New gaming rig arrives this week but being out of the loop re PC games for some time, what's worth getting? Keen for multiplayer action as well.

Have an Xbox One so not really interested in games that I can play on that already...

Battlefield 4, CS:source or CS:GO, Dota 2, DayZ, Hearthstone, TF2, Titanfall, Diablo 3 list goes on

EDIT: Oh yeah forgot about payday 2, pretty sure it's PC only, cops and robbers type deal, you can take hostages and tie them up and make heists etc

Another awesome looking game that's coming out soon is Rainbow six siege

Take a look:

Dragon Age 3 if you ever enjoyed BioWare stuff, can pick up the first 2 pretty cheap now to play through and saves 'carry over' and will do again for DA3, same with Mass Effect. GTA5 is coming to PC at the end of the year, which means mods! Would be worth getting it for PC over the Xbone IMHO. And +1 for Team Fortress 2, so much fun!!

Haven't played sc2 in ages, I kind of funny that people are "looking forward" to playing it. The only thing worth doing is ladder play if you are into that.

LOL I played the original SC to death back in the day, then played SC2 for about a year and forgot about it.
What I meant was I look forward to to new DLCs (haven't even played Swarm yet)... I enjoy the story modes, as strange as that may seem to some. :)

DH is my main on T6. Crusader, WD, Wizard on T5. Barb is suffering on T4. Monk is, I dunno lol. Don't play him enough.

My DH is pretty much where I want him (Marauder set with fire). Crusader just needs higher dps, a better main hand (Darklight is low dps 1H) and/or shield (Final Witness). His CD has been lowered a lot so he can constantly go on Akarat.

Kadala is the bane of my existence. I've gotten every legendary/set pair of gloves in the game from her, some multiples except for T&T. Playing a WD around torment 3 at the moment, my damage is awesome but toughness is horrendous. Haven't been on in a while, mainly because of the destiny beta.

Nope, not even once! Its been suggested I try to move to a 2h (which I tried last night) but whilst resource efficiency is better my dps is down a lot. I do have magefist/cindercoat/hexing pants.

I love campaigns in all games. HotS has an AWESOME Campaign, but I mean who doesn't love Kerrigan?

Also someone made this song and used scenes from WoL and HotS campaign, such a sick song and video about Kerrigan :D You probably wont get a lot of the lyrics if you havent played HoTtS though.

They haven't said yet but will probably announce it at Blizzcon. Maybe 2015/16 because HotS only came out last year. HotS is a MUCH harder game 1v1 but I also find it a lot more fun. There are a lot more options in the current meta.

Another game I'm following atm is Star citizen. Its amde by the guy who made all the wing commander games and its basically split into 2 games afaik. The first is a free roaming game where you can transport goods or be a pirate or do whatever you want and the second is you will be a fighter pilot on these huge military carriers that go through space and do missions with other pilots. It looks pretty crazy and the graphics are really good.

In terms of Diablo 3 I have to say on release I enjoyed it but was disappointed at the lack of customization (I didnt like that you could chop and change your build, to me it took a lot out of the game becayse in D2 you could build multiple of the same character into different classes). But to be honest I went back when RoS was released and they have really made the game better, getting rid of the Auction house was a great idea aswell as removing the amount of shit drops you would get.

volt_bite
11-08-2014, 04:27 PM
That is ironic, don't you mean you are disappointed with the flexibility of customisation? I understand, but I think the point is you can still play different builds however its is more gear based rather than skill based. In that, you can change your build to suit your gear. For someone who doesn't want to spend huge amounts of time leveling up the same character to change different builds, it is awesome.

RoS made the game 1000% better. AH going was godsend, if they kept it they would've just hampered further game development and notwithstanding inflation was so high LOL.

I may have said it wrong but I meant that I likely how you would have to plan a build out, like it rewarded people who put effort in. The new style is much more geared towards casual players but IO do agree with what you are saying. Gear is prime now and I love all the new types of gear they have released= makes the game so much more fun.

No way, I put in a lot of hours (usually played daily for about 3 hours min) over the last 2 months just to gear up my DH with one piece of gear taking 3 weeks to find.

If anything it was more geared towards Casual gamers before the expansion. The AH made sure of that!

I meant compared to Diablo 2 where you had to plan out a build in advance, in Diablo 3 you can swap and change stats and skills as you go on the same character. No doubt RoS has added a lot more play time for hardcore gamers.
