I still can`t understand what you guys dig in that super-simplistic and boring Arkham City game.
Well, you're not the goddamn Batman.

The best (most disturbing?) thing about the classic line:

is said to his new, 12 year old, traumatized sidekick who he just kidnapped from the crime scene mere minutes after the boy's parents were shot.

Simplistic games can be fun.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Crysis 2. It's not a very good game.

No.  It's not.  I was really disappointed.  It was trying and failing to be Half-Life 2.  I liked the first game, where I would drive around shooting down helicopters and other such silliness.  I just couldn't get excited about the game.

I deleted my World of Warcraft install. :o It's out of date that it's going to be easier to simply download a fresh installer from Blizzard rather then install patches if I ever decide to play again.

Last night I spent the evening playing Expeditions: Conquistador.

It's a lot like King's Bounty. It's got to be the same engine. But it's a bit better so far. You're a dude with a small band of followers who wants to go get some New World glory. You get to Hispaniola and have to jump through some hoops for the governor before you head off to Mexico. You get to pick ten or eleven followers of various types (scholar, doctor, soldier, scout, hunter), and they can get better with experience. I don't know how much use I'll get out of it, but it's a decent time sink. Worth twenty but not fifty.

Decided to try Tera. I like how it's mostly Wow Vanilla with action mode but I don't know. All games seems to suck nowadays.

I want to be told a good story!

There's this primitive form that you might want to try out.

It's not the same. :weep:

Based on Meri's recommendation, I'm reading Codex of Alera.

Damn it. Lost my KoA: Reckoning save. Actually, I forgot to copy it before a format earlier this year. I can find it with a recovery utility but it's content is not good.

:(

Began playing Inquisitor. Very promising so far if you like sprites and old-skool RPGs. Which any sane person does.
