| UT2k4 is my favorite FPS ever. I won't talk about the disappointment that was UT3, but I hope they strive for everything that made UT2k4 great. I'm tired of modern "realistic" military shooters. I want something fast-paced, no unlocks, where movement is a skill. And I want it to be AAA and popular, so it has a large community to play niche mods with. |

| I hope 5 is different enough from 3/4 to make it worth the purchase. 4 just felt like an expansion to 3. Both 3/4 are good, but they should try to innovate the IP a bit more. |

I am glad to hear Grim Dawn is coming along nicely.. now the only question is should I keep playing my pre-release guy, or just shelve this game until it's fully done? Game Mechanics etc. are still in flux.
And ugh, forgot about the PoE new content. Might have to fire that up again also.
You get to keep all your characters and items on release anyway (unless an update changes skills, you may lose skillpoints). I'm enjoying trying different builds and saving up some rare items to play around with, knowing they're not going away and it's time not "wasted".
Will also be playing the new PoE leagues when they go live March 5th. |

I think anyone who says free to play games are automatically bad isn't really knowledgeable about games today. Are there bad, cash grab free to play games that are pay to win? Yes, of course. Are there good F2P games that are good games, don't fleece customers, and don't sell power? Yes, there are, and the number is growing.
To say a game is bad JUST because it's "free to play" is just being narrow-minded and ignoring many games as evidence to the contrary.
This isn't to say whatever F2P Bigpoint makes won't be crappy, however. |

| Great game. I'm also waiting for the new leagues to open. As for the loot being too RNG, that's true to a degree, but there are some really easy to use trade sites that allows you to buy/sell items with minimum hassle (like http://poe.xyz.is/ ). I always avoided them before, but after using them, you can get good gear for your particular build for reasonable prices (a few chaos). |

| I was a little late to the party with this game, only starting it a few months ago, but it's really great. Playing on a server running like 175 mods...sooo much stuff you can do, really fun. |

Do they have European servers? I am spoiled by BF4 and sub 30ms servers .p
Yep, so far they have NA, EU, and AUS. And I think they said dedicated servers will be coming eventually. |

If you can't get in the NA servers tonight, you can go to game options and change it to the Australia network, only a 2 minute wait there and the ping isn't that bad.
Played a few more matches. Very fun game. |

| Got to play one match of this before the matchmaking servers went kaput. Was pretty fun, and the gun customization was pretty slick. It's pretty fast-paced, too. |

| I really wanted to like LoG, but the real-time strafe combat kind of turned me off (that, and the focus on puzzles more than combat). I think it could have been more tactful/engaging combat if it had been turn-based, less puzzles, and more adventure. |

Anybody have anything to say about Risk of Rain? I love Binding of Isaac and FTL, this is supposed to be similar in the "rogue-like" fashion. Seems to have generally favorable reviews from what little I've seen.
its.. ok.
not particularly super fun imho, but its ok for a while.. im not a fan of timed games tho, and thats a main part of it
also, your ability to survive and thrive is generally predicated randomly by which loot drops show up.. also the gameplay is sorta meh, with not a lot of variety to it
its fairly difficult btw, even on easy mode .. and the only thing that saves between games is the unlocks
Thanks for the info, but I pulled the trigger and bought it...and really like it! While what you said is true, I like random gameplay (that can be overcome by pure skill), which so far I find to be the case. Good drops obviously help, but you can overcome bad ones with enough tactics/strategy (at least to level 3).
So, Risk of Rain is really good, if you like Contra + BoI type gameplay. It is hard, though. |
