So, what other games are you into right now?

I'm playing Quake Wars and Forged Alliance in my precious spare time.

I recommend both to anyone who likes stuff blowing up.

As my router's had too much trouble over the past few ages to handle even the light traffic of NWN, I've been playing a lot of single-player games.

WCIII, Portal, Nethack, the Doom Roguelike...

When I can't afford to play a game that doesn't pause, I'm currently playing through Oblivion again, except this time with the expansion, and doing some of the quests I didn't do the first time through.

Well come on! That games a "huge" Give-away!

And Kizia! Age of Empires Mythology! Hell of a game!

I spent ages making maps... and pitting two Computer controlled teams ( Two computers were also allied) against my one... just to see how long I could survive.

And when I know I wont have long, Im playing the Ancient but Classic Fallout and Fallout 2's

Probably one of the hardest endbosses ever too!

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.

No other games than NWN installed on my compy at the current moment, but I do own the following: Half-Life 1, both Baldur's Gates and their expansion disks in one good cheap buy! Black & White, Neverwinter Nights 2 and the expansion, and of course Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines

For the latter I recommend entering a google search of "Vampire Masquerade Bloodlines unofficial patch". That ought to fix a bunchload of the nasty bugs that Troika had to leave to the game. It's a big download, and you just got to patch the game to Troika's last patch, and then unpack the large file to the install directory, and voila

Apart from nwn I'm also giving COD4 a run and enjoying it for something completely different to nwn. Can't give up nwn but!

Grand Theft Auto IV on PS3 is taking just way too much of my time right now... that said it totally rocks

Marswipp · « **Reply #14 on:** May 10, 2008, 08:48:17 AM »

Guild Wars: Prophecies (Game of the Year edition) and Dream of Mirror Online (Which has gotten rather boring)

Yep, reason I've not been around besides the unsocialable times I work - GTA IV, and Rainbow Six Las Vegas 2 (which took over from CoD4).

yeah I've just started playing that a few hours, when I need a little break from the layoness. Don't have the expansion though and my poor card is having a rough time.

oh hell, Lorcove haha, me and my two bros used to play this game so much together either on lan or via internet. I think our longest game after killing all the oponents and taking all the resources and killing one an other (which we started as allies lol) took 9 hours.

So, Portal's main campaign was both terrifyingly creepy and disappointingly short. But that's why they made challenge and bonus levels!

GLaD OS is the creepiest villain since... Ever.
