Figured a post to talk about whatever we might be playing at the moment would be good, so here you go.
I'm currently playing The Evil Within, which has some technical issues here and there but overall is very good so far. Reminds me very favorably of Resident Evil 4, which isn't surprising considering it's made by the same guy.
Afterward I will be moving on to Alien: Isolation, then probably going back to Fallout 4 which I still haven't finished and have been neglecting.

The Evil Within? I actually own that game but to my dismay, I haven't picked it back up yet. If I remember correctly, I should be in chapter 3?
The vibe of The Evil Within, like you say, Ian, it does remind me of old school RE but not from the very beginning, though. haha. True that, if it's the same guy, I wouldn't be surprised either.
I've been neglecting Final Fantasy X, if you ever played it before, I'm at the mountain where I just fought Kimura's (Can't remember if that's how you spell that or not), friends. I'm about to fight Seymour again! Oh joy! xD

Played FF X back when it released on PS2. Good stuff.
Yeah, the Seymore fights can be a bitch. Just remember you can always grind a few levels anytime a boss fight is a bit much. Lol

I re-bought FF X from a buddy I found through craigslist who was in the need of some cash. Plus, he was selling a ton of old RPGS. I couldn't miss that opportunity, you know?
I bought it for PS3 and that's where I am, on the mountain. I got it for PS4 but sadly, it's still in the plastic wrapping! haha
My first time playing it as a kid, it was hard. But a while back, I found a way to keep everyone's experience consistent. All you have to do is swap out your party members and they get the same amount. It seems cheap, right? But it works! xD

I am playing through some of my old favorites again. Knights of the Old Republic as well as the sequel and Dragon Age: Origins. I do like Bioware RPGs.

I remember that game. I loved playing it on the original Xbox. I think I even got it on a humblebundle deal a few months ago. I think steam or something finished some of the parts there were left untouched, you know? Maybe it was the sequel I was talking about?
Tbh, I never really got into Dragon Age but I hear plenty of people like it though.

Maybe you are thinking of GOG. They will often times will fix missing or broken things when they release an older game on their platform. I have the steam version already and it does not seem any different from the original.
I really like Dragon Age i know i have thousands of hours logged into the first game from all the play throughs i have started and abandoned.

There's a mod for KOTOR2 that finishes and incorporates most of the "unfinished" content that was still on the disc as code. The mod was so popular that the company that did the HD upgrade on Steam gave the modders some additional resources to polish up the content and added it to the official Steam version.

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about! I got many of the Star War games on a humblebundle and eventually, I'm going to crack open the game. Then start playing! xD I loved playing it as a kid. I just wish they would make a Star War's game like that now, you know?

There's rumors that Bioware is working on KOTOR3... but then again, there are always rumors that they're working on it, so take that with a grain of salt.

Rumors....? That'll be awesome if that was the case. I loved the hell out of the first two. But yes, I'll take it with a grain of salt. Do you think KOTOR2 is the best single player open world experience star wars game? (aka RPG)

Considering how much more they have focused on story in The Old Republic you could almost say that it has become the 3rd game. Not to say i dont want another KOTOR, I do much prefer single player experiences. The only reason why i will play TOR is because it caters to single player experiences.
I would say that KOTOR2 has a lot of issues because it was rushed. Playing it now i see a lot of loose ends and ideas that never were fleshed out. It makes me sad, as the gameplay is real solid. I can't call it the best if I think about what it should have been.
