What have you been playing recently?
The last thing I played was DS, it was my fifth and last time completing it. It's a good game, but I don't wanna play it so much that I get sick of it.

I've been playing a mixture of games, but the main one I'm playing at the moment is Nier. Since 2 got announced I thought I'd play through it again and actually finish the sidequests. I have one left but holy fuck it's the most tedious shit to do and it's to do with growing flowers.
Thanks for this thread OP, /v/ has me depressed.

I am grabbing the remaining endings and other cheevos in Neptunia Re;birth 1 and 2.
I've also been into PSX stuff since I got a PS2 this year. Been really enjoying Ace Combat, I've halfway through 5 now.

I can't seem to enjoy games anymore, at all. I don't know why. I've played less than 20 hours this entire year. I guess I've gotten my fair share of it during childhood or something.

Mostly replaying a few games, haven't played too much for the first time
>Blood II
Finally got it to work on Windows 7, it was fun but the difficulty balancing is awful
>FEAR
Dunno why I didn't play it earlier, it's pretty fun to be honest
>007 Nightfire
It's James Bond Half-Life, basically, it's not bad but it's not that good either
That's about it, dunno what I'm going to play after those.

Been trying to finish my KMS, no damage, no upgrades run on God Hand, though I think I might be overextending myself since I'm not good enough to finish it without struggling in one stage for a few hours.
Also replaying Red Dead Redemption. This is my 6th time playing it over again, I think. I love this game so much

CS:GO has a really, really bad community. I'd wait a few days to see how your friend reacts, hopefully he gets over it.
If you still enjoy playing the game then I'll gladly join you in competitive (if you're in the US, internet is too bad for international), though be forewarned I'm not super good

I play a lot of f2p grindfests and spend money on them. Planetside 2 is my go to game right now. SOE/Daybreak is a flawed company, but the game is still fun. The community is dying, so I'm getting what I can out of it.
I was playing World of Tanks one day, and suddenly got messaged by someone from 8/v/. He had seen a video I posted, and remembered my name from it. After talking for a bit and deciding he wasn't a creepy stalker, we grouped up and played for a few hours. I never have anyone to play with, so that was nice (I hope I didn't hold him back). It was the last thing I would have expected to happen. Problem was I was bored with the game, so I just couldn't be bothered to sign back on. I hope he doesn't think I blocked him or something. I may have been hiding, too. Not sure. Someone actively wanting to play with me is so rare it's off-putting.
I have to finish up Dark Messiah of Might & Magic. Not sure why, but I always stop playing a game when I get close to the end. Terrible habit.

Competitive is only fun if you're an expert at the game. You're not allowed to make any mistakes. Some people have that mindset even in casual modes. I quit playing MOBAs because of that.

I've been playing Splinter Cell blacklist. Having never played splinter cell before, I quite like it.
also had one go at the co-op, it seemed kinda cool. maybe I will do that again. Does anyone else play multiplayer with internet people on PS3? Most of you all seem to be PC gamers with Steam and stuff…
I also recently booted up Open Arena, reminding me of good times past in Quake 3.

Yeah, a few, namely drawing. I used to read a lot too but games eventually took over.
I just can't help but feel like I should be doing something more productive if I'm playing. Which doesn't make sense considering how much I waste time on chans. But I just can't get immersed in it anymore.

Well if you like FPSs I like Red Orchestra2/Rising storm. If you like Grand strat, I'd go with Total war or any of the Paradox games, under RTS I'd say Men of War or Sins of a Solar Empire. If you want a relaxing game where you don't have to think to much about it, I'd say Euro Truck sim2, or, city builders like the new Tropicos, Cities Skyline, and Banished, or cozy games like Kerbal Space Program, and Space Engineers (Personal favorite). All these games I have on or are available on Steam.

Either I'm getting old, or the increasing trend of online gaming is just too high paced for me; everything seems to be a competition nowadays.
Moreover, the shitty political and social going ons in the gaming industry puts me off of vidya even more. It's just so exhausting, I just want to play simple things that make me happy so why make such a big deal out of it?

