What Games Are You Playing?

So how are you guys enjoying Dead Space 2?
Is it worth the $60 price, or wait till it comes down a bit?
I really liked the 1st one BTW :) So hoping its just as good or better.




Also, Two Worlds 2 ...

Anyone try this yet? Been hearing some good things overall, but a bit unsure.
The 1st Two Worlds was simply wretched IMHO, couldnt stand it.



Might grab a game today but not sure what to get. Been mostly saving for a new GPU, but might squeeze in a game. :)

TEST DRIVE UNLIMITED 2 BABY! Can't stop playing it...

I'm looking forward to try it, too.. Can't wait to be back to Playa d'en Bossa..
This is Ibiza, baby!!

Thanks :)

And yes, I really did enjoy the 1st one, so my I think Ill really like the 2nd.

I've been playing Rift in Beta. Will be getting that when it comes out.

Well, I picked up Two Worlds 2 for now. Gonna wait a couple weeks for Dead Space.

So far, superior to the first, which I thought was incredibly horrible.

Having a blast with it at this point, but Im only a couple hours into the game, and thus just now finishing the tutorials.



RIFT```

Played the last 2 Betas. At first it was a lot of fun but...
Character Creations and Armor/Weapon models were seriously lacking.
Hopefully they change this but, ATM, absolutly everyone looks the same aside from race. Not really a gameplay breaker, but something that bugged me.

The game ceratinly has alot of WAR influence, as well as some WOW and EQ2, with a bit of AION.

Rifts & invasions started becoming very boring very quick. Just a massive zerg of people killing mobs that seem to be no threat to the players.

Leveling and difficulty of the game was just far to easy. I managed all blue gear and lvl 32 in just 2 days, with little to no challenge.
Unless they change the level rate, a large majority will be at level cap before Headstart is finished and the game goes live.
This may change, lets hope so.

For those who want PVP, they recent update changes have ruined open world PVP. So the majority at this point will be in a instanced Warfield. Which also gets boring fast, and not really PVP IMHO. Being a PVP type player in MMOs, this is a Game Breaker for me.

Overall the game was fun. Ill admit that. And I did enjoy it for awhile.
But the sad thing is, it just gets repeatative after awhile.

At around Lvl 13-15, you have already got all your classes Souls. You've already done all the quests, Rifts, and Invasions.
Its now just a repeat all over again all the way to lvl cap, with just a different mob to kill.


Overall, its fun for awhile. But everything seems to be set up as a instant gratification type game. It takes little effort to really gear up, or level up.


I know there are many who completely disagree with my opionion of the game.
But, thats all it is, an opinion. To each thier own.

The game is also in Beta, so many of these complaints may very well change.
However, I think it is safe to say, that with a game in beta & just a couple weeks from going live, What you see is what you get.
At this point, a few bug fixes and overall stability tweaks is what they would be working on. The Game itself is set, or at least typically how it is.


I miss the old days of MMOS. Where class decisions mattered, and had a impact.
Where doing something stupid imposed a penalty.
Making friends/allies to adventure was a neccesity to survive, not an option.
Everything posed a challenge, and you had to work hard to earn what you had.
Nothing was given to you.


And BTW ...
Has anyone seen my Corpse?

- if you've never played DS1, I thoroughly recommend you give it a go..
- it's basic adventure stuff, but even after all these years it plays beautifully..
- old-fashioned hack 'n slash it may be, but it just flows along and it still looks great..

- it's still available, folks..
