theacademy: I'm a gamer

theacademy 01.01.16	i will use this list as a way to stay accountable to my new year's resolution
theacademy 01.01.16	happy new years guys
anarchistfish 01.01.16	my friends give me a funny look whenever i mention gaming idgaf tho
Tunaboy45 01.01.16	wouldn't have it any other way
theacademy 01.01.16	same, tbh
Satellite 01.01.16	4 maps in the new battlefront. hard to imagine that not getting stale real fast.
Satellite 01.01.16	let me know how 5 is my ps4 collection is lacking in the sports dept
owen 01.01.16	those are some shitty games
anarchistfish 01.01.16	i still haven't got fallout 4, how does it stack up to fallout 3 and skyrim?
Satellite 01.01.16	favorably. the dialogue interface is dumbed down and there are a lot of other nitpicky things you'll see ppl bitching about but it's one of most fun and immersive games i've ever played.
zakalwe 01.01.16	Cassettes in me spectrum, floppy in me Amiga, cartridge in me SNES CDs in me Playstation and Xbox and playing Fallout 4 and having a whale of a time on me ps4. I love the computer game world always have done but I do look at myself as a bit of a sad cunt but hey ho.
zakalwe 01.01.16	I had to google it. Yanks being yanks.
Satellite 01.01.16	nah, MRAs being MRAs
anarchistfish 01.01.16	"THOUGHTS ON GAMERGATE" i don't give a fuck about that shit
zakalwe 01.01.16	MRAs' Had to google it. Im pretty sure when afterburner came out in the 80s bras were burnt, the liberal intelligentsia were holding symposiums on the degradation of liberal freedoms and society as a whole was basically edging towards the precipice. I got the high score. It was cool!
Spec 01.01.16	NHL 16 is awesome agreed.
anarchistfish 01.01.16	MRAs are some of the most dumbest most immature people on the planet
Satellite 01.02.16	true, but their celibate, doritos dust-laden existence ensures that they won't pass their genes on to the next generation. some problems take care of themselves.
Asdfp277 01.02.16	gamergate lmao feminism lmao mra lmao
voltairesangryglove 01.02.16	speaking of perpetual virginity, Asdfp277 is here everyone!
theacademy 01.02.16	sup satty sup spec sup my other dudez
anarchistfish 01.02.16	i'm tempted to get dark souls but i feel like it's the kind of game that would drive me insane
zakalwe 01.02.16	It's the greatest game of them all if you have the patience
Satellite 01.02.16	@fish yeah that was my concern, too. it's super fucking addicting tho. just get it, i'm sure it's like $10 used at this point.
Tunaboy45 01.02.16	Patience is required for dark souls but there's nothing quite like defeating your first boss and realising the hard work paid off... only to get crushed by the next boss
anarchistfish 01.02.16	i mean it looks awesome and beautifully dark but i have no patience. difficult gameplay ain't really my thing
anarchistfish 01.02.16	"@fish yeah that was my concern, too. it's super fucking addicting tho. just get it, i'm sure it's like $10 used at this point." it's £5 but I've already spent soooo much on steam the last week. i bought mass effect again ffs the witcher 2 has gotta be a must buy at £2 tho and that sounds more up my alley even tho i'm not a huge fan of fantasy
zakalwe 01.02.16	Best avoid it then but you'll be missing out and your obviously not a gamer!!
anarchistfish 01.02.16	i'm not a huge gamer no i'd take a non linear story based game over a challenging game any day
Satellite 01.02.16	i was just playing me1 recently. the conversation w/ sovereign is still one of my alltime favorite gaming moments.
ZombicidalMan 01.02.16	alien isolation is amazing, and really the only recent game I can say will become one of my all time favourites
theacademy 01.02.16	this isba thread for gamers
Tunaboy45 01.02.16	I got Alien Isolation on the 360 when it came out, got pretty far into it but never got round to finishing it.
anarchistfish 01.02.16	mass effect has such an hp lovecraft vibe to it once the reapers come into play. love that mystery of the first game as the story unfolds. mass effect and fallout 3 basically ruined gaming for me for like 4 years
Tunaboy45 01.02.16	mass effect 2 was the peak
Satellite 01.02.16	i always let ashley die. no place on my normandy 4 racists.
Mystletainn 01.02.16	Wtf kind of thread is this
anarchistfish 01.02.16	"mass effect 2 was the peak" ME1 and ME2 are both p much perfect.
zakalwe 01.02.16	Mass Effect was one of the best as well. All the spiel from the first one bears relevance in the third one. I don't care what people say indoctrination was happening. Red was the way forward.
