The answer, for me, is the same has it has been since GAFF was still up: Puzzle Quest. It's gotten to the point when I'm playing just what kind of insane min-max set up I can play with and not get slaughtered. (I.e. how much spell resistance can I forge items to have without giving up too much attack power or other nifty abilities)

...Though I have recently downloaded Cave Story... haven't played it yet, though.

Give me a game - any game - and I'll basically play it until the sun comes up. (Just keep me away from the Plants vs Zombie game. I've seen the reviews, you'd never see me again probably)

Right now my current addiction is Bejeweled. I CAN'T STOP SEEING THEM IN MY SLEEP. IT'S EVEN WORSE THAN TETRIS.

Anyway, here's something else to enjoy: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Bloody Broken Picture Telephone. Even though my games don't finish, and the pages take ages to load, I can't stop playing.

CaveStory! It will be played until the end of time because it is the best freeware game ever made ever. I played through the game twice because I ended up in the final FINAL area with only 40HP, and even in my second playthrough with 50HP I can't defeat the first boss of that final FINAL area >_<

I need to buy a rapidfire controller for my PC.

Aww, thanks! Do we have a Blush emote?

I've seen your drawings in my games, too. I'm impressed with your ability for expression. Smile

I really shouldn't be finding Sailor Moon: Another Story this fun. It's a pretty standard RPG that's mindlessly simple, the story is completely ridiculous but not any more so than a typical episode from the show... and it makes my inner child very, very happy.

And I accidentally saved over a newer save state in Earthbound, but I'm not incredibly peeved since it means I just get to play it for a couple more hours and relive Poo's delightfully creepy meditation sequence.

Oh, man! I forgot about that game! It was awesome, I played it forever. I don't think I ever finished it though.


/fangirl-moment


Anyway

Dear Bethesda,
Please release my fiance from your lovingly rendered grip. Between Fallout 3 and Oblivion, I don't think he's slept in about two months. Please, have mercy.
Thanks,

Civilization III. (What? So it's old! So what?) Seriously, that game just...hours go away. It's like I can't stop. Even when I want to stop, I can't.

Don't kill me for it, but I tried playing Katawa Shoujo (Disability Girls). It's done by a group of 4channers, so I guess that explains itself. But the sample game is actually interesting and the subject is handled a lot better than I thought it would be.

Ok, I'll bite --- what the hell is Earthbound? Is that the one also known as Mother and are the characters the little boys that shoot sparks in Smash Bros.?

Yeah, on the mark. It's a really wacky RPG... I've only played it briefly though, so I'm not the best person to tell you about it.

Yes, Earthbound is a SNES game that was released as Mother 2 in Japan. Ness from Smash Bros. is the main character. Lucas (the one introduced in SSBB) is the protagonist of Mother 3, a GBA game that wasn't released in the US but was translated very thoroughly and impressively by fans.

Basically, they're quirky, amusing-but-at-times-disturbing early JRPGs (the battle system is similar to the Dragon Quest/Dragon Warrior games) in a Western setting (as imagined by Japanese people). It has a frighteningly dedicated (and suspiciously nice) fanbase and a cult following, and it's notable for being a JRPG that is set in a suburban, modern world rather than generic fantasy-land.

And Mother 3 will make you cry.

I saw a video of the final battle of the first (second?) game. Talk about nightmare fuel.

I never liked Earthbound. I don't begrudge anyone else liking it, but I've just never seen what gets it all the love it gets.

Since I bought it, I must have played "The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion" for in excess of 10,000 hours.

Okay, it's been three years at least, but even so there are parts of that game I've never touched, dungeons I've never played and at least one part of a major plotline I've never bothered with.

In case you're wondering, I have trouble with the Assassin's Guild sections. I just can't make my characters kill innocent people. And I've only done the Thieves Guild all the way through once.

Ah, but the Dark Brotherhood is so much fun! Go on, slaughter some people. Sithis demands it!


...what, me hooked on it? Whatever do you mean? *Hides that murdering and thieving Argonian who now seems to have set his mind on becoming a hero all of a sudden*

Eh, even though I'm a rabid Earthbound fan, I don't blame you. The series is more of an acquired taste than anything. One thing I give the series credit for, is that the fans channel their rabid tendencies towards some of the best things, but they've had their fair share of hell-fan moments. *coughcouchPKCallincough*

Oh, and here's one I'm sad no one mentioned: Yume Nikki. It looks simple enough, but it has a shitload of utter wtf-ness to play with. Not to mention the places you explore are not only huge, but they repeat, making it difficult as fuck to complete quickly. I have come to love this game so fucking much. Excitedplz

I've had the prequel, Morrowind for nearly five years, and between the sidequests and the mod community, I still haven't finished the main quest, or any of the faction storylines.

I spent my high school days playing Earthbound and Chrono Trigger over and over again. God almighty, Mother 3 was sad. The fanslation and story are both incredible. I won't forget the Earthbound series as long as I live.

And I will try not to kidnap anyone. Kidnapping is wrong!

Garys Mod, especially with Wire-mod.

You can make near anything on it, and wire it up to do (again) near anything :D

Check these out:

Fully functioning Replicator [not in appearance, but function]

It's just an amazing thing.
