it'll get better. That being said, I haven't used one personally so Anyone else here have one and have opinions on it?

[gunslinger_burrito]

It's really cool how much depth there really is to Dark Souls 2. Whenever I wiki something (to find a weapon, or get a hint on something tough) I come across all kinds of shit that a casual player would miss if they weren't backtracking to previous areas to open locked doors or talk to NPCs after boss fights. I think my favorite is:

spoiler, if anyone cares:

NSFW: show

The Santier's Spear. I love that it's a total piece of shit when you get it, but if you break it, it becomes really awesome, and actually un-breakable. Rad little cookie there.

I also love the little story lines with the NPCs, and how you can get their gear if you complete them.

Shrine of Amana is funny, though I don't know why I think so. So far I've been eaten (one hit kill?) and fallen into the deep water because I didn't even stop to consider that it dropped off

[LOCOPELAND]

Oh man, Shrine of Amana was such a fucked up place after they released the game. Damn near impossible to get through. They nerfed the hell out of those casters.
