Skyrim with some new mods to breath some freshness back into it, a bit of Torchlight 2 and World of Tanks every now and then.
Waiting for Far Cry 3 to come out in a week or two as it's getting fantastic reviews across the board, only problem is that benchmarks are starting to appear and it's performance on the PC is terrible even on the top end GPU's.
Tried towns, gnomoria, a game of dwarves, goblin camp etc. Nothing beats Dwarf Fortress in level of complexity and is really in a class of it's own. Hard to believe it was made in 2005 and not 1985 with the way it looks and the awful menu system. If they ever made a even crappy 8 bit equivalant of DF that would be the game I would play but instead i'm settling for gnomoria for the time being
So far Towns, Minecraft and Skyrim have been the non-mmo-games I played the most. In fact, the time I spent on Towns alone is about twice as much as I spent on Aion, Rift, AoC, WH, Lotro, SWTOR and GW2 together. Oddball?
I am enjoying coop Borderlands 2, Mass Effect 3 multiplayer, Dungeon defenders, and a little bit of Torchlight 2. I am not buying anymore games till after xmas. If I do not get dishonored for xmas, I will pick it up after.
Originally posted by ionxeel CoD: Black Ops 2 on PC. Great game but causes me to nerd rage a lot.
How is it? I had BO for ps3 and have to say i hated it. Too many 9 year olds bitching on the mic for back up. Im assuming PC is much more mature in terms of less children talking over everyone on the mic. If i was going to get another Call of Duty game it would be for PC
This time on hard mode because I missed the achievement for that the first round... Upping difficulty after you've started a toon doesn't count. *gnashes teeth* Oh and I splurged for the rest of the DLC, along with some other goodies on Black Friday weekend.
About to stop playing TL2 but still playing it a bit. My embermage went too quickly from getting one-shotted to beeing ridiculously OP. Lack of balance, but still fun.
Still playing Skyrim. Over 120 simultaneous mods and I keep checking Nexus from time to time for new ones.
Lucky me, most new games out there are just "meh". Back to playing my guitar every day; my fingers haven't felt this nimble for years and I am considering building a band again.
I'm not playing that much atm but when I do it's mainly Path of exile closed beta. I play some Quake live and Unreal tournament 2004 every now and then.
Path of exile: Really good game for those who like more complex ARPG's with character customisation, permanent choices and awesome loot. Still in closed beta but open beta is coming soon.
Quake Live and UT2004: Best FPS games ever made for competitive play imo, long learning curve and very skillbased games. Everyone gets destroyed if they play against people who are significantly better, as it should be in a skillbased game, just do your best and you will keep improving.
I'm playing the hell out of Chivalry:Medieval Warfare. Found it on Steam, watched a gameplay video, and thought I might like it. A week and a half later, I've got 15ish of my buddies playing it. Lots of fun. First-person slasher, based in mediaval times (of course). Lots of gore, good times and laughter had by all when we get together and kill each other.
Skyrim (again). Trying a more spell-user based character this time around. Hearthfire is great fun. Neverwinter Nights. Just started up another campaign. Rail Baron. The boardgame made for computer. Master of Magic. Still dabble with this from time to time.
After I finish up NWN, I'll start up NWN 2. Will be getting back into Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (1 & 2) again soon.

Personally the only modern MMORPG trend that annoys me is the idea that MMOs need to be designed in a way to attract people who don't actually like MMOs. Which to me makes about as much sense as someone trying to figure out a way to get vegetarians to eat at their steakhouse. - FARGIN_WAR

This isn't a signature, you just think it is.

Kingdoms of Amalur, again but on a fresh toon.
This time on hard mode because I missed the achievement for that the first round... Upping difficulty after you've started a toon doesn't count. *gnashes teeth* Oh and I splurged for the rest of the DLC, along with some other goodies on Black Friday weekend.
Ah well, I love the game so it's no trouble. ^^
