What games are you playing currently?

Finally played through Life is Strange. Meh, too girly and teen drama-y for my tastes. Didn't even shed a single tear at the ending, and I will freely admit to shedding big manly tears every time I finish Season 1 of Telltale's The Walking Dead. :lol:
 
I like to play computer games in my free time, especially the slot games. I really enjoy the procces. It' s one of the best. It's easy to win something with a little bit of money. I would recommend you to try this amazing website which I'am using to play onlinev casini games.
 
Man, my gaming has been strange lately, cleaning up a lot of odds and ends I've missed from not playing much for a while.

So my recent:
Pigsy's Perfect 10 DLC for Enslaved
Quick and fun, interesting mix of platformer and sniper. Made me contemplate playing through Enslaved again.

Wolfenstein The Old Blood

Standalone DLC for the modern Wolfenstein; OK but you can tell it's a half-hearted effort.

Need for Speed: The Run
Tough (for me anyway) arcade type racer, campaign is worth picking up for cheap. Personally I liked the lack of customization options, just pick a car and go. It's rough around the edges but what it gets right it does well. Kind of plays like the classic Burnout games.

Started to play Pokemon Platinum. Working on soft resetting for a shiny Turtwig. Going to play some Crystal version in awhile.
 
I'm about 2 hours into Octopath Traveler, and its very good so far. I'm a big fan of the turn based SNES era JRPGs, and this is like that but updated with some modern mechanics to make certain things less of a chore. I'm going around getting all the companions (my main/starter character is Primrose, since I heard her story was on eof the best) and I'm about ready to get the merchant.

The game really looks nice, although the lighting can be a bit weird at times, and the music is very good. The combat is also very fun, assuming you like turn based JRPGS.
 
Man, Fallout 4 is so buggy. I've never encountered such a buggy game. Twice so far, I've encountered game-breaking bugs, one and where thankfully I was able to fix via mods, and the other I'm in the process of playing through to see if it will fix itself, but they both involve Paladin Danse (Fire Support, and Call to Arms). With Fire Support, I had to download a script mod that allowed me to advance the quest as he'd be bugged out and not acknowledging that the zombies were taken care of. In Call to Arms, I'm supposed to follow him to a building where a mission takes place. I get there and then he runs back to the police station like a scaredy cat. Apparently it's OK if I continue to do it on my own. And these are two big well-known bugs. Apparently the first one happens because I didn't immediately go to the mission area and help them out against the ghouls when I heard the sound of guns when I approached and instead explored the area. Brilliant. Make an open-world game where you can explore everything but breaks if you don't do anything as intended.
 
Finished yet another playthrough of Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines tonight. Seems like I replay it once a year now. Last year I did Malkavian (so much fun!) and this time I finally did Ventrue. was always put off by the ugliness of the default female Ventrue face, but I found a mod to make them more attractive. Dominate was nice to get some ideal outcomes in quests (for example to avoid killing Milligan for Pisha) but most of the time is redundant if you have good persuasion. Fortitude is basically god mode by the end. I did first try a Tremere, but not getting full Dominate options in dialogue was a little frustrating, and wasn't a big fan of the Thaumaturgy (was never big on mages in RPG's in general.)

Can't bring myself to play a Nosferatu, since I like playing social characters in RPG's so much, but I am watching a pretty entertaining Nosferatu Let's Play on YouTube currently, just to see that all the differences are. I'm pretty surprised they can still navigate the streets pretty easily and by no means have to take the sewers everywhere. I do really love the Obfuscate power, but hey, Malkavians can use it and still be a social character at the same time, and Dementation is often a good substitute Domination in dialogue. The inspection bonus is a convenient quality of life perk for ensuring you don't miss anything as well. Probably my favorite clan I've played so far.
 
Octopath Traveler and Crash Bandicoot. I'm actually playing Crash on the PC though due to the better graphics and higher framerate.
 
I've been stuck on the fight with the werewolf in the side quest Wild at Heart in Witcher 3 for a couple weeks now. I haven't been playing as much lately since I've been getting a lot early days at work, so it's not quite as bad as it sounds. It's driving me crazy, every time I get close to beating him he runs off and heals, and since I'm usually almost dead at that point he kills me long before I get a chance to do any more significant damage.
 
^ If you're ever having trouble with a particular monster in the game, check its bestiary entry and try using the appropriate signs/oils/bombs it's vulnerable to. No sense being stingy with those, as they replenish whenever you rest. Werewolves are vulnerable to moon dust, devil's puffball, cursed oil, and igni. I believe igni in particular should halt or at least slow down its health regeneration during that phase. That quest can be resolved non-violently as well. ;)
 
Yeah, Igni worked pretty well, but he was still healing faster than I could hurt him.
I gave up for now, and decided to move on. Once I've leveled up a couple more times I'll go back and give it another go.
 
Just tried out Watch_Dogs today... it's pretty challenging. Working on playing some Legacy of Kain right now though. Played some Plants Vs. Zombies and some other games earlier.
 
Since my last post, I finished the Titanfall 2 campaign.
I then played:
Assassin's Creed Chronicles: India
The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit
Assassin's Creed Chronicles: Russia

Not sure what I'm going to play next, probably either Assassin's Creed: Unity or Life is Strange: Before the Storm.
 
Batman (Telltale Series) on PS4 - looks pretty great to me so far, but I'm not a Batman...ionado?

Also, checked out the No Man's Sky Next update for a bit, also on PS4.
 
I was hoping to work on more Witcher 3, but I screwed up one of my wrists at work last weekend and haven't bee able to hold a control with both hands since then.
