@Scoot26 I am playing a new one I think you would enjoy.

Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic

If you're like me, you'll need to play the first like 5 or 6 Tutorials to start getting the hang of building from an empty map.

It is at the upper limit of my tolerance for City-Building micro-management, but still fun.
What, you think I'm a Marxist?

Lol, I'll take a look into this, City Building is definitely my forte, though seems odd to be using the Soviet Union...

I think the notion is.

If you'd been given a set amount of money and then had to build a Planned Economy from scratch using the same kind of resources available to people under the Soviet Bloc, what would you build?

Recently beaten AC:BF for the 4th time for the 100% trophy. I'm a trophy whore, btw.

Taking turns Playing FFX with my 12 year old nephew is time well spent, he got sucked into FF7 recently, he's a fan. Two days ago, I watched him caked the Chocobos training and race within 2 hourso_O , already 3 hours in on trying to dodge 200 lightning bolts for a celestial weapon, we gonna clear this game out 100%, no doubt.

A lot of game companies are being created in the former Soviet bloc countries......that is why a ton of new games are being based in Russia and Baltic states.

If you make a great game, I don't care overmuch where you are based.

Unless it is a Dev Studio clearly run by some kind of character like a Bond villain, which I've not heard of.

I think it is great, getting to experience other places and cultures and historical settings via gaming.... big part of what I love about gaming.

I generally don't play AAA games, so I run into this quite a bit.......as long as the game is good, I don't care where it is.

Spider-Man miles morales should be cool. Hopefully this isn’t the end of a Peter Parker game also. Would like to see Spider-Man/venom game

Ratchet and clank maybe interested probably get it cause something My nephews can play

project athia looks impressive

returnal is a maybe

godfall a maybe

never got into the hit man games

demon souls looks sick af

Village I think will be a winner

horizon zero dawn 2 holy shit that looks good


to me the big winners are horizon zero dawn and project athia. lots of childish games being made was surprising. One disappointing thing to me is every main character in the good games is a female or a monster lol. Hopefully they have good stories to go along with that. But the biggest disappointment no new god of war

The reviews coming in for TLoU 2 look great


I've managed to avoid all spoilers, and have seen some people saying that even if you've seen them, they only capture a fraction of the story.

I never buy things on release, but most likely will with this one. TLoU is one of my favorite games of all time and I've been waiting years for this.

I will wait for your reviews before taking the shills word for it lol. The story leak already has turned me off to it anyways. But still curious how the game play is and what’s changed for part 2. One reviewer complained it wasn’t as fun as first cause allot of the puzzles aren’t there.

Finished Metal Gear Solid for about the 100th time a few days ago. Planned on going in order 1>2>3>4...but I'm playing MGS4 right now instead. will probably go 1>4>3>2 now.

Also playing The Show still.

Kind of playing Red Dead Redemption every now and then, but haven't put any real dedication to it.

Just tried War of Rights again....one of the most painfully accurate FPS out there......

It is a Civil War game that concentrates on the Maryland Campaign. Shoot once, kneel down reload for 30 seconds...repeat...

I'm not even sure what all the negativity was about after the leaks, but I'm glad I don't. Just going to enjoy it for what it is. Also a big fan of the whole Uncharted series.

its both terrible and fun at the same time

there is nothing better than driving the enemy with a good bayonet charge

Do they give you any like command ability?

I feel like a small to medium unit size FPS game where you get to recruit, command, equip, etc all the men in your unit.

That way you can enjoy the game from an individual perspective, but there's a bit more depth to the gameplay.

yes...servers can get up to 150 people.....officers can create fighting lines....if a soldier dies in a firing line it doesn't cost extra morale...If they die outside then it costs up to 80% more depending how far away they are....

NCOs raise morale as well does the flag bearer.....you can spawn reinforcements on the flag bearer so it behoves you to keep them safe....if the flag bearer dies someone else needs to pick it up.

Each class has different wepons, but for the most part it is a rifle, a pistol and or bayonet and swords.
