Re: What game are you playing now?

I hope you'll continue with M&MIII . I never completed that one, but I did get quite far (and plan to complete it perhaps in 2024). I generally don't have time during the week to play, but I spent a couple of short sessions with character creation this week. Apparently, there is only ONE male human …

Septerra Core This is one I never played back in the day, though I recall seeing it in ads and on store shelves. I remember at the time dismissing it as some kind of fake Japanese RPG, perhaps some kind of crass attempt to sell a game to the FF7 fans, so I never really gave it the time of day. Well …

Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession It took me 39 hours, and it was a better game then I expected. I'd rate it 75/100. My main issue with the game was the real-time combat, but they actually implemented it well with good spell options to help mitigate frantic clicking. Also, there were a couple nice …

Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession I'm getting close to the end, with almost 37 hours of gameplay into it so far. I'm about to head to the Undead Forest, which is apparently the second to last map of the game. Currently finishing up in the Old Church, Lower Level 2, and I came across some coded …

I don't know why, but I've always had a bias against Deus Ex, even though I loved SS2. I own it and have played the first 15 minutes of the game several times. I think it probably has something to do with the Neo-esc protagonist's trenchcoat and shades even though he's running around at night. It …

Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession Interesting. Most of these old classics have cluebooks or websites that document the best weapons and armor. Not this game. I have two swords that are very close in damage. I'm trying to determine which one is best. Ancient Elven Sword +2: Damage: 2-9/2-13: Weight 3 …

Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession I'm exploring Castle Ravenloft about 28 hours into my playthrough. Combat has been challenging so far, but not brutal...until now. I opened a room that unleashed a pair of Zombie Golems on me. It seemed they'd kill my entire party in only a couple of hits and even …

Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession I'm about to finish the Elven Warrior's Crypt quest. These levels are huge and pretty fun to explore. The quicksave is a godsend, just be careful when restoring that you don't actually quicksave again! I came close a couple of times, which would've been disastrous and …

Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession I just spent a LOT of time looking for a special scroll that I needed for a sidequest. It was supposed to be in Lower Level 1 of The Old Church, along with two other scrolls that I did find. I had completely cleared this level (opened all doors, killed all monsters) …

Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession I finally completed the Caverns West of Barovia. It was a huge map and actually pretty fun to explore. In the end, I got the Church Vestibule Key, which I'll use at my next stop. I had two NPCs join my party of two for the Caverns: Vladislav and Irmgarde. Both …

Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession I'm now in the Lesser Catacombs Beneath Barovia, working on the Paladin Quest. Roughly 8 hours of gameplay. Graphics: Reminds me a lot of Shadowcaster or Ultima Underworld. With the exception not being able to look up or down (or float/fly), the graphics are very …

Started BioShock 2 . It's very similar to the first game, except that you now play as one of those big daddy creatures. Due to that, your movement feels more sluggish, and your lumbering footsteps produce loud sounds whenever you walk. I'm not a fan of either. Thankfully, you can at least turn off …

Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession I'm about 3.5 hours in. Playing on a PCPartner 486/66 that was donated to me for the cost of shipping by @liqmat. Using an ISA ET4000AX (Diamond SpeedSTAR), the performance has been very good. Using a DreamBlaster X2 for GM music, which is top notch. I'm a huge RPG …

Metro Exodus I just finished Metro Exodus with the "good" ending. Took me 26.5 hours. It was easily the best game of the trilogy with a very satisfying ending. I like how the game takes you out of the underground tunnels that were the main setting of the first two games and gives you lots of …

Oh, the city of Rapture made no scientific sense, agreed. The buildings looked very similar or identical to how real-life land-based buildings look, when instead Rapture would be domed/hemispherical to counter the immense pressure of the weight of the ocean permanently pressing upon the buildings, …

My weird association of winter weather and DOS RPGs got off to a start this morning. After a brutal summer, this was the first morning since the end of last winter that the temperatures dipped into the 30s. The heater kicked on for the first time and I put a sweat jacket on and brewed a cup of …

I'll be curious to hear your opinion on the first one (the only one I've played so far) and then on the rest of them as well. Well, I'm only a couple of hours in right now, but BioShock does seem quite interesting. I like the retro aesthetic. It reminds me of Fallout, especially the artwork on the …
