What game are you playing right now?

I've been re-playing through The Knife Of Dunwall and The Brigmore Witches (Dishonored DLC) to prepare myself for Dishonored 2.
A little over 3 weeks until it comes out. :-D
 
Been playing Gargoyle's Quest II for the NES lately. Very cool game...mostly a platformer, but looks like an adventure-RPG at some points too.
 
Been playing Xenogears too, but it is taking forever. Over a year of playing it now, and only 40 hours in. Just don't have time for RPGs anymore....
 
Fire Emblem (Rekka no Ken). I'm only on Lyn's story right now and although Sacred Stones is still my favorite right now, the story in this Fire Emblem is already better than the story of Sacred Stones so far. However, I'm only in the beginning so I can't really judge the difficulty yet. Loving it a lot so far.

Legend of Zelda Minish Cap. Haven't went beyond Zelda becoming Stone yet, but I'm loving the art and controls. Can't wait to actually begin the journey.
 
Just bought the Disc version for Game of Thrones.
Finished it last night, but I just learned Ep. 6 was sold seperately.
So I just bought it.
Once it finishes installing I'll be finishing the game. So sad. I've gotten so attached to Mira, Gared, and the others.
 
Dishonored 2

Such an excellent improvement over the 1st game!!!
SO happy with this sequel.
Took me a little bit to get used to the R1, R2, L1 and L2 buttons being assigned differently, but it is awesome.
My first run hasn't been as ghostly or stealthy as I would have liked with Emily, but she's A LOT of fun to play as.
I'll be doing my 2nd more stealthy run with Corvo after I've finished the game with Emily. ;)
 
Dishonored Freaking 2. Suprising or not, you decide, but with only 2hrs of gameplay (and only being on the second mission currently) I can say I definitely love this game way more than the first game. And I loved the first game.

Maybe my view is a bit biased due to me reading the book (which I still haven't had time to finish), but the story is off to a great start. With the first Dishonored, it was mainly the very first scene with Jessamine's Assassination, the betrayal, and the endings that really stuck out to me. You can't realistically know why Corvo wanted revenge as badly as he did without actually looking up the truth through the audiologs from the first game (the fact that he is indeed Emily's Father, which means he was in love with Jessamine). In this game, it's still somewhat the same in terms of stuff like the book or the Brigmore Witches DLC, but without them you can still understand why they do what they do. It's not a purely revenge story like the first Dishonored, and because of that we actually have a good story without the need for reading or listening to audiologs. I didn't know how they could do a legitimate "Dishonorable" event that would make the sequel possible, but the way they did it was spectacular to me personally.

Graphically, the game is freaking beautiful. Especially since I have a Pro and a 4KTV. A big improvement over the first game.

The gameplay is tighter. Idk if this was in the first game, but you can finally defeat enemies non-lethally while in a combat situation, though not recommended when fighting a group. There are a lot of bone charms, lore books, audiologs, and letters in this game. Seemingly even more than the last game. Bloodflies have replaced rats and they encourage very strategic gameplay. Still can't speak on much since I'm not that far in, but I'm lowkey regretting accepting the Outsider's gift. I really feel that Emily's canon playthrough should be without powers and I haven't used her powers beyond the void anyways.

I get what you mean, but my first playthrough with Emily has also been with powers so that I get used to enemy locations and guard posts.
Once I have a good feeling about where guards generally are, then I'll do a no powers run.
I just finished mission 8 of 9, but my next playthrough will be more stealthy and with Corvo.
My first run being Low Chaos but not as stealthy as I'd like seems to fit Emily, as well, given that she doesn't have as much experience as Corvo does.
Bend Time and Possessing people / bodies is going to be fun as hell with Corvo in my next playthrough. ;)
 
i just started Dishonored 2. im playing as Emily first. im still on the first level. i must have killed at least 10-15 people and i saved and it says low chaos. man this game is everything the first one was and more.

Chaos also depends on WHO you kill, as well as how many you kill in Dishonored 2, as well as which factions you help or don't help.
If 6 or 7 of those people were terrible or murderous people, the chaos for those 6 or 7 is worth less than those who are innocent people.
It's awesome, and yeah, it surpassed it by a long shot, imo.

Difficulty has also been ramped up, which I like.

Easy on D2 = Normal on D1.
Normal on D2 = Hard on D1.
Hard on D2 = Very Hard on D1
Very Hard on D2 = No such difficulty level in D1. :laugh:
 
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition (Xbox One)

I know it's only been out since October 28th, but i already have "Played for 72 hrs 23 mins"...
 
I just recently picked up a ps4 pro with a 2 tb hdd installed. I'm excited to see FF15 running on the pro's extra bells and whistles. Hopefully....This game doesn't turn into another FF13 scenario.
