You're right, but it still needs repeating. On that list the only good one is Just Cause.

I love that The Bore is such a welcoming community, where people are free to be wrong.

Thief is supposedly pretty great, except 'fridging a woman in the opening movie to gain male revenge rage points.

Massive Chalice is pretty neat, for a game which ceded ground to an angry transgender community which complained about their lack of representation in a medieval breeding simulation.

Massive Chalice is already up.

Anybody playing Massive Chalice? Hadn't followed the game at all. I like the concept but I have no idea what I'm doing or the proper way to breed people and such.

I backed it, but haven't played it yet. $:-\$

My wife's got the only Windows machine in the house, and it's a Gateway which was outdated from the minute it hit shelves, doubly so by the time it reached her desk. Upgrading memory and graphics has not saved it. But I need to give Chalice a go.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #135 on:** June 10, 2015, 01:22:29 AM »

I dig Massive Chalice. It's probably not hardcore enough for most of you guys who fall into the final fantasy tactics vein, but I enjoy it. Even though I've probably fucked myself on this first playthrough by fucking up things early.

edit: Yeah I'm fucked. I'm restarting. Ain't even mad about it.

What'd you do?

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #137 on:** June 10, 2015, 03:33:02 AM »

A number of things.

I didn't build enough keeps early on. I started building other stuff to help my solider on the battlefield.
I build a sagecraft early and started sticking old people in there which reduced my available soldiers.
Accidentally married two young dudes and with horror realized I would have to wait the 70 years for them to die and replace them so no kids unless I kept adopting them.
Consequently started massively running out of people since I had almost no people being born to replace the ones who were dying of old age and combat. Which also means I couldn't pass down the weapons in the family since there was no next generation for some of the houses.

So I just said fuck it, instead of trying to dig myself out of this hole, just restart and plan better.

Don't forget, Valiant Hearts: The Great War & The Walking Dead are free on Xbox One, and The Walking Dead (Xbox 360) (all episodes) is free on the 360. (copypasta'd and grammar corrected from TrueAchievements.com)

I meant more the xbox one stuff. Dirt 3 is fine. I beat Dungeon Siege 3 along time ago. It's mediocre. Potentially worth it if you play with a friend but no way in hell I could drag myself through it alone.

At least the 360 stuff are usually actual retail games. The xbox one offerings tend to be a dumping ground for indie titles no one would actually buy.

Dragon Rising is a turd. But if it's still got that "explore the island" DLC (

at a mil-sim DLCing that) it's worth picking that up and then just flying around the island for literal hours instead of playing the ultra bad campaign.

Take it from someone that Platinumed it on PS3.

Van Helsing is okay. I'd be willing to play that but I heard nothing but awful things about Thief.

The second Operation Flashpoint: Red River I liked. But that is the first one which I didn't like.
Castlestorm I actually like but its basically a mobile title.
And Sacred 2 is good but I also heard nothing but awful about Sacred 3.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution is such a great game! So much fun getting the 1000/1000. I might buy the DLC after all these years as it looks to have been discounted also.

Yup. And it fits in nicely with the game. They castroid you at the beginning, so you can try out a completely different build if you like. But I think there's an achievement tied to not picking up any augments.

I like Sacred Citadel; I had no idea it was associated with the Sacred series of RPG games. Color me thick.

I tried GoW2 at one point; the camera made me sick, which never happens in third-person perspective games.
