What have you been playing my fellow 30+?

Finished Burnout paradise and GTA4 CE again and now I feel empty

test

unc still playing digital toys aimed at kids and teenagers :skull: :skull:

Doom 3 and Assassin's Creed Shadows. Waiting for the next patch for Shadows to drop next week so that I can complete it as well, finishing up Doom 3 and I'll start Anno 1404 afterwards. Feels good man.

modding skyrim

Just beat labryinth of the demon king and now I'm playin expedition 33 and gonna try out tainted grail afterwards.

feel like playing la noire

waiting for elden ring nightreign and sf6 elena/season 3 announcement.
just bought space marine 2 and it seems like an alright game to play while I wait for those. I want tainted grail but I don't wanna pay for it and I've been out of the piracy scene for a long time.
just beat pocky and rocky reshrined last week. game's fuckin hard.

Nothing I've been grinding but even making 300 dollars a day I still have to be living in a motel. I have my deck and an emulation machine good phone but games just aren't it anymore just make me think cheap bread and circus

Expedition 33

What have you been playing my fellow 30+?

Visual Studio Code

Stellaris for 9 years now.

nothing
pretty much only played Total Warhammer 3, my GPU fried, don't feel like wasting money on my now 7 year old computer but upgrading to 1440p feels to expensive for the use I give it, so I'm stuck.
In fact if not for Total War I'd completely give up on pc gaming

wish that were me. quit my job a month ago and it has been finding a new one

P3 Reload

DOAV Prism is great for reminding myself I like boobs

It's a sad state after seeing what's on offer and you still go "I'd rather be working"

Finishing Yakuza 0

what can I say, bills pile up and If i want to live my neet dream when I am older I am going to have to work for it sadly.

Honestly just buy an apu and be done with it. Though a 9060 xt isn't unreasonable for the price.

But yeah, even something like the legion go for only 450 dollars will get you a fully contained pc that will play even slop like monster hunter wilds at lowest settings 60fps with both framegen and upscaling.

The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy. Got 44 endings so far and I’m still working on/looking for the true ending. Enjoying it so far.

I always ask if my boomer boss is okay. He's a fun guy to work with.

RDR2, it's sort of amazing, the level of detail and graphics but so many annoyances as well

Been playing Tropico 6 and Doorkickers 2 lately.

That anime was dogshit.
The Yakuza massacre was pretty cool though.

I need to finish XCX:DE but between work and my plamo backlog I don't have a lot of time.

Man With a Mission generally makes banger opening theme's
Reception for Iron Blooded Orphans was mixed, but Raise Your Flag is so fucking good

framegen and upscaling

kys

Co-op'd through stranger of paradise with a friend, but I've mostly been playing yugioh master duel & ZZZ lately.

Been playing WoW classic. It's nice to relax after work. Put a show on my second monitor and fish or quest for maybe an hour or two while I just zone out.

LAST.jpg - 1112x156, 91.69K

Just finished South Park Stick of Truth, first time playing it. I haven't watched it in years and it was shallow but decent fun.

No idea what i'm going to play next.

Timesplitters future perfect just because i remember playing years ago. Fun game.
Emojis dont work here zoomer retard.

Is Ghost of Tsushima good?

its ok to mid its basically an ubisoft game

About to finish Suikoden 1, was a game I always wanted to play since I beat 2, but couldnt till now.

The Citadel, Enshrouded (when I have motivation), and also started a new project nexus arena run (my 11th) with wizard man since I felt like throwing fireballs everywhere.

I was worried that's what it would be, will skip. Thanks.

Oblivion remaster and Space Marine 2. Looking forward to getting my switch 2 delivered in two weeks. Gonna play some of that Mario Kart.

yearly armored core emulator marathon
stopping at 5-and-beyond because damn that shit sucks fuck you scout modo

couldnt til now

actually paying for the steamslop demake

And you call yourself a boomer? I don't think so, kiddo. The fact that you claim to be over 30 and never properly emulated PS1 games is a big red flag buddy. Nice try trying to weasel your way in here with the big boys, but I think it's best if you go hang out with your fellow 20 year old zoomers in another thread.