I didn't enjoy it as much as Demon's and DkS1. I played through those two games dozens of times, and only played through 2 once.
Honestly, I still haven't played the DLCs for it, either. I wouldn't say it split the community. When DkS1 first came out, the same thing happened and Demon's Souls PvP purists when back to it and started talking smack about DkS1's PvP.
You'll always have "that" group of people among competitive communities in video games. It's the same thing with 3rd Strike purists and tournament USF4 players, and Monster Hunter Freedom Unite players only playing that single game because they feel the newer games are too easy, or something to that effect.

There are a few puzzle/mystery games for the DS.
There is Hotel Dusk, along with its sequel Last Window, both feature an ex-cop doing his detective thing. Both have very good stories, and have a light film noir feel. Thinking about these two, I should get around to replaying them.
Theresia is a thriller themed adventure game, where you play as an amnesiac who wakes up in a dungeon full of traps. Movement is made in typical dungeon crawler fashion, and when you get to any areas of interest, you are presented with a picture n the bottom screen which you tap to interact with things, some of which are trapped and can hurt you.
Another Code: Two memories is another puzzle game, but I never got into it, so I can't vouch for it.
Flower, Sun and Rain is a puzzle game developed by Suda51, the guy that made Killer7, No More Heroes and Killer is Dead, so the story gets confusing and abstract at times. It's about a private detective that get's called out to an island resort to investigate some problems they are having. The music is nice, consisting of remixes of various classical pieces.
As >>18569 Mentions 999 is a good one, the only problem would be that trying to discover the true route on your own will have you replaying the puzzles repeatedly, which gets boring, so try playing it twice(or maybe it was 3 times) on your own to go through all the different puzzles, then use a guide to get the endings you want to see, as your dialogue choices along with which combination of puzzles you pick will determine which ending you get.
Fug, I almost forgot to mention the Phoenix Wright series. If you haven't played it, you play as a lawyer, and in order to protect your client, you investigate crime scenes for evidence, then use that in court to expose any contradictions and blatant lies in the prosecution's assertions.
I wish there were more English puzzle VNs

Currently I've been switching it up between Dirty Bomb (The only game I've been able to play with /v/ on) and Rust (I only play because I know a coworker who plays it and he's the only one I can play games with)
Lately I've been kinda sad because my friends are too busy or going away and aren't able to play games, or even talk about them. So I'll end up beating a game and then have no one to talk about it with and be stuck with these memories and no one to talk to. It kind of sucks.

Regarding the game itself, it is really lackluster. I seriously have no idea what happened at Gamefreak during this Generation but even XY itself was a very disappointing games and so are ORAS as both game and even as a remake.
I know Gamefreak are very incompetent developers but this is a brand new kind of idiocy from them. What I wouldn't give for Pokemon to be given to more competent people. It's a franchise ripe with potential but sorely wasted right now.

If we get enough people, I'll stream it to hitbox or twitch or something and we can all make a night of it.

We really need about 4 people to get this thing going, so make sure to speak up if you want this to happen. NO ONE ELSE NEEDS TO OWN THE GAME. YOU PLAY THROUGH YOUR INTERNET BROWSER.

Lately, I've been feeling less and less motivated to do things, and it's actually kind of frightened me, it's kinda just popped up, this strange unsettling feeling. I started spiderman 2 for the GameCube, and I'm enjoying it quite a bit, but I'm worried I'll just drop it, and not pick it up again for weeks upon weeks, and it'll take me months to actually beat it.
I've had this feeling for awhile (showed up maybe a couple of days ago, or so?) do you think it's good I don't play nearly as much as I used to. Should I fill my time with other activities instead?
Oh, and spiderman 2 is super fun. Combat is really nice, moving around the city feels really fluid, quick and satisfying. There's a bit of a learning curve to the game, combat wise, but i think it's easy to pick up. And there's a ton to do. I was suprised at all this, and I think anyone who's into open world stuff should give it a shot.

Watched my little brother play the new Battlefront after going to the midnight launch. Unsurprisingly it isn't anything like the old games and looks very bad. From what I can tell the extent of the content is like less than ten dull game modes, no campaign, no galactic conquest, no clone wars teams, seeminly no ability to get in vehicles, maps are pretty much decorated rooms more than anything- just a generic shooter. Oh, and they shove girl power in your face with both the commanders who give directions (overly-specific to you) being women and the rebel survival mode character being a girl. At one point an AT-ST was called a "chicken-walker".
So yeah, not to bum anyone out but I felt it the kind thing to do to confirm anyone with doubts' fears.

