What play button have you been clicking on lately?

Quoting: AppelsinDishonored DLC: The Knife of Dunwall, and Baldur's Gate II Enhanced Edition.

In my opinion, the greatest DLC ever made for one of the greatest games ever made. Playing as Daud is, incredibly, even more awesome than playing as Corvo! The time freeze on blink changes everything. Utterly fantastic game.

I've just completed Tomb Raider 2013, and working my way through Rise of the Tomb Raider now. Also been spending some time playing Blasphemous(proton) and I'm close to the final boss there.

Quoting: dudeHow are the difficulty/motivation curves in D:OS2 in your opinion? A friend and me where a little disappointed by the second half of the first one and are thus somewhat reluctant to have a go at the second title.

I also lost motivation in DO:S 1, so I didn't finish it.
The 2nd part is much better in my opinion, it's more polished and mature. Sure worth its price.

Just Cause 4 and Rage 2.

Rage 2 seems impossible to play... The game keeps on crashing every 15mins or so, no natter what I try in the launch options or in the graphic settings. Not really enjoyable, even tough I like the game.

turn off async compute from the config files.

You mean put "DisableAsyncCompute=1"?

Already tried it, same problem... I will give it another shot now that I'm on GamerOS... Who knows? Maybe...

Thanks anyway.

I have been getting into Paradox games lately, but man, I have never played anything as complex as these games. Crusader Kings II is weird and cool, Stellaris is more accessible, but Europa Universalis IV is just really hard to wrap my head around. The last thing I played otherwise was Total War: Warhammer.

SEGA Mega Drive & Genesis Classics - Steam

Never got into consoles so I pick this one up since most of my Steam friends had it. I've had a blast ending Comix Zone. Been playing Golden AXE 1 to 3 with friends online and home with my wife. We love beat-em-ups but never tried this series before. It's OK and I prefer part 3 more than the first 2 but it's all pretty fun. The Steam workshop mods have added other ROMS that I never messed with and those are fun also. I can see why people like these games so much. Growing up it was arcades and/or computers. Maybe I would have liked the Genesis back then.

Fantasy Strike - Steam

Put down Tekken for a bit, was running back to back into rage quitters and lag cheaters for a bit. Got back into Fantasy Strike just in time to join the recent tournament. I won 1 round but got eliminated my 2nd time at the bat. Love this game a lot. I learned so much playing with these other players and friended many and been back and forth in friend matches since. My main is Grave and Rook.

Tekken 6 - PPSSPP

Went back to Tekken 6 to explore more of the character, lores and difference btw 6 and 7. Going to see this weekend if I can get the online working via of the PPSSPP servers to play against friends. My main is Miguel and Marduk.

DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE 2 - Stadia

I used the $10 credit that Stadia gave all users and both this game a few days ago when it was on sale for $10. I'm not into MMOs and this game is largely empty but I'm totally OK with that for me. I'm not that much of a DBZ fan but I did watch DB growing up. So this game has me checking out the older shows with the family. Two other friends picked it up as well and we plan to play together on Saturday night either this week or the next. In the mean time I'm practicing combat at the school and it's crazy fun.

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night - Steam

I tried this one and was feeling it til it got to point where I had to find save rooms in order to save. I had to refund this one. Looks good but I'm an all or nothing type of gamer when it comes to saves. Either I can't (Rouge-like/Start back from the beginning or save point you auto get) or I can (save state anywhere and come back later) when it comes to SP games.

Got Torchlight II running on Manjaro and got lost in the mines with my level 54 Embermage for 45 minutes. God, I love that game.

I have finally finished The Talos Principle. By the time I finished it, I had pretty much had my fill of it. Don't get me wrong; some of the puzzles are really great, but others had gotten kind of old.

Now I just have to finish Bioshock Infinite, and I can move on to other games.

Except, of course for all the other things I have to do, which will take much of my time. I'm obligated to practice and record a part on the ocarina for a virtual music performance that will be mixed recordings of each member of our group alone since we can't meet together right now (I'm the only ocarina player; the others use more conventional instruments). Getting the piece right and then a properly timed recording will be fun since I've never done that kind of recording. I guess I should be thankful since I only have to learn one or two pieces of music instead of a dozen like usual.
