I'd really like to play XCom 2, but I can't afford full retail at the moment.
isnt there a humble bundle with that in it atm..?
ah no, its the originals, enemy within and enemy unknown, sorry
https://www.humblebundle.com/No worries. I had seen that earlier. That is a great bundle if I didn't already own everything in it. I wouldn't say I'm a Firaxis junkie, but I do own a lot of their games
I never got into them...I'm more a FPS guy, with occasional MOBA's...
I can get into an FPS now and then, although I haven't found one that compares to BF:BC2 yet. I got completely turned off on MOBAs with Heroes of Newerth. The communities are so negative.
Can't say I've heard of Heroes of Newerth...but dont think I'll check it out either lol, it's pretty much just DotA for me...BF3 was good, not played 4 though...
HoN was actually the first successor to DotA, but I haven't been back to it in years.
I remember playing the WC3 mod of DotA and loved it since then (much better now obviously...) :')
-
Back in the WC3 custom game days I remember hating DotA because I wanted to play things like Sheep Tag, Tower Defense etc and had to sift through all the DotA games to find them.
Then I got into HoN and eventually Dota 2 and I understood why it was so popular. After I graduated from college, I stopped having the free time to commit to 30-45 min matches and cut mobas out of my life for a while, but I got hooked again with Heroes of the Storm.
Now Heroes is pretty much the only moba I'll play because matches usually end within 15-25 minutes and you don't need to have amazing micro skills to be good. Best of all, there's no All chat, which seems to have really cut down on the saltiness and general negative atmosphere that mobas usually seem to cultivate.
Other than that I've been playing a lot of Rainbow 6: Siege lately... I've always been a fan of FPS games and it's fun to have some strategic decisions to make on top of "what gun should I pick".

Played Minecraft for the first time yesterday.
-
Getting the wife set up with Sims Medieval.
-
Spent the evening playing Puzzler World with my kids.
-
Thanks to Puzzler World, my seven year old now does word searches and sudoku and link a pic puzzles on her own. And the four year old does FitWords!
-
Last night was Diablo 3 on PS4 with the wifey. Usually in early evenings I'll try to get some Minecraft in on my server with my daughter. Packing the house to move in about a month, so most of my stuff is packed - and my PC is almost impossible to get to.
-
Still GTA V here, got a heist done last night which added a few hundred grand to my bank account...
-
The Sims Medieval
-
Skyrim, just cause 2 and mass effect 3
-
Mostly Minecraft (FTB Infinity Evolved) and a little bit of Elite Dangerous when I can.
-
Played a bit of Minecraft PE with the kids tonight,.

That update came out two weeks ago. I've been able to do most of those things for a while now. Except the traveling configs I'll have to look into that.

We update daily, it did not come out for us until yesterday morning.

Are you, perhaps, set up to get beta releases?

It very well could be, would have to check. I generally am for the Steam client so that may carry over to the controller.
I also solved my controller disconnecting issue... moved my AP 5ft and no more issues.

Yes, the beta on the Steam client makes you beta on the controller. We knew that these features were in beta, that was announced. That they were released for production was yesterday.

Ah, that makes sense. I'll have to check and see if the mobile profile this is fixed.

And PocketMine-MP is broken. That sucks, we were really getting into that.
