Have you tried any of paradox grand strategy games like Europa universalis 4, crusader kings2, Victoria2 and hearts of iron3?
Only Hearts of Iron series. Interesting at first but damn it takes some serious time to put into it and the learning curve is steep. Interested in CK2 though.
By like do you mean "how could anyone like this I'll like it for shits and giggles", or do you seriously enjoy that Hollywood style on rails shit?
Because i'm not a sophisticated hardcore hipster but can actually enjoy some mindless killing of enemies whilst experience gained per kill flashes on the screen? Regardless not all CODs are good and recent CODs are certainly not as good as former ones. But still enjoyable to a certain degree.

I'm playing freespace 2 with FSopen, there are lots of custom campaigns, voice acted, and very well put together. Also has graphical improvements. Of course it won't work on the Berenger because "hurr durr mods 2dumb to install"
Having lots of fun with it on my toaster.

Campaign sucked. Multiplayer was okay but like every other game that's not Call of Duty, GMod, TF2, LoL, WoW the multiplayer is nearly dead.
MoH 2010 was good however.
Well, I tried. It's actually difficult to come up with many spunkgargleweewee titles. I suppose Crysis 1, 2 and 3 are valid suggestions. Watch Dogs also.

I've been playing alot of insurgency lately, pretty fun stuff, you might like it
Another game I grabbed recently is Sangfroid: tale of werewolves, it's a game that takes place in Canada during the 1800s. Your a lumberjack trying to defend his homestead from werewolves. It's pretty brutal, cuz your just a puny human and even 1 werewolf can screw you if you try to fight it head on. So before each night, you plan were to put traps, and resource management. Which is also difficult because the wolves spawn all over the map and attack different targets. So you also have to take into consideration the time you'll need to run between back and forth to all your different traps and objectives. Quite fun and makes you work for it.

2 and 3 were pretty bad (while admittedly looking good), 1 was the best of that series. Didn't bother with Watch Dogs due to technical issues at launch, games these days need more quality control

Played half of those games in the list. Also brb fapping at the thought of best game ever a.ka Deus Ex.

Hate space games (atleast games that only revolves around driving spaceships.

Played all Crysis. Liked most of them but Crysis 3 had sweet graphics but overall boring storyline. Watch Dogs seems interesting but not sure. Need something in between before Far Cry 4, Rainbow Six Siege, The Division, Battlefield Hardline and Warlords of Draenor gets released a.ka the GOAT upcoming games.

Checked out the new Stronghold Crusader (2) yet? Will take you some hours to go through (+ multiplayer). And its quite nice, considering Stronghold 3 was absolute shit and Stronghold 2 wasn't that good as expected (however it still made me playing some thousands of hours).

Why don't you play Shadow of Mordor? It's a recent game, rewarding, easy to get into. Plus it is LotR game.
Another recent and very decent game with mindblowing graphics is The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. Currently PC exclusive.
Title: Re: Recommend me some good games. I'm bored as fuck
Post by: LordBerenger on October 12, 2014, 01:13:37 am
I thought Shadow of Mordor was just a LOTR setting with Assassin's Creed gameplay.

Nothing wrong with space games unless they're pay to play/pay to win with real currency
Not spending extra money after buying a game, typically avoid mmos for that reason alone

System Shock 2
excellent choice, all in all a good taste for games
let´s see: Arx Fatalis (was quite an underdog) Amnesia Half Life 2 (you´ll probably know it but didn´t see it on the list, so...yeh.) Metro2033 Outlast Thief 2 (If you´ve played system shock 2, you´ll see similarities in the graphics and the models :D ) Clive Barkers Undying Alan Wake Desperados Baldurs Gate Rollercoaster Tycoon Serious Sam 1
games written in bold should at least be checked out

Already played Half Life 2, Metro 2033 + Last Light, Half Life 2, Alan Wake, Serious Sam 1 a looooong time ago. And not really planning to shit my pants by playing Outlast or Amnesia. Oh and also played Rollercoaster Tycoon. And i dislike Diablo so wouldn't probably like Baldurs Gate. Also lmao if you're talking about the Desperados which i think you are i remember playing that while i was young.
And Undying? Not really planning as i said before to shit my pants.
So that leaves Thief 2. Never played a Thief game but i realllllly suck at being stealthy at games (except in Deus Ex). So dunno
Inbefore we'll get an answer like : But Dishonored is like Thief so I don't like it
:mrgreen:
More like i hated the graphics and visual design so much for Dishonored, dislike steampunk, disliked the fighting system and the story were boring. And to think someone recommended me Dishonored since i liked Deus Ex. Deus Ex and Dishonored is like Apple Pie and Cow Shit.

