This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Looking forward to the full release of Windward, the pirate, Age of sail game I was chatting about in another thread. It's due for full release mid May.
There's been loads of stuff added in the last week or so, which is really nice.
As I run a few servers for the game, I'm especially looking forward to release, as the dev has promised some Server managing tools for the game, which will be great.
As it stands, the server program for the game has pretty much nothing at all to actually manage the server, such as moderator tools and so on.

Still, the servers are getting busier now. I run servers using a Raspberry Pi Version 2 and I get about 6+ people on a server these days, which is pretty good for that game.
The most I've ever seen on any server is about 14 people.

It's not really a MMORPG, more a multiplayer game for less players than the 100s you expect from a MMORPG.
Still I'd love to see 20+ people on the server playing and battling.

Looking forward to the new Batman game and Battlefront.

Mostly I'm just looking forward to getting enough free time to play games I've already got.  I picked up some stuff during the Steam summer sale that I still haven't let myself sit down and really throw myself into.  Elite: Dangerous was the last game I started playing (and I haven't played as much of it as I'd like), but I've got a backlog of stuff that's installed, ready to go, and I just haven't rolled up my sleeves and torn into yet.

Not least of which, Borderlands 2: The Pre Sequel, which Mrs. Crit and I are playing (and adoring) when we've got time.
Ugh. Gross. I resent and am embarrassed by the time I spent thinking this site was okay.

Aren't we all. :)

2 or Pre-Sequel?

Playing (and also loving) both (also with my wife). BL:tPS is fun because of lasers and butt-slams and motherfucking Cyber Commando Wilhelm, but BL2 is downright one of the best written videogames I've ever played.

Critias

Pre-Sequel.  We've played through BL2 three (or four?) times now, and yeah, it's just amazing, start to finish, great writing, voice acting, story, solid gameplay, you name it.  

(I thought the Pre-Sequel was numbered 2 also, my bad there)

Looking forward to TES: VI if and  whenever it finally comes out.

That's pretty much it out of what I know is coming out relatively soon.

I've been hearing some good stuff about The Witcher III. Not sure how it'll go down but I'm looking forward to giving it a whirl.

I played maybe an hour of the first Witcher game. I was really, really lukewarm on the whole dual-wielding white-haired prettyboy Bioware-railroaded through not-WFRPland premise, but combat seemed fun. I might give it another try some day.
