Computer games.

Enjoying Skyrim so far. Got killed twice by this two hand wielder fairly early on using a mace and shield. Switched to my big two hander and destroyed it with ease. Weird for me that blocking with a 2hander was taking less damage than a shield.
But anyways started again and now and maging it up and melting faces.
 
Finished The Order: 1886 which I picked up on a flash sale. For the life of me I don't know why this game got savaged by critics. The combat and the varied weapons are all really well done, the graphics are great and the QTEs aren't any more numerous than say RE4. Its very good! You should buy it!

I thought the problem with it was it was about 5 minutes long (don't know, haven't played it, don't have a PS4).

Seems most people were happy with what was there, just there wasn't very much of it!
 
Finally a review of Witcher 3 for what it is



I can't believe I gave that view count 1 more hit.

Yes it has bugs, yes it has strange interactions. Seems like he had it made up in his mind before he played it he didn't like it.

It took me ages before I started playing it, and being a big Bethesda fan (playing TES since Daggerfall), and a Fallout fan (not just Bethesda's #3 & #4, but 1 & 2), I thought it would be tough going to play The Witcher 3. No such worry for me. It is brilliant.

Bad troll is bad. As far as I can tell he's just pissed at modern gaming, specifically the 'dumbing down' for casual/console users. It seemed to me that many of his complaints are generic and apply to games in general nowadays, not specifically to that game.

So from the mind numbing fetch quests, middling graphics, clunky combat and dull story-line what would you recommend from this game?

Each to their own mate i just preferred Skyrims story so much better with its even clunkier combat!!

Really impressed with Battlefield having made the switch from Call of Duty.

Maps do their best to give a real sense of its WW1 setting. Even if it does feel a bit like WW2 with all the automatics. Grinding through the assault class to get the Hellriegel. Suprised how well you can do rushing with a trench gun.

Operations is buckets of fun, rushing the sectors and pushing the other team back. Just needs more maps.

A few things that bug me. Had a few cases where my team doesn't do anything or the other team is really really bad. I had a game where literally nobody on my team was playing the objective and I had to quit, it was infuriating. But when both teams give it their all the game is highly enjoyable.

welcome to online multiplayer haha

the old adage, the other team are an elite unit or professional gamers, your team are a bunch of 12 year olds.

For me it was 12 hours. I'm fine with short games as long as they are good.

I grew to hate it. Very linear and claustrophobic and it infuriated me with its constant cut scenes then popping back and making you walk for 30 secs with no interaction with anything then back to another video.

That bloke makes me feel ill with his rambles. Of course the game wasn't going to be perfect.

It's like he spent the whole time playing trying to find problems instead of just enjoying it.

I personally thought it was better than Skyrim (which for me never felt anywhere near as fun to play as Oblivion).
