The "What are you playing now?" Thread

[Jack Brickman]

Just finished it, and i'd put the main quest more or less on par with the bloody baron questline in the original. Writing is incredible, as you would expect.

Good to hear. I haven't played it yet but I'm looking forward to it. Probably will fire it up this weekend since it was my birthday last weekend and my liver could use this one off.

EA just announced the DLC Season Pass for Battlefront. Fifty dollars for the season pass.

Congrats, EA. You turned the game from a game I was going to buy to me saying fuck you in one simple announcement.

Are you serious? That always pisses me off. It's why I barely play Battlefield 4 because I don't have access to 90% of the maps. I think it was Bad Company 2 that you got all the maps with the premium edition which was 60 bucks new on release day.

I wasn't going to get Battlefront on release day anyway, but now I'm definitely going to have to wait awhile.

They need to bring back pre order premium editions for their games. No incentive to pre order any more. Or even buy for some people. They are creating a lot of ill-will.

Yeah, man. Look it up. Fifty bucks for the season pass.

Fuck that.

Yeah. Battlefront was fun. But im not buying it.

 

[Walter White]

If they made the season pass like 20-25 bucks, I might consider it. 80 bucks is much easier to swallow for a game than 110+.

Add ons are one thing, releasing half a game for another $60 is another(I'm looking at you CoD). I'm not going to be suckered it that shit.

Overwatch being streamed on Twitch right now. Looks pretty interesting. Beta in a couple weeks.

Wait. what?

Fifty dollars for maps?

And by season pass, that doesn't mean it's a seasonal pass like it expires do they? Lol, that would be amazing..

Fifty bucks gets you three or four map packs. Nothing expires though. I think it's sixty if you buy them all individually. You only get all the packs for fifty if you buy up front.

I'm going to wait a year when you can get the game and all the packs for like 50-60 bucks. Or maybe they will have good deals at Christmas but I doubt that low.

Really late to the game on these, but I've been playing Thomas Was Alone and Shovel Knight lately on my Wii U. If anyone is in need of a change up I highly recommend them as good reminders that simple, yet challenging games are still great in a current gaming climate worried about bigger worlds and more complex graphics.

So here's why Destiny was such poop at launch. Basically, they threw out their story a year before launch.

Played a Halo game for the first time in years. Brought me back to my childhood. From 4 player splitscreen on Halo 1 and 2 with my cousins to staying up till 430am playing custom maps on Halo 3 with my friends. Nostalgia hit me so hard I'm going to buy an Xbone and the MCC when I get the money.

I'm probably 60-70% of the way to fully completing Watch Dogs. I still haven't touched the Witcher 3.
