What VIDEO GAME(s) have you been playing?

Having never seen that, I had to turn it off before the 1 minute mark.

Of course, I've never played an MMO, so maybe that's why?

I’ve never played one either. That clip cracks me up because of the guy totally raging and I always wonder why people choose to have a new boss in a non-job. To this day I don’t know what DKP is.

I've played a bit of more of State of Decay 2 now. It is mostly good. If you liked the original, then you get more here. The bugs are annoying, and they've released at least 1 bug patch so far.

My first long play ended when my character got stuck in the engine compartment of a vehicle.

It has been a while since I played the first game, but it feels like the base-management part of the game has been emphasized a whole lot more. Harder to balance positive/negatives for morale.

It feels like there is very little interface help. Like the first time I tried to destroy a 'plague' heart I didn't realize that the 'pockets' in your inventory are no different from any other inventory slot. You just get them whether you have a backpack or not. I kept trying to move explosives to the pockets, and you cannot. So rather than switch to explosives via-quick select and throw them like you are supposed to, I was lining up my shot, opening my inventory and pressing 'use' to get the throw animation, which sometimes hit and sometimes did not.

People cannot freaking close gates in the base. so random zombies keep coming in. I think there's been a decent sized zombie attack every night, which is annoying that it is regular like that. I also cannot figure out how to just hunker down in your home until daylight comes.

I don't remember fuel being such a big issue in the first game. Luckily you can draw fuel cans out of your base storage pretty easily...something else I either missed or the game didn't tell me. I played the first game almost entirely with 1 character. This one feels like it forces you to swap characters a whole lot more.


But the core of the game is still the same. go out, scavenge for supplies. help survivors. Missions.
I haven't tried co-op, but one of these weekends i'll actually be home and be able to try. So far I'm having fun with it. I think MSRP is 29.99, and that feels right. It is not a AAA title, but at 30 bucks it is priced right. Still glad I jumped on the cheapo game pass to try it.


ooo...wasteland 2 is on gold gamepass, gotta jump on to another single player RPG and not finish it!

DKP = Dragon Kill Points. It's like a currency managed outside of the game within a big guild. You do these many things for the guild, usually running big raids, to build up points and then spend them to claim the loot that drops for your character. Note: Hazy memory of that being correct, I was never in a big guild and didn't play many MMOs.

You guys have to play cultist simulator on pc. It is *so* good if you play CCGs or LCGs. It's like the computerized version of every adventure card game, but using the computer not to do math but instead to obscure rules and systems for things that should be obscure---the occult.

LJ: re State of Decay

Drive cars into the gates. Block them completely. That’s the only way to stop that.

This game likes to dogpile on you. At one point I got attacked by a snow leopard. I killed it and was skinning it when I was immediately attacked by an eagle.

Yea, the animals are too aggressive in this game.

Also disliked the times whenever the game yanked me out of the open world.

Hey Pete you havent given yout impression on FC3 apart from fucking the lady!

I think he also stated that the ladies in that game are too sexually aggressive

Yeah, that was Pete. I had no problem with FarCry 3, other than


As for FC4, I have barely touched it lately. I'm surprised how quickly I started to fall off of it. I keep thinking I should re-install Doom 2016. I could see me beating that game again.

NuDoom is good Doom.
Even the PSVFR Doom is pretty good. Even better actually.
