Re: What game are you playing now?

Planescape: Torment I decided to pick this back up and put an hour or so into it today. 20 hours in, I think that this is not an RPG , but an adventure game with light RPG elements. There are some things I really like about this game. It looks and sounds fantastic; it's hard to believe it's running …

Last night I started Bioshock 2 and got about an hour in. It's been a little over 2 years since I beat Bioshock 1, so I feel I can get back into it now. Unless I was absolutely in love with a game, i will seldom play sequels immediately, and sometimes will go years between sequels. For example, it's …

Finished Tomb Raider 2013. Yeah, I enjoyed it overall. It had its ups and downs but it was entertaining enough for me to get to the end. Pretty satisfying endgame, I must say. Took about 25 hours for me. Filename 2023-01-23 18_48_27-Tomb Raider.jpg File size 224.58 KiB Views 1489 views

Minecraft version 1.7.2 playing peacefull-creative. I have uploaded that world/game onto my blog, even though it is not done. I just want to build a city and will probably end up creating a small country of buildings. Here is a couple of screenshots of some of my city..... 2023-01-23_13.05.07.png …

Re: Most disappointing games?

in Milliways
Fun thread to go back and re-read. My contribution many years back was Ultima 8 . Since then, I've come across another that was so disappointing: Albion . Very promising DOS RPG from 1995, set in space. It starts off great! Nice story, graphics, great GM soundtrack, turn-based combat. It's been …

The shaky cam is pretty jarring for me that's why I never managed to get into it.. It's on my backlog though. Assuming you are responding to my post, Tomb Raider 2013 had been on my backlog for almost 3 years before I decided to try it. And now that I looked it up, it was a temporary giveaway when …

Tomb Raider (2013) Slowly working my way through Shanty Town now. This is a huge section with tons to explore with only a few combat sections. These are my favorite parts of this game. And oh, it looks so good especially for a 2013 game. Shanty Town 1.jpg Uh... I hate that game with passion. What …

Re: Ultima 6 no midi?

Regarding Ultima 6 with newer GM devices, I have created a custom MIDI.DAT optimized for Sound Canvas devices. Using it should sound better on GM devices than the default MT-32 optimized one that comes with the game. Grab it here (remember to backup the original). Some background/setup info here . …

I know this is not technically gaming, but I've gotten on a gpu tuning kick. I happen to be using Tomb Raider (2013) as part of my test suite. :) So far I've gotten my RTX 2060 KO to run at 1905Mhz stable with only 0.85v. This basically turns the card from a 160W TDP to a 110W TDP without losing …

Now that I finished part 1 of Bard's Tale Remastered, I'm back on Tomb Raider (2013) to try to complete it. It's a great story and entertaining, but I'm really not a fan of the platforming aspects. The story and exploration are what's keeping me going. I'm near the end of the Chasm Monastery section …

I've been playing Halo: Reach from Halo: Master Chief Collection on PC. On Legendary difficulty, the mission Long Night of Solace is kicking my ASS. I've played the same space combat bit for 2 hours straight and died about 200 times, and still have not managed to get past the second Covenant wave ( …

I think there's room for both types of players for RPGs. I tend to play like Ensign Nemo, but I don't think RandomStranger is wrong for playing the way he does. I have very little time and a huge backlog. I want to enjoy the story, create my own party, and just have fun with as little frustration as …

The Bard's Tale Trilogy Remastered I'm nearing the end of Part 1. According to the in-game timer I've played 52 hours and 35 minutes. I could probably have marched to the end game 10+ hours ago, but I'm really enjoying leveling the characters up and finding new items to identify and possibly …

Stray (Use Steamless to play without Steam) Just got it setup to play without Steam so haven't gotten into it yet. My 18 yr old son's been playing this and he loves it. I've watched over his shoulder for a bit and it does look like something I'd enjoy. Just have to whittle my backlog down some more …

Re: 16Bit Color Dos Games

I've been hunting for a DOS game (also had a Windows launcher) that I bought new in 1997 that supported high color. I remember specifically buying it because it advertised 65,000 color support on the back of the box. Unfortunately, I found the RTS gameplay pretty lackluster. Anyway, after a ton of …
