What games are you playing?
Re: What games are you playing?
Finally got through all sixty levels in Marble Blast Ultra that I had been playing every now and then this month. Looks like I can finally edit that games beaten thing again for me. Neato.

Re: What games are you playing?
Finished La Noire.
It was an all right game. It's sort of a difficult game for me to enjoy when I can't read facial expressions.
Some of the characters were essentially jerks, sorta drove me nuts. I wasn't too big a fan of the main character to be frank.
Uhhh... Still gotta 5 star all the cases, I'll probably use a guide for my own sanity, also got a bunch of collectables to find.

I let's played lampshade, which was very interesting platformer/puzzle game with some darkness related gimmicks and slight horror. The graphics were really nice too, and big part of what got me playing the game.

I'm back to recording the never-ending series that is Mega Man Powered Up. Trying to get footage for the two bonus characters in the game.

Re: What games are you playing?
I've gotta get something off of my chest.
That aside, this is a really good game I wish I had gotten into a lot sooner.
But man, it REALLY sours the experience. Like, an entire letter grade off just for that.

Who would've thought, right?Re: What games are you playing?
I recently started my replay of Kindred Spirits but going through the story linearly instead of the more nonlinear fashion it's originally presented in. It's pretty interesting and it's great since you don't have to wait until you've finished the main story for a given month before seeing the conclusion to each of the separate storylines for the month. Though with the extras especially there'd be a lot of spoilers if it were actually presented that way normally, lol.

I started playing Final Fantasy VII. Fun so far, but environments can be confusing to navigate at times.
I'm at Chapter 12, Book 2 of Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem. Dragons are really annoying

Re: What games are you playing?
Nice, FFVII was a fun game to watch my relatives play through and an experience playing through it myself. If you're having a little trouble moving around, I believe there is an option turn on an arrow indicator to see where entry point on the screen are.HatKid wrote:I started playing Final Fantasy VII.

I've been playing Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate with some friends at end game G Rank in preparation for the oncoming release of Monster Hunter Generations. Aside from that, I've been doing the rare, but occasional stream of SRW Z3 and soon SRW Z on Twitch. I gotta say, SRW Z3 is a behemoth to continue with, but I bet SRW Z is gonna be even more amazing to play once I start.
Re: What games are you playing?
I started Danganronpa yesterday because a friend bought it for me thinking I'd be interested in it. Actually does seem interesting so far. The cursor system you use to examine things can be a bit buggy at times though. So far I've accidentally advanced the story by going through a door when my cursor was over a person and I've managed to examine an object that was on the exact opposite side of the room from my cursor. Hopefully that won't be too big an issue later.

Re: What games are you playing?
Oh hey. I forgot about this thread. Again.
So. May as well infodump my progress over the last couple months, because I can.
First, I played through Okami back in March or thereabouts. Fantastic game.
After that was just a lot of puttering around in Oblivion. Trying out mods of varying quality and such. I love that game, but it has more bugs than a rainforest and crashes more often than a rookie race car driver. Yeah.
Now I'm working my way through, and have nearly completed Tales of Eternia. Or Tales of Destiny 2, as it was kind of cumbersomely titled in the US. PSX original, because I happened to have a copy, despite its apparent rarity. I don't remember *where* I got it, either, so that's kind of strange.
So yeah. There's my backlog for this thread. Hooray!

