Once upon a time, you were poor and ran this game that was so slow...

I was working at Wal-Mart in the late 90s and I thought I was all cool talking about Wolfenstein when a co-worder told me about this game called "Daggerfall". He kept on and on for a few weeks so I finally tried it myself. WOW. How deep and immersive! I had never experienced anything like it...

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is a full standalone release and not a DLC for any existing Borderlands title. But even so, yes I agree that $60 is a bit steep for a full game in my opinion.

Steam Lunar New Year Sale

Have fun with Grim Dawn. It is pretty similar to Titan Quest - same concept on the class masteries, etc. I loved Titan Quest, D2, D3, and I played a bit of PoE. Unfortunately, when I finally got around to trying Grim Dawn last year I wasn't able to get into it. I probably didn't create a...

Playing Titan Quest (AE). What's the Best Class?

IDK if it relatively the BEST, but I played a lot of TQ and I recommend the Summoner (Earth+Nature). I had a buffed golem tank, I'd stand back and cast fire-based AOE, and cast heals via Nature. Nature also provided some great buffs (heart of oak, etc). I remember having some awesome gear that...

Question Wolcen, on sale. Good now?

Well I played it for an hour or so. The graphics and sounds are great. The voice acting and story presentation seem high quality. The player UI is a bit unusual with the action items on the opposite side of the actionbar compared to the typical aarpg but perhaps that is configurable and I...

Question Wolcen, on sale. Good now?

Wolcen is on sale at Steam this weekend. I read/watched tons of reviews up until around 6 months ago when I gave up on buying it. Does anyone have any experience with it lately? Reviews are still polarizing. I suppose worst case scenario is I try it and refund it if I don't like it or have...

Builder type games with high degree of difficulty?

Transport Fever 2 comes to mind. I didn't play it for too long but it did seem to have a long end game.

Discussion New World - Amazon's MMO releasing 8/25

Yeah disappointing but better than pulling a Cyberpunk.

Something new slipped under the radar and it looks genuinely good.

Yeah I've been noticing this on a few of the YouTube channels I follow. I might check it out. Anyone have any experience with it far?

Last Epoch? Opinions?

Thank you so much for the insight. It sounds like Last Epoch is something I would enjoy and I would feel good getting in as an early supporter. I'm going to hold off on Wolcen. Thanks again

Last Epoch? Opinions?

Thank you for the info. How is the loot and gearing in Last Epoch? It is mostly found or crafted? I liked the loot system in Diablo where there were a lot of uniques that made me feel like I was on a treasure hunt for those sweet drops. I didn't like the loot/gearing in Path of Exile so...

Last Epoch? Opinions?

Well I might pick it up this coming weekend. I'll post back my impressions. Everything I see about it looks pretty good. I was tempted by Wolcen but the latest update got delayed and New World's closed beta reviews are mixed...
