So, Apart from WoW, what are the other games you play?

Just kinda curious on other games that you play apart from WoW.

Considering BfA isn’t as enjoyable or engaging enough for me to play much off, been playing other games more, such as Gw2, LoL, Rust, Skyrim and TF2.

MTG (magic the gathering) Arena, they just dropped a new expansion yesterday and it looks really interesting. I haven’t had a chance to play much, but soon.

GW2 and FF14. GW2 is my favorite of the 3.

Edit: Also! Super excited for Camelot Unchained when it comes out eventually, for any who enjoyed DAoC.

BL2, in anticipation of BL3 this September. I’ll definitely quit playing WoW until I’ve completed all the VH modes for BL3 and DLCs.

Elder Scrolls Online - 15 characters all maxed, 843 CP.
Skyrim - I do my own mods, tweak everything to be more powerful, challenging.
Planetside 2 - I mostly play a Medic or Engineer and have a fully upgraded Sundy.
RPG Maker MV - I dabble a bit, nothing fully produced, I just like playing around.
Starcraft - Yep, the original game, play against computers lol in FFA or team melee.

Mario Odyssey

You know, that’s a though question, because WoW is one of those games that no matter how bad it is, I always come back, even if it means I will just AFK in a city…
Sometimes(very few in between) I play League, give a bit of a break because Rakan, my main was pretty weak, they are giving him a minor rework and buffing him, so, I will probably go back to it.
But outside of that I just spend my day either on class or watching twitch when I have free time.

i really like Pillars of Eternity 2 with the turn based mode. I’m waiting for another update to it before I play through again.

I tried GW2 for a while (even bought both expansions and got most of the mounts–never did get the damn gryphon). Played it quite a bit in the month leading up to BFA, but once it launched, I sorta lost interest. I’ve also tried League a couple times, but it hasn’t really grabbed me.

I’ve been looking into FFXIV lately, but I’m hesitant to get it because I don’t want a repeat of what happened with GW2.

Overwatch
Divinity: Original Sin 2
Apex Legends
Skyrim (modded to hell because it’s meh otherwise at this stage)

That’s more or less it other than WoW right now. I’ve -played- plenty of others, but right this moment those are my go-tos.

I’ve been reading a lot recently. I’m a nerd. :frowning:

I’ll warn you right now, been playing FFXIV since ARR launched (the relaunch after the cataclysmic launch of 1.0) and the game starts out quite slow. The main story is good, especially if you’re an FF fan (tons of fan service in that game), but everything is also gated behind it, so you do HAVE to do the MSQ (main story quest) to progress in the game.

I love it and have a great time, but I know it’s not necessarily for everyone. Just wanted to give you an honest heads up.

I fell into the trap called “Stardew Valley”.
It presents itself as a simple, relaxing farming sim where you raise crops and animals. But they never mention that their goals to meet, people to win over, recipes to find, minerals to collect to make better things, mods that change your game play, and a pressing need to rebuild the Community Center to help the town…if I didn’t have alts that needed leveling I’d be trapped forever in Stardew Valley.

FFXIV doesn’t resemble anything worth playing in terms of combat until level 50ish+. It’s just too darn slow. Even at cap and with gear it’s slow, but it’s playable at that point. Personally it’s less the combat and more the super rigid endgame gearing structure that turns me off. Some RNG is fine. It’s like the exact opposite of WoW over there, drops from actual content are useless and you just grind currency to buy predetermined gear. Even in raids unless you’re doing “Savage”.

But if you enjoy the story they tell (story gets infinitely more focus there, to a fault in some peoples’ eyes), it could make up for that leveling part.

I played hundreds of hours of this. I was playing it nonstop. I had like 3 separate games going with different groups (1 solo). I ran some mods eventually. And at some point it just kinda clicked. “Wait a minute, what the the hell am I doing?”

Basically once I got to the evaluation part I felt like most of the goals fall off and if you don’t just use it for some kind of mindnumbing stress relief (I didn’t) then it ceases to be fun.

We do this sometimes. Usually just ends up being Uno, Candy Land, and other common stuff like Battleship and Guess Who. One of our group always wants to try to get us to play more complex games with 20 page rulebooks and it’s just… nty. Too much effort, if I wanted something involved I’d play an actual video game that handles the monotonous stuff for me.

I’ve been keeping myself busy in between raid nights trying to follow a skyrim modding guide.

Having your game crash because you accidentally renamed a file “snowstatue” instead of “snowsstatue” and having no clue you made that mistake is fun.
