[_Neptunno_]

Hello everyone and Happy New Year!!
One more year, and before my good friend Fassou claims it , I open the official thread for you to comment on what you have played last year, if you had time and desire xD

When I can I will post "my experience" and publish the rest of the threads jejeje.

This year I've been playing a little bit of CSS, a bit more of Battlefiled 3 and a few games of OpenTTD. The big novelty for me has been Cities Skylines. I got this one a while ago with a deal (I don't know if for free or very cheap) and I started it a couple of months ago. I've been hooked for a long time although I'm starting to get tired of it. I have a city with 220,000 inhabitants, all with high-density areas (+ industrial and offices), traffic around 70%, a dense network of buses and metro (free), 7 freight train stations, 7 passenger stations, three seaports and an airport. All with taxes at 6% and with generous income. I only have to occupy the little space I have left, take a look at the railway network that sometimes collapses and then I'll uninstall it and burn it so I never get hooked again.

Me in my line: quite a few old games, some of those that have been given away (especially Saints Row 2) and a lot of "indie".

For next year, I suppose it will be more of the same, but increasingly in the "grandpa gameplay style"; no "horror survivals" or shooting wildly...

You have to see, with what one has been...

[Yorus]

Well, I could almost refer you to the threads from other years:

• World Of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth.
• Sensible World of Soccer.
• OpenTTD.

And nothing more.

[Fassou]

A low-key 2018, but after the disastrous 2017 everything is getting better xD

I'm starting to understand @_Neptunno_ about that mountain of games, although mine is probably not as big

Things started more or less well, trying the remastered version of Bioshock 2 and then the DLCs of Bioshock Infinite (Season Pass) which were a thorn in my side for a long time.

Then I took a stab at the unforgettable Homefront, and I started installing some games from the mountain:

Duke Nukem Forever, disappointment and abandonment (I'll have to pick it up again, when I find the motivation).

Unreal Tournament 3: Black Edition (I also abandoned it, because it's clear that I'm getting old for certain types of games).

Borderlands 2: GOTY, this seemed like a safe bet but I also got tired before finishing (or maybe I did finish it... I don't even remember, that's how sad it is).

Someone during the summer, did their best to get me to play SOMA, and it was pretty good.

Then I found a crappy pack that included Mad Max and I had a great time.

And finally, I occasionally played Legend of Grimrock II which is also very entertaining, although some puzzles are a pain, and it's making me want to play the first Lands of Lore

I also tried the remastered version of Full Throttle which is pure nostalgia and some others that the Amnesia isn't letting me remember right now ;).

See you later! Gamers!

[Namiga]

Well, I must be the most boring person, because I'm still doing the same thing as in 2018... CS go, aseto corsa, and some other car simulator....
But since Black Friday, the only thing I play is iRacing.

[rul3s]

Well, I'm getting called to single player games less and less, and I play almost exclusively online with friends through discord and/or teamspeak, but this has been my list:

• Counter Strike Global Offensive: A classic, I'll never get rid of this addiction, it's like smoking.
• PUBG: A great discovery.
• Duck Game: Great for playing 4 people on the same screen/TV
• Fortnite: To pass the time with other friends who play, but nothing more.
• League of Legends: Same as fortnite, I play more for the friends than for the game itself.
• DOOM (Xbox one X During the 2 months I had an Xbox One X I went through the story mode.
• Pokemon let's go (Switch): Pokemon was the game of my childhood on the GBC, I had to revive it.
• Legend of Zelda Breath of Wild (Switch): Came with the switch I bought second hand, I still haven't finished it even though it's entertaining.
• Forza Horizon 4: A real game, only that once played on the Xbox One X at 4K@30fps I bought it for PC and connected the TV to the PC to continue playing it.
• Dirt4 and Project Cars: My first attempts at simulators along with a Logitech Driving Force GT that was lent to me, I must say I'm enjoying it.
• Blade and Sould: The same friends encouraged me to try an MMORPG, it was good but when I finished the story I got bored.

[krampak]

I still do the same...

WoW BfA (currently with the account frozen)
PUBG
Diablo 3
Overwatch
Clash Royale
oGame xD

[Sylver]

Get someone to bring me professional help, I can't get out of the 90s

This year I've done almost always:
-Age Of Empires II HD
-Tomb Raider (several)
-Quake II and III (if I don't play them occasionally, I get cardiac arrhythmias xDD)
-GTA (several up to 5)
-MAME32 ( :rofl: )
-Game Boy Color and various old Pokémon (Great rul3s)
-Some Need For Speed occasionally, from various eras

The truth is that almost always when I play is occasional and circumstantially, the total of hours that I have been able to spend this year playing does not reach 100. All because of social relationships and work

Greetings gamers!

Hello everyone:

I basically spend years playing the same thing but this year I realized that my main game is coming to an end due to lack of players or interesting servers.

• Team Fortress 2... I've been playing this game for a long time but it's dying. A shame, it's fun and my favorite game of the last decade.
• Killingg Floor 2... yes, shooting and thinking little but it entertains me.
• Doom. Uff it still seems like a great game to me and I'm waiting for the new one to come out in 2019.
• Far cry. I played some of the 3 and 4 but it bores me. The last one I've read such bad reviews that I won't even buy it unless it costs less than 10€.
• Stalker: any of the 3, you either love them or hate them. For single sessions in a game something and then I don't touch it for months.
• Metro: waiting for the new one in 2019 and playing the previous ones.
• Orcs Must Die: 1 and 2. I find them very entertaining, but I can play them for a few days and not touch them for months too.
• Battlefield I. Some sessions but honestly it hooks me little. The BF V I suppose I will buy but there's no rush.
• Max Payne 3... after years I returned to play it but I left it unfinished.

