Civilization 5 logic.
You're about to go into space. Your neighbor keeps pestering you to let him in because he has horses.

Did some random contract in TF2.
Got a Wrench worth £5.53 on the market.
Thanks valve.

I decided to give the Sylvan Cave another try on Final Fantasy IV Advanced. I didn't really need to grind to bring my levels up, just overlooked using one spell that made a big difference.

So, my brother gave my sister a Christmas present this year and it was wonderful. As she started unwrapping it, she realized that it was her 3DS and A Link Between Worlds that he borrowed months ago.
Now, I've got A Link Between Worlds. I really want to finish Final Fantasy IV first, though. Ugh. Stupid life changing decisions.

Just play it on the toilet.
Don't end up like Hank Hill, without vidya to play.

So, I've finally gotten around to playing Dragon Age: Origins.
Well so much for ever finishing Skyrim. DA:O is so much better. It's not perfect, I wish there was a way to auto-target in battle, because sometimes I wind up doing nothing because one of my cohorts is in my way and I can't click directly on the enemy. And sometimes in the over the shoulder mode its hard to find what's around me, but it's hard to find my way around while exploring with the top-down camera view.
As good as Skyrim was, the characters were like...a 6. They were far better than most games offer up, but as far as real characterization it was quantity over quality. Skyrim characters were like...they developed archetypes and just tweaked the archetypes a bit for each person.
Dragon Age is more like...the common NPC is a common 4-5, but the special NPCs are a 7 and the player characters are an 8.5-9 in many cases.
I'm sitting here at work chomping at the bit waiting to get home to play it. I haven't had a game do that to me in quite a while. Years, in fact. Probably since Valkyria Chronicles (which I played early last year...I was very late on picking it up, too ;) ).
Not to mention...Cousland's Mabari is freaking adorable! You big, doofy-faced, murderous puppyl you're sooo cuute!

I didn't like Origins. It was more to do with the combat though. It took my sister 4 years to beat it. Characters were pretty top notch.

Kakriko Kid, your signature is awesome!

Thank you. I hate Adventure Time (and tell my 8 yr old daughter to get her riled up), but that gif just looked so gritty that I had to like it.

PC FO4 came in mail. Got it to work with a few mods thrown in, running about as smooth as ps4. Time will tell if it works better when the frame seizing vertibirds start showing up.

That whole PC thing is all nice on paper but nowhere does it mention trying to make games work for an hour. Because that happens. A lot. I have a powerful PC so that is not the problem. The problem is that it's more trouble than it's worth.
Bonus points for it only catering to people in the US with the dollar prices. That shit's not as easily available for such low prices everywhere, unless you are willing to hunt forums and auction sites for used parts, which requires time and luck.

Honestly, Exclusives aren't a bad thing in one regard.
I mean okay, they're hoarded by many companies, forced to work on outdated hardware and limits how amazing the game can be, but without exclusives there wouldn't be a lot of games. Exclusives are good for the sole factor that they can allow games to be made that otherwise wouldn't.
Take Bayonetta 2 for example. Would it have been made if not for the fact Nintendo paid for it to be an exclusive for their console? I'll admit that exclusives are bad in many many regards, but I won't admit that we should out right get rid of them. They're needed so games can be given the chance to see the light of day from companies.

Personally, I actually enjoy getting games to work when they don't initially. Its fun messing with them, modding and such. As I said in earlier post, just got PC version of FO4, modded it a good bit with things I've been wanting to do since I started playing it on PS4.
RE: The Free Gaming Thread v2 : Electric Boogaloo - Mass Distraction - 01-25-2016
I much prefer just playing a game without any extra fuss :|
