Dishonored is a legit Good Game. I thought it looked pretty stupid when it first came out (hurr durr steampunk and magic), but I wound up playing through it recently and it's a loving blast. Deffo worth playing and all of the extra stuffs.

its also good steampunk instead of weirdos gluing gears on all their clothing.

Yeah, that was the cool part. It got as close to steampunk as possible without jumping into 'Gears on everything' poo poo.

New Call Of Duty is getting a lot of praise for a really excellent campaign. Amazon Prime members can get the game with the modern warfare remaster for adecent deal. I paid 67 bucks for a copy with free same day shipping.

Blizzard is adding a remake of Diablo I to Diablo III, i guess? :shrug:

quote:

Blizzard will release a remake of Diablo inside of Diablo III as part of an upcoming “20th anniversary” patch, the company said today. It’ll include a 16-level dungeon and the four main bosses from the first Diablo.

The patch, The Darkening of Tristam, will be free to Reaper of Souls owners on both PC and console.

Haven't touched the IW campaign yet. Titanfall 2's campaign is a wonderful mishmash of bizarro Portal, Prince Of Persia: Sands Of Time, Call Of Duty, and Mechwarrior.

Is dishonored 1 worth playing? I use this thread exclusively for game recommendations

Also, I bought the total war pack on sale a few weeks back, which is the best TW game?

I've played all the TW games pretty extensively except shogun and got the most enjoyment out of Napoleon followed by Rome 2. I've been playing a lot of the new warhammer one and it's dope so that will probably top Napoleon and Rome for me soon. I'd suggest starting with whatever historical period (or warhams) is most appealing to you and letting it rip.

Exactly. What brought it up was we went to see Dr. Strange this morning (good movie, Tilda Swinden is extremely my platonic poo poo) and there was he new Rogue One trailer with like a 2 second X-Wing clip and the engine noise made me nostalgic as gently caress.

To be honest, if you don't get at least a little chub or ever so slightly wet when you hear the phrase "Lock S-foils in attack position" you're probably not a functional human being or the alien equivalent thereof.

quote:

The most and only important part of this game is talking poo poo, and talking poo poo with the focus, cunning, and determination of a fox hunted by dogs. Squad organization and the team mechanic are false constructions meant to distract you from the One True Purpose of Battlefield: Grinding profanities out of your keyboard like a coke-crazed pole cowboy until gameplay stops and the chat window convulses with loathing. Every second you spend playing this game is a second you've lost on puking vitriol over its community. The only acceptable justification for your participation in a round is killing bad guys; every moment somebody is dead is another moment they're forced to pay attention to your bullshit. For this reason you should never revive teammates.

Celebrate every kill by reminding your victim that they could've spent this time in the company of a loved one. Run into a corner and prone first so they can tell that you're typing. Subtly imply that they play video games so much because they secretly hate themselves and yearn to escape from their lives. If they kill you back, state this explicitly, then assert that they invest themselves into children's games because they crave ego-death and are too cowardly to pursue a fulfilling sexual experience or suicide. Remind them that KDR is irrelevant to the actual structure of the game, and the developers only instituted tracking of it in obeisance to our crude animal fear of domination. If your KDR is higher, add that you justify this fear, and that in a primal setting you would collapse their brainpan with your teeth. Pause briefly to note that fear of defilement after death is nothing more than a shadow cast on the wall of the human psyche by the blinding, hideously bright knowledge of our own mortal inconsequentiality, before continuing to describe in detail the crude zoomorphic rituals you would subject your opponent's corpse to in a pre-agricultural setting.

Take note when you earn a nemesis ribbon and write beautiful erotica detailing the carnal adventures you imagine sharing with your victim. Anoint yourself a priest in a Dionysian mystery cult and then loudly announce your intention to gay marry jets by ramming them. Prepare elaborate epitaphs for snipers before you knife them; afterwards, carry on long simulated conversations with them about how stupid they are, using quotation marks to indicate their responses. Post-script all such conversations with "Wait, how am I talking if I'm loving dead?" If you successfully run somebody over with a MAV, spend a minute making robot sounds and questioning whether or not sufficiently advanced computers have souls. Ask your victims if they will dream while you make exaggerated tea-bagging motions over their corpse by flying up and down.

Erratically and interchangeably quote Mussolini and Eugene V. Debs. Turn on thermal optics in the Viper and then splice footage of you base-camping Wake into an Iraq Mudvayne war crime montage. Put that on YouTube and whistleblow it to Julian Assange's gmail account. Cold read the room until you find out the name of somebody's dead grandmother, then channel her spirit through your keyboard to mock their KDR and make debased sexual claims about their ancestry. Put an IRNV on your gun and spend the whole round making clicking noises and repeating things other people say while alternating capslock. Unironically solicit contributions for Jon Huntsman's presidential campaign. Do literally anything without irony.

Strip naked on nights of the full moon and scream your hatred for mankind into the sky. This will have no direct effect on Battlefield players, but the poisonous qi you release into the universe will bring nightmares to children and kill flowers half a world away, lessening the joy of others by a commensurate but ultimately exponential amount. Kidnap Korean War veterans and subject them to hour-long knife kill montages until they have nervous breakdowns. Tell them that this is the face of modern war. Deliberately mislead children into believing unsustainable things. Provoke the manager of the Battlefield Twitter feed into an argument about electoral fraud in modern Russia, then question the morality of releasing a game depicting non-nuclear industrial warfare between two superpowers as entertainment. Tell him that you no longer enjoy Bad Company 3 and offer to mail him a copy of ArmA.

Trigger another fight about Stinger utility in-game.
