What was the last game you were this excited for?

[unmerged(739896)]

Simcity 2000 and damn it was decades ago

 

[Anaximander]

Diablo III

 

[Jeanguy17]

This is the first game I preordered, and I promised myself I would never preorder a game. That tells a lot I think

 

[BobbyDylan]

Battlefield 3. And before that, Oblivion.

 

[Pokka]

Simcity (yeah it sux)
Diablo 3 (yeah it sux)
Crusader Kings (yeah it sux)
Master of Orion 3 (yeah it sux too)

wish me good luck this time!

 

[Variton]

Xcom: Eu

 

[unmerged(606777)]

The Old Gods

 

[Andy_Dandy]

Never been this excited, but the closest thing must be every time a new Civilization-game is coming out.

 

[malyxxl]

Probably HoI3 and Witcher 2

 

[Knightfall52]

This exited for?

Ck2:The old gods (defo worth it)

Star wars the old republic (epic 5 months, then enough bitterness to convince me the mmo thing is dead and buried)

Medieval 2: total war (E-P-I-C)

Rome 2: total war (next month)

Metal gear 5 (too small )

not many big led downs tbh.

 

[NimaFoulaam]

EU3 and DW.

I haven't played them a lot. It's more the emotion some get when their soccer team meets Manchester United.

 

[FabiusBile]

Privateer 2.

Okay, that might be a bit extreme ,

 

[unmerged(623801)]

Guild Wars 2 and before that Diablo 3.

DISAPPOINTED WITH BOTH so now I can never get excited ever again.

/Patiently waiting for a competent 4x game to come along

 

[NimaFoulaam]

Privateer 2.

Okay, that might be a bit extreme ,

a true fan

 

[Bonkster]

last game that i was as excited for as eu 4? payday 2 before that.... maybe world of warcraft back in the days

 

[Delta107]

Mass Effect 3. (May the Old Gods and the Seven damn those responsible for it!!!) And before that HOI3.

 

[tapewormlondon]

GOW 2 and CiV......both of which were bitter disappointments

 

[Delta107]

Skyrim. I'll remember the opening night for the rest of my life; the anticipation on the forums. And when I first got out of that starter dungeon. I was so impressed. And when I came down that road and saw Whiterun down in the valley for the first time. Oh my.

Yes, when I saw it the first time I was also extremely impressed.

Diablo 3. Like EU4, I heard about it, got really excited about it, kinda forgot about it for a while, checked up on it a few months later and then got super excited again.
After being stabbed in the heart by Diablo 3's real money auction house/garbage plot/Diablo looking dumb/ TER-ROAR/jon-DARRRR/et cetera, I wasn't sure if I could ever be excited for a launch again, but I loved the EU4 demo so now I'm just excited again

...title said "last game you were this excited for", so didn't list Skyrim. Excitement doesn't describe my feeling for that game. Only game I've ever gone to a midnight opening for, went to bed at 2am, couldn't sleep until like 4am, woke up at 6am with no alarm and heart racing so just decided alright lets do this!

 

[Gemberkoekje]

I think that would be Dawn of War 40.000: Retribution.

3 hours, 57 minutes.
