That Other Video Game Thread

Oh hey! The final of the Genroku Legends DLC for Muramasa Rebirth is coming out in Japan next week. I'm really happy to see the side storylines come to a close, albeit a little sad about it as well as it's been one hell of a ride with Vanillaware. The DLC's all been really excellent and Muramasa is one of my all-time favorite games.



Dat folklore. Dat adorable oni.

So I just got me a nifty desktop (Been using laptops for years) and this one is super special and fast. Does anyone have any good PC games they recommend? I have a PS4, so nothing that goes between consoles.
I like horror, shooter and RPG types.

RPGs come in a variety of shades, so I'm not too sure what you're looking for. JRPGs? cRPGs? Strategy? Action? A smidgen of a roguelike? There's just so many! So, here's what I'll suggest: The Witcher, The Witcher 2, The Banner Saga, Crusader Kings II, Nuclear Throne, Dungeons of Dredmor, Legend of Grimrock, Shadowrun Returns.

Orus

Divinity: Original Sin as well.

There's my games list. What should I play next? I have very little time to play, typically.

I seriously am stoked about this game beyond all belief. It's a nice demo from PAX and has some issues (hang ups occasionally with the sound), but it's coming along so nicely.

Serrice

... is anyone planning on getting Destiny? >_>

Hadrak

I'd certainly like to, but it's a bit out of my range right now. I'll be getting a PS4 for Bloodborne and Persona 5 (lol, its out on PS3, but w/e) but that'll be around January at the earlier for me. Bloodborne has a February release in Japan, so probably a May release in the US at the latest for its localization.

Hit me up in 5 months, ty.

Serrice

I don't know if it'll be cross platform unfortunately. I only have a 360, and I'm not really willing to upgrade to a One just for one game.

Hadrak

Ah, yeah, I'm not sure if it is cross-platform (is it even cross-gen? servers--it seems like it would be, but stranger things have happened)

PC MASTER RACE.

OKay so- Sims 4. Anyone played it yet? What are the opinions of the game?

"Why is this so awful?"

The excitement builds ever further.

What Hadrak said. They took a -lot- of stuff out of Sims 4 that came with previous versions of Sims 4 - to the extent that it is fairly boring. Just stick to Sims 3, I say.

Aren

I've been playing the Telltale games. Walking dead series and Wolf among us. I highly recommend them!

Hadrak

Wolf Among Us was amazing.



Just that main menu music. DAMN.

edit: when does it come out?

Ashmer

@Hadrak: You've now gotten me super unicorns, ponies and rainbows excited for Darkest Dungeon.

Hadrak

This TGS is absolutely badass.















And even more to come later today, tomorrow, and Saturday. Good god.

Hadrak

And Atlus has a nice reveal day on stage, hooray for that Break Record update. TGS delivering like crazy with like 90 MGSV gameplay previews too. I am digging this year a lot.

Toz

New Super Smash Bros. demo downloaded. Yaaaaaay, except Gannondorf isn't on the lineup so I'm this weird mix of happy and sad.

Hadrak

Ganondorf is gonna be unlocked through one of the modes and he's still a clone (why do you hate fun Sakurai), but I am glad to see him back in the game.
