How playable is KOTOR2 nowadays (windows7)? Do you need to mod/patch it to get it to run well?
Same for jedi knight games. I am thinking about buying all the jedi knight games even though I used to own most of them.
Lastly, wayward... anyone play that and have an opinion?

KOTOR2 is great now. They updated it and re-released for modern setups/resolutions. It has workshop support as well so installing mods is easy as.
I mean, they said they would be actually taking advantage of the open world this time and what they did was add a ton of missions where you drive a truck, car or boat from point A to point B. And the story missions were better in Mafia 2.

So many things on sale, and I'm here contemplating buying Total Warhammer DLC that isn't discounted at all.
What have I become?
It's actually complicated. Sims 4 is far and away the most appealing visually, and I think it does the best job "being a game" rather than just a playset, but Sims 3 and especially Sims 2 have a lot more content and customisation options. The only drawback to the older entries is they've become increasingly saddled with bugs and glitches due to their sheer size. (Longer loading times, memory-related hard locks, AI becoming broken and ruining the game, etc. It's particularly bad in 2.)
So, I'd go with Sims 4 unless deep customisation is the key thing here, then go with Sims 3.
And don't worry about expansions unless you really dig the base game, or can get them at a decent price.
You get it. I can't articulate why--it just feels right.
The constellation system makes builds soooo fun, too.

I tried to go back and play 2 and 3, but the performance is just crap. 4 is a good game, though you will miss out on some stuff such as the open world.
FF14 has a sub. ESO does not. Just so you know.
Well, FFXIV has a monthly sub, whereas TESO doesn't. If a monthly sub is no problem for you, I highly recommend FFXIV.

Yeah, mom never got into computer games much. Works on a computer all day at work so she didn't want to go home and sit in front of a screen again. She did like a few games like Sid Meier's Pirates though.
In other news, has anyone played Halcyon 6? It looks interesting but the way it's got varied stuff makes me wonder if it didn't get too ambitious and spread everything too thin.

Picked up The Witness and Factorio. Gonna have some fun with the mental challenge.

It's great on all of those points, story is a little light, but what's there is interesting I think.
Have you played any of the other Zachtronics games? If you liked them, you'll like Shenzhen IO. If you haven't played any of them, then you should try it. If you dislike them, Shenzhen IO is unlikely to change your mind.
Low flight mod is great, but yeah. Wait for it to drop further.

My impresdion of Arma3 is that you can mod the game so it becomes any other shooter you might want. In which case should I get that instead of payday 2 or is everyone playing overwatch type like shooters now. the pool of people I can with is small since im in japan and people game on toasters if they even have a pc.

I've finally decided to Idle Master all of my cards. Most of them are worth jack, but nevertheless, currently sitting at 7,75 in card money and with over 90 cards still listed on the market. Almost got that free copy of Axiom Verge which I have been aiming for.
Edit: Though with a bit of luck maybe I can stretch it and get Hyper Light Drifter instead.
Nah, go with your first thought and get Axiom Verge - if you have even the slightest liking for all things Metroid, you'll not regret it!
Never played Waves, but GW is one of my favorite games, so I'll encourage you to go with that.

I'M HEARING THAT SOME PEOPLE DON'T LIKE TO BE GIFTED A STEAM GAME LIKE THE BAD RATS SHOW!?

With so many amateur-level indie games, eternally-unfinished early access games, abandoned episodic games, etc.on Steam now, is Bad Rats even in the bottom 10% these days?

The only reason you shouldn't is because it's been as low as $15 for a Steam code at Gamestop recently. Although, that's gone back up again.
The hell.. I can only assume you play without markers and are super meticulous about mastering each level.
Any ideas?
Also for the love of god get Outcast 1.1
One of the best open world adventure games of 1999, updated for modern systems. Played countless of hours of the original back in the day also voxel graphics baby!

Yeah, this was my first Hitman game too. I'd seen and played the others a little but never really followed the franchise. Picked up this based on good word of mouth and it's amazing. One of my favourite games of the year. Lots of replay value and a great game all round.

I've only put in 74 hours but it was worth every penny at $60.
Holy shit.
They're both great but Waves is cheaper, go for Waves.

Can't decide between the new Shantae, CrossCode or Hyper Light Drifter
Because it has imense replay value

Not sure if you didn't get the joke or if that's a real slick jab at Hitman's server issues lol.
I bought mgsv and the beginning pissed me off so much. I lost count of how many cutscenes I skipped just to get to the gameplay. Then the first few bits of gameplay consisted of several segments of fucking slow crawling. Does it pick up soon? Should I stick through it? Is there a good game in there after all the bullshit.
I feel like at that point, it's less about being entrained and more about a surgical dissection of the game. I can't recall the last time I've done something like that in a single player game.

I haven't, but something about Shenzhen just caught my eye enough to want to give it a try. Yours is the first time I've heard of it being in the running for someone's GOTY list, plus I know you enjoy shmups so I trust your judgement

I should get back to Hitman sometime.
Waves is what I wanted to hear since I can pay for it with the cards I sold. Thanks.

I've put in 34 hours into Hitman so far, and to be fair that's with me only actually having mastered one of the episodes to max level, and I have done little of the user-made and escalation contracts.
So I could easily see 100+ hours in that game if you're a completionist.

i'd say that's very much arguable, specially to this degree
people enjoy the game as much as they like, nothing wrong with that, but i don't know if the game is really providing much of anything at that point
lol
