Feliz Año Compis!!. Un año más, parece mentira que esta sea la edición 17ª, nos reunimos aquí para comentar a que hemos jugado durante el año pasado (2023).
Desde que tuve el accidente con el coche en Agosto y que por suerte no fue nada (Salvo desperfectos en el coche y el otro conductor que se largo sin saber si nos pasó algo a nosotros), veo la vida de otra manera. Con lo que me alegro de “poder crear este hilo un año más”. En fin, espero os animéis a participar y podamos cotillear sobre videojuegos para comenzar el nuevo año

Tengo que hacer memoria o mirar las partidas guardadas para hacer memoria., con lo que luego completaré mi lista. Pero lo que si puedo afirmar con mucha ilusión es que… después de más de 10 años posponiéndolo, me puse con S.T.A.L.K.E.R Clear Sky! Como pasa el tiempo, reconozco que lo fui dejando por la pereza de meterme muchas horas y que es un juego para dedicarle tiempo y disfrutar.
Como dato curioso es que lo jugué en Enero y después de más de 20 horas me lesione el hombro lo deje aparcado hasta octubre. Pero lo pude terminar, que es lo importante! Eso si, como me comentó mi buen amigo Fassou, es el más flojo de la saga.

En fin, os dejo con las anteriores ediciones, como de costumbre:

PC
World of Warcraft Dragonflight (currently playing solo). As a novelty, in patch 10.2 I decided to reroll from hunter to paladin (holy) after 17 years dedicated mainly to hunter.
World of Warcraft Classic Hardcore (I left it at the first death at level 22)
World of Warcraft Classic Season of Discovery (currently playing with colleagues)
Diablo IV (Rogue level 92 at launch, Druid level 100 in season 1, Barbarian 36 somewhat abandoned in season 2 that ends soon).
Fortnite (I usually play in Duo with my son)
Dead Island 2, I quickly hated it (RTX bundle)
The Callisto Protocol, I played quite a bit but didn't finish it (RTX bundle)
Company of Heroes 3, I didn't play for even 1 hour (Ryzen bundle)

Mobile
Pokemon Go. I still dedicate a lot of time to it, although now I go with a client modified to move at my will, catch quickly, radar, etc...
Warcraft Rumble, I played for a couple of weeks but quickly hated it.

Nintendo Switch
Some games of Mario Kart with family. Now for Christmas they are going to bring Nintento Sports, so I hope to play it with family too.

And I think that's it! As you can see, I'm still in my WoW line as in the last 17 years xD

And I think that's all! As you can see, I'm still in my WoW line as in the last 17 years xD

Well, that's because you're still hooked, right? I tried it 15 years ago, but I didn't go deep... I wonder if it hadn't been a hook and my gaming history had changed these years jajaja
Unfortunately, the damn Word of Tanks and then the Words of Warships made me dedicate many hours, so I think it's all compensated already xD

@pos_yo said in 17th Edition: What did you play in 2023?:

Everything on PC and everything on GNU/Linux either using Proton/Wine or with emulators...

Take the initiative and create a thread (maybe it's already created and I'm stepping on toes) so that people are encouraged to play more on Linux. Surely a small tutorial would be good and is appreciated
By the way, good list...joe if you've had a good year

Greetings!!

[pos_yo]

@_Neptunno_ I made a mini guide to run Alan Wake 2 on GNU/Linux. There's a learning curve but on the PeerTube channel of HardLimit I have quite a few GamePlays and I explain quite a few things but of course, I don't have everything in one video.

[_Neptunno_]

@pos_yo I already guessed there was some tutorial from you, but I couldn't remember which Post it was. Anyway, thank you very much for that contribution as it is a great help. It is one of the things I have pending, depending so much on Windows is a pain xD

Greetings!!

Weak year, but weak for the one who writes... STALKER Lost Alpha - Revisited And you almost made me play **STALKER Clear Sky** I installed several of the ones that Epic Games gives away , but I didn't even set them up I just booted them up Well, I did play a few games of the original **Mafia** to test a laptop But how is the Patio!

[Sylver]

I empathize with you, dear @Fassou. This year, due to various issues, it can be said that I have not played much. There have been some games of GTA V, the old Pokémon on GameBoy, some old arcade games on MAME, and some loose Need For Speed to disconnect. Between sadness and shame, but as my good friend @_Neptunno_ says, I am almost happy to be able to write in this thread one more year. I hope that in 2024 things improve in every way. Greetings, gamers!

@Sylver, @Fassou animaros en 2024 que a este paso voy a tener que jugar por vosotros eh?

Tendremos que abrir un post para poner series, películas, teatro, conciertos, rutas de MTB, senderismo, etc...ya que si no jugamos haremos otras cosas y puede ser interesante leeros!!

