What are you playing? (Redux)

I finally finished FTL

Very nice.  I played FTL a bit and never even got close to the end, much less beating it.

I did on easy.  You really need those weapon pre-igniters.

King's Bounty the Legend, thanks to a GOG.com sale. The Mac port is not exactly optimised, far from it, but it works.

Yeah. I play often but have never come close.

In FTL the last boss is so counter-intuitive. Kill off its crew and it becomes impossible to beat.
I thought I messed it up in the last sector when I wasn't paying attention and got one of my mantis boarding team killed. My rock substitute pulled through however.
I had so much scrap by the end, was able to get my power fully updated and the game became a case of constant switching of systems being powered up - full health med bay, less to engines and no oxygen for quick bursts of healing, etc...
Hell, the game itself involves doing the opposite of what it tells you, you have to seek out as much combat as you can

Anyone know any good new BioWarey plot heavy RPGs?

Sure, Bioware made a whole bunch of them.

Any of you folks preorder the Banner Saga?

I have been playing a bunch of Path of Exile lately.  I am playing in the hardcore Nemisis league.  I think my favourite builds so far are the traditional EK with Arctic Armour and lately the new Flameblast.

I'm reasonably happy with my Razor Naga, been using it for almost 2 years now.

It's especially handy for any game with rebindable keys and (obviously) MMOs, because it basically has a NUMPAD grafted to its side (you can choose for it to either emulate NUMPAD or the twelve number/symbol keys on top of your keyboard.



The two extra buttons you see on the left are defaulting to back/forward in my browser, though I think you can reprogram them.

I ended up going with the Logitech G600:



I couldn't find anywhere to actually try them out, but from feeling them up in the box I liked the side buttons on this one better, seemed easier to find the right one in a hurry.  It was also on sale for $20 off.  I like it so far but I have been in a bit of a gaming rut and haven't had a chance to really put it through its paces.

I KSed it.  Still waiting.  So close...

[Razgovory]

Honestly, I find it amazing that games that were kickstarted are now actually being released.  The whole concept seems insane to me, but it seems to work.

Yar. A unique travel mechanic, turn based tactical play, and some KoDP flavor? TAKE MY MONEY

Been following that one for a long time; didn't pull the trigger during its Kickstarter but I am definitely glad I pre-ordered.

The other one I'm really excited about which comes out right around the same time is Nidhogg.

[Grey Fox]

I'll be buying BS when it comes out, yes.

I don't pre-order, pre-access or KS games.

I test for a living, I am not doing it on my leasure time!

It is nice to see more and more come to fruition.

No movement on elite however...
