New month and surely some games to be given at christmas time, so whats everyone playing this month?

For me, I guess I'll play D2's DLC at some point, but otherwise Warframe still completely holds my attention. Held off buying Mario Odyssey and am expecting that for christmas, so that'll be on the agenda too.

If you need any hints with that I'll get my son to help you!

I am finishing off some Rimworld - a fun game and expanded with loads of mods. My current project is to amputate the hands of a melee colonist, attach some scyther blades, give him a power shield to protect from projectiles then let him loose to mince some faces. Finally in beta so full release may be in 2018.

Will also go through D2 DLC content.

Also looking around for good switch deals - want some mario kart action.

Nice! haha.. I've watched a few people on twitch and have the generally gist of it all, but the main point of the game largely seems to be exploring and finding those moons, so it'll be a fun chill game to play in handheld mode when my partner has TV control haha

Strangely, he often plays this or similar when I want the TV! Too many consoles connected to one TV, I may have to cave in and put a TV in his room, toss in the odd pizza and kick him out when he's 18! But seriously, he is a nintendo tragic, he will be that one guy that buys the Switch 37 when it comes out.

Mainly CoD ww2. Will also check out the D2 dlc.
Swapped swbf2 for the new CoD after I finished the campaign, as there was no one to play multiplayer with.

raz81 · « **Reply #207 on:** December 07, 2017, 08:34:42 PM »

Destiny 2 with the Mrs, and Skyrim VR for myself. Elite dangerous has kinda dropped off my radar

euphoricx · « **Reply #208 on:** January 01, 2018, 08:54:15 PM »

Got AC origins as an Xmas gift, so will be playing that. And D2 for weekly raid nights, if there are any organised.

SmashedPumpkin · « **Reply #209 on:** January 01, 2018, 10:11:08 PM »

Getting tired of all the microtransaction and lootbox nonsense in games these days so bought a switch to widen my options.

Will be continuing with Xenoblade Chronicles 2 for another week or two, already over 80hrs playtime.

AkyraStrike · « **Reply #210 on:** January 01, 2018, 11:15:23 PM »

I was toying with getting Xenoblade Chronicles 2 as well smashed, but I got Mario Odyssey and South Park Fractured but Whole to play, plus Warframe as always and toward the end of the month Monster Hunter World

Xenoblade is great, like an old school jrpg with a better combat system. A bit of grinding/backtracking is needed to strengthen blades though, and getting blades randomly assigned to party members is strange when there is a tank, healer, dps setup.

I have Mario, rabbids and Zelda added to backlog, play Mario kart sometimes. Thus don't know if I will bother with monster hunter.

Its definitely a game I'm interested in, though I might wait until a price drop (if that ever happens, Nintendo are horrible for dropping the price of games). I only have Zelda & Mario Odyssey on the Switch.. and I really couldn't get into Zelda, it just didn't click with me and I don't see why it's apparently so amazing and GotY

Bruce_Leeroy · « **Reply #213 on:** January 02, 2018, 10:46:36 AM »

Picked up witcher 3 goty edition off the ps store. So far have dropped a few days in it and barely scratched the surface... enjoying it though!

M-Rossi · « **Reply #214 on:** January 02, 2018, 12:09:13 PM »

New year and new month!
I played some Spore with my son and he loved it.
Played a little Ark & Subnautica but mostly Shadow of War. I'll most likely be playing more Shadow of War as I only play in small sessions when I can.

I noticed not much in the way of price drops - maybe better to aim for discounted jb vouchers and/or estore money - jb had both in the last few weeks (20% vouchers via eBay and 15% estore)

Not sure how the market is for used switch games.

I'm also not sure about Zelda as it has virtually no story.

I was like this, and then played it while away and something clicked. Different to other games, no real character progression, more about asset management than anything else. Been enjoying it a lot more this time, although it should be called Link:Shrine Quest

Taking me a while to get back into the groove of things these past couple of weeks, hoping to change that next week.

I'll be playing;

AC: Origins
Shadow of War
GT Sport
The Evil Within 2

Not so much. Spaz has given it a few tries but just can't get into it.

AkyraStrike · « **Reply #221 on:** February 02, 2018, 10:44:00 AM »

New month.. doesnt time fly.. so what are we all playing?

For me, Monster Hunter World is priority with Warframe thrown in to keep pace with the grind

also got Persona 5, but will probably set that aside for later.

Ant · « **Reply #222 on:** February 02, 2018, 10:49:40 AM »

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided... doesn't feel as good as the previous one, kind of dragging myself through it because I like the genre
Watching my son play Overwatch and wishing I had his damn reflexes

ummm... looking for something to get involved in...

Spaz has been running around in BF1 again and it's pretty good now!

Cool, I'll try to give that a run over the weekend. I finished the DLC story in Destiny 2 last weekend and then Daniel and I were kind of, well, what now....
