What Games Are You Playing While Waiting for Runemaster?

[Empress Matilda]

Never completed it either but thats mostly because I never join every faction or do every quest with 1 character. I've learnt never to pick up the Unusual Gems.
On the other hand I loot places of everything that will fetch a Septim. Even at 50+ level with more money than I can spend I still end up staggering homewards very slowly due to all the cast iron pots and kettle I refuse to leave behind.

I hate that quest so much. It's always just there in my log, taunting me.

There's a mod that helps you find them. Can't remember its name now, but it should be easy to find on the Steam Workshop.

Yeah, I know, but then I just have a bunch of quest markers all over Skyrim. Also annoying. I'm sure one day I will complete that quest. Never have since launch.

That is pretty much me as well. I never leave behind anything...

Team Fortress 2 (PC)
Phoenix Wright series (DS)
The World Ends With You (DS)
Pokemon Red (GB)
Metal Gear Solid 4 (PS3)

You know, any good game that isn't just some overrated grey and brown shooter. (Call of Duty, Halo, etc.)

My wife suffered from this in Fallout 3/New Vegas; she picked up literally every bent tin can and empty nuka cola bottle in the wasteland on a crazed quest to clean it up. I managed to break the spell by Skyrim though, I only took things that were worth anything and left all the junk behind (although if Skyrim were real, my character would be seriously overweight based on the fact I ate anything edible that I couldn't be bothered to carry back home).

Dovakhin has a way of staying underweight. Something involving CHIM. Heard Tiber Septim did it as well and look at him!

But all the exercise should actually keep you fit!

If Halo looks grey and brown to you, you should get your monitor checked out. It's fair to not like it, but grey and brown is an odd criticism of it.

Get the fat bastard mod to improve immersion.

Though something did just click when you pointed this out. Fallout 3 and New Vegas have significantly less junk to pick up than Skyrim for the most part. Considering the different settings this seems a bit odd to me. Wouldn't the ruins of a society have more junk than a society that's functioning fairly fine and is poised to be liberated from a failing bureaucracy?

I started playing an older game with a tablet port which has some similarities to CK2. It's called King of Dragon Pass, set in that weird Runequest world your college buddy was always trying to get you to play. The CK2 similarities are in clan/tribal relationships and watching the personalities of your nobles and Circle develop over time. The real meat of the game comes when you navigate the storytelling decisions (similar to the event chains of CK2 or what I imagine Runemaster may wind up like.)

Never played a game quite like it. Having a lot of fun!

 

[Wenla]

King of Dragon Pass was/is one of my (rare) favourite games. Do you mean that you can get it as tablet (Android) version? If yes, I absolutely get it!

 

[Empress Matilda]

KoDP is a great game, only helped by being set in my favourite fantasy rpg setting.

I agree, one thing that made the orignal Halo(s) stand out so much when they were released compared to other shooters of the time was, IMO, the use of quite saturated colors, not commonly used in FPS-games... like purple, green and pink. If you compare that to, say, CoD1 or Perfect Dark, or some other shooter from the area, the other are definitely more "grey" ( ' -')b

I'm currently playing Persona 3.. odd JRPG from a couple of years back. Really good actually.
But not while waiting for the game,.. but while working on the game : D (Not at the sime time though : p)

I've been messing about with Legends of Eisenwald recently, both the campaign and scenario editor are fun to get into. Does anyone think it will be in any way similar to Runemaster?

I haven't played that by, a google later i gotta say it does indeed look kind of similiar! : ) Except Vikings are always cooler than Knights.. right? ; )

It does look similar so I look forward to seeing how Runemaster release will look.
It's been a while since I read through the Dev Diaries (i'll have a read through tonight) but has there been any mention of permanent player holdings?

I prefer Knights but that's probably because I am bias towards Vikings since playing War of the Vikings! I am an Anglo-Saxon after all...

The old X-Wing and TIE Fighter games were released on GOG a week or two ago... that's what I'm playing more of now. Ahhh, the memories.

Those were fun back in the day. We used to play them as a group. Good times. I'd like to see some of the old Sierra games come out on GOG.

I love the graphics in the newer Halo games, including the remake of Halo 1. The first time I got hit with a Halo 4 fuel rod cannon, I was astounded at the number of colors in it.

I haven't played Persona, but a friend and I hang out and tag team JRPGs. Are the Persona games console only? Or can you get them on PC somewhere?
