is the DLC for this any good? I think the base game was the best total war, and they have only gone downhill since

Atilla has a really cool setting but it's hard to play and from what I see when I play like the Romans, is that the Goths and Huns never do anything interesting so nothing cool happens.

It is now Tuesday but my Steam library tells me that I played Invisible Inc on Friday night which I have no reason to disbelieve and I assume I enjoyed it due to the lack of negative emotions associated with this thought

On second thought I remember being disappointed that the random level generation nutsacked me again but isn't facing with vim and vigor a situation you have no chance of winning a thrilling experience?

I got a character to Cruel difficulty in the new Path of Exile league. Act 4 is freaking cool and it feels a bit shorter than other acts, but it's got a lot of cool bosses. The final boss is more fun of a fight than Dominus ever was. Im gonna play more of this game tonight.

i liked diablo 3 after reaper of souls, but before they started treadmilling the game with super legendaries. would i like path of exile?

I never played Diablo 3, and I never even got further than act 2 in Diablo 2. IDK. There's a lot of freedom in path of exile... All classes do is determine where u start in the massive skill tree, and your base stats. And your model ofc. But you can skill anything, obviously some stuff is closer and more feasible than other stuff. The problem with this is that respec points are few and far inbetween so you'll probably end up redoing Normal Difficulty a bunch while you figure it out.

My chief complaint with the game is that skill gems are RNG based except for the occasional quest reward, but I think they buffed the drop rate a bunch because I seem to be getting one per map.

Grand Ages: Medieval? If so, how was it? I preordered that one too because I really loved Grand Ages: Rome, and the gameplay still looked pretty good once I realized that Medieval was an entirely different game in an entirely different genre by an entirely different dev team than Rome (-_-), but I won't have a chance to game until like Thursday and the user reviews were at like 44% positive last time I checked :whitewater:

Unless you're talking about a different strategy game that came out yesterday.

Yeah. From what I've played it seems decent but apparently the combat is horrible according to Games but I havent gotten into that part yet.

I'm going to try the new Civilization: Beyond Earth expansion that came out today, and then maybe play Dragon Ball Xenoverse or The Witcher 3 again--the rest of my library has been neglected since MGS V came out

I thought vanilla BE was insane garbage, but with the expansion it's pretty good and I'm enjoying it.

Last night I finally finished up Telltale's Game of Thrones up to Episode 5 since the last one is supposed to come out in a couple weeks. Still not sure how I feel about the game, the writing is good and the art style is pretty nice but sometimes I wish I was just reading a book. Maybe the final episode will bring it all together nicely.

I think those games look like poo poo but I enjoy Life Is Strange so maybe I'm a hypocrite.

I've been trying to beat the first level of Examina and its really hard. I actually did beat it tonight but I took a lot of damage so I died really early in level 2, and I missed a lot of loot.

I liked it too, although I chose the Chloe lives ends because I thought it would be more interesting and it definitely wasn't. Really depressing end for such a sweet game. I got flashbacks to the feels of watching Donnie Darko in high school. Overall really good use of dead whales to indicate shits hosed and this games got one of the best coziest original soundtracks I've ever heard.

I chose the other ending and I never watched Donnie Darko but I enjoyed everything about the game.

How good is act 4?

I'm playing Isaac/Dragon Quest VI

It has less areas total than the other acts I think, but just about every boss fight has custom moves and stuff, and there's one in every single area, on top of the normal unique mob. The final boss fight is hard but more fun than Dominus IMO. There's also a bunch of other stuff added or changed besides the act 4 content in the 2.0 update so there's a lot of cool new stuff in general. New league starts on Monday

You don't need them. There's a summon right before the fog gate. Also that boss is one of those where you can be overleveled when you first encounter them.
