I did my first quick run of Black Temple on WoW, and the Bulwark of Azzinoth dropped for me. I'm a Death Knight.

I feel kinda bad, now.

**ZergSmasher**

After a huge lack of success while playing Smite I'm starting to conclude that maybe MOBA games are just not for me. And then my teammates either berate or heckle me for lack of skill. Seriously, are all MOBA players donkey-caves? People like that shouldn't be allowed to play video games at all.

**Melissia**

Really can't wait until I finish finals to get back in to planetside 2. Yeah it's flawed and a bit frustrating but it's still good fun.

I need to destress, and kind of started getting bored of Siege and other such games in the past few months.

**Hlaine Larkin mk2**

Dipped my toe into Stellaris, really enjoying it so far

**Co'tor Shas**

More leauge, got to level 18, so I now have keystone masteries. Been playing Twitch, he's super fun.

Also had to wipe my hard drive, so that means re-downloading all my games (on a 100kb/s speed no less). Probably just going to just re-download a few of the more played ones.

Got my origin account fixed too, so I might see if I can do BF4 on my connection. I can get 30 ping on league, so maybe?

Berating and Heckling? Play Hecate, and do both back to them at once!

...sorry, that was a terrible pun.

Yes.

**flamingkillamajig**

Gonna be doing the last mission of xcom 2 tomorrow. Again....

Gotta say this game's appeal has waned significantly faster than 'enemy unknown'. As always end-game is the most boring part with the first 3, 4 or even 5 months being the only critical times. Normally if you make it beyond that it's just cruise control and feels like a brain dead monkey can handle it and not screw it up. Not a bad game though.

A superior repeater with superior ammo and killzone on a sniper are my waifu. Doesn't always go off (instant kill) when you want it to but it's hilarious when it does.

Very much so.

**CragHack**

Warlock 2. Decided that I really want those achievements. Only 5 left now, but I will have to buy a third DLC for those. Sigh.

**Trondheim**

Been playing a lot of Doom today, and last nigth. And Odin have mercy! This game is very good fun, Even if I am a bit annoyed of jumping puzzels at times.

**Ratius**

Is it all 100% pewpew Trondy?
Any other game dynamics to it, even like for boss fights, do you have to figure out any tactics or just keep firing till your ammo runs out?

Well as far as tactics go, well yes, You have to avoid/dodge charges and AoE attacks when dealing with the larger versions of the soldiers of hell. But for the most part yes, I just seem to hold the triggger and drool at the grapical porn that is unfolding at my tv screen, the game looks very, very good. And some of the levels are some of the best I have seen in a game of this type.
But it also has a solid amount of lore, and you are rewarded for exploring and going of the beaten path, granted this is somethign I intend to do more of the next time I am going to play trough this game, As of now I am having too much fun gunning down everything that moves on screen.
Also BFG and Chainsaw makes for an epic combo

**Ratius**

How so with the levels Trondy? Design / feel / locale?

My fear for it is, after a run through, maybe two, its just a pewpewpew fest?

**Trondheim**

The levels are well made and without any sort of hinderance, good variety and nice use of atmospheric effects. Well dunno about that but I have yet to be bored. I recommend it anyhow
Ps : The levels generally mix it up with regards to obstacles and vertical paths to follow

**Sgt. Vanden**

Been playing Heroes of the Storm a lot lately, and holy feth is it different to League of Legends. The no item system is bloody amazing, you can't overdose on salt because there is no 'all chat'. The heroes are amazing, only a little bit grindy, and there is a lot more variation in the Heroes, ie. Cho and Gall. The first Hero I've ever seen to be two player, and they pulled it off amazingly.

I'm currently level 14, so I still have much to learn, but so far, the best MOBA I've ever played.

**Ashiraya**

I used to play it a lot and got to a high hero league rank (rank 6 and it looked promising to go higher) but then the matchmaking system kicked me in the gut and I got a loss streak to rank 17, completely sapping any interest in the game.

I recently picked it up again at a friend's request but it still causes me frustration.

