What game are you playing until book 3?

Post by deathknight1728 »

Well I should have clarified games as some people are playing a few games. Since avadon 2 will likely come before book 3, ill likely be finished with a few games by then.

Im playing

-Avadon (2nd time)
-Geneforge 3
-Eschalon book 2

So is anyone else playing something in particular before book 3 or before the next other game that rocks the house?

For an RPG I will pick WoW back up once the new patch comes out on Aug 28th. I am also playing Divinity 2 Ego Draconis. I picked it up during the steam summer sale and am absolutely loving it.

I also am thinking of starting a new world in Minecraft.

I also have my LA Noire game that I use as a break from RPGs from time to time.

Plus, depending on my mood, I'll pick up an snes or nes game here or there as well.

Yeah Im waiting anxiously until avadon 2 as well. Really think that jeff's writing gets better with each game that comes out.

As for divinity 2, they are really great games. I prefer the original and have yet to play beyond divinity. This new game Original Sin should be interesting with the party dynamics and turn based combat. Good times.

I'm currently on a second run-through of Avadon. Am playing on normal difficulty (which is actually pretty easy), but am going solo except for the required companion quests. It quite changes the boss fights in the later stages of the game. Got the idea from Randomizer.

Also, I assume the iPad testing for Avadon II will happen in late spring or early summer. Obviously, the Mac beta has to finish before that starts.

If I'm really bored I'll probably go back and play Nethergate as a Roman.

Next I suppose I'll get back into Grimhold and try to finish it. Once we have a firm release date for Book III I'm going to replay Books I and II so everything is fresh in my mind.

Malevolence Sword of Ahkranox. Right now the kickstarter pledgers get to play it, but Alex asked me to be an additional volatile beta tester(of which he only has 10) so i was flattered and had to say yes.

Its nice to feel a part of something that you believe in and feel like you actually make a difference in how it will come out.

Updating List-

Eschalon book 2 (finishing up on my epic character) The character I am working on only has 9 in sword skill and basically is more deadly than my previous character who had 17 sword skill.

Avadon (3rd Time-This time as a Shadowalker) For some reason, this game series I cant get enough of. I find I get bored with Avernum remake but this game is just that cool. This is the last time I will replay this game, err..until Avadon 2 is out.

Cardinal Quest-(Just died in this roguelike at floor 4) An interesting game and an excellent roguelike. I find that I learn more from losing characters than I ever did playing any game.

I scooped up the SEGA Megadrive Classics 5 bundle recently when it was on sale for an itty bitty $1.24. There are like 10 games in the bundle, but I bought it for Phantasy Star 2, 3, 4. Now I have some awesome classic jRPGs to also play until Book III.

Oh, and I'm also playing Serious Sam 3: BFE, because once in a while I just want to blow a whole bunch of **** up.

Just bought Avadon last weekend and am playing it through for the first time. Good game. It's my first Spiderweb game. I might have to check out some of his other titles.
