Remember Me. I'm about halfway through.

It's... flawed. Gameplay is average, but the story is interesting enough to keep me engaged, and it looks bloody gorgeous.

Re: What are you playing right now?
after googling and console-commanding my way past game-breaking bugs, finally moving forward again in skyrim.  that'll teach me to explore around instead of sticking straight to the main quest again.  :banghead:

still one side-quest bug unresolved, and it still really bothers me because i'm the type that has to complete ALL the things.
I like to stare at the sun.

 
Re: What are you playing right now?
Ah, the console command, defeater of more bugs than the Dragonborn.

Let me tell you about one time an ice wraith got stuck under the ground while my two (quest required) followers waltzed around on the surface. Had to use Aura Whisper and then click around in console view to select it before sending a kill command. Fun times.

Re: What are you playing right now?
I played it for a while back some months ago.  Its fun and I really enjoyed the mobility of its meta.  The Bruiser and Infiltrator where my favorite platforms.  That said like most real multi only games I typically just play them till I hone my edge then take a break for a while.  I'll get back into it at some point but for now I'm focused on WALB.

I'm still bouncing between Starbound, GTA V, Warframe, L4D2, and now Terraria (1.2.3.1 is out)
Oh and Planetside 2 as well as Space Engineers

Got starbound, and I'm really liking it so far.  It's like Terraria, except (generally) streamlined and with better controls. 
If you don't have Knossos, you need it.

Re: What are you playing right now?
Starbound is pretty awesome in regards to controls. Much easier to get used to again after not playing for a while.

But yeah I clocked ridiculous amounts of time into Starbound. When I start playing it, I don't stop until at least another 100 hours gets clocked

Re: What are you playing right now?
I have also been putting a ridiculous amount of time into Starbound. My current character just unlocked Tier 9 materials, which is the farthest I've ever bothered to progress before.

Re: What are you playing right now?
Really? I generally get to Tier 10 pretty quickly, within one to two days usually

With that said, most of my time is spent planet hopping and cruising with bubble boost looking for shinies
My gun collection is starting to get out of hand

(Emphasis added.)

It's not that I had difficulty doing it, just that I lost interest after hitting Sector X. After you kill the jelly boss, there are no more bosses; everything else is just kinda samey-samey after that, and that's when my characters generally got abandoned; after this most recent wipe was the only time I felt the motivation to actually explore Sector X.

Gundam Extreme Vs Full Boost

Pretty much more of the same but with MORE MOBILE SUITS.

And they remixed the final boss theme. This is almost too epic for words:
"You need to believe in things that aren't true. How else can they become?" -DEATH, Discworld

"You can fight like a krogan, run like a leopard, but you'll never be better than Commander Shepard!"

Re: What are you playing right now?
Still playing Hawken.
It is funny, although I'm not being that good, I notice new player right away. Several of them have problems with the fast pacing compared to Mechwarrior, but hey, it is quit refreshing to burst into a group of heavy, turreted down mechs and blast them to pieces :D