Re: What games are you playing?
I've actually gone back to Pokemon Reborn, a fangame that used to get batted around on the skypehaus 2.0/3.0 a lot. It seems like the version number has changed since I last played, which has messed with a lot of the early event pokemon, but on the flip side, a lot of the early game plot dialogue seems to have been tightened up so it's slightly less cringey. Having played it a certain amount before, I sort've know what's coming up in the immediate future, but I'm just pottering around and trying to arrange a team out of all the weakling pokemon the game lands you with at first. (I started with Charmander, because early dragon rage is more or less a hard carry for some of the less fair bosses of the early game. The other option would be to grab me a Trubbish and rely on level 7 Toxic Spikes and level 12 Acid Spray to decimate almost any opposition, but I did that last time). My current team is Gwendolin (aforementioned Charmander) ClngerWinger (Wingull), Hora (Zigzagoon), Deeeeeleeee (based!Kricketune), Espurr (an Espurr), and Adda (Ekans).
Basic strat so far is for Wingull, Charmander and Espurr to be my offensive core. Ekans is my lead, since it has Intimidate and can set paralysis with Glare; I then switch out into whatever can resist my opponent's moveset best, since I haven't really found a tank I like yet. If I don't have anything with any particular resistance to the enemy mon, I roll with Zigzagoon since it's got Headbutt to STAB chip/flinchlock, and is otherwise a decent sacrifice for a switch (I'm mainly keeping it around for Pickup, since items and money are pretty limited in Reborn, and can be fairly powerful). If Zigzagoon wins, great! If it doesn't, I switch in for one of my damage guys. Kricketune I know to be very effective against some oddball early gymleaders, and already has STAB Struggle Bug, Fury Cutter, and some powerful attack for this point in the game, so it's a fringe case; I'll rotate it out of the team eventually, probably to make room for a wall, but right now it's a specialised solution to problems I know are coming up.
Lategame, provided I'm still using the same core (fairly unlikely, since Reborn sort've requires shaking up your party every now and then to deal with new threats and accomodate better mons), I can use my Ekans/Arbok as a more offensive force, setting paralysis as usual and then laying on some Acid Spray. Charizard will be Charizard. Espurr is male and will have Prankster when it evolves, so I can use it as a dual screens lead if I want to try out some less durable switch-ins. Wingull will eventually become Pelipper, which will give my team some defog and some bulk, although I hesitate to keep it around without grabbing some meaningful deterrent to electric-types, given that it has a 4x weakness and Charizard will also be weak. Zigzagoon, depending on move availability in this game, can eventually be morphed into a Belly Drum sweeper that will benefit from my Meowstic's dual screens. If not, well, Pickup gets better at higher levels, at least. Kricketune will most likely be in the pc, smoking a cigarette and murmuring, "I coulda been a contender..."
For all this planning, I'm pretty awful at pokemon.

Re: What games are you playing?
I don't think so, unless that was in a previous version I haven't played. You have at least two different 'rival' figures given to you at the start of the game, and they're both pre-named and set in stone. You do get the option to play as a non-binary gender protagonist though.Telamon wrote:Was that the one where you had the option at the beginning of whether or not your rival has 'swag'?TheVulpineHero1 wrote:Pokemon Reborn

Re: What games are you playing?
Probably a different once. I've seen quite a few pokemon fan-games, including Reborn, but I have trouble remembering which is which.
Re: What games are you playing?
I think Danganronpa can take the cake for most unexpected twists during one event. Won't mention what part of the story it was to avoid spoiling people but there were two twists on who the culprits was. It was so bad that I actually hadn't really caught up to it other than one detail which I'd noted seemed odd but hadn't put anymore thought into until it was mentioned by another character.
Re: What games are you playing?
I've started playing Read Only Memories tonight, since it was part of a Humble Bundle and it came highly recommended by a friend, and oh my gosh this game is the most adorable thing. I mean, yeah, it deals with some pretty serious issues but holy crud it's amazing. I love Turing, the robot character, and the world it sets up is very intriguing. I can't wait to see where this game ends up going.

Re: What games are you playing?
Finished Tales of Eternia earlier tonight. The final boss, like everything else in the game, just had way too much HP. Didn't otherwise spoil the game, though. Fun stuff. Not as good as Tales of the Abyss, but being one of the early games in the series, it's understandable. Everything else I had to say about the game, I said in my last post. So yay!

Re: What games are you playing?
Bought and played A Healer Only Lives Twice yesterday. I managed to go right to the end of the dungeon on my fifth or so try. Spoilers: dps and crowd control are real important, and the attack + pierce buff and the attack twice buff are the best ways of getting it. The endboss only took two rounds to kill though, which was kinda sad. I don't think it's a game with any real longevity, but the concept is neat.

Re: What games are you playing?
Remembered that I had picked up this game in a bundle back when I didn't have access to my 3DS and started it up today:
Re: What games are you playing?
Beat Danganronpa. It was quite an interesting story. I even managed to guess who the mastermind was before it was even time to actually investigate their identity. Then again with the exception of the very first murder and one a bit later on where someone rearranged the crime scene for their own purposes I was actually quite accurate with my guesses (though not always correct on the reasoning) so I suppose that's not too terribly surprising even though I technically shouldn't have had any real reason to guess that person. (Vague details but still spoilers for some of the endgame content: )
As soon as it was verified that the mastermind was one of the students I realized it absolutely had to be one of the students we thought had already died. And out of those the only one which stood out to me as potentially being the mastermind turned out to be who it actually was. Then after that I noticed the biolab's lights, well before the main character noted it himself, and noticed the last corpse's hands had a pretty interesting trait that seemed way out of place for that person but not for the mastermind at which point I'd pretty much pieced together what turned out to be what actually happened.
