Path of Exile

Cant say I've spent a huge amount of time with Terraria myself.

I went through it once, and then..... for whatever reason the replay value just vanished.

Though, part of it at least was the game's combat and power progression.... at some point the combat stops being about "dodge these things, hit this guy" and becomes more about "fly around and click over and over, dont worry much about getting hit or where you aim, you're basically a god now anyway". The bosses in particular, didnt like them, those fights were usually the most mindless.

Not that vanilla Minecraft is much better about it.... put on a full set of iron armor, and you're nearly invincible. Put on diamond armor, and you ARE invincible. And the bosses in that one are pretty stupid as well.


Though I think the one major thing that bugged me with Terraria was that the digging aspect was MUCH too slow, particularly considering how the world is made up of lots and LOTS of really tiny blocks. If Starbound still had that issue, honestly I probably wouldnt be playing it, no matter how good the rest of it is, since I'm not the patient sort. Fortunately though they did away with that issue with that game, as even the weakest picks dig out a 3x3 area instead of one tiny block at a time. Though, for all I know, maybe they fixed that somehow in Terraria, but from videos I've seen of the game lately, that is not the case.

Ok.. I have a few and I tend to rotate, depending on time - mood

Combat arms - a 'free' FPS as in you play better with the stuff you buy
Civ5
Skyrim - and time permitting dabble in the Creation kit
Path of Exile - a real free game as in no advantage to what you buy
also a beta player of EndWar <-- future online game bit similar to Command and Conquer, but better.

Back on the New Vegas, doing Honest Hearts

Grinding Battle Trophies in Star Ocean TLH. I already completed Arumat. Now it is time for everyone else.

Path of Exile - Currently at the hardest difficulty. Should be able to finish the campaign for a third time soon
Pilotwings 64 - Speedrun attempts
WazHack - I keep dieing

Pokemon White 2 and Lightning Returns

Once they arrive from Gamefly I'll be playing Deadpool and ( hopefully, as the first copy they sent was unreadable ) Sonic Lost World.

super mario galaxy 2. it is good fun.

Call of Cthulhu: The Wasted Land.

Got it for £4. Only now two days in does the game start throwing fits X3

I'm kind of in-between games right now...trying to find one to stick with, starting to lean towards getting back into Dragon Quest IX.

I've beat it multiplayer about 1.5 times, but never got very far solo...and I do mean solo @_@ Trying to see how far I can get without any other party members. In Bloomingdale right now.

in just 1 more week I'll be all about Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes!

Otherwise: beat Deadpool ( and promptly sent it back to Gamefly...really frustrating game ) and Fossil Fighters: Champions; currently trying to focus on Pokemon White 2 and Lightning Returns with a little Diablo III for fun ( still on my 1st playthrough as a demon hunter, currently in Act III )

I've been hopping between Rogue Legacy and DayZ recently. Rogue Legacy is addictive and fairly fun, but it's quite frustrating and rough around the edges in terms of the design of the game as an action platformer (the bullet hell elements are silly in my opinion, I never asked for I Want To Be The Boshy: Rogue Legacy Edition), while DayZ is "boring", but at the same time, can be very tense and really gets your heart pumping sometimes. The time that the game is boring really is just time where you're getting more and more emotionally invested into your current character. However, the game is quite buggy and some of the bugs are incredibly frustrating, especially the bugs that cause you to lose your character or your items. I could care less about the "quirks" of the game as it is currently that completely break the immersion for some people, but no bug better touch my precious loot! As rough around the edges DayZ may seem, though, it's very much an alpha and I do not doubt that even the major problems in the current state of the game are beyond fixing.

I've been going back and forth between Thief and South Park: The Stick of Truth. I'm thoroughly enjoying both games. I'm thinking about picking up Dark Souls II next.