Satellite 01.02.16	"mass effect 2 was the peak" agreed. the gameplay in 3 is better but things fall apart at the very end. i played 3 again for the first time in years recently, and if you pretend that the extended cut was there all along it's tolerable at least. the idea of shepard being haunted by the death of a single twerp child is fucking dogshit tho. also 2 has the best dlc of any game ever.
anarchistfish 01.02.16	idk how Andromeda is gonna match up to the trilogy tbh. do we know if it's a stand alone game or a new trilogy?
Tunaboy45 01.02.16	If there's one game I've played recently that has potential to be an all time favourite, it's MGS V.
Satellite 01.02.16	i'm sure it's meant to be a trilogy because money. also they're introducing a new galaxy and that would be a lot to burn through in a single game.
Tunaboy45 01.02.16	Fingers crossed it's not a turd
zakalwe 01.02.16	A galaxy without Tali will be soulless.
Tunaboy45 01.02.16	Tali and Miranda, then it's a party
Satellite 01.02.16	i think it's set much further in the future so tali is long dead. it'd be cool to see an old man wrex or matriarch liara tho. that said, i hope they're not too reliant on callbacks to the original series.
Tunaboy45 01.02.16	I didn't play Inquisition but from what I've heard it's good
Satellite 01.02.16	also new deus ex looks neat
anarchistfish 01.02.16	"also they're introducing a new galaxy and that would be a lot to burn through in a single game." true. it's got a hell of a lot to live up to, especially since it's p much gonna be a totally new set of characters and settings. I'm intrigued and a little nervous to see what they do with it since mass effect is basically my favourite game series ever
anarchistfish 01.02.16	i only played like 2 hours of human revolution. i'd give it another go but my brother won't let me take the 360 from my parents' house even though he never plays it lol
Sinternet 01.02.16	My Tali and Garrus squad wrecked shit up But then again if they were to reintroduce old characters they'd have to be minor parts or the whole game would be overshadowed by the previous trilogy as opposed to being a new storyline
Tunaboy45 01.02.16	Human Revolution was good, MD looks good also we'll just have to wait and see
zakalwe 01.02.16	Far too much time has been invested in the greatest characters ever to grace the gaming screen to just bin 'em. No Garrus? What will my fem shep do in her cabin now? Flick her bean watching the fish tank?
Satellite 01.02.16	hr is good overall, but the boss battle are beyond stupid. detracts from a game that's supposed to be smarter than "it's time to blow up the bad guy now."
Satellite 01.02.16	the player character isn't shepard. it's like several centuries after the original series.
anarchistfish 01.02.16	yh i'm gonna miss liara and garrus, and settings like omega and the citadel
anarchistfish 01.02.16	what's dragon age like? it's bioware so i have to give it a try but i've never really been into medieval fantasy
Satellite 01.02.16	hopefully they do a citadel-type space station that's biggerer and betterer
Tunaboy45 01.02.16	let's have some choices with actual consequences this time as well, without going overboard
CicatrizESP 01.02.16	list sucks cept alien
Satellite 01.02.16	^ what didn't you like about nhl 16?
Mystletainn 01.02.16	It's a football game
Gameofmetal 01.02.16	"what's dragon age like? it's bioware so i have to give it a try but i've never really been into medieval fantasy" first game is like world of warcraft for console, combat isn't great but there's some good story telling, lore and characters in there. 2nd game improved the gameplay and graphics while severely limiting the scope of the game and quite literally reuses dungeons. vastly inferior. thought the new game would be the best and it certainly seems that way at first but i burned out on it real quick. still haven't come close to beating it. all the side content is underdeveloped and when you play a game like the witcher 3 where even the smallest side quest is a wonder to experience, it just doesn't perform.
anarchistfish 01.02.16	cheers. yeah witcher 3 sounds v interesting but my pc can't run it so i'll settle for witcher 2 for now. got morrowind as well which sounds really cool despite its age
IAmWarhol 01.02.16	I`ve been getting into PS1 games lately. Thinking of starting up a small let`s play channel just for older, obscure, and horror titles.
anarchistfish 01.02.16	what's star wars TOR like? I've never played an MMO before
Gameofmetal 01.02.16	i havent been a fan of mmo's since i used to drool over wow when i was 13. i think a lot of people were disappointed in it
anarchistfish 01.02.16	i have no idea how they work tbh
theacademy 05.06.17	so i played 1, 5, 6, 7 (platted 6) got bored of 4 and 3 still havent put 2 in my ps4
theacademy 05.06.17	1 was definitely the best here
