Act 1? The game doesn't actually really start till Act 2 after the hotel Took me a little time to grab me TBH, but once I was free roaming in act 2 I've not looked back
This just came back on sale on Steam and it reminded me of the exchange we had above after this original post. Just been wetting myself, not so much at the sheer lunacy of the 40K universe, but the complete lack of seriousness with which we all take it.
Did you ever try Space Hulk: Ascension i got it by error when wanting the tactics version. Its not bad feels more like the board game and the little cam i. Top is fun reminds me of the old school games. Ive got hours with the Space Hulk game so annoyed i owned the board game as a kid n gave it away its worth a fiar bit now days. And ive been into WH for 32 years and i find it funny when people take it serious.. or try too.. yes the 10ft bright yellow armoured man will be awesome at a stealth mission... i find joy in how stupid it is when you look at it as a whole.. how can we stop the nids invading... blow up the planet... @adidan I downloaded CP on my Ally and i must of been chapter 2 i got burnt out at as jackies gone.. i always assumed that was a prolouge kinda thing but makes more sense its chapter 1.
Haven't had this one yet, I don't think. I've got Deathwing but need to rebuild my rig before I can think of loading that one up. Got a major unknown issue with it that I just don't have time to figure out at the moment. It is worth HEAPS (if ebay is anything to go by)! Sorry to rub it in. I gave all my Epic scale away for a song and still regret it, so I am in the same boat, sadly. I always found Space Hulk far too one-sided. At best, no-one was learning anything from any missions - "Tactical Dreadnought Armour" might as well be called "Pretty-looking Cumbersome Palettes for Cool Artwork" for all the bl00dy good it seemed to do. All the weapons either jammed or burnt your own squad/sealed off your only route through and all the bl00dy corridors could only fit one bloke down at a time! Not exactly going in in force, there. Better off sending in automated solutions like ACTUAL dreadnoughts/servitors or whatever would fit. And then you got a team of five vs blips that could turn over five per go! I have been hitting up some Dawn of War II lately, though. Which is also hilarious - have a massively overpowered lead dude who gets through more baddies than my entire weakling assault squad. Who last about five minutes despite being mega-armoured superhumans with five foot chainsaws and rocket packs. I am however waiting for the day they release a proper, full epic scale "Total War" effort, with Titans and all sorts. The GW lore is fantastic and all the background just points to something Total Planetary Annihilation-like. And I want drop-pods and orbital barrages. And whilst we're at it, a global online thing like Helldivers has, but where you can choose to be in space or on the ground (I'm sure there was a cross-platform, maybe PC/PS3 game a while back that tried this, tied in with each other but different versions - like playing COD alongside Battlefleet Gothic in a combined universe...can't remember what it was called...maybe Frontlines?). Can only hope...
Around 500 hours sunk into Dune Awakening, but haven't had enough time last couple weeks. And I have Borderlands 4 to start, but same problem!
1-0 by fix-the-spade posted 16 Sep 2025 at 13:48 Decided to play some BF3 on a whim. It was a GREAT game and I'd forgotten how much fun BF3 can be.
I want them do a star wars empire at work esk game. Space rts and lans rts. With hero units a galactic map to take over. It was awsome. Not aged well but in a 40k setting it would be amazing. We had the dawn of war 4 annoucement. Lets see what happens with that. I need to pick up the DOW remaster bur ive seen mixed reports i keep waiting for somone i know to play it. I started 40k with epic minis so i crave those kind of games. I keep pushing at cyberpunk i had to restart a save as i let somone die i shouldnt off and locked myself out of content
XCOM: Enemy Unknown. I don't have much time to game so progress has been slow, but it is moving forward.
You've got better resolve than myself when it comes to XCOM time management. It's the game of 'Just one more encounter and... I should've been in bed 2 hours ago.' for me.
Having finished with Infamous Second Son, I've gone onto Red Dead Redemption 2, and boy is it good! The story really gets going mid way into chapter 2. It is a slow burner and as long as you haven't the average Gen Z attention span and can stick to it, it'll reward you.
Think it's fair to say I've got a bit of a soft spot for that game... Though it won't be too long before that's overtaken... ~70hrs in with my current save, and I haven't done everything yet - haven't even finished Phantom Liberty... But... for context... I've had XCOM:EU/EW for almost 12 years: Whereas I've only had CP2077 for just over 4.5 years... That made me curious... so I did some "back of a cigarette packet an Excel spreadsheet" maths... because I'm a data engineer and this kinda stuff is my bread and butter, so even though it's a weekend I can't help myself... I have played XCOM for the equivalent of 45 minutes a week for every single week since I purchased it. I have played Cyberpunk 2077 for the equivalent of 1 hour and 45 minutes a week for every single week since I purchased it. So... I think it's fair to say that my 'soft spot' is a lot 'softer' for CP2077 than it is for XCOM:EU/EW.
Not quite what im playing but wanted to see Vrising ?? After a new game as got a £20 voucher somewhere this has been on my wish list a while. That or any recomendations ? Just wanting rpg game
Clair Obscure gets good reviews. I've only just started the tutorial though, so not sure if it fits or not.
This looks good RPG covers quite a wide load of games, Lies of P, souls like rpg Granblue fantasy relink, more trad FF type rpg game, though a bit tighter in terms of time.
I've been playing Last of Us Part 2, bit late to the party on it, always meant to pick it up on PlayStation but preferred playing Last of Us Part 1 on PC all maxxed out etc, so decided to wait, then when it did drop it my TV broke so I lost my monitor to the front room whilst I waited for the LG G5 to drop, so more waiting as I wanted to see it in all its HDR glory. With everything in place now I am finally in and its everything I had hoped for, well told story, good set pieces, excellent atmospheric audio, loving it, if it wasn't for the game/nvidia insisting on enabling DLSS FG every bloody time, I don't need to see 3-400fps with degraded IQ (grass shimmers on FG, looks crap) for feck sake with just let me have it native and awesome, grr, each time I boot its turned back on again....aaarrggh. So late to the party on this the game is actually being given away on PS plus this week
I didnt click with Clair Obscura, i must be in the minority, i was looking for a game to play on my handheld pc this weekend, i just completed ff vi pixel remaster. Was playing silk Song but its a little to intense for me to relax to, ill watch more reviews on V rising, i have loads of older games like high on life, star wars lego (new one) ive filtered the site to less thsn £20.
Actually, you could, if you have enough spare time to make the most of it, use £15 to get a month's Game Pass Ultimate (or just the PC version) and try a bunch of games out/play them through.
I had xbox live but when my microsoft account that id had years got stolen, the level of support i got despite the fact they where taking money out my bank each month, i never give them a penny if i can avoid it! It was a beyond shocking despite having 2fa ect. I ended up calling bank blocking payment then they wanted to help.... Thanks for the suggestion thou man, i had uplay pluss and tried a fair few sub services