It is fun in my opinion, although it can be difficult for beginners to understand, and the dice can and eventually will screw you over.
If you do get this game, get the Chaos Edition since that is the complete version of the first Blood Bowl game (and while Blood Bowl 2 is more beginner-friendly and has a better UI, it only has 10 teams compared to Chaos Edition's 23), and for videos, look on Youtube for a guy named cKnoor who plays this game on his channel. There are also tournaments on Youtube like the TGS Blood Bowl League and the Crendorian Invitational.

I'm pretty passionate about video games as a whole. I like to look at the history of it and stuff. I remember emulating yet to be translated games as a kid. I'm fine with most genres, eras, and platforms of games. Some of my favorite series are Smash Bros, Castlevania, Fire Emblem, Tales of, Street Fighter, F-Zero, Devil May Cry, Final Fight, Rockstar games, Metal Gear, and more. Recently been emulating alot of beat em ups. I do have PC games, but my laptop is pretty terrible and can't run more demanding games like Warframe. I plan on getting a good gaming Computer in the summer though. It seems most people I meet online just play TF2/Counter-Strike/Battlefield all day. Which is fine, but I don't have a good gaming computer yet. Its rare I meet someone who's deep into console, handheld, and PC stuff.
I still follow gaming news and everything, but I can't enjoy them as much as I used to anymore though. I don't think I have "grown out of it" or "gotten tired of it". I just guilt myself so much. "Why are you playing this game when you could be studying or doing chores?". I need to learn how to relax again. I also honestly waste too much time online. All of the time I wasted online could've been used for movies, games, music albums, reading, stretching, working out, cooking, etc. the list goes on. The internet literally causes me to procrastinate from leisurely activity.
Anybody else have this issue?

I don't have that problem with online games, probably due to a lack of a good gaming computer. I do play Smash online alot though instead of starting new games. What I tell myself is I'm too busy to start a new game because I'm too busy to give it the attention it deserves, so I just keep playing the same couple of games. My backlog just keeps growing too. I think that's why there are people out there with 500+ steam games.
It's especially easy to fall in that trap in online games because beating other people feels fun and you also get to interact with people as you play them. I spent so much time this past summer playing the same two games with my ex instead of starting new ones.
I dwell alot on the time I wasted, but I don't think it's healthy. All it does is make you paranoid and unable to relax, it makes you sit there and choose what activity you want to do in your leisure time, before you know it 2 or 3 hours have passed.
Honestly I think 1/2 hrs a day of vidya isn't so bad. I feel like I "grew up too much" and now I can't enjoy things. I just have to relax. Also man that anime was qt. I still have to finish Shin Mazinger.

You can still play a bit. I play them because they're entertaining and I love them, in addition to this I plan on making games on my own some day. Just little side projects. So I don't feel as if I'm wasting my time.
Of course I feel like our situations are different. My big problem is internet addiction, I don't game as much as I used to. Why? Because the internet is such a distraction it's making me procrastinate from entertainment, like gaming or movies or whatever. Also I have a pretty good resume for where I am at so I'm not worried about that.
May I ask how old you are? I'm 22, so not many of my friends are marrying yet.They are doing decent career wise though. Also goodluck with all the self improvement stuff. It's pretty difficult being consistent.

It's been a really rough few hours so far; I pretty lose almost every engagement and I've just been a hindrance to all the unfortunate players that are forced to be my teammates. I've even gotten kicked from a few games because of how bad I am, but I'm actually having alot of fun.
Playing CS has really humbled me because I usually don't have trouble performing well in FPS games, but now I know how much effort it takes to become good at this game. The process of learning a game is really exciting to me.

It may be spooky, friend, but I feel it's a kind game because you have to be mindful and take care of your mercenary friends' mental health. By getting them help when something is troubling them, giving them a quiet place to meditate, or buying them hookers.

