Oh I understand. He's also only using Sega Net
::crying intensifies::
What are your usual gaming platforms?

now mostly steam but I haven't played anything in a while.
there's also such a thing as offline gaming, even if many peepz don't believe it.
*goes there*
Aww, I was kinda hoping it was something.
Liar, offline gaming died in 2010 I went to the funeral.
Oh I remember you were complaining about Witcher 3 (I regret not taking this one with me to Shanghai honestly) not running properly on your rig. So no consoles/handhels?
Forgot to mention your pic with the cat was cute. I'd make out with you for sure.

you can play GOG games offline.
and I still like some older games. ps2 never dies. finding a partner to spend nights playing Champions of Norrath together is a life goal of mine.
What are your top 3 all time games?
I played through it with my brother back when it was new
Me and a mate played the fuck out of that game back in the day.

Champions of Norrath was such a surprise at the time, before release I would have bet anyone 100 bucks that it would suck but it was about to carve out it's own little legacy aside from Everquest.
Did you ever play the Dark Alliance games?
Same, we had basically just got over our Everquest addiction and got sucked into Champions of Norrath.
I'm eagerly awaiting the Stardew Valley macOS release so that I don't have to virtual machine to play it.
Such an amazing game.

kind of silly that you need the Steam authenticator now for selling summer sale cards. I'm not interested in Yet Another App, so I guess 'free money' is out. Oh well, I've got popcorn and some Rambo to watch. Boosh.

hm this is always hard. I can't do this. there are too many unique and cool games out there.
in no particular oder but:
Planescape Torment, SotC, Spec Ops: The Line...Witcher 1+3 are also right up there. and FF7. obviously also Bioshock but I can see its flaws too now. and Dark Souls 1 but I never got past O&S :S Undertale was great too. aand Champions for coop action.
same here!
I did but I always liked Champions more since you had more liberty in making your character
Respectable... If I had to make a top 3 I'd probably say Dark Souls, The Last of Us, and Super Metroid. Close runner ups are Don't Starve and Shadow of the Colossus
I still need to try Spec Ops the Line. I don't even know what it's about except horrors of war or something.

Fine choice. I think the VIII soundtrack needs a re-listen right about now
I think I actually have this when my brother bought me it years ago.
Same. Whenever the question of favorites or tops comes up I have a hard time answering.
Unfortunately the money went elsewhere. The best couch co-op game lately I think is Diablo.

I honestly am soo fed up with the TLoU hype. like...it's not the first emotional gripping game. it had a cute face but get over it people.
I'm not sure you'd like Spec Ops. I obviously think it's genius. especially taking developer choices and circumstances into account here but a lot of people get hung up on the mechanics that honestly aren't top notch. (which is pretty trivial imo)
but the less you know the better if you want to play it.

Can a game be too good? Is that the flaw?
Yeah? Had a good premise but for me it got boring as fuck very quickly.
Still finished it and it's far inferior sequel.
Divinity: Original Sin is the best couch co-op game on a console that I'd played in a long time.
trab pu kcip
Member
true. <3 and there's a new one coming up :3
I don't get it either. while I worked at Gamestop people came asking for cool co-op games all the time and I really couldn't recommend anything :/

maybe I'm just overly critical here but I was only a fan of the first one. and that also kinda paled in comparison to System Shock. but it'll always have a place in my heart.
I backed it! Very excited! Spec Ops is a tricky one for me. I really respect what it tried to do but as a game, I found it pretty underwhelming. It just wasn't really all that much fun and I ended up lowering the difficulty about halfway through just to finish it faster.

Don't let the bad times erase those perfect and beautiful memories of perfectly timed shotgun blasts at Houdini splicers.
The game got under my skin and I kept thinking about it for days afterward. That has to mean something.
It also happens to be one of the only video games I can think of that has well executed writing and acting and character development. You don't see that much.
I eventually like to try things that left a big impression on people, that's why I've been meaning to try Spec Ops. I just want to know for myself what it is.
trab pu kcip
Member
me too!
I think it has a problem with expectation since everyone hyped it so much back in the day.
that's why I said the less you know, the better. I still think a lot of visual stuff is pretty outstanding. also all the references. and the music<333
Oh yeah, I forgot they released that on console. That game is a blast to play with a friend.

I'm starting a fresh Pillars save. Who should I model my character after this time?

write each of our names down and like pick one without looking.
D:OS was great...
Now I just need someone to play it with on the couch.
*stares wistfully at the empty spot on his couch*
Need to put on my Tinder profile:
"only DOTF if you'll play Divinity: Original Sin w/ me"

Yeah, but games is easy:
Half-Life
Starcraft
Deus Ex
I would love to add Mass Effect 1 on account of the massive hype I had for it though. But the reason I list these three is because these are the ones (except for DX. Much reinstalled but little played) I return to on occasion. Half-Life is probably legit the best game ever made though. Perhaps not 'designed' because it literally took twelve years to patch (which is where Steam comes from), but ultimately the most refined in terms of gameplay serving story, not some halfway hybrid or whatever.
Spec Ops the Line is great as a game that needed to be made though, because of that whole praising violence (against actual humans that is) in Call of Duty.

There is but you can't choose aquamarine
Me. I was going to model mine after someone in this thread but couldn't choose, a moon Godlike named Illuna it is.
A bold strategy Cotton.
He can put you in as classic Jobbs.
Many things built on the templates of those games are superior to their original inspiration.

Them be fighting words!
But as much as I also like games that came after that, I don't like them to the same degree. They don't surprise me or challenge my problem solving ability, which I still got from those games at least. Braid was neat in that regard though.
Also, "Freeze under the shower" :
Qu'est ce fuck
What is that list anyway? People making random posts?

Me neither. I didn't want on the list anyway.
we'll make our own characters!