Many games for most few hours dedicated. I have many bought that I didn't even install, like: Dying Light, Arma 3, Valiant Hearts, Age of Empires II played very little... and GTA V that I installed and started several times but it lasts for days... consequences of getting older I suppose...

[Istarion]

Well, this year I have tried a few games, and I have continued with other classics:

• Overwatch: a good addiction, much better with colleagues
• Dying Light: very good game, cooperative is great, I really loved it. The expansion with cars loses a lot
• Elite Dangerous: I needed a new MMO and since I got addicted to the old one on DOS (with polygons without textures and bright colors), I bought it and I'm enjoying it quite a bit
• Battlefield 1: it surprised me, it reminds me a lot of Wolfenstein Enemy Territory, which I think is the FPS I liked the most
• Lost Castle: beat'em up / action RPG, cooperative play with my girlfriend and we found it quite fun; I must confess that I used cheat engine to give us money
• Conan: I needed an MMORPG and I didn't feel like playing Rust, so I gave it a try with some colleagues; too bad for the lack of content and the poor AI, too "player oriented"
• GTA V: very little, some online, but after getting addicted so many times to so many versions since the old mythical one seen from above, I find it a bit boring
• HeXen: to revive a classic with my brother jejeje
• Heretic: long live the pixel! I didn't finish it but I got addicted to it
• Civilization V: one more turn... a classic that never gets old
• Naruto Shipuuden Ultimate Ninja Storm3 / Revolution: not as much as last year but I played with my brother
• PUBG: it has its thing, but I ended up burning it out a bit; doing 3 matches, being a bit disorganized and doing nothing after 3h ended up frustrating me...
• Dead Island: it's fun to play cooperatively, but it gets tiring
• Others: a little Left2Dead, and very little of Wizard of Legend, Dark Souls 3, Moon Hunters, Magicka 2, Natural Selection 2.

[Mystique]

Well, from what I can remember, the following:

• Lego marvel super heroes 2
• Lego ninjago
• lego DC super villains
• thief simulator
• South Park The Fractured But Whole

and for now that's it...

[Obione]

Damn I can't remember but I must mention Zelda Breath of the Wild, I wish I had the Men in Black gadget to get drunk and replay it fresh.

[_Neptunno_]

Well, I forgot to put my list of games from 2018!!
I must admit that I had the feeling that I play less than before... but when I review my list I realize that I play quite a lot, the thing is that I have so many games on my "pending" list that I think I will never finish jajaja Besides, work, family, friends, love affairs, watching series (I estimate that more than 400 episodes last year, but on average about 30-35 minutes per episode) and stuff... well, the year does not give more of itself!

+ Single Player Mode:
Alan Wake's American Nightmare: I liked it, but it seemed very repetitive to me and it is not up to the level of the first.
Quake-II: Fantastic, I had never played the campaign and I am glad to have enjoyed an old school game. Entertaining, long, addictive, pure action and old school
Quake II-Ground Zero: Same opinion, I had a great time.

+ Multi:
Word of War Ship: This year I dared to level up some ships, especially the American battleships. Good games with techno
Word of Tanks: At the beginning of the year and at the end I gave it my all, but this year I took it more relaxed and I went a few months without hardly touching it (of course, I was in the little boats jajaja).
PUBG: I can't judge it too much because I have barely tried it with Dred and Techno, but I will have to dare a little more to get the most out of it. I ate a few bugs that threw me out of the game from time to time.

+ Various:

Minecraft: I gave it hours and hours... it's the game that I find the most pointless and the most time I have played just for looking for minerals, building nonsense, etc. Occasionally I get hooked and I go on a good binge until I loathe it and leave it parked until the next time. Fortunately, I save the same map and don't start from scratch as before, haha.

Xplane11: A few hours to try the joystick but I would like to give it more hours (I'm very bad at flight simulators.

NFS Shift 2: A few races to try the G29... just say what a package I am, my god!!
ETS2(Eurotruck Simulator 2): Well, the same, to try the G29 a little
I'm sure I left out some other game, like a simulator to try it, but I can't think of it now (I think it's Silent Hunter 3).

+ Tomb Raider Levels:

** Back to Basics:*
BTB 2018(Space): Finally I finish it in the same year!! The theme was cool, but it's not one of my favorites.
There were 8 levels to complete it: http://www.trle.net/levels/levels/2018/0618/BtB/web/index.html
BTB 2015(Greece): I still have many levels left since it's a bit longer than 2018 but I was able to play 3 or 4. But the theme of Greece I love jajaja:
http://www.trle.net/levels/levels/2015/1015/BtB/web/downloads.html
And in between I have the BTB 2016, fortunately in 2017 they didn't do the contest jajaja, otherwise I would have more delay!!

One Room Challenge (ORC 2018):

1-ORC18 - TheAlaskaIncident
2-ORC18 - Tibet
3-ORC18 - Xumongkh
4-ORC18 - Maria Dorias Lost Treasure
5-ORC18 - The Lost Temple
6-ORC18 - The Ancient Hourglass
7-ORC18 - Trapped in Venice
8-ORC18 - The Witch's Blow
9-ORC18 - Heir of Sharabhang
10-ORC18 - Lara in a Dream

Another fan contest and level creators of Tomb Raider. The truth is that I enjoyed them quite a lot, except for a couple of levels that their authors did not do anything out of this world and were somewhat criticized.

Well, I think that's all... I hope I didn't bore you, I'm a bit shy about compiling the data jajaja.

Greetings!!
