Default Re: What are you playing right now?

Yeah, Vampire Bloodlines rocked. Too bad Troika Games went bankrupt shortly thereafter. It was one of the funniest, most disturbing games in a long long while. One of the best FPS-RPG crossovers of all time.

Right now I just finally beat Gothic III on my huge trilogy marathon, only to find that there are at least 2 more different endings, so I'm powerlevelling the heck out of it to see how fast I can beat it the 2nd time.

Been mostly playing The Guild II, a medeival mercantile dynasty sim where you get to slave away your days in hopes of making a profitable buisiness, then get married in order to hand the family fortune down the line. Pretty funny gameplay, I find that the quickest way to strike it rich is to be... not a brigand, a blacksmith or a scholar... but to be a pig farmer. You can just sit around all day shovelling manure and slopping hogs and within the first two seasons wind up with enough gold to enter lesser nobility. Of course, this angers the incumbant nobles to see the smelly master of manure rise above them, so I usually make my farmer a mighty fighter decked out in platemail and battleaxes with martial arts and constitution maxed. Then when brigands try to raid the farm, we chop them up and feed em to the hogs.