**Necros**

While I wait and wait for Overwatch to get released, I decided to go back and try Wildstar again. I'm really glad they made it free to play, I didn't know that. I bought the game when it first came out, and only played it for about 3 months before I got bored.. didn't think it was worth the monthly subscription, but now that I know its free to play that will fit my casual gaming fix a lot better. I can log in and do a couple of quests here and there, rather than feeling like i have to be in there all the time to get my money's worth.

I decided to start fresh with a brand new engineer named Moohaha SnarfSnarf. Because Chua.

So, after repeated attempts by Blizzard to get me to come back to WoW (damn emails), I caved tonight and signed up for my free 7 days. 33gb install so I don't think I'll be playing before work or anything, but tomorrow...maybe.

Also came back to Diablo 3 recently, started a HC Seasonal character and having some fun - it really is a different game when you're constantly worried about dying.

Finally finished the first campaign for Supreme Commander as well. While the game is pretty good, I don't know, I think the computer cheats.

**Conrad Turner**

Blizz killed my interest in WoW a long time ago. And these days as I rent a room near my job, I don't have the internet connection to play online games anymore anyway.

So I'm going through another character in Fallout 4 in preparation for Far Harbour dropping tomorrow, and even then, I may start another as I haven't tried a Melee specialist yet. Definitely going to have to get in with the railroad for that one.

**Sgt. Vanden**

Just saved enough gold to get Abathur, and holy hell, the game just becomes a bloody tower defence.

Heroes of the Storm is just a gift that keeps on giving. Whoever hasn't played it, I recommend it with all my heart, and to all those who have played it but dropped it, I applaud to retry it, you won't be disappointed.

Also, I've been playing League for four years now, and I've dropped it for Heroes of the Storm. Thats how much I like it.

**Knight**

Gothic. Fun game, although it took me seven ungracious defeats as Eldar before I realised that my ships aren't meant to go one on one.

**gunslingerpro**

Finished Saints Row IV, going to grab some cold brews and enjoy Far Harbor when I get out of work tomorrow.

**EdSnark**

Made a new character for Fallout 4, since I finally got internet access back on my PS4 and thus I finally get to use the season pass I bought on release day. Only level six right now, but I'm super stoked to play through the DLCs, especially since Far Harbor is (supposedly) an hour away from dropping. Helps that I'm off for the next two days so I actually can binge a little bit...

**flamingkillamajig**

As time goes on i find myself interested in playing Act of Aggression again. It was a fun game back in the day but multiplayer just died down to nothing. Late game was absolutely brutal. The titanic battles with explosions everywhere was just phenomenal. As i said though multiplayer died down and then i stopped playing. If i could get a playing group together i'd play it again.

All that aside total war: warhammer is coming out in like 5-6 days and i already pre-ordered so AoA will probably be put on hold.

Also wish i had fallout 4. My computer can't handle it though. I think i'd need more RAM.

Update: 2 games vs hard ai usa computer and lost both. Somewhere around the time they get those stupid nlos (or was it nclos?). Gonna need to use stealth transports with infantry for taking those out or the stealth helos for sniping the nlos.

**ZergSmasher**

Been playing the campaign of the first Dawn of War game. Truly a great game with a great story. This is getting me even more pumped for DOW3!

**Melissia**

Getting a little back in to DC Universe Online, mostly for the Lantern Corps stuff as I've started to get in to that setting more and more. Glad they added red lantern rings for both heroes and villains, it's an intereeting and challenging playstyle.

**Conrad Turner**

Fallout 4: Far Harbour on my PC at home, Injustice: Gods Among Us on my phone. Already galloped through the first challenge section for the new Catwoman challenge.

**BrookM**

We started playing Ark again now that there's a new map out for it. Seeing as my brother is the one hosting the server we've retained our skills and whatnot from the previous sessions, so restarting from scratch isn't all that bad.

We've got a raft with landing deck right now, so we can explore in some peace and safety.

**CragHack**

Life Goes On. A really fun platformer that pretty much focuses on killing your guys and exploiting their corpses later
