With my old PS4 it probably was just age/not cleaning it enough but I got a pro not that long ago and it sounds like it's going to explode with certain games (like Dreams which I was trying the demo of last night)

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


The original PS4 Pro is just extremely loud for no reason. I ripped it open after playing God of War thinking there must be a lot of dust inside but there was almost nothing.

-mario 35 (25 wins)

Hey folks i'm looking for a good "nerd" game to play, prefeblyy on PC.

What I mean is a game like Civ or Solaris, something like that if it makes sense. Games i've liked in the past that are similar:

Stellaris
Civ 4-6
Warlock
i love roller coaster tycoon games

i'd be down for one of those CRPGS also if theres a good one. I liked Pillars of Eternity 1. maybe that new baulders gate 3 game?

thanks all.

Yup, the token white guy of the team. What, you thought they were going to have Marcus show up? Hahahahahahaha

There’s also a female Assassin so everyone can shut up about AssCreed in modern day.

Everyone quoted was like "this is taken out of context, its as hot as PS4 Pro" and the only account tweeting their system overheated turned out to be hacked and the owner on record saying its not overheating so I think it might be we have no loving clue

Maybe a bit of exaggeration, but I was going in expecting Act 1 to be mostly complete, but there are still tons of issues with for example cutscene animations and stuff that makes it seem rushed, even for an Early Access release

Now you know how I don't like to use the sit-down gun, but this morning we just don't have time for mucking about.

Yakuza 0 was okay, but the combat got too bad for the story to carry so I put it down and never picked it back up. Haven't tried any of the others, since 0 was supposed to be the best.

I'll make an effort post tomorrow, but you should check out this Kickstarter and you should back this Kickstarter.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cartographersheroes/cartographers-heroes-3-map-pack-expansions

tl;dr the original game has basically become both mine and my various gaming groups favourite board games to bring to the table.
The sequel above adds a bunch of really cool poo poo to improve an already amazing game.

Straight up an Infinitum Good Board Game Guarantee that you will not regret backing this.

I've never kickstarted anything in my life but I just threw down at the $50 level for this. Cartographers rules.

For the rest of the year I'm playing:

Resident Evil 2
MGS5
Yakuza 0
The new Yakuza when that comes out
Persona 5 (I started this is January 2019 and i'm still only 55 hours in)

And I'm always going to be playing Caves of Qud.

If the combat in Yakuza games werent so dire itd be my favorite series of all time.

I preordered Yakuza 7 because "mediocre dragon quest" is a significant enough improvement Im confident Ill love it.

I mean I don't think any version of D&D (besides perhaps 4e) would make a particularly good videogame, which is why I'm glad most modern CRPGs just make up their own systems designed to be videogames from the ground up

Like, the narrative part doesn't really matter but there's gonna be a ton of combat in the game and D&D combat isn't great

4E would have made a lovely tactics game (straight up FFT grid based style). The fact that it never got a game probably hurt its popularity a lot compared to what it could have been because it would have helped a lot for getting people interested in the edition.

Atari (I think it was Atari) were either idiots, monsters, or both for just sitting on the rights and doing nothing for the entire run of 4E.

It's a pretty good game as long as you know and expect that it's actually a stealth spiritual sequel to Sacrifice rather than just the somewhat open world action action game it initially appears to be.

It's fun but it suffers heavily from the standard early '00s and Schafer game design problems. Mainly they completely mismanaged time and money and ended up cutting the majority of the back half of the game to get the game out before they ran out of money.
