Ran across the Long War mod for Xcom. This thing is brutally hard, but has some interesting changes/additions. I'm only about 5 missions in, and I've already had an entire team (of noobs) wiped out, lost one country from the coalition, and I'm not out of money.

I really need to get into XCOM. I have it but haven't really been able to play it.

I'm on the first one and I really like it.

I've heard mixed things about the second. I'll probably get it on a steam sale at some point. The first is very good if you like turn-based, tactical, third person combat mechanics.
-
@scottalanmiller always been meaning to get into XCOM. I hear it's an extremely solid game series. Then again, I feel I just end up loading up good old mount and blade or LoL.

It's really good. And the FBI Declassified looks like a really neat extra component of the story telling, too.

For those of you who haven't played the Witcher, GOG and Ars Technica are brining it to you for free for the next day or so!
You do have to provide an email address. I just thought I'd pass this along though...

Good stuff!

Enjoying some No Man's Sky. It's not often I have time to play games, and this one is very enjoyable.

I know the feeling. I go for months at a time without being able to even fire up a game

Love most of the XCOM stuff.

I'm still playing the "original" (original remake that is) and I love it. I get so little time to devote to it but I'm loving the story and pacing.
-
Fired up Medieval Total War II over the weekend. I still prefer the first one, but it is still good.
-
Fallout 4 over the weekend... I installed a stupid number of mods and this is my first run through.
-
Mad Max (just like the batman/mordor games) Bastion and Transistor (still havent played either of these excellent games though to the end). Mass Effect:Andromeda.
-
I heard Little Nightmares is good. I don't get my internet setup until Wednesday so It's just local games I already own for now.

I spent a little more than 2 hours last night in Ark trying (and succeeding) to get 2 L shaped sections of a structure to have ramps lead down with a proper concave vertex. Ark doesn't have a great building system and the way it handles clipping is to not, so the vertex, even with the mod, was very trying on my patience.
Tonight, I'm going to work on filling in some gaps around the rest of my area, and maybe rebuild some walls so that they line up evenly.
Sure would be nice if someone like Kelly logged in and helped me to end the boredom by letting me help them to get started, or something. It's boring being alone.

@Grey I've pretty much sworn off MMOs or anything that smells of them because of how my life looks after I start to get in to them.

Even having a life after starting one is a huge achievement. Be proud
