The 2018 what are we playing thread

Adventure/Lucasfilm Games
446

Finished:

  • Hero-U
    Text-heavy, light RPG with a few puzzles and Sauerbraten. Liked it a lot, but had wished for more adventure-style gameplay.

Started:

  • State of Mind
    Stylish.
  • Bards Tale I (Remastered)
    Having a blast with this one. Plays pretty much like I remember it from the Amiga, only this time I actually know what to do. The first game in a long time that I find hard to stop playing.

I donĀ“t know. Pleading cat pics, maybe?

Say things like:
ā€˜Itā€™s a richer experience.ā€™
ā€˜You havenā€™t technically completed it until you play on hard.ā€™
ā€˜There are more Easter eggs.ā€™
ā€˜We can give you hints.ā€™

All those things would work for me, anyway!

By that logic I should probably put the cat from the above pic in a castle man costume.

Et voila: purrrrfect!

@tasse-tee you should start playing the hard mode of TWP immediately because itā€™s a richer experience and you havenā€™t technically completed it until you play on hard. Beside that, there are more Easter eggs and we can give you hints!

That pic is one of the top results and I had almost used that. :laughing:

Now that is unfair to the other cat. It is also only a human being afterall!

I finished Guardians of the Galaxy and the Costume Quest expansion last week. Apparently I had literally stopped playing the game right before the final boss battle whenever that was. (Well over half a year ago.)

I started playing Costume Quest 2 and Tiberian Sun. Iā€™d swear Tiberian Sun looked better on a 14 inch CRT thoughā€¦

I have the same impression with other old games - the older the games are the more I miss an old CRT. :slight_smile:

But I donā€™t miss the framedrops during fancy lighting effects like ion storms. :rofl:

Edit: also, I played it on my laptop. I ought to give it a go on my desktop monitor instead.

:smiley_cat: :smiley_cat: Awwwā€¦ :relaxed: :two_hearts:

Well, the persuasive power of cute cats and great points combined has prevailed. Iā€™ll start playing TWP Hard Modeā€¦ right now!! :smile:

Iā€™ll make a thread once I get stuck or have something interesting to say.

Iā€™m looking forward to helping someone else for a change. Though there will probably be a mad scramble to reply since quite a few of us will know the answer :wink:

I wonder if itā€™s been long enough since i played it to replay in unbeeped mode. I started a few months back (when it came out) but decided it hadnā€™t been quite long enough yet.