Another fan of Zero Punctuation. Nice. Like the man once said, he loves shooters, but modern shooters are not shooters, but an entirely different, retarded genre.
Spunkgargleweewees are the Michael Bay movies of gaming.
Ehh yes, the list: "Thief 2(best one imo), Heroes & Generals, Nosgoth, Elemental: Fallen enchantress, Endless legend, Supreme commander, APB(kinda shit, but has some good moments), Adventures of Van Helsing, Rimworld, Burnout paradise(I hate driving games too, but this game is the shit. More agressive and adrenalinefilled than other driving games), How to survive, PoE, Nox, The guild 2:Renaissance(< ONLY THIS ONE! Even this one is kinda shit and bugged filled like the rest of the series, but it has its very enjoyable moments), Anno series(they all kinda good, just pick which timeperiod you like the most), Pharao.

Please don´t compare pile-o-shit Pisshonored to an exquisite example of stealth video game history like Thief1 or 2, thank you You Burrick breath smelling Taffer :(

Diablo is hack and slay (or click-and-kill idk) with one hero, while Baldurs Gate is an old fashioned RPG where you command a group with a D&D-like rule system. But if you mean that you don´t like the setting (dirty, classic rpg) or the graphics, then you probably won´t like it, yeh
Hm, it´s less about sucking at being stealthy and more about if you´re having fun trying (and/or failing :D) to do it. Of course, as a really huge Thief-fanboy I say playitplayitplayit, but yeh...the opinion of a fan, you know. have a cutscene. Gosh, I love the cutscenes.

I'd start off with Europa Universalis 4 if you want to try to get into these games. Its has decent depth but the learning curve is a lot lower than CK2 or HoI

not that you deserve to play a good game, but someone else might
Already played it. Was good. Atleast it's not cel shaded shit or cartoon graphics or some crappy cliché indie game.
It's a good game but wish the voices were completely in Cantonese for better atmosphere

The serious sam games are always nice to come back to.
Shadow warrior is also a sort of similar game to serious sam, but with amazing dismemberment and satisfying katana combat, and some guns that are also quite enjoyable but nowhere close to the katana. Cheesy storyline with punchlines/catchfrases etc, but very enjoyable overall.
I guess Metro: Last Light if you are into more story based. Felt very lackluster in gameplay, but the story and setting/atmosphere was quite ok.
RAGE is a really cool underrated game IMO, satisfying fun gunplay with very alive enemies which are constantly on the move, dodging your shit so you have to keep up with a couple of neat weapons to make use of. Story is meh, cant really remember much of it, it wasnt bad but it wasnt funny either iirc. But i never was one for story, i play the game for the gameplay purely.

Dishonored was fucking great, and the DLCs, which are more like an expansion pack, are even better. Dishonored 2 is one of my most awaited games. Or anything that studio makes next, really.

The shooting mechanics were good but nothing is intuitive, respawning enemies, and the fact that sometimes you shoot people who apparently aren't enemies put me off a bit. Also, you got bro-seff.
I remember having a lot of fun with that game when it first came out and the ending is great from what I recall. Jet Li's Rise to Honor is up the same alley if you like beat 'em ups although I think it's PS2 only.
Someone had also made a mod for Duke Nukem 3D called Duke Nukem Forever that was a fun couple of hours.
I've been playing Terranigma and Ogre Battle on the SNES as just random games you might look into but I'm guessing sprites and pixels aren't your thing.

Recommend me if possible some good FPS shooter games, good comic books based games or RPG games (and not shitty top down perspective or early 90s, late 90s RPGs, the few good ones of the 90s i've already played).
What i'm feeling for right atm.