When I first saw a commercial for Bully way back when on Adult Swim I thought it looked like a really lame game. I consistently hear people celebrate it on the chans though so now I feel it's a must-play. Who knows, maybe a chunk of it was that the latent /kind/ spirit in me didn't want to embrace anything under a bully label.
Sort of vidya-related I've been having a real good time reading the Pokémon Adventures manga. I got the whole series of 14 volumes for something like $60, probably some of the best money I've spent. I mean it has it's flaws definitely but it has a ton of fun with the source material and what seems like a questionable story element often redeems itself in a cool way. I wanna go back and play the old second generation games now but it wouldn't be possible for me to trade (like, in the unlikely event I had a pal to trade with) or get the time working right if I emulated on my flash cart and finding a working cartridge would be more of a hassle than it's worth. Nintendo will probably release them digitally but I'll bet they gimp the letter function to that nonsense they have going now because they need to let bullies ruin things before they can even lift a finger.
So there's my lengthy blog post for you.

So is it just a good-looking fighter with good atmos or is there an actual story behind it?

I think I know exactly what you mean. Certain, if not most of the Final Fantasy titles are this, right? They take the hands-off approach to storytelling, leaving much of the really juicy bits for the player's imagination to fill in. However, they do this out of laziness, and it shows. The characters are shallow, and the story has a bunch of gaping holes in it that leave story nerds feeling very unsatisfied.
I am a biased as fuck Dank Sauce fanboy, so take this with a grain of salt, but Dks1's story is not self-contradictory or lazy. But it is a lot of work to figure out on your own. The devs actually encourage guide-reading, and talking with others to collaborate in figuring out both gameplay and lore subjects. They say this harkens back to the old days, when games had real secrets and you would explore them together via forums and chat rooms. So if that sounds terrible to you (not judging, it's a matter of taste) then you won't like it much. But I suggest giving it a pirate anyway.
Demon's Souls is a mystery to me because no ps3. So is BloBo. I still don't understand why no PC release. It's like they hate making disgusting amounts of money.
Dank Sauce 2 swings and misses at nearly all the points that made the first one great. But it's servicable, and the PVP is more fun no thanks to the increased artificial input delay. You will not like this one.

Well, the game itself is basically a visual novel with a bunch of puzzles thrown into it. A key element, lack of a better word, is the use of "digital roots" which the game does very well to explain to you.
The story itself; however, has a very ominous tone. I won't spoil anything, but I'm actually very scared on how my decisions will effect the rest of the characters.
Music is good. I think I'll get the soundtrack when I'm finished with the game
I currently have progressed farther in one day and have entered storyline territory that I haven't been in before.
Also, the game seems to run well despite being played on an emulator.

I'd started Tri-Force Heroes feeling like I had wasted my money. I mean the single player option is tedious bullcrap, multiplayer seems inherently flawed by the lacking communication options and stupid players, crappy matchmaking (oh Nintendo…) and the icing on the cake being reused npcs from A Link Between Worlds in the hub world. Getting to the second or third world though you can expect your partners to be a little more competent and the things they throw at you for level design and bosses are pretty neat and it feels good to be using your teamwork. If you like Zelda I guess I'd recommend it though I haven't finished it.