What have you been playing my fellow 30+?

I took a break from playing CRPGs to finally play Nier Automata. I have been meaning to play it since it came out (which it did like a few months ago, right?), but never got around to it. I just finished all the main endings and it's definitely an above average game. It gets some minus points for only working decently with KB+mouse with a mod and the somewhat tedious 9S segments consisting of spamming the repetitive hacking mini game.

offer legitimate advice on how to get back into gaming without breaking your bank

response is told to kms

You first, absolute turd of a fucking person who clearly doesn't even like videogames.

Can't be the cool uncle without my digital toys

I put the most of my gaming time towards fighting games but I finally think i'm too old for them now

can't react to shit

execution is just getting worse

all of the options in games now means every character has some gay ass unreactable can opener mixup option

playerbase either consists of trannies or whiny faggots (like me)

I'm finally working through The Phantom Pain after playing it for half an hour on launch and never booting it up again and its actually kind of fun. I hate the massive open world because it doesn't actually offer anything and still think the game would be much better with liner levels but its still kind of charming. I wish we still got big budget stealth titles and not half baked "stealth" games that are just RPGs with a crouch walk button

I’m only 39, that’s still pretty young.

Beat E33 last week, I've been balls deep into the new Fantasy Life game since. Never played animal crossing or a "cozy" game before, but this shit has me by the balls Laura best girl

39

still pretty young

can't react to shit

I gave up on FPS years ago because of this. I can't aim for shit anymore. I was never very good at it, but my teen self would utterly obliterate me.

Fantasy Life i. It’s been incredibly comfy and fun

I am 33 and I feel like I should retire

I am 33 and I feel like I should retire

I'm 35. Don't worry, that feeling only gets stronger

t. Coomer freak

Just started up Fantasy Life i.

just started playing the new one, how are the older games in the series? Worth checking out?

I know

Civ 5. I think I can consistently beat immortal now

it sucks because i never really took a break from playing fighting games, and still play other shit on the side, but just noticing that i'm having trouble blocking shit that i had no issues doing so just a handful of years ago is quite a jarring experience.

what do you play these days to scratch that FPS itch, or did you just move on entirely?

started FFVII for the first time recently. it's purdy gud, no wonder theres so many fanatics about it. got to the part yuffie the little slut stole my marteria and i actually got a little flustered (external circumstance adding to the frustration). this brat is in need of serious correction.

playan

cvs2 project justice and power stone. i just bought a drum kit so i can play drummania at home too

armored core emulator marathon

that sounds fun
i liked scan modo
sento modo

Original is my 2014 Game of the Year and I've heard this one is just as good with more. Can't really talk about my own experiences with the new one though since I literally just started a few hours ago and only just got access to starting a Life

but so many annoyances as well

they really knew how to take the wind ouf the sails in this one. like jesus christ, is it a sim game or action slop, is it a movie or sandox? what a schrödinger

I never play multiplayer anymore, but I do fire up some single player experiences, like Bioshock, from time to time. I guess that's not really an alternative for fighting games?

on a f2p game kick, so genshin star rail wuwa even checked out zzz. wasted 20+ hours in the game of thrones mobile game, played palia and checked out infinity nikki too. tried girls frontline 2 and just finished my missions for marvel rivals
i also tried tainted grail, game is so bad i cant even force myself to keep playing, its just bad

atm dunno what else to play, might start game pass sub to check out doom and e33 next seems there are no big f2p game events for 2 weeks, everything is waiting on june 12th time frame, which i assume is the next quarter

My backlog keeps growing and I already know that I'll never play most of my games.
I feel constant pressure to pick good ones to play as my time and energy is limited.
It has never been more over.

the GoT gacha was such a massive disappointment

rdr2

Pseudoregalia, Haste, Expedition 33

its not gacha , but i had no hype for it, just a new f2p game to waste a couple days in. i stayed a lot longer in the game because they accidentally gave everyone every single p2w pack lol. so i had like all the cosmetics and convenience features for free

A true autist

I feel constant pressure to pick good ones to play as my time and energy is limited.

