What games are you playing currently?

I'm really enjoying it! I played through the new DLC, Elsweyr, in a weekend. It was so much fun--you can fight dragons throughout the new zone, they land in different places and it's basically a world boss.

I've been playing ESO almost since it came out--if you have questions, let me know!
 
Beyond Two Souls seems to get mixed reviews. Anyone played it, and people seem to hate David Gage.

The game looks kind of interesting so not sure if I should bite the bullet and buy it or not.
 
Recently finished Assassin's Creed 3. It was actually pretty fun. The main character (of the past sections), Connor, was bland but I enjoyed the game and story overall. The setting was great, although I could have used a bit more historical figure interaction (I never even met Ben franklin again after the opening bit). I didn't really care either way for the present day stuff, but it didn't bug me, at least. Overall this isn't as good as the other AC game I've beat (Syndicate, which I really, really liked) but its solid.
 
Do VFD (vacuum fluorescent display) games count? I played Puck Monster the other night.


God I loved the 80s and handheld games.
 
Installed and am playing Borderlands 2 again to play the new free DLC. Only sad part is my hdd died last year and I lost my high level siren so I'm having to use a cheaty auto-level 30.

I've never understood the poor reaction AC3, I really enjoyed it when I played it.
Did any of you guys like AC:Unity? I had originally skipped that one because of the bad reaction, but this reminded me that AC3 got a similar reaction, and I really enjoyed it.

I liked AC3 more than most people (I liked the Haytham Kenway character), and I really loved Black Flag. Having said that, I absolutely HATED Unity. I got it right at launch along with my PS4, and I played a bit then quit. It was buggy as hell. They were trying to sell keys to certain chests through microtransactions. Left a very sour taste in my mouth. Later on, I heard they fixed all these things. So, I tried it again. Despite having an interesting setting and amazing graphics, the game is just bland and not fun. It almost stopped me from getting the far, FAR superior Syndicate at launch, but I'm glad I picked it up :)

I thought AC3 was ok. I also liked Haytham, but his song was boring as hell. I absolutely loved Black Flag, I had so much fun playing that game. And yeah, Unity was a mess and I really enjoyed Syndicate. I liked the characters (especially Evie) and the gameplay was fun as well.

I have to admit, I'm also not feeling Odyssey. I've had it since launch and while I've played it for like 20 hours overall, I'm not just not into it. I think it's been like two months since I've played it.
 
I still .... play my warframe game sooo cool... It would be nice to have trekbbs friends there but I have been solo-ing it for years ..--- just the =--= dojo friends
 
Splitting my time mostly between 'Battlefront II' and 'Borderlands 2'. I picked up BFII *very* cheap on sale a few months back and while I really enjoy it, I'm glad I didn't pay full price at launch.

As for BL2; I've been playing it off and on for *years* and yet oddly I've only gotten one character to the Warrior (twice, via TVHM.) Right now I'm finally getting around to playing the last of the old DLC before checking out the new free one that dropped the other week.

RE: Assassin's Creed games. For some reason, I've never been able to get that into them. I played though a fair bit of AC2, but for some reason stopped and didn't come back to it until years later and by that point, I just couldn't get back into it. I know AC4 is universally lauded and I'll probably check it out at some point, but the prospect of going through 2 again then 3 first is decidedly unappealing.
Not sure why it didn't gel for me. Perhaps the gameplay started to feel too shallow and repetitive, the pace of the story too slow for me to even remember what they hell I was supposed to be doing and why. That combined with the snowstorm of side quests, collectables and whatnot left me with the impression that I was running on the spot and not really getting anywhere.