theres a handful of games that i like to pop in to when i cant figure out what i want to do, when i just want to kill time before something else or even just because theyre good and i feel like playing them.
maybe youre looking for something like these. although this post is 16 months old so hopefully youve figured it out by now. but it gets the gears turning and gives me an idea of something else to post.
crypt of the necrodancer is a rhythm game merged with roguelike elements and a pretty awesome soundtrack as you would hope from a game like this. even the shopkeeper sings along to the music which is sometimes annoying and sometimes awesome. everything is done with the arrow keys, you use items and spells with combination presses. i wonder if anyone has played it with a dance pad
one way heroics is largely a roguelike from a different perspective. instead of finding stairs youre constantly walking to the right because the left side of the screen is being annihilated and youll die if you touch it encountering friend and foe along the way. youre also periodically harassed by the boss, and various hit squads. there are several victory conditions, of course defeating the boss is one of them.
if you like games where you have to make the best of what you have on hand instead of just upgrading to the best gear and forgetting about everything else this might be up your alley because some of the biggest aspects of the game are item conservation and inventory management.
sure that axe is leagues stronger than what you have but you dont know its durability and it weighs a ton. but you could create your character to have a higher weight limit if thats your style.
the soundtrack is also fantastic. various and wonderful scores by people who make royalty free music for indie games. sometimes you might just want to take a break and listen.
spelunky is again inspired by roguelikes. are you tired of hearing this yet?
you descend a cave system and try not to die. resource conservation is again paramount as is thinking ahead. bombs and ropes arent always plentiful(but sometimes they definitely are), and you might consider health a resource too. you can only carry one thing in your hands at a time, whether its a damsel in distress, a treasure, a rock youre carrying to throw at traps and trigger them safely or a shotgun.
you will wince and feel silly every time you take damage, health is super hard to come by. some people prefer to zip through as fast as possible, or rob the shops which is extremely dangerous, but rewarding.
theres a freeware version and a retail game. some people dislike the retail game and it does feel a little different in some ways but nothing i can recall seems like a huge deal. in the freeware one i think you can drop unlit bombs to trigger traps. however, the retail one has a bunch more content.
super house of dead ninjas is another platforming game about descending, however you really have to haul ass in this one because you have a short timer that you need to constantly collect powerups for to refresh.
it feels like an arcade game, you select a weapon, bomb, projectile and ninja magic and then youre thrown in to non stop action until you win or die. theres plenty of unlockables to keep you busy.
infested planet is an rts or maybe an rtt where you fight through countless aliens. you have a small team of space marines who for the most part control like your typical rts dudes. you can command them to build structures or upgrade them to different units/weapons.
you dont 'spend' resources in the traditional fashion. its more like you have a maximum amount of value you can have on the field and you can freely recycle things as you see fit.
you increase this limit by capturing points on the map, but this also powers up the aliens who gain or change a mutation. its all a big balancing act where youre constantly swapping weapons and techs around to try to stay a step ahead of their mutations.
theres a story campaign, random maps, and a 'conquer the territories' mode.

I'm not him, but I agree with what he said.
>How is the combat in that game
Very different from what you're used to if you haven't played ArmA games before. It's an extremely tactical, slow paced, team work oriented kind of game. To start with, you will need to use every last key on the keyboard (plus a few key combinations). Singleplayer showcases and campaigns are very fun and you will spend dozens of hours with them to get grip of the game. Multiplayer is mostly co-op. The terrain is just fuck huge so you will [b]HAVE[/b] to listen and stay close to your team mates. The shooting itself is beyond the scope of what "long range" means to Battlefield et cetera. In most engagements, you will find yourself and your team mates on a mountain, shooting at a group of enemies on another. At times you will take aim and fire a bullet at time, watching them fly over the valley and making adjustments after each shot. At others, you will just lay down suppressive fire as you wait for player controlled mortars, bombers or missile artillery, whichever support you called HQ for. It's that kind of game. Have you ever watched Afghanistan combat videos? You know, when they mount a GoPro camera on a US soldier's helmet and upload the recordings to LiveLeak? I think ArmA 3 developers can be proud to be able to say "yeah, that's what our game looks like!.
>Are the servers populated?
Fairly. There always are some 3 servers with 64 players on them, 5 or so servers with 20 to 40 players on them, and then the hundreds of those empty servers with 0 to 3 players on them. I recommend 7th Cavalry servers, all players are communicative and mature, moderators are very present and above all they're a very tacticool type of server.
>I've been looking for decent game focusing on combined arms lately, but there aren't that many.
There's no other game better than ArmA 3 at that. There also is ArmA 2 but its servers are desolated, you'd have to join a community or "clan" for multiplayer to be viable.

I bought a flashcart and have been playing through some NES games from my childhood.

I hope you're having fun with them anon. I tried playing some DOS games I played in my childhood, but most of them seem harder than I remember them to be.
I've also been playing some FTL, it's quite hard, or at least I find it hard. I'm enjoying it though, the only thing that is a bit annoying is when others teleport on your ship, it can get really stressful dealing with everything at the same time.

It cost a lot of money, but it's worth it for me to be able to play just about every game on the console the old-fashioned way. I'm actually considering selling most off my NES game collection off to help fund some for other systems. It's not like I spend much on games nowadays anyway, and it's pretty much a one-time thing.
As far as DOS games go, I still really like Castles II and WarCraft. The latter is really dated gameplay-wise, but I still love it. I wish games like these would get modern ports like the ones OpenRA guys are doing.
