Gaming thread

PC is ALWAYS king. So much so that PC has to be given a nerf (aim assist) to allow the console plebs to even be given a chance at comparing. The problem there though is the aim assist REALLY makes a difference and gives them too much of an advantage. If your mainstay is RPG then COD won't appeal too much. The campaign is a lot of fun, but otherwise it is a twitch 1st person shooter.

RPG wise you have The Witcher, Skyrim, Star Wars KOTR, and Fallout are all titles I have not played, but have heard from friends that loved them a lot.

Ones I have played and can vouch for include:
Deus Ex (played the series and loved the whole story and gameplay)
Mass Effect (fucking amazing game play and story, they really did a great job with this one...except Andromeda.. leave that piece of shit alone)

Dude. Fallout. WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

I disagree honestly, while I was average on console I absolutely body nerds while on PC. Also you've never played any of the Fallouts nor KOTR??

Never got around to it TBH. By the time it was in my sphere it was already at 3 or 4 and I had other gaming priorities. Heard great things. Just never played. Like Assasin's Creed.

Same as above. Never had the chance to play them. Heard great things, just never played. Never been a huge SW fan so they never reall sparked my interest. PC is harder no doubt. It requires skill. Console has a function that literally brings the cross hairs center of mass for you if you get the timing and pressure right. With PC you have to be on time and on target all on your own. Yes cheats are easier to acquire and use on a PC, but they are not as prevalent with good anti cheat support.
 
If you want a great Game I recommend The Outer Worlds it’s a space RPG from Obsidian the Folks who made New Vegas. You play as a Colonist who journeys to a new colony and than gets frozen for like 50 years and Wakes up to a colony system that’s controlled by an Evil board of directors and has dwindling resources. Great Times abound!!!

I really need to go to bed, but first...I pulled up my Steam account. Some of these numbers seem awfully low to be honest. Anyway, Steam says...

Fallout 3 - 7.4 hours on the GOTY edition which is probably why it is so low, I didn't buy it as a GOTY.
Fallout NV - 252 hours (No freaking way it is this low)
Fallout 4 - 297 (probably right, but if anyone thinks I played FO4 more than FO:NV...wow)
Skyrim - 590 hours (there is no way it is this low)
Witcher 3 - 95 hours (sounds about right)

Destiny 2 - 1,036 hours since the Oct. 1 migration to Steam

I have similar numbers on the bethesda games, although don't forget skyrimse and skyrim legacy. But for me.. at least half of that time is modding from the nexus, not even playing the game
 
Ooooooo I love Steam flex! :D8-)

Account Since 18Sept03 (yes 6 days after Steam was released console peasants)
Star Trek Online: 3218hrs missing a few hundred from before I moved from the PWE launcher (most of that spent smoking @Ranger Psych in his puny ship... ok it DID have a spinal mounted phaser which was cool)
Arma 3: 1944hrs
Stellaris: 1112hrs
Scum: 782hrs

I also have 1097hrs on Battlefield 4 over on Origin

True to Ceaser always
 
For some reason, steam only counts when the FO3 launcher is open for play time.

For some reason I'm kind of pissed Steam isn't tracking what I actually spent on the game.

Holy shit, and I thought I played too much video games doing a couple hours a week..

I used to have a contracting gig where I could game 12 hours a day. I could bring my laptop into the workcenter and if nothing was going on, I was caught up on school work, etc., then I had the night to myself. I can't do any of that now, but I'm still overseas, wife's in the States, so I have a few hours after work each night to play if I want.
 
So...my dumb ass did the grind for Heir Apparent in the Guardian Games.

I'm kind of glad I did.

I'm mostly a PvE guy and love running the 21% Delirium machine gun. It is okay for bosses but just wrecks mid-tier yellow bars and under. Stack scavenger and reserve armor mods, and I can hold over 400 rounds; on some strikes I barely use a primary. Once I have ammo in Gambit, I can clear out blockers without many problems. Perfect Paradox, Recluse, and HA are money in Gambit.

Enter HA. You lose a second-and-a-half to spin it up, like 21% it is a 900 rpm MG, BUT it has better impact and range stats. The thing is ridonkulous in PvE.

I think GG ends with the reset on the 12th. If you aren't grinding by now you probably don't have enough time to finish the quest. If you're on the fence and kind of close, and like PvE, I'd invest the time. If you need anything from the forges, they are part of GG bounties so you can usually find someone playing.

CSGO - 2226
CSS - 786
PUBG - 779
Rocket League - 46

There are probably a fair amount of idle hours on the GO. I'd have to check the alt account for 1.6 but I'd guess a lot of idle hours on that as well.
