So the title says it all. Atleast once per day (notices will be given if I somehow cannot do this) I will suggest a game from my unusual steam library or other such place and link you to a video of it.
Day 1: Far Cry
The first in what basically became a wilderness survival simulator with guns, this game gave me a LOT of fun, and I'm currently logged at 262(!!!!) hours of play time. I watched my Dad, and then my brother play through this game when I was too young to go on the PC, and it was the second PC game I ever played.
Yes, the graphics are now pretty dated, the online is kinda bad, and some levels are just plain DIFFICULT, it is still reaaaaally fun. Atleast to me, anyway. Excerpt mission 6: Treehouse (AKA: s*** starts going down)
Day 2: League of Legends (Dare accepted t(o-ot)
So yeah. That. Contrary to what one (or millions) may think, this game is not just dota with 'different' graphics, and nor is it a dumbed down version of dota. It is completely its own game, and most of the 'nooby' additions like "free escapes at lvl 1" are not op in the slightest when EVERYONE has them. And by the by, this thing has a 300 second cooldown with no Cool Down Reduction. Not exactly a free escape.
Enough on that.
I started off hating it for no reason, but then I was bored one evening cause steam was acting up, so I decided to get League so that I could atleast hate it for a logical reason.
And ohhhh man. I got Meat Hooked! All stages of the game are so different from dota. There are no "faceless void" level carries, some only have that 300 cd blink as their mobility! Yes, there are some carries which (with enough skill) can get Pentakills (Rampages). Of course, some characters are wildly surperior to others. But I reaaaaally don't care.
AND NOW: THE MOST IMPORTANT POINT! "Pay to w-"
No! Shut up! It isn't! Buying champions and runes. The biggest 'controversy' about League. Apart from the obvious point of the free rotation, 3 different champs go on sale every 3 or so days, and you can still earn ingame money to buy them. Someone once said it felt so satisfying to earn that 6300 ip and get your shiny new champ. They were right. It's awesome. And now I can't stop playing Kha'Zix (Look at my signature :P!)
Day 3: Oddworld - Abe's Odyssey/Exodus
Oh boy! My favourite platformer/puzzle game! I can't speak much on this game except that...You kinda need to play to understand. it's cheap on steam.
Day 4: FEZ
A kinda.... 'Cutesy' 2d puzzle/platformer, using the mechanic of...Well. This describes it better. Review by IGN
p.s Just started playing Bioshock yesterday and the splicers... oh the horror. Too much going on and too fast. I always panicked and cant keep my cool.
"What, free invisibility?"
"wait,free tp's?"
"Are there any active items in this game or what?"
"HEHEHE BLINK AT LEVEL 1 SUCK IT!"
I will answer all of those 4 in order.
What free invis? I see no free invis. Also, Riki, Bounty Hunter Slark. And stealth in league lasts for about 3-4 seconds MAX. Think on that.
Free tp with a 300 second cd, as opposed to 100 gold tp with 60 second cooldown. Not to mention you have to swap out one of your precious summoner spells for it. I mean, usually only top laners get that spell.
Again. 300 second cooldown, with quite a short range, in a game with much shorter range dashes and gap closers, or just spells in general. It's great at making plays, dodging skillshots and, yes, escaping. But seriously. Blink Dagger. Oh what's that? Free blink every 12 seconds? With a much longer range?
