Just finished The Last of Us 2.

One of the best games I've ever played. It lacks the intricate story-telling from the first game, but makes up for it in the environment design, insane graphics and fantastic soundtrack.

Not sure what to move on to next. What's everyone else playing right now?

Does some nerd know how(or where) to cash out of CS skins without getting scammed? I have around 200€(steam price) in skins. I think it's time to sell them and proceeding with the next step of never touching online games again.

Anyone play DMZ? I know cod is riddled with hackers at an all time high right now, and this game mode in particular has no support but man it still kicks ass.

Yeah, DMZ is still a blast despite all the issues. The tension of extracting never gets old!

i want to play minecraft, but survival is simply too much time grinding etc. to produce results for someone who isn't a no life and creative just doesn't feel like you've accomplished anything.

I keep dreaming of a mega fusion game. Imagine GTA crossed with steep, decenders, skate 3, sledders and MX vs
ATV. Just all the best action sport games implemented into GTA. I just want do a K-fed then pull the glock out and wreak havoc. Basically a Xankilla simulator without all the hours at Whole Foods

Its taken me a few tries to actually get into it

Like any other survival game you have to give yourself tasks to do for each play session because the game won't do that for you really beyond some quests that serve to teach you the game systems


I've only done a little bit of the survival mechanics but after getting some real basic resource farms going the survival mechanics have pretty much taken a back seat and I spend all my time exploring worlds and scanning animals


NMS is probably is for sure in the best state it's ever been in but is still definitely not an easy game to get into

csfloat, csmoney, bitskins. You wont get the full 200 back since steam value is more than actual, probably get 80% of the value at least.

I got like 150 from them. Turned out you needed to confirm your identity to cash out but no way I'm sending them a picture of my ID or some shit so I just pressed the donate to Ukraine button. I hope it actually went to Ukraine and not to the greedy bastards of the site.

I loved Burning Shores, hella cool.

Just wish I did it before starting my ng+, you get a really sick OP weapon at the end that would've been sweet to bring back to the start of the game
