Been a while since I posted here.

Been playing FF Tactics Ivalice Chronicles on Steam and its been a blast so far. Way better than the PS1 original , cant see myself going back to the original.

I'm happy you're enjoying the Remake of FF Tactics, tho I've seen some peole saying that the remake is easier than the original. Not sure if It's true or not.

I've been keeping myself busy since we last talked about the games we were playing.

After asking here I gave Dragon Age Origins a go and... it didn't go too well. For starters, the game crashes a lot. There are supposed to be several fixes you can try to do but none of the ones I tried worked. I know the GOG version of the game is updated and should work fine, but then comes my other problem with the game, the difficulty.
You see, I played my character's origin story, became a Grey Warden, did my part in the battle and reached a town after it with little problems besides the crashes. But after that the difficulty spikes a lot and randomly. I tried to do two different missions (the tower of mages and searching for the Arl) and while both started of well, at one point I would find myself facing one group of enemies with no big problems only to be obliterated by the next group. It was frustrating and coupled with the crashes, I decided to try something else.

And so after that I played, and beated, The Outer Worlds, The Ghostbusters Remastered (dated, but I actually enjoyed it) and Hob. Now I'm playing a citybuiler, Aven Colony. I've also played a bit of Euro Truck Simulator 2 between them while I was trying to decide what to play next.

How are you playing Origins? Are using the tactical mode? The later Dragon Age games shifted to more action based combat but Origins was played better in tactical mode.