I've been feeling this for a few years. It's useful because there's many games in the release window I fee like playing but if I don't they pass by and I end up not caring about them. Some stick in my mind though so when I play them it's because I really want to.

He doesn't know

Anyone play Fields of Mistria? Is it worth getting into now or should I want for 1.0?

6 am wake up, drive to work

usually 5 pm arrive back home

eat dinner my wife prepared, bond with baby daughter 1 y.o.

8 pm, usually spending time with wife, once in 3 days, she decides to sit on her phone so I can game

can't decide what to start

Silksong is the only game I wait for, what else to play?

Metaphor, first time I play a game from Atlus, so far I'm liking it but FF and DQ are vastly superior.

Oblivion on PS5

Made a Cleric (Blunt, Restoration) and did Knights of the Nine, Mages Guild, Fighter's Guild and Arena and explored the world for about 60 hours. I made a new character (Unarmored, Hand to Hand) to do Thieves Guild, Dark Brotherhood and Story mode. It's been fun, I'm sad about Hand to Hand nerfs so it no longer ragdolls enemies upon Fatigue loss. Watching an NPC jerk around every punch like they got Cattle Prodded in Deus Ex almost makes up for it.

whore leeches off him and does literally nothing while he slaves away his remaining years on earth

oblivion remastered. the fixed level scaling is actually really nice, my last through plays of vanilla oblivion i would always stay as low level as possible to avoid the bullshit, so it's nice to not have to worry about it.
also i never realized how fucking good azura's star is. my god, this thing feels like cheating!

fuck every now and then I forget to mention Im not a burger
Shes not a whore, she wont """divorce rape""" me, she takes perfect care of our baby, she is the love of my life
Now, the remaster of Dawn of War looks good, what we think Anon Babbleros?

wife doesn't like games?

maybe I'm autistic but it sounds like a great opportunity to play co-op games or something. EDF, console Diablo, Dokapon Kingdom, Overcooked or Mario Party or some shit. I play lots of weird casual games I normally wouldn't with my gf and it's fun to do things together.

Now, the remaster of Dawn of War looks good, what we think Anon Babbleros?

Looks good. Hoping total warhammer 40k is also good.
Mostly been mainlining Total Warhammer 3 and just started Metaphor. In the first 'real' dungeon and its pretty fun so far. Luv me job system games so hope this stays good.

People who don't age gracefully are all druggies in my neighborhood.

no it's not, you old fart

"""divorce rape"""

why put that in quotes? my brother in law is getting raped right now, I can see it happen in real time, he's completely fucked

Does anyone remember Elements: The Game? It was a flash tcg. I have fond memories of it. The app fucking sucks and is full of bugs.

finishing up elden ring after years of putting it off to get ready for nightreign

then i will get back to finished the fanslation of front mission 1 before i start 2 & 3

fuck i love old games they really don't make them like they used to

It Takes Two or Stardew are wifecoopkino

"finished" COE33, tried Captain Blood demo, thinking what should I play next.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (pacing myself, on highest difficulty, almost done with Act 2), Doom Dark Ages (mid-game but fun enough at 150% game speed with fastest projectiles. Basically Halo), trying to talk my wife into another run through of Remnant II.
But primarily we both are getting into Warhammer 40k tabletop. She bought some shit for Necrons and I got a T'au/Kroot. We're about 80% done building the models and will probably start painting (airbrush) soon. We have a lot more paints now, primarily from Vallejo and ProAcryl. Looking forward to the painting. Assembling is a pain with my oldman hands but wife is 13 years younger and loves it.

brandy alexanders friday night with wife

she doesnt put out

fucking rage all saturday

garden my little heart out to let the fury out

wife gets the hint

blow a load so hard into her I can feel it through her stomach

wake up, grab more gardening shit from lowes

storming like hell, fixing shit in the house

molest the wife whenever I see her

grope and drag her into the bathroom

going to cook a pork shoulder tomorrow if it isnt storming

wife better be ready for tonight

I’m playing Factorio Space Age, Im about to make a satellite above Aquilo to produce iron and copper ore to turn that shit hole into a shit home

Based I use to play Tau back in 3rd edition. Thinking of getting back into it with a marine army though because I am a basic faggot nowadays.

