Finished Dragon Age (all my games are for PC) a while ago. Played it on "normal" with a female Dalish Elf Warrior. When I have time, I'd like to replay it it as a male mage (already did the origin), this time on "hard".

I picked up Divine Divinity 2 after that, which is a lot of fun; -still busy. Also busy playing Ceville, on the AG front, and my copy of Dark Fall 3 has just arrived.

I've been neglecting strategy, since I played DA:O in micromanagment mode, which amply satisfied my strategy itch, it seems, but I've got waiting:
King Arthur: the Wargame, Elven Legacy, and King's Bounty.

Sadly I'm rather short on time, though... :P

Having finished Dragon Age and replayed Dawn of War 2, in anticipation of the Chaos expansion, I find myself revisiting the Company of Heroes Anthology (a fantastic RTS game and well worth a purchase at the reduced prices if you're into RTS games).

Moontravler · 23rd January 2010, 09:53 AM

Talking of expansions, I think I'll wait for the DA:O expansion before I start it up again.

I just realised that I actually bought DOW 2 when it came out, and then completely forgot all about it, because I then played Risen, and after that, Dragon Age.

Now I'm enjoying Div 2 too much to interrupt it, but I must definitely find out what I did with my copy of DOW2 and put it on the shelf in front of me..

Age of Chivalry - a total conversion modification pack for Age of Empires II: the Conquerors set in Western and Central Europe 1100-1500 AD.

If you're bored with Age of Empires II: the Conquerors, try this - great fun.
It overwrites the existing copy of AoE, so if you want to play both, you have to re-install AoE with a different address and make a new shortcut. CD and "C" patch required.

I reloaded and am in the process of replaying Star Trek: Armada 2. (I prefere the original, but it won't load on my PC.)

After a break from playing anything on my PS2, I'm going back to replay Valkyrie Profile: Silmeria, to try and get through the bonus dungeon this time.

I am so excited for Mass Effect 2 but I have so many games to play, I might have to leave it until I finish Dragon Age.

Been playing Warlords Battlecry 3 recently - though whilst I am no expert gamer the AI in this game does need rather an overhaul. I'm upping the game to hard and it still does not really pose a big threat unless it starts with a majorly overwhelming advantage (which in this game would be three or four level 20 creatures on the attack).
Its a fun game though and has all the content that modern games just seem to lack on in that it has a wide number of different armies and it has an experience, inventory and personal guard setup as well which I find pleasent additions to what is, in the end, a typical RTS experience.

I do often think that PC games would do well to throwin those little trophies and extras that console and online games get. Not the silly impossible ones (find the 2 pixels that represent a hidden chest hidden behind a massive door in a very large dungeon sort) but the achiveable achiveables

Thought I might give Torchlight a go, and so far I am enjoying it.

Good to hear Wy

I should get to playing it again - and check out the community for some mods

Wybren · 27th January 2010, 12:57 AM

Thanks for recommending it, I like the cartoony type look to it too and the little wolfy that follows you about.

Overread · 27th January 2010, 12:59 AM

heh last time I was on the main website forum there was a mod to make the pets larger (and yes wolfy is the best of course). Check the torchlight thread: Torchlight --- Diablo 2.5? and get one of the mod managers first though - they are needed once you go beyond one or two different mods.

Joel007 · 29th January 2010, 09:14 PM

Definitely play DOW2 co-op with someone, it's great fun. Try out the new "Last Stand" option as well.*
Dragon age is great fun, I've tried being an evil persuasive rogue ranger duelist. Time for a good warrior

CyBeR · 30th January 2010, 03:07 PM

Just finished "Leisure Suit Larry 7: Love for sail!" and I can say I really enjoyed it (though I needed some help at times). I'm now getting "Magna cum laude" from the same series and plan on installing "A vampyre story" soon. I've got an itch for some adventure games and I plan on scratching it.
