What game are you wasting time on?

Mother Russia Bleeds

another short one. I didn't grow up playing many of the classic beat-em-ups, save for the Simpsons and Turtles In Time on the SNES. This holds up pretty well, save for annoying moments when your blows don't connect with the enemy. That aside, I found a few of the combat encounters extremely infuriating: flame bulldozer, and the final boss' second stage. It's kinda easy to get stunlocked and finished off with guns, but the difficulty is on the easy side. The pixel art is great, the combat is a bit shallow, no combos, no unlockables, music is hit or miss. Reminds me a bit of Shank (Klei's beat em up). A solid 2 to three hours of gameplay.


only real memorable track for me:

 

[Great Deceiver]

Playing nu Doom. It's a piece of shit with no level design whatsoever - just corridors followed by boxes with preset monster spawns, repeated ad nauseam. As expected. Something that wasn't mentioned in reviews or impressions (at least not that I have read or seen) is how absolutely shit the sound is in this game. There is zero punch to the weapons, everything sounds like tin and the soundtrack is a joke.

This travesty represents everything that's wrong with clueless hipsters wanting to 'revive' a franchise. I'd rather play 20+ year old WADs in ZDoom that I've played a thousand times before. It's actually depressing.

Got back into Crusader Kings 2 after hearing all the praise for the last dlc. Installed HIP because I'm having good memories of that one. Game has changed a lot since I tried it. Saw that the world is still just a steady incline to the top however as buildings and provinces only improve and never decline. Decided to import my old events that bring the possibility of ruination through warfare and sieges.

Amazed noone implemented that shit sooner. A 30 year war for instance should not just apply a few negative modifiers to a province. It should have a chance of a province losing buildings and even holdings.

Installed it yesterday and I fucking love it. I didn't have so much fun with a shooter since Rage. I really like what they have done here, it's a mock up of every hero out there that wants to save the world.Don't know about sound since I'm playing it at work and it's on mute
Try to incease the FOV on PC because the default is to low.

Planning on beating 'Splinter Cell - Blacklist.' Played before, got pretty far, got bored and moved on to something else. Still feel shitty for leaving a game unfinished though. It's a fine game anyway, no it ain't Chaos Theory, but what is?

Don't really mind the 'faster' stealth 'n shit, but it's funny how I feel LESS powerful here, with all the speed, fancy gadgets and the 'win' button 'n shit, than I did in Chaos Theory. Don't think I ever had such a fantastic feeling of POWER! in any other game. The slower pace of CT might have a lot to do with that, I'm guessing. I'd psych myself up, really soak in the feeling of superiority over the clowns around me, really soak in the feeling of total control over the situation at hand.

But, anyway, yeah, Blacklist is fine by me.

Scratch that, bought Fallout 4, LIKE A FAGGOT! So I'm playing that thing now. Mother forgive me.

Can you ghost a mission in Blacklist? Last two Splinter Cells I played were Double Agent which was still alright, though an obvious step back from Chaos Theory, and then Conviction which was absolute dogshit and might as well have been a game from another series. I felt like ghosting wasn't really emphasized in either of these like it was in the first three games.

Like I said, I haven't played through the full game, so I can't say for 100% sure. If by 'ghosting,' you mean 'get through the game without KILLING anyone,' think there's even an achievement for it. But if you mean, 'I don't even wanna touch anybody for the whole game,' that's probably not possible. You can do it in most missions, but eventually you'll have to at least choke somebody out.

Ah. Yeah by ghosting I mean you don't touch anyone ever unless the mission calls for it. So every situation has a stealth route whether it's by patience or gadgetry, that sort of thing.

Did not know this was a thing. Going on the wishlist now! Thanks.

edit: dude, I just bought the first Siralim. Its great! You are right, its crack.

For the asking price, the depth of content is crazy.

Brutal Legend.. $1.50 on GOG for 29 more hours. Possibly the most badass shit game ever.

I was thinking the same - more destruction is needed in Paradox

Nope. Servers are probably long gone, but I don't know, maybe that's just the Linux version. Doesn't look like a very good multiplayer game anyway, just something for the lulz.
