Playing Rimworld on PC and I am a bit addicted. It's an indie... Colony builder, I suppose? The emergent gameplay is amazing though. I had a little colony of just 4 people, but it was all going great, between them all the major tasks were covered and I was self-sufficient. But then three refugees turned up and asked if they could stay for 30 days and they'd work for room & board so I said yes... After about 10 days they sprung their trap! Pulled guns they had stashed and tried to take over the colony! I managed to kill two and capture one (he's now locked up in a cell half dead but I want to indoctrinate him because he has good skills), but my doctor is badly injured now and... There's no other colonist with decent med training so I don't know what's going to happen to her

. The guy who does all the cooking is also injured bad and we're out of prepped food, surviving on raw potatoes. AND we're in the middle of a week long lightning storm.

It's so dramatic

AND one of them killed the pet hare

. So now poor bunny is in a freezer incase we run out of taters

We got raided again and my guy who is (supposedly) good at shooting was firing at a raider... And one of my other guys ran in from out of nowhere with a knife, and was shot in the leg by friendly fire. Now he has sepsis and we're out of proper modern medkits so my doc is trying to help him with natural medicine we grew in the garden

. It's touch and go...

Honestly this game looks so simple (top down 2d strategy) but it has a ridiculous amount of depth

. I also had a guy have a nervous breakdown because he's in withdrawals from drugs (I'm trying to get him clean) and another colonist turned down his advances and he just lost it and wrecked the pool table

. And then the next day, he had the cheek to have a -5 on his mood modifiers because the Rec room is "lacking"! U wot mate?? Everyone loved it when it had a pool table!

Just got Vice City off PSN and the nostalgia is insane. My early teenage years playing this - great times!

Amen!

Was a toss up between it and San Andreas but SA seemed fresher in my mind so had to go with VC. Love the 80’s vibe.

Such a great game LaLa my favourite GTA for the PS2 games. Everything about it was just brilliant it brings back such great memories.

Last night a DJ saved my life from a broken heart......

I bought the trilogy recently on PSN and VC was the first one I played too, as others have said mostly just to hear the soundtrack again

only downside is no Billie Jean in the game anymore.

Currently playing Assassin's Creed Odyssey and it's blowing my mind, I absolutely love it. Can't believe I slept on this series for so long.

Already ordered Origins for when I'm for the most part finished with Odyssey. Then sometime in the future I'll be sure to get Valhalla!

Nicky91 · 24-12-2020, 04:46 PM

currently started over with Telltale GoT (shame its second season plans had been cancelled thx to that mess over at Telltale)

i very much like playing this, also the ''you might think one thing, but you must say another'' got me hooked, i mean thx to knowing the series, i know you need to lie sometimes not to get someone angry or against you

Novo · 03-01-2021, 10:23 PM

Going for the Plat on FFX and FFX-2, ****ing lightning dodge trophy will probably do me in though,

already done FF7, FF8, and FF15 plats and nothing is anything as challenging as the lightning dodge trophy on there

Novo · 03-01-2021, 10:25 PM

the ff9 skipping one is a nightmare as well actually along with the speed run trophy

Lee. · 03-01-2021, 10:38 PM

Just starting Breath of the Wild.. I started it before and got really into it but then **** happened and I lost interest , so I’ve started afresh.

No Encounters booster makes the FFIX speedrun trophy a joke to get. It's essentially the Excalibur II trophy - which was possible (but difficult) to get on original PSX with no boosters, so with encounters off you can do it in 3/4 that time or less no problem. The key is quick bursts of grinding levels in good grinding areas and skipping ALL other random battles.

what about the 1000 jumps skipping one though, think my record is barely 200

Black Dagger · 03-01-2021, 11:35 PM

Sackboy.

I like me a platformed that challenges me x

I could never do it

. Even as a teenager with much better reactions than now.

I never had an issue with the FFX lightning strikes, though. The timing window is fairly forgiving IIRC - the challenge really is in not losing concentration.
