I seem to have got over my 'cannot finish a game' problem. After having completed Mass Effect 3 and Dragon Age: Origins earlier, I just completed XCOM: Enemy Unknown. The last fight was extremely tough, but I finally managed to win. My opinion of the game hasn't changed - it is a great game. The tactical battles just suck your time and before you know hours have passed.

Trying to finish Dragon Age : Awakening currently, but frankly, the story no longer interests me. I probably need some time before I can go back to Dragon Age. There is still Torchlight II to finish. Or I can restart Civ V - there are a lot of civilizations that I never played. or Shogun 2. Oops...confused!

Playing DS for the 1st time. A kickass game with a beautiful game mechanism blend of POP+DMC.

well you can always go for mods.

you can delete minimap + enemy blips, try realistic weapon ballastics, improved scopes, weapon attachment mods etc etc..

a plethora of mods here: Mods for Far Cry 3 | Forums

Thanks. Probably will go with a Torchlight II plus Civ V combo for now. I played nearly 80 hours of Dragon Age in just 15 days! Also, the Blood Magic + Keeper is decimating most mobs - the huge AoE damage which doesn't do friendly fire damage is just overpowered. And I have 2 mages of that type in the party. The enemies cannot even move in most fights :D

Far Cry 3- Finding the artistic knife. Why is this game so damn easy? :evil:

Turn up the difficulty level. Simple.

BTW Lost Witcher 1 saves and started the game again from start. :|

Never became Blood Mage. Moral issues of the game. Though I have played in DA universe more than 400 hours. :)

^^ Did you really think that I'm complaining of the game being easy playing at the easiest settings. :| I'm Playing at 'Warrior' difficulty.

No actually I though about the normal difficulty. Anyway try mods then to pump up the difficulty. As for me game was challenging because I always do stealth.

Yeah I am also doing stealth. Liberating all the outposts without being detected but everything seems so easy. Wii use mods to remove minimap and enemy pointers.

Started a new Civ V game as Egypt with the plan to build lots of wonders and go for a Cultural Victory. My neighbours are Gengis Khan, Japan and another warmongerer!

When I first played the game, I didn't take up Blood Magic just for this reason, but when I encountered powerful Blood Mages and saw how strong they were, I took it up. But I think that there should be some restrictions - if you take up Blood Magic, you shouldn't be able to take up Keeper, for 'moral' reasons. It is the height of hypocricy when I hunt down apostates :p
