Gaming - What's everyone playing / hosting / looking to play

Got my gaming PC back up and running last night. Need to do some more testing to see how stable it actually is but hopefully it will work out.
Probably won't do SLI/Crossfire in my next build.

Yeah, that's generally more of a pain than it's worth, unless you're using two or more top end cards.

I bought these cards when they first came out and their was a bug in the firmware release that allowed the 6950s to become 6970s. So I bought two of the 6950s for less then the price of the 6970. With the firmware hack I basically got two 6970's.

Playing Warframe, thanks to @DustinB3403 ... NOT.
Just think of a shooter with some crazy ninja style movement and a Diablo-like "just one more drop" feeling. A bit like a mix from MDK, Quake / UT, maybe Mass Effect and Diablo. And it's actually F2P without P2W: You are even allowed to trade endgame items against "premium" currency.

Been watching a friend play No Man's Sky over the weekend. In reality... it looked pretty boring.

It's like minecraft + skyrim from what I've heard. Accurate?

No, there is no role playing. So nothing like Skyrim. More like Minecraft without the building.

I see. Maybe they said skyrim meaning first person. Then again minecraft is first person. lol
Fun Fact: I've never played minecraft. I don't get it.

I don't get it either, but the kids are playing it right now. It's a bit like an unlimited box of Legos. It's super boring. You can skin it... um, that's interesting for a few seconds.

That's a horrible way to use Skyrim as an example. It's third person for a lot of people, too.NMS is just a first person, unlimited, random exploration game. But it's random, so the exploration is really, really boring.

@scottalanmiller Plus it looks way worse than the preview footage, which is always a slap in the face to fans:

Base game is very boring to me. The fun part, on the PC, is the mod scene. Lots of mods include quests, adventures, etc. Some mods have a progression system so the goal is to get to the end of the tier and see the cool things that were implemented. It's good for some people and not good for others for sure.

Kill it with fire!

@Nic yeah, I didn't watch much of the previews as it isn't a game I was following, but watching someone play it on the PS4 I was like "wait, this is a new game? It looks like its from 2011." Now "bad", just not what you expect. It doesn't have any look, feel or hope of being a AAA game. Doesn't seem up to par with a random PS4 release.

Yeah that's the part that cracks me up every time. I'm told it's being played on one of these:

@scottalanmiller clearly this is a sub-par MineCraft.
All of the exploration, none of the build.
Yup, but really, really boring exploration, just like Minecraft. Not thought out, story driven exploration like Skyrim.
