Alright GAF, here is the question I put before you:

Risen? Vampire: The Masquerade? Or both?

That's easy, Vampire : The Masquerade. I've heard people say that Risen is somewhat buggy and I think you can even pick it up for free at GamersGate.

My question is if New Vegas is EASIER to mod. I know that FO3 requires you to have to manually pull files out and then delete ones you don't want and to re-compress it so you can add it to the Mod Manager.

I'm totally spoiled by the Nexus Mod Manager + Skyrim. Download with manager, activate mod, hope it doesn't crash the game and go on with life. FO3 takes work and I'm still figuring out whats compatible with what through those compatibility mods.

I recently played FO3 and modded it via the Nexus Mod Manager and from my experience, it works exactly the same way as it does with NV and Skyrim.

I didn't so any of those insane conversion mods but I didn't install only skins either.

Last minute panic sets in...anything I need to grab from yesterday's deals. Hmm. I already have Amnesia, PvZ, Fallout, and Alan Wake. After everything Krater still temps me. It's a great idea, but everything says it's poorly executed. Must wait...

Alright GAF, here is the question I put before you:

Risen? Vampire: The Masquerade? Or both?

Vampire. There are other games like Risen, and there are likely to be more.

We will probably never see a game like VTM again

 

[BadAss2961]

Graphics whores: have you been able to get past Vampire's visuals and get just as immersed as everyone else? That's my only concern, it just feels like it'll be one of those old games i get from a steam sale for a few bucks and play for 20 mins but maybe not, i need assurance.

Bloodlines looks fine. Graphics won't be a problem.

The only thing that might be too dated are its combat mechanics. Most seemed to hate the combat, but I enjoyed most of it until the game went nuts with it in late parts.

 

[Tomat]

It might be a tumor

Could be!

You are strong-willed or you have all the games you want?

Nah, I buy games that I don't play more often than I should. There are games I legitimately want, but I haven't picked up. I was interested in Gothic II, Risen, and GalCiv II. Passed up on all of them so far.

 

[toastyToast]

So, would Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, be a rite of passage for a Gaf user?

It was the Moby Dick of sales until it dropped by 33% last summer sale.

Thinking the planets had aligned many of us jumped on it. Two weeks later it was $5

It's a piece of Steam GAF history

 

[tylerf]

Hmm Oblivion. I've never played it but I'm not sure I would enjoy it as much after Skyrim.

 

[Ultimadrago]

And quick advice needed. I didn't play Fallout 3 but I'm curious about New Vegas. Is it worth playing if I haven't even started F3?

I like 3 better, but yeah New Vegas is worth playing anyways.

Oblivion is god awful and ridiculous compared to Morrowind and Skyrim

[toddhunter]

"New" flash deals: Oblivion and Bulletstorm.

Posting for new page:
No one has managed to make me laugh out loud yet, first one who does gets a Bastion code!

 

[Giard]

Might get Morrowind, I have it for the original Xbox but it runs like crap.

edit: ...and bought.

 

[OniShiro]

Bought Burnout Paradise Ultimate and Far Cry 2.
I wanted to spend only 30€ on the sale, and I've spent 35€ already...

 

[Nelo Ice]

Already have Oblivion on disc but looks like Morrowind finally hit 75% off. May have to pick that up.

 

[Hakkuei]

Alright, here's hint number 2

There are exactly 14 games referenced in that sketch. Can you find them all?

The games are from all over the place and from many different genres.

Humm I have 8 of them.. I'm stuck.

Anyway, your sketches are awesome! Love them.

I remember lurking on the forums and reading the prayers of Gaffers last year, it was fairly entertaining.

Alright GAF, here is the question I put before you:

V:TM. you can play risen for free, with a ad in front and no gameplay interruptions, on gamergates the void

 

[Pancakes]

Played both Oblivion and Skyrim but never actually got around to Morrowind. Does it hold up well GAF?

 

[dragonlife]

I recommend Bulletstrom. Fun FPS even if you aren't a big fan of them. The score attack-like gameplay is satisfying and fun. Discovering new methods to kill someone and getting points in colorful text... there's really nothing else like it.

Also, it's extremely vulgar in language, which adds to the charm. It's a goofy game.

 

[Gaspode_T]

Oblivion is pretty different feel of a game than Skyrim, there is a bigger sense of urgency to the main plot line after you start triggering the portals and there is way more dremora/demon stuff. I liked both games. Oblivion scales monsters up but you can outsmart it or just outgrind it. Honestly though unless you are an Elders scroll fan then there might be other things to play (like Witcher 2 or Risen...)

That is a terrible opinion and I could not disagree more. Morrowind and Skyrim are just as bad.

I know there's this one mod which requires you to choose the files you want for the version you want and then repack it so NMM takes it. Also, there are so many compatibility issues between thing's is sort of a headache to sort through them. I need to find me the ultimate compatible all-in-one overhaul pack or something. Guess I'll try again tonight.

 

[FloppyDelux]

So is krater any good? looks eh from the GB quick look

Is bulletstorm a fun fps?

Just beat Ys: Origin in a little over 10 hours. Awesome game

 

[Lingitiz]

I love Oblivion but holy shit that art style is so damn hideous.

 

[Dog Problems]

Is bulletstorm a fun fps?

Very fun and very over-the-top.

Yes.

[BiggNife]

yo guys

buy bulletstorm

okay thanks

 

[Conscience Falls]

Fine.... I'll cave and purchase Bloodlines. I have no idea what I'm getting into.

 

[Tomat]

Wonder how well Bulletstorm would run on an AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core 3800+ 2.0 Ghz.

Fine.... I'll cave and purchase Bloodlines. I have no idea what I'm getting into.

If you like RPGs at all, you won't regret it.

 

[hitmon]

For Oblivion, is Buy The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion® Game of the Year Edition Deluxe the one to buy? The extra DLC any good?

I didn't enjoy Oblivion on the 360 the first couple times i tried it, but I loved Skyrim. Anybody give Oblivion a second/third chance and end up loving it? Maybe mods improved experience?

 

[j-wood]

Give or take how many hours is bulletstorm?

Running low on funds so I gotta make wise choices

 

[GundamBanshee]

Would you recommend Bloodlines to some who loves RPG's but has no interest whatsoever in vampires?

 

[Katoki]

Homg Oblivion. Don't care for the portals though, wrecked the entire surrounding area with red and orange.

Definitely rebuying. It was really nice in itself on the PS3 GotY but now I can higher.

 

[Tess3ract]

Bulletstorm is good if you want a good script and interesting weapons but the combat is kind of meh and the mechanics are bad.

Bought it

 

[The Grim Heaper]

Guys, buy Bulletstorm over Oblivion if you had to choose between the two.

thank you and goodbye

 

[Crayons]

From what GAF told me, its horse armor.

OMG Morrowind is on sale too!

 

[Tomat]

Start as Malkavian, don't look back.

Do not listen to this man. The golden rule is you save Malkavian for the second playthrough.

 

[CambriaRising]

Would you recommend Bloodlines to some who loves RPG's but has no interest whatsoever in vampires?

Yes, Do it.

 

[CrocMother]

I just had this thought. With Steam, it is likely we will own these games for the rest of our lives.

THE REST OF OUR LIVES.

Endless entertainment, nostalgia and aesthetic pleasure FOREVER.
