Not many these days.. though I have a large backlog. Still enjoying the hell out of Civ V and Borderlands 2 (I got the latter as a gift late last year) so I look forward to playing the Pre-Sequel.

Paragon this weekend

The Epic MOBA? Are you playing it on PS4 or PC? I'm not experienced with MOBAs but maybe Epic will put its own spin on the genre. Also whatever happened to the upcoming Unreal Tournament game? Last I heard it is still in pre-alpha stage.

PC, I am not overly experienced either, just a little bit of DOTA, I do like the 3rd person game play and its quite a pretty game. I've not tried it with a controller yet but I imagine it will work quite well. Yeah its still Pre-Alpha but definitely playable and quite fun if you enjoyed the original, you can get it from Epic Games Launcher.

Continuing my grind in Slavic Tank Game 3 Armored Warfare.

After this is finished in 30 days, I think I will retire from tank games (for the 3rd time). Next up in my queue is Armello.

Currently on a hiatus from WoW, which is funny because I started a guild like four days before that hiatus. It's probably dead by now.

Other than that it's just been Xbone and PS4. GTAV, Titanfall, FFIV, Division. Depends on the mood I guess.

I wanted to play a new city-building game. And when I checked the clock I was hours into the demo. Gonna be getting this game, but I'm worried I might get addicted.

Looks like a more complicated Sim City. I suck at Sim City lol

Some people say Armello is like if George R. R. Martin wrote Redwall.

I sort of disagree. Even though like in Redwall all your problems have to be
  • stabbed in the face
  • stabbed in the face with magic
  • stabbed in the face by hiring someone to do the stabbing
  • stabbed in the face after political intrigue reveals who or what you should stab in the face,
I don't recall anyone in Game of Thrones that was quite so psychotically hell-bent on pursuing pointless vendettas that only end in both parties dying with little to no benefit.

Then you remember how every* book ended in bloodshed, right? Diplomacy never worked.

*I didn't read the last 3 books, but I have no reason to think they were different.

Oh yeah of course (I was referring to the game though). The books were amazing. The riddles were always my favorite though. I stopped reading right before Triss came out. Might pick the series back up again though and start from the beginning.

I am ashamed to say that Pokémon Go has made its way onto my phone!

It was installed for something fun to do with the kids while we were at the park, but now I have changed my route to work so I can stop off at Pokéstops! It's a crazy addictive little game, and I'm not even a fan of the original Pokémon games!

Yup, same thing happened to my coworker. I've been careful to avoid installing it because I don't have time to play so I can't risk getting sucked into it :\

Yeah I was thinking the same thing too. And then I discovered Factorio. 12 days in, I've spent 60 hours playing. This morning I regretted doing another 5 hour session last night which only seemed like 30 minutes. Now I'm craving the need to do the exact same thing, but totally ignoring any addiction signs.

I have to be careful not to start playing Sid Mieir's Alpha Centauri if there's anything I'm supposed to be doing for the next few hours.

I've made it to the last set of puzzles in Infinifactory, but they've gotten a lot trickier scheduling all the inputs (to come together at the right time and in the right quantity), so I've started Toki Tori 2+ and found that for a "casual" game (unlimited lives), it can be a bit more challenging in places than I expected.
