What games are everyone into now?
I buy a ton of computer games on bundlestars. Find a bundle of games for cheap and plug a 360 controller into my desktop. Just like a console but better processing and graphics.
I could recommend some games if anyone likes computer gaming at all. Far as consoles, been just PS4 for the past year or so. Playing Madden, WWE 2k17, GTA Vice City, and Gems of War for the most part. Still have games I need to play in my library, considered buying GTA 5 with it on sale for $30... Curious to hear what everyone is into. Been seeing Lancet playing Nioh quite a bit... Always interested to hear what others like though. |

Typically not into most AAA games these days. The industry is corrupt and broken, with a few exceptions like Blizzard and From Soft. AA/Underhyped games are where I look now - Paradox, Atlus, and some indie devs are my go tos right now, in addition to Overwatch.
Will never buy games from EA, Capcom, Konami, or Rockstar ever again. They're all deplorables that don't deserve anyone's cash. Ubisoft is cancer too, but to a much lesser degree than the others. |

Surprised Ubisoft isn't at the top of that list; they more than anyone else seem devoted to the idea of "annual release, we can just patch it to be playable later."

For me, it's basically Paradox. Crusader Kings 2, Europa Universalis 4, and Stellaris. Which one I'm playing at any particular point is usually based on which announced future expansion excites me the least, so it's been EU4 for a while. Aside from that, Shin Megami Tensei 4. Haven't finished it yet, lost a lot of motivation once I ended up somehow too neutral to take the neutral path.

Capcom and Konami I can understand, especially Konami since they don't really do games anymore... It's the other two I'm lost on.

I loved remember11 alot more than ever17 for most of the game because of better pacing, except for that CRAP ending in remember11. But the plot twist in ever17 was super great and why a lot of people still look at ever17 fondly.

Also at this point I'm just playing Overwatch until Nier: Automata comes out. But before that I have Horizon: Zero Dawn ordered on my PS4 so the two of those will surely hold me until the wombo combo of Mass Effect and Persona 5 and after that I'm pretty sure games are over because this first three months alone has been fucking great in terms of releases and doubly so for the PS4.
Also there's still Overwatch which is the all-game.

Rockstar just makes shitty games in a really douchey fashion. They're everything wrong with the work culture of the industry. We're talking 18 hour work days, and anyone who's like "But I have a family" is fired on the spot. They know everyone wants to work for them because they put out the most bland mediocre garbage that's marketed towards the largest population possible, so they treat their workers like trash. Ubisoft doesn't bother me as much because I can just ignore them. People know they suck, so it's not like R* where people circlejerk to their games all the goddamn time despite them being trash. And they don't destroy everything good in the world like EA, Konami, and Capcom. I'm not buying their shit, but nobody else is either anymore, so nbd. I do take serious issue with their attitude towards the PC, though. |

Their last great game was Red Dead Redemption and even then it's less because of the moment to moment gameplay and more the narrative and how it was told. But I don't blame Rockstar alone for the failings of Grand Theft Auto 5. Quote:
Ubisoft is weird because it's a company that a lot of the internet always has bad shit to say about and yet those same people still buy games like For Honor which has literal actual pay to win mechanics and a fucking P2P server system for their multiplayer focused game. You want to talk mediocre games made for mass appeal, Ubisoft is where you go. I liked Watch Dogs 2 but it's like a 3/5 game. For all the voices crying foul at Ubisoft over shit like Uplay and generic games with no substance they sure do sell well enough.

I mean, EA killing Maxis after parading them naked through town is only a couple years old at this point. If they're trying to make amends, that's not how you do it. Though I guess we don't know which side was at fault for putting out the garbage Maxis was putting out.
That said, them killing off Origin for the completely petty reasons they did is a lifelong, unforgivable offense. |
