What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?

I tried to give Oblivion another chance, I really did, but..... since on the PS3 there are no mods/fixes for the most obvious problems, and since my PC cant run Oblivion in an enjoyable way, I went back to Morrowind. Really, the only thing Oblivion got on this game is graphics, and perhaps combat (though I for one LIKE the hit-miss statistic combat in morrowind).

Also tried to get back more into LoL, but the reason why I quit playing some time ago is surfacing again, so I better quit and waste more time on Diablo/Morrowind.

Does anyone still play DotA?

I recently installed LoL again, like it many times more than DotA, never played HoN... I like how LoL did many things differently, instead of copying DotA.... besides, its free, its easy and quick to find games, its got normal and ranked play, 2 maps, new heroes updates, quite good balance, and can be a lot of fun when you get the right people on both teams....

However, as with most online coop games, if you have fun or not depends on the teammates and enemies
if your team sucks, doesnt think and feeds-->no fun
if enemy team sucks, you steamroll them, no challenge-->no fun
if somebody leaves, 5v4, usually guaranteed win/loss--->no fun
half of your team is made of smartass assholes who just make you want to slap them--> ARGH
.....
you get my point :) Thats why I play and enjoy singleplayer games more, but I still play it and ocasionally have a lot of fun

Oh, also for mindless relaxation:
Serious Sam First Encounter

Funny situation:
* 1 Headless Kamikaze comes running after Sam, screaming : AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA...*
*Sam shoots him*
Sam: "Go AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA yourself!"
*An army of headless kamikazes appears*
Sam: "Oh-oh...."

This game is classic.

Demon's Souls. I feel determined to finish the last section and actually beat the game for once. I hate you Blue Dragon!


Heh, I never killed that guy, I always just ran through between his fire breath to get to the last boss. And the red dragon I killed only by shooting him from the tower on the bridge in 1-2 like 150 times, one time for each swoop he made, often missing, so I needed more arrows in the end (it takes a while to figure when to shoot).

On topic: Other than Diablo 2, I also play Oblivion for PS3, lack of mods and fixes for many issues sucks, but it plays smooth, looks gorgeous, and there is so much content anyways, so Im having fun.

Oblivion recommended mods?

Sure, you can't do a lot of stuff with console versions of these, but this is precisely the reason I sacrifice that option. I loathe fiddling with graphics, trying for hours to suss out why things aren't working, why I get this glitch, what patch I should get, why is my fps so low, which of my programs is interfering...


Many mods arent that hard to install and dont cause any trouble, and with good PC, oblivion with mods is they way to go, but otherwise I agree... and thats why I bought today the platinum version for PS3, with Knights/SI included..... At least now I can finally play the game and enjoy playing it, since everything is so smooth and good looking, just awesome, no stuttering in combat etc :D Of course some things suck in vanilla, but I would sacrifice all the mods anytime just to play smoothly / enjoyably.

Also I can get used to the PS3 controls so I am ready when Skyrim hits us.

Oblivion recommended mods?

Thanks for the suggestions, but unfortunately, after I tried installing Oblivion again, I couldnt get it to run with smooth FPS, with or without mods, even on horribly ugly video settings.... Dont know why, they only thing that changed in my PC since the last time I played it is that I got a BETTER graphic card.... I dont get it.... Tried everything, messing with oblivion.ini, performance mods, very low resolution... still runs like shit.

At least I can bookmark this page, if I can get a better PC before Skyrim comes out.

You got dumped (geo)dood !

Anyways, playing Diablo 2 with PlugY to get all the things from MP into SP.... Still the best game ever (for me), I can play it over and over again....
Over the past 10 years, thousand of hours poured into this game and still counting :) And yet I still see new items, still havent tried all the builds I want, and still only finished the game once on Hell.

Oh diablo, what is your secret ingredience..... Whatever it is, I sure hope they put it in D3 too (cant come soon enough, damn you blizzard and your "when its done")

What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?

2 Games currently:

Kings Bounty Armored Princess (I think I like it even more than Heroes 5)

TItan quest with Paths mod - 'cause there is no other ARPG that comes close to the fun I had with Diablo 2 (many people would say Torchlight, I say bleh, too shallow, and many other negatives), Grim Dawn and Diablo 3 are still far away..... sigh, maybe Torchlight 2 will come with something else than just multiplayer for which I dont care at all.

What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?

Might and Magic 3: Isles of Terra.

Retro... yeah. So many other games I want to play from that era of RPGs. Wizardry 6/7, Eye of the Beholder games (though I hate having to create my own map on paper), MaM 4/5, Lands of Lore, some Ultima games...

Skyrim looks awesome.

Oblivion for me was a good game, if only for a while. After some time roaming the lands and dungeons, you realize they all look the same, and the "enemies level with you" was just stupid. The mods helped a lot, but still, it just couldnt keep my attention for long. It also ran with very poor framerates/stuttering and other issues on my PC, which could otherwise run any other game no problemo.

Hoping for a real, hand-crafted world this time around. And according to some google searching for Skyrim information, it seems that this time they will actually do it that way.

They are adding many good things to the game: Perks, more combat moves, finishers, better 3d camera, dragon shouts, DRAGONS, better character creation(beards), children (took their time)...... Whats not to like. Definitely enough for me to get Skyrim the moment it comes out. Now all I want is more cool-looking armor than in Oblivion. Because most of the armor looked just silly (to me that is).

Also, they added dual wielding. Nuff said :D
