Crusader Kings 2, been seducing the Byzantine Empress as a mere count in Napoli. Eventually managed to gain independence, and I married the queen of Lombardy, died instantly of stress. Now I'm playing as my son, managed to break free again after snatching a couple of duchy titles and formed my own kingdom, the Kingdom of Salermo, which  I am going to rename to Maximos, in honor of my father.

I don't think anywhere in Other Games it's explicitly stated things have to be about digital games.

I've been burning away hours on Age of Wonders 3, picked it up in the pre-Christmas sale and got the expansion pack recently in the Christmas sale. I remember it got a bad rap around here at launch but maybe I've got a higher tolerance of the game's misgivigins or the developers patched things up since then. Either way I've put good 30+ hours on it and there's still fun and excitement to be had. It's true that the mix of races and classes you have don't quite reach the same breath of things Shadow Magic had, but it's still pretty good. Fairly typical fantasy races mixed with somewhat less typical nation classes make for some interesting combos.

Give me my musket and my goblin hordes and point me at the Elves!

However I recently got Far Cry 3 so who knows what I'll play this weekend.

Isn't broken what you sort of expect from Early Access?

i mostly bought it because of the reviews so i guess it's my fault.
but honestly you can't really tell anymore with all games being labeled early access.
Starbound for example is horribly lacking in content unless you intend to build and color mega projects

I know there's worthy exceptions, like presumably Kerbal Space Program and Prison Architect, but I simply refuse to buy Early Access games. Every now and then I see a post like yours which only affirms my spending habits. Why spend money on something which may or may not be good, and which may or may not get finished some day?

[edit]Exceptions apply of course. I throw money at toady every now and then and DF is essentially free early access with a donation button. Maybe that makes the difference for me. I don't have to pay to experience DF, so I gladly pay.[/edit]

In a way it's really sucky. Occasionally people gush and praise games that have "come out", only for them to mention as an afterthought that "oh btw, the game isn't done yet". But I guess that's still better than what triple-A devs/publishers try to pull with their 1.0 beta releases :P