Finally got around to playing Rocksmith, wish I had listened to the guy 10 years ago who told me to try it.

bleed.jpg - 1920x1080, 319.22K

tbf, if you spend 450 dollars and still have to use shit like framegen just to get minimum acceptable performance, you really should reconsider the whole thing.

What anime is this?

Oh and while Vallejo does great paints I wouldn't overlook Army Painter as their newer fanatics line is a good range too.

Iron Blooded Orphans was one of the few gundams I actually watched all the way through.

40 here, don't know what to play to be honest. I've been tempted to pick up BG3 and Clair Obscure but I don't feel like I have the time now, so most of my time is being spend just doing dailies on genshin and zzz with the occasional helldivers session when the boys manage to get together all because I have to be a caretaker for my mother with dementia cause my 2 other siblings don't even care if she's still alive, let alone help

I did this last year and it was amazing.
I really liked just blowing shit up in style.

I don't know what the fuck they were thinking with that scan mode bullshit.

Been playing through RE: Outbreak a couple times over on lonewolf and with some buddies. Moving onto file 2 soon

anything made by relic

good

now I know you will end up a cuck...

Should I replay Master of Arena for the first time in like two decades or finally play AC6?

6 is ass

Waiting on Nightrein next week and SF6 season 3 news afterwards.

have absolutely no time right now due to being in the education sector

I'll buy oblivion once the coast is clear. Maybe start with Siralim or payday 3 again depending on which update hits first. Wish I had more time and energy again. 39 btw.

I sincerely hope you guys actually stick with the painting. Lots of people get into Warhammer and they spend massive amounts of money on like 20 boxes (like you guys). Then they realize how much work it is and don't even get the minis built, let alone painted.

Everything hurts and I cant afford a house

Then they realize how much work it is and don't even get the minis built, let alone painted.

People don't even build the minis sometime? That's absurd to me.

barely played the series as a kid but had a phenomenal time with 6. had a lot of fun with the narrative; they really get a lot of mileage with just VA

weapon balance might not be the greatest, but with pve who cares. i am indifferent to the stagger system at worst; thought it was fine

I just finished building and painting everything I have from 3rd edition. Im never going to finish the new shit my wife gave me last year

After E33, I've started reading Fate stay/night after somehow not reading, watching or playing anything Fate related at all until now, since I liked Witch on the Holy Night just before E33. Oh I also played through Quake 2 & 4 recently.

FFXIV, helldiver 2, and space marines 2. Looking forward to the update for FFXIV in two days and Elden ring night reign

I don't know how you all are playing Clair Obscur with the catalog rife with spoilers. I put the game on hiatus after seeing them, and now I'm slugging along.

What have you been playing?

I know what I haven't been playing. Virtua Figher 5. I haven't felt like putting in the time to learn it, especially since I have to bust the stick out to switch over to it.

I think I remember it. I recall playing a water and grass deck

I bought the game immediately as soonas I heard the soundtrack.

Also you can ignore threads you know.

Painting is one thing though, not building them is another. I mean, I've never built a warhammer mini but I look at this and I'm just like

I could build a full army in less than an hour if I wanted to

trying to complete godhome in HK
I kinda hate it

turned 30 a few months ago

have nothing to show for it

have to start being careful if I hit on women because now an age gap is weird, even if legal

I close my eyes and it's 2015 again. I'm tired.

what have you been playing

My internet has been down for weeks, but I played rune factory 5 while waiting for the next one.

Also you can ignore threads you know.

scroll through catalog

see endgame/lategame screenshots and a spoiler reference in the OP

"Just ignore it bro"

Yeah, no. It's not that simple.

If you glue, remove mould lines, and use some green stuff to fill holes, it takes significantly longer, especially with finicky models with thin rods/hands.

Just finished Styx: Master of Shadows and its sequel, Shards of Darkness. Phenomenal stealth games, SoD especially. Provided my PC meets the recommended specs, I'll be buying Blades of Greed day 1.

