Risen 3 - Not good as Gothic 3, has dumb ballet combat animations, but is IMO an average game
Yes, finished today. Is nothing compared to Gothic 3, has dumb console like/mmoish like mechanics like cooldowns and crossbows/pistols effective at melee range but if compared to other action games, is not a bad game.

Some story about Katia's achievement, and a bit of background to those who are unfamiliar with EVE. She travelled on her own through all the known space, and a very large chunk of wormhole space. Known space is easy to navigate - all the systems are connected, with at least one gate and you have a map. I think that an stubborn enough person in an certain class of ship could navigate all of it within a week.
Wormhole space is a different beast. There's no map, no gates (permanent connections), no usual intel channels. You get to that space from the known space via wormholes, which you need to find using the probe scanning mechanic. Not hard, but takes time. Each wormhole you find leads to a "random" system. It's not just chosen from all possible systems, where you end up depends a lot on which part of known space you are. Some WHs only connect to other WHs and don't have a k-space connection.
What this means is that it is easy to stumble into j-space (the wormhole systems) but it's hard to find a specific system (each with a unique signature starting with J, hence j-space).
So to make life of Katia easier, Signal Cartel awesome SSAC group came up with an in-character story and plot to drive members to scan for the systems. The event had nice backstory related to the vanished races of EVE (all humans, just bit different in certain ways), and had plenty of text to read, quite high quality. The whole time players were lead to believe we're hunting for a bad infomorph. The plot also ties to the ongoing Signal Cartel metaplot, that moves just a little bit faster than EVEs (so not glacial pace, more like melting glacier). Storyfags would like IMO.
SC is primarly explorers anyway, but the event really bolstered participation. To take part, you had to run SC's co-pilot program (a very cool bot) that recorded your trip and let Katia know what "chain" to take to get to the systems she hasn't been in yet (I guess tons of alts getting to the target WHs and parking there for a bit till Katia could reach it were also involved).
If you discovered 10 or more of the hard to get to systems you got a real-life challenge coin you can see below, and a very nice thank you card from Katia Sae:
.I also realised that coming Monday (9th Sep) it will be 13 years since I've been playing EVE, my main's birthday. >240m skillpoints, not that it matters in the age of fucking injectors.
Anyways, love to Signal Cartel

I needed to restore my sanity a bit after the last dagerfall dungeon crawling experience, so i decided to try Metal Fatigue.
A pretty cool rts where you build giant robots from parts.
You also have additional map layers, you can dig underground in search of resource spots.
^Tanks proved to be a deadweight here. My two katana combots wrecked the whole enemy army pretty much by themselves.

Jinn Here are the screens I promised from The Way of Nether.
Fuck, fuckiitty fucking fuck. There's a lot of swearing in this. Combat is the same as the main game. Numbers on the top left are Reputation and amount of money. The more reputation you get, the more minions you can have.
Hero option is where you level up and equip heroes.
Troop option is where you can upgrade or sell your minions.
Warehouse is your inventory.
Trade is the good old shop, which changes its goods every five missions, I think.
Spy lets you pay a fee and you'll likely find new missions. So far, I have only found free missions.
I don't know how extensive it is, but from what I have played, it's worth your time. If this actually a long campaign, it should maybe even have been its own game.

Nearly finished this run of Dark Souls III
Completed the Diablo 2 expansion for the first time, I think. I remember killing Diablo lots of times, but I can't recall killing Baal, but I do remember the fight on the mountain summit. So obviously I must have played D2 a lot back in 2000 before the expansion was released.
I reverted to patch 1.09, since there seems to be a concensus that it's the best version for SP. But Set and Unique items didn't drop as frequently as a I remember from Classic D2, only 3 and 1 of each, which is about what I got with the 1.14 patch, only I got much more Rares with the 1.14, and the best basic items took longer to drop.
The droppings from Diablo and Baal were disappointing:

This talk of no sets/uniques makes me remember that one time where i was playing SP with my frenzy barb. I had zero magic find and was struggling in act 5 hell, when all of a sudden the green Griswold shield drops out of nowhere from a random skeleton.

Daggerfall unity
Warning, lots of babes!
The temple of Kynareth sure does look intriguing, it even inlcudes some outright naked babes in it's daedra summoning chamber for some reason. I already joined the Akatosh chantry though.
Let's check the Dibella one.
Okay, i regret joining the Akatosh a bit. I would have fitted here better.
Btw, my red loincloth is capable of shooting the wildfire spell. Very useful.

Glad I came back to this. Turn-based stealth tactics game with high intensity gameplay. Get spotted and you have one move to break line of sight or you're dead. Lots of fun tools & traps to manipulate AI. I had a great time with it.
Overload
Immensely enjoyable movement (6Dof, my first actually) and solid shooting, kinda feels like a shmup. Also, unexpectedly awesome soundtrack. Very fun level design to explore. Not a fan of how a lot of end level encounters come down to finding the invincibility powerup or get rekkt.

Just got Dep Sky Derelicts in a bundle and threw it into the backlog abyss. Is it any good?

Do you have a link for Corruption? Can't find it anywhere. Bonus points if it comes with a Readme.

It's included in Heroes of Might and Magic III - 3223 Maps v1.1.exe.
You will probably have to torrent it.

Another bunch from Xkcon's ultimate rip off mod for Fallout Tactics
This is ridiculous
If you played FT then you know problems with transparency (ie. walls and ceilings autovanis that let you see your character) in the game, and now they build this. I like dungeon crawling but this is just "fuck that shit I'm outta here" situations.
But hey, at least they gave you pebble to mark your track
still - good riddance
Found 6th Tomb, at least five more to go ohfuckmesideways
All that mess happened because I sold three copies of Necrodomigon to some librarian named Boris, $100k + $75k bonus upon completion (all 3 books in his possesion).
Wish that there were more rockets to buy, but they replenish too late to be useful.
Found Ace from Wasteland, good thing I found that pimped armor so fight went better this time. Pancor Jackhammer + slugs do the job.
Looks like these new quests and location are just another excuse for slaughterfest, what a twist.
three zombie infested locations, one with Zombieland characters underground.
clearing out the chem labs from rivaling gangs be like
That's how Wasteland Mafia works.
Overall - more activities, more quests, more locations to wander around and just like Fallout 2 - too many references and easter eggs.