Yo este año me vi la trilogía de "El Señor de los Anillos (VE)", todas las de Harry Potter, todas las de Indiana Jones (después de ver la ultima en el cine tuve que volver a recordar mis tiempos de niño), o otras 70-80 pelis mas que no es plan poner aquí jajaja
Respecto a series, destacar "Los Soprano", todavía no la he terminado pero la tenia pendiente y me esta gustando. Otra serie que he descubierto este año y me ha encantado: Shingeki no Kyojin (Ataque a los Titanes).

@Sylver tienes que dar caña a Tomb Raider

@Fassou Animate y vuelve a jugar algun Stalker oficinal

Saludos!!

P.D: Perdonar por desviarme del tema, no pude evitarlo

[Fassou]

@_Neptunno_ said in 17th Edition: What did you play in 2023?:

@Fassou Animate and play some official Stalker again

Here Mr. Сидорович (Sidorovich), with the Norton Commander screen to disguise that he was playing STALKER Officinal in the Back Office, which must be what Mr. @_Neptunno_ is referring to

Salu2! Jugón!

It's my turn, let's see if I don't take too long, if not I'll edit it later and add more!! My favorite gaming library is Steam, however I already have so many games on Epic... but honestly I haven't even touched it jajaja life doesn't give me time.
Taking advantage of the fact that statistics of sessions, games, etc. can be obtained, here is the Steam summary of 2023:

\xa0
\xa0
Stalker CS: I enjoyed it quite a bit, but because of the great idea of adding mods to improve its gameplay, I encountered various bugs. Until I reached a point where I couldn't continue the game, so I had to reinstall it and look for a save in the area where I more or less left off. A bittersweet feeling, but hey, it had been so many years that I had been pending to resume the saga that it was worth it.

Doom 64: I had never played the first Doom, one of the most classic and iconic in its genre. Thanks to this one I was finally able to have the experience and enjoy the quintessential kill-fest. Of course I still have to play the original Doom, but I enjoyed it
The curious thing is that I started playing it on Epic Games, but since I also had it on Steam, I preferred the latter platform.

GTA V: I finished the story mode last year, but I played a few games and a while in online mode. As always, “great game”.

Quantum Break: I gifted it to myself for my birthday last year. I liked it, it's noticeable that Remedy is behind it (Alan Wake, Max Payne). But… it was a bit confusing for me because of the time-related plot (even though I love time travel stuff), very cinematic, some save points were very poorly planned. But well, overall I think it's a good game.

Portal With RTX: Simply the first Portal but getting the most out of ray tracing. It's always a pleasure to play Portal

Portal Reloaded: With the bug for Portal 1, I got into playing this mod based on Portal 2. It's very good, but I left it halfway because the difficulty level seemed too hard to me. However, maybe someday I'll get motivated to finish it.

Tomb Raider IV: The latest revelation. Well, it had been about 15 years since I played it “for the second time”. I was eager, I spent a very entertaining Holy Week and enjoyed a classic xD

Farming Simulator 2013: I have a superior version on Epic, I'm not sure if it's the 2017 or 2019. However, I was eager to play it for a few hours since in 2013 I barely played 8 hours. I ended up playing almost 100 hours jajaja
It has some shortcomings that I hope will be addressed in the new versions. I imagine that a lot of time has passed.

Serious Sam 4: I barely played a few hours, let's see if I finish it this year. It's a game that's good for thinking little and de-stressing xD Well, sometimes you get stuck and have to use your brain a bit, but the best thing (sometimes overwhelming) is the intensity of the combat.

Stalker Lost Alpha: I had more fun with it than with Clear Sky, but I got a bit saturated and left it parked. Let's see if I continue this year and finish it. There's already a thread on the forum about the game, if you like the saga it's highly recommended.

Red Dead Redemption 2: I've played a little, the tutorial and a bit more. It's a great game, let's see if I get fully into it. Many hours appear in my profile due to the tests I ran to test the PC.

GTA III Remaster: I bought it on Christmas, well, I got the complete pack. Honestly, I see it as a rip-off that I have to pay €9.99 for a game that I already have and whose improvements are very poor. I understand that someone “new” might want to sell it to you as is and at that price I think it's perfect, but for those who already have it, it's a bit of a nonsense.
I knew it already, if I bought it is because I'm a huge fan and yet I waited a year to see if they improved something, but apparently they didn't do much more, at least in GTA III.
I've played a few hours, maybe I'll get excited and finish it, but it's not my intention. I'll tell you how Vice City and San Andreas are, these are the ones I'd really like to play again completely.

As for other games outside of Steam, the summary would be this:

Minecraft: Little just to try the RTX mod. It's amazing the effects of light and water.

Word of Warships: The only multiplayer game I play. I'll have to leave it a bit more aside if I want to advance in my list of games this year xD

Tomb Raider-Custom Levels: Of course, my strongest addiction can't be missing.
I'll detail the levels I've played later in case it helps someone, or if someone gets motivated to give it a little more effort
