Ah, fear. Have you tried Metro 2033 or S.T.A.L.K.E.R (with Extreme Graphics Mod)? They had great atmosphere... a nice, cold, isolated, gritty and eery feeling.Quote:

I started it again like 4 times already over the years, but never advanced too far... Maybe i should give it another go...
Fear never did anything for me, but then the fear/scary factor doesn't really apply to me. It's the atmosphere that gets me... i.e., lack of music, and tons of ambient sounds (more psychological) - STALKER was good for that. Metro, yeah, scripted a lot... not much choice.Quote:

Edit: I still need to try that Amnesia.... watched a few videos of it.
I didn't even know that there were mods for it :P But i definitely feel like i should give it another go sometime soon.Quote:

I didn't like it much judging from videos, but since i'm too bored these days, i'll still try it... who knows, maybe it'll be fun... and i've even seen a HUGE monster in one of the gameplay trailers :P
I'm a few hours into Xenosaga 2. The battle system is so shitty compared to the first one. I just hope I can push through without wasting too much time... just get through the awesome plot, and fuck the sidequests. Then, I hear Xenosaga 3 is pure bliss. :)
When it comes to open world games, I find there tends to be mods. Like GTA, Elder Scrolls etc. But after I've installed mods for any game, I can't handle the vanilla install... seems so bland. >.<Quote:

Mh, don't play alot of videogames anymore, sometimes I continue my DayZ character or play Heroes Might and Magic 5 with family or friends. But yea DayZ is always like the journey to your own death.. so for some it may be a frustrating game when they have false prejudices or expectations.
Have you ever played "Shadow of the Colossus"? Big bosses = fun, ALWAYS :DQuote:

But the game's controls are somewhat bad for the PC... and then Lost Planet 2's controls were just too horrible for me to be able to play it.... shame because it has even bigger bosses :(
Seen videos of that, and heard it was released with another game or two in one deal. Still not checked it out -- am I missing out?Quote:

I only have a PC and iPhone that i can play on. We never had consoles and i don't even like those controllers anyway :)Quote:

PC gaming is best, no doubt. Mostly because of the mods, graphics, and free content.... and lack of auto-aim. ^_^ You pretty good at FPS style then, your aim?Quote:

I guess my aim is good enough :P
Haha, there's no getting rid of that good feeling when you own everyone. ^_^ And :thumbup: for hating auto-aim.Quote:

CS + Quake Live. *nods* YES. Though I stopped playing CS after 1.5 -- not a fan of source either... just not right with hitboxes. And I prefer the old engine for its tweaks.Quote:

BUT... turns out it uses Origin, the curse of EA... and there is no way i would pay money to EA. So i guess i have to skip it.
Just started trying to play DayZ yesterday. It was night time and my flashlight wouldn't work sometimes. D: I didn't know were to go to find weapons without being chased by zombies and I didn't know how to escape zombies with out a weapon or one situation with a later which ended with me trapped at the top of a ladder were I bled to death. Seems like it will be a very fun game. :D Any DayZ players wana help me get started with this game. It's suppose to be more fun with a team.
Don't touch Battlefield..... unless you like slow fights. Tons of snipers crouching there for 5 minutes waiting for one kill. >_> I'm good at MW3... easy peasy.Quote:

Ah there you go. You're my arch nemesis . I love intense, quick moving battles.... and then some sniper picks me off from afar. Bastards. They end with about 8 kills, and me 50. Dunno where the fun is... o.o
Exactly why I left it after a few games. But you have to admit, trolling people while being the helicopter pilot is fuckin' hilarious. :DQuote:

But I'm good at it so I don't mind. :content:
@wolfwood, I'm not the 'camper' type of sniper, I move around quite a lot. I have to buy the upgraded pistols though, in CS.
