Stoked there's a gaming thread now but surprised at 0 topics.

So I'll start it off with a pretty basic question. What are you currently playing? What would you rate it? And is it worth playing?

I'm playing through the Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection. I never got to play them through when I was a kid cause I never owned a PS. I played the last game when it came out and loved it. So now I'm starting from the beginning. Just finished Drake's fortunate and I'd give it a 8/10. Definitely recommend!

Cause there's also Games forum.

Wow there is...Oddly it doesn't come up under forums for me. I found it by searching, but I also searched my topic title before I posted and nothing came up. Why is there two separate forums then?

And uh my bad lol.

gacha games should be made illegal. They're like a mix of casino and drugs.

Even when you're not paying money, they're wasting your time with exponential grind and timed rewards (daily and weekly) you're really just like a cow in a farm waiting for the next free meal.

Play a real commercial game instead.

And by that I mean not an asian game, because even the big commercial japanes games have pointless grind in them nowadays.

Don't fall for this shit.

Skyrim, Final Fantasy 8, and Black Ops 4.

I’ve always loved Skyrim and the Final Fantasy series when it was made by Squaresoft.

Black Ops 4, idk how I feel about this game but so far I think a 4.5 out of 10 feels fitting so far, but I’ve only put about 3 hours in it and have only played in the Character testing mode and I’m pretty positive competitive mode will be the same feeling. I just need to try out the Battle Royale mode and see how that goes.

Only 4.5...that sounds low even for CoD. I did love playing the first one with friends. I have a Skyrim addiction! I've been itching to play but I'm trying to finish other games first

I read an article on how the reward system in these games, like the loot boxes or chests, affects the brain. It is very similar to a drug addiction. And that's how they get people to spend money. They start out giving you the rewards, and so the dopamine releases in your brain. But then they space out the rewards and make them harder to get w/o money. But you spend cause you want that high.

Can anyone of you beautiful lovely gamers recommend a good game for me on android advice? I'm getting tired and bored playing the same game (water splash) and being stuck on one level for entirely too long.

I don't play a lot of app games but I can give a few suggestions.

If you're looking for something similar there's jelly splash, cookie jam, and Candy crush.

I have played and liked sword man monster hunter, Sims, Minecraft, and a few word games. Spill it, neko sushi, and looper are fun, time wasters.

I played a little bit of Diablo 3 on the switch today. Mainly waiting for Fallout to come out. May get Spyro too.

I hope Fallout is good, I've heard the demo made it seem disappointing. I love Spyro! I need to get that on the Switch 😮

I played one day of the demo and I thought it was alright. It seemed pretty similar to fallout 4 to me, even though others don’t seem to agree. I don’t have too many complaints about it so far, but all I really play fallout for is the exploring anyway.

DBFighterZ occasionally. I'm waiting for KH3 ❤️!

I need to get a switch though, I'm psyched for Smash Bros Ultimate. My area has a huge smash community. No pun intended.

Can't play it at the moment but once I have a working GPU again I plan to get back into it:

Idk what this is but I like it!

Basically L4D with melee combat, classes and semi-randomized loot.

When you put it that way I guess I'm sold. Just weird I've never heard of it. And its coming to PS sometime this year apparently...Sony why you so freaking slow!!

I don't know about Sony being slow. How long did us PC gamers have to wait for GTA 5? and by the looks of things, it will be the same with Red Dead Redemption 2 - that's IF Rockstar decide to do RDR2 for PC.

My sympathies. This is why I'm more of a console player. Even then Sony is notorious for being late to the game (pun intended) on cross platform releases.

Well, it's small studio and Warhammer is still quite niche as an IP. It's to be expected that no one outside of those special interest groups has heard of it.

Be warned that this game is pretty difficult and skill demanding on the higher difficulty that you have to play for the better loot.

I see.

Well I enjoy a challenge, besides I've played all the Dark Souls games, think I can handle it.

Bayonetta

Not my cup of tea. There's a good fighting gameplay and some nice graphics but 90% of the game is about watching an atrociously bad anime with endless Quick time events and boring boss fights. And I'm not a fan of the animepunk nonsensical mixbag setting.

Smash Bros Ultimate should be great. I played Super Smash Bros on a mates N64 a few years back, although I can't say I was a fan of the N64's controller.

But yes, get a Switch if you can. I only got one because it's the first Nintendo system I've had since my Famicom and Gameboy back in the day, and I like the idea that you can take it with you wherever you want and jam games on the go, or you can play it docked in front of the TV at home.

There was a smash demo in my area today. The line was 3 hours long.. I'm all eff that, I'll just wait till it comes out. The cool thing about the switch is they're making it compatible with the old game cube controllers 👌

My first system was a SNES, I still have that baby too and in working condition 😉. Never heard of a Famicom.

Baldurs Gate, Totalwar: Warhammer, Football Manager, Monster Hunter Worlds & Pokemon Insurgence.

These are the games I'm currently cycling between.

Which Baldur's Gate? I think I used to own that game a few years ago, but after moving I've seem to lost it or maybe I am thinking of a different game. It's now on my wishlist though. 😄

BG2 is the one you want to play. It's the one everyone raves about.

BG1 is very different gameplay wise, a lot less interesting than BG2.

If you want to play both, just don't let BG1 disgust you because the enemies are constantly respawning and it's annoying.

Bought the new Pokemon game for the switch cause nostalgia. And I'm loving it, feel like a little kid again. Unexpected but adorable mechanic is you can change your partner Pokemon's hair. So now my little Pikadude and me have matching mohawks😎