Reddit is full of those people. So many of the Warhammer subreddits especially are full of posts where someone blows like 1500 dollars on Warhammer boxes. "Hi guys I am new to the hobby how did I do". I do think that lot of the stereotypes about Warhammer being expensive comes from the consoomers who drop thousands of dollars on boxes at once, even if they've never painted or built a single miniature or scale model in their entire life.

I could build a full army in less than an hour if I wanted to

IDK If bait. You'd probably struggle to do that mini in half an hour if you've never done it before. And that's not accounting cleaning mouldlines and gap filling.

Spend most of my weekend with 'Tainted Grail' ... holy kino, I'll give it at least a month.

art.jpg - 500x348, 26.1K

I'll be back on XIV again when that hits for the first time since like August.
Fingers are crossed that the new story content isn't as ass as DT base was.

My lower back hurts a bit today.

Should I play Styx or Sly Cooper?

Ive been working for 10+ years (self employed) and Im considering going back to being a NEET
I would like to keep working but the business is going slowly to shit and I hate people more than ever in my life. Guess Ill have a lot of time to game afterwards

IDK If bait.

Not bait at all, I build, paint erase seams and repair all the time. I just haven't done a warhammer mini.

im 34 and realized a major folly was trying to get laid/pick-up rather than just socialize normally. it's really nice now actually, esp when someone pursues you without trying. youth is attractive but my cutoff is 27 y/o's going on 28

I'm 30 and my work oneitis is a college girl maybe 19 or 20. It doesn't even feel like an age gap because I'm a KHV who stopped emotionally developing as a teenager. I never got a first kiss so in my mind a relationship is an awkward but cute college couple.

017.png - 482x338, 186.96K

You're suppose to stop being a fag at 30, so who gives a shit about age discourse? Young zoomer males and older women? Wow

Shiet nigga

Replaying ME1 again. Being salty about the sequels. Longing for another scifi game like it

I've never played Sly Cooper, but if you enjoy pure stealth, where you'll want to reload a save when you get caught instead of engaging in combat, you can't go wrong with Styx.

I finished that for the first time the other day.
While pretty to look at I think gameplay wise it starts to really fall apart with Surface Tension and beyond.

Ive seen a lot of that lately. Its tempting, but I'm out of a job right now and planning on getting Stellar Blade and Nightreign. I might delay one of those though for Tainted Grail.

Not counting the Ver Ka Wing Gundam I have coming next week I have 7 kits in my backlog
The only reason I haven't built them is because I want to try the plamo tuber thing and I haven't gotten everything ready yet
But yeah, looking at a mini I can't see how people can't just settle down after work or something and build a few for like an hour with some music or something. They probably just bought it to post and brag only to return them the next day.

look at time

2pm

watch a ten minute video not even all the way

look at time again

2:30pm

If you're watching it on YouTube on a TV or console then it's all those fucking ads.

Lord of the Rings Online.
It’s comfy and easy. Just got through Moria.

Based playback speed 0.25 enjoyer

We did the painting certification course and LOVED painting. I can't wait. We're almost done with the models. I've been itching to paint. We did most of the painting classes with brushes so were going to do brush paint. But now we're going to do 50/50. Priming with a air, base colors with air, fine detail work with brush and then glow bits with the airbrush at the end and shading will probably be just cheating with oil.
Like I said we're probably 80-90% done with everything as of last night. We both have one medium box left. We have an Iwata Eclipse airbrush, an AS186 compressor (outrageously quiet) and a vent hood going out the window already setup in our game room. Did a few tests on some army guys I had laying around. Painting is easily going to be the best part of this process. I do NOT like making the models (thought I would since I love Gunpla kits so much). They are so much lower quality than Gunpla but it is relaxing sanding down the rough edges/mold lines with godhand sand sponges (and we had two godhand nippers already from gunpla so all the tools we needed).

Replayed both Portal games recently. Not really doing anything new until I get my Switch 2. Honestly been mostly lurking Anon Babble hoping to discuss random bullshit with women since I like hearing cute girl voices discuss random bullshit. Only girl so far to do VC with was mental with annoying voice though.

last game I played was oblivion remaster

If you're lonely look for a femboy. Most of the zoomer femboys do the best girl voices.

revanced

2 have passed

wake up up I fell asleep

painting certification course

What the fuck.

