Wasteland 2 is currently making me feel like a horrible human.  So many people die because of what I don't do :-(

Playing Kerbal Space Program again with joy and frustation. I've successfully managed to strand three ships in high orbit trying to get back from the moon. I'm trying to find a way to do enough research that I can build a rescue ship to come and get them so I can bring back their sweet, sweet moon research data.

Between the Payday 2 Death Wish difficulty update and Shadowrun Returns: Dragonfall coming out today I'd say my weekend is looking pretty busy.

I decided to set up a community for Fans of RPPR on Diablo III.

Please feel free to join up if you guys are so inclined.

Recently played and completed the new Shadowrun Returns campaign, Dragonfall, and it's absolutely amazing. Blows Dead Man's Switch - which was the launch campaign - out of the water. Lots of fun combat, twists and  great characters. Haven't played SR, or didn't really like DMS? Go get Dragonfall and rejoice.

Also took a shot in the dark on Loren the Amazon Princess, which turned out to be a delightful, minimalistic (read "old school-ish") RPG with a big cast of very likeable characters that all grow as the game continues and by interacting with the player. Very entertaining combat, which has different combos and interesting layers. It's rather cheap as well, and I got more than 30 hours out of my first play-through and intend to replay it again in the future.

Ah Ross has begun the desnazzification of all thing forum related.

The great snazz purge of 1812 wasn't enough satiate his urges. Now it has returned.

BUM BUM BUUUUUUUM

I bought last Friday Scrolls from Mojang (the one who did Minecraft). It is still in Beta, but run already smoothly.

For 15$ you have a very nice card/boardgame.
The principle is that you are a "Scrolldier" dueling other opponent. You have a deck made of 50 scrolls which are either creature/structure, spell or enchantment, costing more or less ressources. They is 4 factions (Order - soldier and paladins, Energy - automaton, gun and catapult, Growth - wolf, druid and beast, Decay - undeads, curse, poisons).

The dueling happens on a board where positionning and strategy is as important as the scroll you are playing.

I really got into this game for various reasons:
- Good mix of strategy (building your deck) and tactics (deploying your ressources efficiently)
- A little part of card collecting without being too overwhelming and rarity does not mean more power.
- Nice interface, nice animation/pictures
- Pay once - you can spent more money to buy more cards, but when you play against opponent (IA or playerys), you are getting gold pieces to make your purchase in line. Base on my initial start, it is enough that you don't have to fork more when playing
- Possibility to play against AI (three level), campaign of increasing challenge allowing you to get more gold in-game, possibility to play draft or constructed.

Negative point:
- The initial learning curve is a bit steep as the tutorial is very brief, missing - amongst other things - the list of every special ability cards have (poison, curse, piercing, about 20 of them).


In my view, better than MtG (much more wallet friendly), better than Heartstone (getter graphics, more strategy).
I recommand it highly.

Reaper of Souls is now live.

Played it just a bit last night.

It's cool, the Crusader is fun and the cinematic for the Angel of Death is pretty BA.

I recently reset my quests on my Barbarian so now I have to run through the game to get back up to snuff.
