    What else are you playing right now?

    I watched a youtube video about Deus Ex recently and it made me want to go back and play Invisible War. This game is pretty much universally hated because of the dumbing down direction it took from Deus Ex, but I really feel that if this game had ditched the Deus Ex 2 it would have been much more well received. It's really a hidden gem IMO.

     

    So anyway, I'm playing through it again. It's currently $0.97 on gog.com right now

    There's a texture upgrade, resolution fix and widescreen all in one file at the TTLG forums

     

    Deus Ex 2: Invisible War: $0.97

    It's just talking in circles about stuff for which we have no real data, everyone just keeps trying to find conspiracy thoeries and ulterior motives, when in reality it's just another pirated game that might live for decades or die tomorrow.

     

    I get that plenty of people like to talk in circles though...

    Indeed they do especially on this forum

    Actually, yeah NCSoft deciding to shut down private servers would mean the "end of the world" for CoH. Because they would be in the right, and they could take legal action against all those private servers. The code being "in the wild" doesn't mean CoH is untouchable. I'm really hoping Homecoming manages to get the rights from NCSoft, or at least get made official by the company. But I'm under no illusions that the game isn't at risk until that happens.

     

    People thought emulation of NES and SNES games was safe because the roms were "in the wild". But Nintendo managed to shut down every non-sketchy rom sharing site I'm aware of. Keep that in mind when you start thinking the code being "in the wild" means CoH is safe.

    Nah, private servers really can't be stopped at this point. You try to shut one down another one will just pop up. Look at Star Wars Galaxies and WoW they've had private servers for years.

     

    Oh and I literally googled SNES roms, clicked the first link and downloaded Donkey Kong Country in less than a minute.

    Civilisation 6 is my main go to for a game that always keeps me playing. Seriously, the phrase "one more turn" will be etched on my gravestone 😄

     

    There are a few games on Steam I got that I want to get around to playing.....well, I say a few....oh gods, there are so many 😞

     

    Just bought Evoland 2 on the latest Steam sale, need to get started on that, but, you know......badges 😄

     

     

    The civ series was one I could never get into. I never heard of Evoland, but it looks fun. Thanks for mentioning it!

    Conan Exiles has my attention at the moment, and a friend suggested that if I like that, I might also like No Man's Sky.  So yesterday I downloaded and started playing NMS for a few hours.

     

    How do you like it? It never really interested me in the E3 trailers, and when it came out and was reviewed poorly I trusted my instincts. I know its been overhauled though.

    Besides City of Heroes of course. Because if you're reading this you better be playing city of heroes....

     

    Currently I've never finished Fallout 4 and I'm in the middle of that. I kind of don't want it to ever end so I've been holding off on finishing the story.

     

    I'm also a big fan of Dead by Daylight and I try to get some time in with it when I can.

    So here's the deal with these types of threads: the HC team could post a word for word breakdown of every single thing they did in the course of a day. They could post hour by hour updates. They could post a novel every day detailing every single thought they had ever had about planning to do anything in the future with HC and these types of threads would still be here.

    I can play City of Heroes blindfolded. With my forehead.

    I'd have to slightly agree about the Incarnate stuff making the game easy.  You get a character that has T4 everything Incarnate, fully ATO'ed out, they can blaze through pretty much everything solo.  But it takes some work to get there, even if you are power-leveling through the grind.  

     

    But we have a choice.  For example, I choose not to go through with all of the Incarnate material because I'm already pretty powerful.  So...for the most part, I skip it.  I'd rather spend my time leveling up another character that I enjoy playing.  Because that's what I like doing.  To each their own.

    I thought that was the entire point of the incarnate system, to be powerful. Otherwise, it's just the equivalent of a lame level cap increase.

    Not using those exact words, no.  The term "lack of" generally means missing or a lack of something, which in the case of AoE and MA is false.  MA has an AoE with Dragons Tail, so saying it is "lacking AoE" is a bit of a misnomer.  It stands to reason that someone saying the set lacks AoE when it has an AoE in it, it would mean the person is looking for more AoE.  Not difficult to understand.

    You'd think that but clearly it indeed is difficult to understand.

    Yes, the person is obviously looking for more AoE. Your original comment attempts to induce the expectation that he wants the set to be "full of AoE."

     

    I have no idea what your definition of "full of AoE" is, but it's your own opinion and was never expressed or defined by the individual you singled out.

    And yet the criticism was expressly said to be a lack of AoE.  It seems to me if one is looking for a lot of AoE damage, they would have chosen something other than a set designed to be for single target.

    He didn't say "a lot of AoE damage" either.

    It's pretty cool how you can drop the macro command in a chat and people can just copy and paste it, get a instant button, hop over to your base from wherever they are and explore.

     

    I've seen some awesome transit hubs, night clubs, mazes and little towns that people have made that I otherwise wouldn't have if I had to remember a passcode, transport over to a base portal and enter it manually.

     

    It will be a shame when its gone.