They are so much lower quality than Gunpla

That's because they don't use ABS plastic.

I don't remember if Surface Tension was this long but lets just say in Black Mesa it is fucking LONG

If you're watching it on YouTube on a TV or console then it's all those fucking ads.

Wait you guys are 30+ and don't have your own DNS at home to route your TV/console through? Seriously pihole is insanely simple to setup and you can natively block ads on all devices in your home network.

I am le old

Its monotonous building 16 of the same dude for a squad and its more than just snapping them together. I could do the same with a gundam model if I just slap the pieces together like I did in middle school

Yeah. They made several chapters long as fuck.

Just started Dante's Inferno. Holy shit.

finished Mullet Madjack and played some Parking Garage Rally Circuit last night. Probably gonna play some Iron Saga VS tonight when I get home assuming I don't just go to bed as soon as I get home because I couldn't sleep

KHV

Wut?

google

Koi Herpes Virus?
Yeah if you live near a Warhammer official store they do free paint tutorials and they are mulitple sessions if you want them to be. They provide free paint, brushes, and models to paint along with instructions. Depends on how deep you want to go but it was fun. They call it a "Painting License" which is the most British shit I've ever heard. The guy who runs the store is Scottish and I heard 12 different manchildren come in and ask if he was British and he'd look so sad and say, "Uhh... yeah..."

Could never get it to work on wifi

Thanks doc.

Was playing the new season of Project Diablo 2 but I'm probably done with it for now. Finishing Doom Dark Ages playthrough on Nightmare then get back to my Oblivion run to finish that up. Also occasionally playing Tomb Raider 3.

trying for like the 10th time to play through Skyrim, but it's getting hard. I just did Vaermina's quest and got the Skull and it's fucking shit.

kissless hugless virgin, newfriend.

Wait you guys are 30+ and don't have your own DNS at home to route your TV/console through?

I just don't watch on tv/console so I never had to.

are any of you wizards?
i'm scared of becoming one, i might have to fuck a fat ugly old woman at work

Could never get it to work on wifi

That's the easiest part! Set your wireless router to use your pihole DNS as primary.

Yeah, but then shit like youtube and whatnot wouldn't work on my phone.

Take the integrated graphics pill
Play only game that run on it
Emulate on it and catch up to those interesting games you never got around to
t. Dante's Inferno poster

What game taught to you to type? For me it was Infantry Online

reactions can be trained, if you want to. If you go balls in, you'll want to practice until it's locked into Type I thought where it's automatic and without thought. Alternatively fuck reacting and just be a pitbull in a pen with an infant and rush them down and enforce your gameplan and maul them

I'm 30 and my work oneitis is a college girl maybe 19 or 20.

Did you plan on asking her out, or doing a move?

It doesn't even feel like an age gap because I'm a KHV who stopped emotionally developing as a teenager.

By this logic you could just try to talk to a highschooler instead. Fags that don't let go of their v-card are just conflating their non-discovered hebefilia honestly

Playing Expedition 33, this game reminds me of the good old days of video games and why I used to love them. So fucking good.

Runescape, it also taught me buy low sell high and don't fall for scams

I learned to type in middle school, we had classes dedicated to it from there it was through Maplestory

Fired up resident evil 2 on the deck. We're up at the cabin. This weekend. Might stop though. Should l play RE zero first? I already beat remake last year. Never played zero before.

Gonna emulate some PS2 kino.
Still desperately looking for a job. Was able to get a small free lancing job but I don't think that will be enough to pay all my bills. Even so it is better than nothing and I don't have to work 8 hours a day.

why don't you guys just post on Anon Babble it could use more discussion instead of boomers pissing their pants about the Saturn

Playing Tainted Grail, keep having autism on builds, already burned through 3 respec potions. Dreading Tuesday since I have to work 10 days in a row. My job pays like complete shit too.

idk, I just like posting on Anon Babble to keep up with vidya shitposting. I forget the vr exists, much like most boards

I hate Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz HD
