Looks nice, the game still manages to capture that cinematic quality.

Right, ME: Andromeda is more famous for its cinematic quality than any other game.

That is why I had it removed with mods.

Peebee and Suvi's voices are really good, Christine Lakin and Katy Townsend did really great job.

It is like long movie... for now I played already MEA longer than original trilogy together, and still not done with the game.

Just finished with last priority mission in MAE. Last mission was long and hard to finish, but fun. Now to complete rest of challenges ... but what a story...

They managed to surprise me couple of times @ end... and I am still missing part of story that was planted for potential DLC.

Now time to pick something new...

Last couple of days I played Elite Dangerous and Alien: Isolation. Was thinking what great game would be if those 2 would be combined into the same game.

BTW, how awesome is to see your character die over and over and over... just for pure purpose of fun...

I have been playing Path of Exile for the last maybe 2 weeks or so. I must admit that it is a nice action RPG. Keep playing it. When I need certain amount of Exalted Orbs for the game I usually get it here https://overgear.com/games/poe/exalted-orbs.

I've been playing Thimbleweed Park. It's not a bad game but somehow it just doesn't really get me like a Monkey Island would. But that might just be my dislike for adventure games where you have to control different characters to solve puzzles, they give me a head ache. Most of the jokes in the game are quite meta and 4th wall breaking which is only truly funny when they hit you when you least expect them. As they are, they tend to fall a little flat.

What I do like about the game is the logical puzzle design in general; it basically encourages you to be a detective. If you make note of objects, people and locations and keep track of what you've already used, then there is little reason to ever really get stuck at any point not knowing what to do as you can just check your list and see what you've not used yet and see what matches a situation you're currently facing.

With the exception of one or two puzzles which... are not exactly supported by science. The game's solution to steaming off a stamp from an envelope is outlandish enough that even with my detective list of items it just did not occur to me to try it.

I guess you've fixed your GPU?!

At the moment playing some Elite Dangerous... tho more likely will stop very soon when I decide what is next game I like to play.

Just got FF VIII on XGP, and Imperator Rome in HBC, which I wanted to play after watching some quill18 youtube videos...


On quick breaks playing 12 Labours of Hercules VI... fun little games...

Got a slight improvement,

but they exceed my price point.

Dunno about Sexy, but they were a part of her.
