have you think of what kind of character you would make? i looked some q&a on youtube this morning, druids seemed pretty nice. :D or i could do a mage dunno. not long anymore, two hours+ till release.

i have literally no clue about this game except that it's made by top pc-rpg guys ever and it got incredibly good reviews http://np.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/30da3k/pillars_of_eternity_review_thread/.

i'll probably be a rogue or something, it's what i usually pick in rpgs.

i see. oh but yeah, you said it haha. tim cain, cris avellone, josh sawyer. with those three, the game can't be a failure.

Yeah, Paradox Interactive + Obsidian guys. Lush.

I see GTA V is available for PC pre-order. I've never played it, but after seeing the trailers and the reviews, it's tempting.

I had it on PS3. Great game, but it doesn't warrant a second purchase for me. I know they've added some stuff in the next-gen version, but in all honesty, it isn't anything significant.

Of course, if you haven't played it yet, then definitely go for it.

Still playing The Binding of Isaac as The Lost... It's driving me crazy. I managed to finish the Womb and kill Isaac, and also beat the Boss Rush. Only need to kill the corpse, Satan and The Lamb, complete the poop bombs challenge and grab all the items I haven't yet, and I'll be done

Bloodborne looks daaaaamn tempting.

It's pretty fuckin' sweet once you get used to the changes in combat from DS.

after 5+ hours of gameplay, i'm telling ya: pillars of eternity is such a lusty game. it feels so mellow, as like the old infinity engine games. i just love the character what i came up to. and the whole game it self is so nicely done. maan i can't wait to play it tomorrow again.

might have to grab PoE - that sounds great. did any of you play divinity: original sin? would you recommend one over the other? entirely different beasts?

the combat felt tighter in original sin, loved that environmental/element manipulation stuff a lot. but otherwise it was a bit of a chore, i never even finished it, they got the narrative building wrong somehow, the tl;dr wasn't really well written. it also felt very linear in how you had to approach questing due to how they leveled the enemies, which involved a lot of back and forth from what i remember.

at least from the 6 hours i played (i realized that i played this long at 4 am, good sign) the poe feels very different, you know you're into something really epic and it's all written very well, the combat is deep if not as visceral and exciting as divinity. graphic wise it feels like you're walking in a big jpeg but it's sooo beautifully drawn with great attention to detail.

Activision has resurrected the Sierra brand to publish new games: first is Geometry Wars 3, and a new King's Quest game for PS4.

Geometry Wars 3 on PS4 is great - out now, BTW.

Bloodborne is getting more and more amazing as we play it - I love the fast-paced combat and those counterattacks... so satisfying when you pull them off!

Assassin's Creed IV is very good so far and I only just got my own ship. Niiice.

Pillars of Eternity is so fucking good.

yeah i love the combat too. it's much more in depth than in baldur's gates, though very similar. it's like every counter is a challange, you really have to think about what to do: when to cast particular spells etc. like today, some undead pack took me 4 tries to beat them. ever more? at the end, it was epic when i saw them lying on my knees.

btw. i made an orlan barbarian lol. what kind of a adventurers you guys are playing?

what a bunch of bullshit.

Nintendo is headed the way of sega, we will be playing nintendo games on our ps4/ps5s as downloadables.

>.<

Made a bunch more progress in Bloodborne and I'm fucking hooked on this game... I never played DSII or Demon's Souls, but this easily trumps Dark Souls for me, and that's saying something considering I'm not even close to being done... I'm hitting a wall with a certain boss though atm, she's a real bitch, but I did discover a new weapon so now it's time to go farm some souls (I mean "blood echoes") and blood stones.

This.

The taste of being triumphant is too great to ignore in that game, even if you die 39838439834 times to achieve it.

ive got 4 heroes of the storm keys, if anyones interested!
