Just finished 2033 again, got the good ending, which is the first time ive had it

Going to start LL again later

Oh? I wasn't aware there was an alternate ending. How do you achieve that then? And are there 2 endings in LL as well? Actually reading the 2033 books the game are based on just now so will be looking to replay them again...

LoadsaMoney · 6 Mar 2017 at 21:57

Its all to do with the moral choices you make, when talking to people, things you do etc..., ive played it umpteen times, and only ever got the bad ending, but i got the good one this time, so must have got enough of the points for the good one

LL also has alternate endings

Mmmm I wonder if having the girl dance for me several times in a row in LL classed me as a 'beast' and defaulted me to the 'bad' ending!

Just started Amnesia: The Dark Descent for the first time. 1 hour in and enjoying soaking up the lore and background story. A few chills so far but nothing too hard on the heart... I've got a real itch for horror games recently. After failing to get through Outlast I'd kinda shied away from them but after managing to get through all of Alien Isolation my confidence or should that be courage has been restored.

Gah, just had the frozen enemy bug on LL, in the room with the big fan you need to turn off to crawl through, the only ones that were moving, were the heavily armoured buggers that come in when the alarm goes off, was like it till i got to the rail-car, guy that uncovers that was ok, so will see if its gone back to normal from now on.

Wasn't going to reatart the chapter, as i was near the end

after finishing Dark souls I had my usual post dark souls slump where nothing else seemed as good, tried Mass effect and it felt old as did the combat but the story was OK until I got 3 crashes in a single afternoon so that's been put on the shelf, started Mass Effect 2 and feels much better but I fancied a simple but fun pick up and play game so decided on Borderlands 2 GOTY due to the quest nature I can pop on for 10 min quest but also spend an afternoon playing it when I am in the mood.

I played a good bit on console at launch but was playing with friends but they had more gaming time so soon out levelled me and when we did play together I didn't seem to be doing anything but I got all the XP. hopefully this will hold my attention for a period but as it will always be installed I can go back and continue at any point.

I'm tempted to setup my controller as I find them more relaxing then a keyboard and mouse on a chair but its working well so far so ill hold off for now.

Picked up Tomb Raider for about £5 a while back. If you've not played it I'd recommend it. Bought Rise Of The Tomb Raider on the strength of the first reboot, but so far it's not as good.

Mmm well yeah the story is a bit meh compared to the first one but the gameplay is just as good and it looks amazing. Does anyone else think that Lara's mammary glands are getting smaller with each new instalment!? Fired up Tomb Raider Legend a few months ago and I was like woah - there's the Lara I remember so fondly from my teenage youth!

Just started Clive Barker's Undying and Star Wars KOTR - playing through both for the first time and loving them so far. KOTR reminds me very much ME1 - I think I'm going to really enjoy this as long as the combat doesn't get as strategic as Dragon Age Origins as I really suck at that style of combat and it will stop me getting through the game.

I've managed to engineer quite a bit of gaming time over the past year or so - probably averaging 4-5 hours a day and given I have 3 kids and a career I'm quite chuffed with that. Those 4 hours have allowed me to juggle 5+ games at a time which have fallen into a regular selection of categories:

Old classic game (although always new to me as I wasn't a PC gamer in the past) - currently India Jones and the Emperor's Tomb.
A horror game - presently Clive Barker's Undying
A 'big' game which is usually an 'action RPG' - The Witcher 3 just now.
A AAA game I've always wanted to play - GTA V at the moment
A FPS game - Battlefield Hardline at the moment
A StarWars game (I bought the Star Wars humble bundle pack so have around 15 of them from across the years) - KOTR just now.
And then there is always one other - usually one that I spent more that my average of £6 on that hasn't quite gripped me but I'm determined to get through which is Godeater - Resurrection right now.

Dying Light and Hollow Knight are my games currently.

Enjoying both immensely.

Grim Dawn. Trying to play catch up before the new expansion comes out

They made them smaller, but at least they aren't triangle like the original TR1

.

I kept reading how Rise of the TR was better in every way to its predecessor, but so far it just seems like i'm playing the same game. Still enjoying it though.

Started Oblivion again from the beginning, hopefully ill Finnish it this time!

TNA · 19 Mar 2017 at 21:18

Uplink

Or to be precise, Uplink OS Mod

Pigeon_Killer · 20 Mar 2017 at 00:32

Metro: Last Light on Ranger Hardcore.

Up to Regina so far and it's been a breeze, not looking forward to the Watchmen later though.

Started the Mass Effect trilogy again.

Currently on IIos after that cheeky scamp Saren.

DONOHUE07 · 20 Mar 2017 at 05:46

Heh, after all the Mass Effect Andromederp chatter, I've just reinstalled it again, never quite finished it first time around, so hopefully will do now.

Currently d/l Mass Effect Updated/Improved Textures Mod (MEUITM), 4.4GB worth, and the xbox 360 controller mod, looking forward to it.

Using a g502 so have a decent mapping sorted out using the wheel lean buttons for attack and move.
