Best PC games?

WoW used to be the best MMORPG out there I'll give it that. I enjoyed all the expansions up to cataclysm, but of course I got quite bored with it after a while. The quests are so repetitive, dungeons, battlegrounds, all of that just ends up getting old when the gameplay doesn't improve along with. Then the Pandaria expansion came out, WoW sort of made a fool out of itself, hoards of people got bored with it and now they're population is bleeding. It's not just them either, lots of MMORPG's are slowing down.

I left after they re-did the talent tree, and made dungeons "too easy".. Miss the 40man lvl60 raids..

That is debabable. I think Riot keeps it pretty fresh.

They just released an ARAM map, they release new champs every few weeks, and it is competitive, so it never feels repetitive. IMO
Shit, I am in over 10,000 hrs. I mean with 112 champs, and LARGE player base (different team dynamics), and consistently changing maps, characters, and graphics...I don't get bored too often.

I have played it since beta, "The game was in a closed beta from April 10, 2009"

It may be a LITTTTTTTLE bit repetitive, but I think League of Legends has the biggest current player base because of how fresh it's game makers keep it.

I don't get bored often.

Do you play?

aiight obviously youre too in love with the game to get my point. lol

Edit, Dota 2 has the biggest right now. Still super fun.


I guess my point is this: Repetitive or not, if a game dev. knows what it is doing, it will always be fun because they will know when and how to update/patch it.

I do play, but what I mean is doesn't matter what game theyre all fucking repetitive if you play them enough , doesn't matter what game, you may come back to it, but its always going to get repetitive at one point or another, than they come out with new content you play that till your eyes bleed and than you say "well this is the same shit as last time" happens in any game, whether it be mmo, or campaign or an fps

True.

I try to rotate between fps, rpg, action, and side-scrollers.

Steam is a godsend. LOL, such cheap games...

LOL, that is awesome! For me it's always the "daily" sales...every time I see anything over 30% off I go crazy. XD

Guild Wars 2, almost started feeling like most RPGMMO. but the dynamic events are making it alot more enjoyable, they are releasing new content to what they call the "Living Story" a progressive storyline that will take u upto the new expansion while giving insight to the past. tho it lost alot of its fan base at the begining do to the fact it is so open of a gaem u can get lost fast.

Unreal tournament GOTY with all the mods

ahh takes me back

Good call...

Another gem, Q3Arena. Remember how fast paced that game was?...I loved the crap out of that game!

Gibs all day.

machinarium. best indie PC game im my opinion.

Ive been playing wow since vanilla and still play because i love the end game and how its still hard. Plus my guild rules and we help each other out. I got a bug up my but to go finish shadowmourne and a bunch of people come do old content with me to. I understand the Lulz in games though that's when we step away but now theirs a new expansion coming out on Sept 10 and i cant wait for the new raid.

Starcraft 2!!!!!!

Quakelive still creates situations I've never experienced before, even if they're only slightly different. I think WoW PvP had that potential to be a bit more dynamic, but it's still going to be less so just by inherent game design choices. I always felt WoW was compromised by having to constantly balanced between pvp and pve. Just constant changing and relearning of mundane things. A game like Quake allows you to continually improve upon your skills and metagame. A game like WoW really doesn't require you to get past point X for PvE content and PvP is heavily compromised by massive problems with balance.

I liked WoW pvp in a lot of ways, hated it too because of the issues above. And ultimately because of how the game is, it's probably near impossible to provide a well balanced PvP experience just by virtue of the number of classes and specs.

Quakelive is a Q3 remake with some basic rule changes. Namely rail only does 80 damage instead of 100 and a few other minor tweaks, the rail thing changes it a lot though.

Sounds super fun...and yeah, that is a huge change.
The rail-gun insta-kill was a Hallmark of Quake. Lol.

Either way I am sold on that, I will seek it out and probably play the crap out of it, thanks man!

Day Z is fun, minecraft also, for classic pc gaming you could go with DotA (not number 2, 2 is shitty) or Age of Mythology.
