The Heroes Round Table

Red Dead Redemption 2 is on discount on Steam. It's described as one of the greatest games ever made, so it's likely worth a look.

Chivalry 2 is free on Epic Games right now, probably worth a look because of the strength of the reviews: https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/chivalry-2

It seems HoMM 3 has quite the following on Twitch, with many streams having over 1k viewers. The playerbase appears to be East-European dominated, and it also looks like they have some unique formats, e.g. "only one hero". The gameplay is very high level and the players all do optimization...

Fallout 3 is free on Epic Games right now - https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/fal ... ar-edition

So I started playing this game again and: Superpowerful indeed lol, the game I had yesterday when I discovered the 'invulnerable ship' mechanism showed just how 'superpowerful' the Dread Lords are. What happened: I had a ship that could shoot at three opponents (as in an enemy fleet of three ships) ...

And no I didn't ge...

I'm relocating in a couple of months, which is scary - I'll be moving from a country where Covid is not a problem and there are virtually no restrictions to a country where Covid is under control, but still a problem. It's a scary proposition and I know some people who have refrained from relocating...

Damn, missed it again. I need to make an email alert to this thread or something.

Edit: Ok so I'm subscribed to this thread, but does that mean I get notifications whenever I check CH, or email notifications whenever a new post is made? I'd prefer the latter, but not sure if that's how it works.

Well, Brazil is one of the worst-affected countries in the world. I'm more concerned for India because that country looks like it will suffer really hard until a vaccine is developed. Life is pretty normal where I am, except we're all working from home, which has dire consequences for me on a person...

Bump, still looking for new multiplayer game to play. Anyone have suggestions?

I notice Among Us has exploded in popularity on Twitch, but the game looks too simple to hold my attention for long.

Damn, I should check this thread more often. Thanks Pol for posting links, even if they're out-of-date for me now and even if I have no time to play new games

Finally finished Blood & Wine, and with it the entire series. Great game. According to GOG I've played The Witcher 3 for 150 (!) hours, which is an incredible number for the price, and at some point I still have to play New Game +. Blood & Wine was also a good expansion with huge amounts of ...

Play Freespace 2! Only costs a few dollars, comes with tons of content, there's no micromanagement (since it's level-based), and again because it's level-based each of which only takes ~15 minutes to complete (assuming you don't fail ), you can easily play a few hours a week no problem.

This old game won lots of accolades, and since then its fans have gone on to make many custom campaigns for it. The game itself costs a few dollars, but beyond that all the extra content is free. FS Open (the program used to get these mods) used to be hard to install, but with Knossos , it's gotten ...

Lol wimfrits. Binge watching has happened a bit too often for me that starting to watch a TV series takes an active decision, because once I start it'll be hard to stop. This time I played W3, I didn't kill Keira, recruited Letho and Roche. Just the emperor and Djkstra were SoBs and didn't come to h...

Took me a hundred hours but I eventually finished The Witcher 3. Great game, very intriguing with loads of memorable characters. The day I finished it I actually had some trouble sleeping that night because I was thinking about the fates of some of the people. Many of the quests & dialogue were ...

Reviews for Anthem are not good ...

Epilogue: I bit the bullet and bought this laptop from Illegear for US$ 1678 (including postage): 15.6" FHD Anti-glare 144Hz IPS sRGB 100% Display featuring INFINIVISION Bezel-less Technology Professional Color Calibration 8th Gen. Intel Core i7-8750H (Six Core, 9M Cache, 2.2GHz to 4.1GHz) Nvid...

Thanks, I will take a look at Anthem when it's released.

Payday 2 is a FPS! Those unfortunately make me dizzy, and besides I'm terrible at them, so I'll have to pass

- must be multiplayer, at least cooperative with 3 players (since I want to play with 2 others). More players is even better (since I have more friends). - can't be very ping dependent, since we're all in different countries. - if a MOBA, not one of League of Legends, DotA 2, Heroes of Newerth, and ...
