Do you replay any games?

I would still play Dark Age of Camelot if EA hadn't bought it and threw the IP into a dustbin.

When bordedom rears its ugly head I whip out:

BG 1&2, IWD 1&2, KotOR 1&2, Alpha Protocol, Fallout 1 2 Tactics & New Vegas, NWN 2, Master of Orion 1&2, Alpha Centauri, Sword of the Stars, Diablo 2, Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, Orcs Must Die! 1&2, Sol Survivor, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series, Arcanum, Planescape: Torment, Divine Divinity, Deus Ex, The Witcher 1&2, Sanctum, Drakensang series, Plants v. Zombies.

One of them will cure my affliction.

Not nearly as much as I used to. I used to be able to put thousands of hours into Morrowind just re-making characters obsessively. Now days I don't have the attention span or the raw free time to do that, so I have to be more focused when I play games and complete goals.


That said I "replay" some visual novels often, but sometimes going a different route in a VN is like reading a completely different VN, so it barely counts.

I like to pick up Summon Night: Swordcraft Story a lot too. I think I've played through three or four times now, which is exceedingly odd for me. It never seems to get old or lose it's charm or fun. Now that I'm talking about it maybe I should pop it in the ol' GBA again...

Do 50000 Baal runs count as replaying?

These days I rarely even finish games though.

Always, I never can justify only playing a game through once.

Roleplaying games? For sure, since their are many different routes to go, different classes, different factions, different playstyles.

Linear Games? Rarely, usually only if I haven't played that game in a long time or I really, really, really liked it. I've replayed Assassins Creed 2 and Brotherhood.

The more sandbox and less scripted a game, the more likely I am to replay it.

Exactly. Why would i buy a game to only play it once?

Half-Life 2---I've played this game mutiple times and it's still fun.

Yes. I'm playing it right now, actually. After Black Mesa i played trough the original Half-Life, Opposing Force and Blue Shift, and then moved on to HL2 :hehe: Those classics i have to replay from time to time to keep in mind what games used to be :hehe: I also regularly play classic Doom, from 1993.

I'm pretty sure that's supposed to be a good thing.

General opinion on that depends on if you are in the Fallout section or the TES section :lmao:

ratchet and clank: up your arsenal. I played that game over and over. I beat it about 12 times in a week. That is the only game that I have replayed. I normally do not replay games, but there were so many unlocks and other things that I did not get, and really wanted.
