Best game I have played in AGES. Currently on Ep4.

Episode 2... it's come to Linux as a native port so don't have to play through Wine anymore.

It's a fudgeing top game so far.

Great story, great characters.

Bascially your recommendation made me seek it out Bullion.

The clip looks good do the visuals match the clip in game play mode?

Yes, but the characters and story telling are the compelling features. 

It's like a pick-a-path story and indie movie rolled together.

So Battlefield 1...it just looks amazing. Even the beta clips I've seen look better than the finished COD product.

World of Warships....any good?

because of the speed of the botes the gameplay is a lot less frenetic than WoT and the battles go for a lot longer (unless you are in a DD) -you may get around 3 battles in an hour

Carriers are the arty of WoWs and I hold them in the same (low) regard- Cruisers are the allrounders, fast and lightly armoured- most have torpedoes as well.  Battleships are slow and heavily armoured -you live for that moment where your salvo hits a cruisers citadels and completely deletes it. As Hard News says, its graphics are great -the more sedate game play suits gentlemen of a certain age - WoWs seems to treat its players with a bit more regard than the other WG titles - thier missions give good xp and often there are achievable marathon missions with a decent premium ship as a reward -also theres the attraction of captaining some of the famous ships like the Tirpitz and the Hood - i havent been playing WoWs lately thanks to Wot Blitz and Xcom War of the chosen

Played some tier I WOWS last night, sunk almost 30 ships in around 6-7 random battles...medals galore...am I suddenly a good person?  A world class player?  Am I playing real people?  What are 'bots'?  Wanna buy the 'Hood'.

Completed first scenario in Hard West on Hard, and I am enjoying it a lot. I needed only one restart during all of the missions. Thinking to go for Ironman attempt on Hard. But probably I should just go and play new unlocked scenarios.

State of Decay 2 is out on pre-order for Xbox Play Anywhere, (Xbox 1 or Windows 10 PC), you get two lots of DLC and a free car and a great weapon.

The game is playable next month. 

State of Decay was one of the best Zombie survival games ever made and this should be equally as good.

Nah I like my gore. If they make a Nightmare on Elm Street or Texas Chain Saw Massacre I might be up for it.

Yes I do have an old PC account but mainly playing on PS4 at the moment as it's a great couch co-oop game.  HC player currently at GR 83 or something although also doing season 14.

Haven't bothered with HC in D3, only in D2. Best I have GR65.
