Scratch RDR2, I get get the d@mn game to launch.

No problem! If you ever do try it out I would be curious to read your thoughts on the game.

I'm being turned off by the in-game depiction of the "Pathfinder - Kingmaker" game world. Its many unexpectedly-tiny areas connected by what is effectively "teleportation". I prefer "open world" -- or, at least substantial areas to explore.

I may give it a bit more time to see if the story works for me.

I wanna do this Canada invention. I don't live near any of their locations.

Anyone done Escape rooms?

Looks like John Travolta's dance floor from Saturday Night Fever.

I got RDR2 running.

7D2D

Game just rocks.

About 2000 hours with this ...

A place called Navegzane after an apocylips.

Zombies will come after your butt from everywhere.

I like it and when you get strong enuff you can hold your ground.

It starts with the player in his boxer shorts and dam all else.

X4 continues to amaze me. Imagine standing on the bridge of those ships while issuing orders to the crew:



Guess what? You can. If this were in VR, I cannot imagine how intense the experience would be. Every ship costs hard earned money from a corporation I had to create, water, seed and grow from scratch. Losses are meaningful and painful.

Another month has sailed past, where does it go?

In that time I've been playing

Fallout 4 -- Picked up my save having already completed the main campaign, and now I'm dabbling in the DLC and just patrolling, stirring it up. Playing on Survival mode which transformed my experience. One neat thing is there's no level cap for the first time in the series and so I just keep on going.

Rome 2 -- Finished off an Iceni run in the Imperator Augustus companion campaign.

Three Kingdoms -- Finished several campaigns. Waiting for the Thanksgiving sale in case Warhammer 3 might be in it.

I just recently ended my epic run through with Elden Ring. I played it regularly from April until I finally uninstalled it this past Saturday. I managed to get up to level 238.


I'm now fully immersed into "Deathloop". I won't give any spoilers but if you are a fan of the films "Inception" and "Tenet" and you are a fan of the Dishonored games then I highly recommend this.

Warhammer Darktide, it's the 40K version of Vermintide. More of the same, but in a different setting with many more guns. Enemies are a bit different as there's no ratmen or beastmen but, there's still chaos cultists and warp abominations aplenty.

Hell Let Loose, solid WW2 shooter provided you have at least a couple people to form a squad with.

The Ascent - Third person, well more of a top down shooter in a future dystopian world. So far it seems fun, not quite sure about the plot yet, and it looks fantastic.

Ghost Recon Wildlands.
I've put flight sims on the back burner until my VKV throttle and pedals arrive.

I don't even know what the majority of the things listed are.

I continue to play X4. This has got to be the closest one can get to being in "Space Battleship Yamato/Star Blazers" in any game, ever. Capital ships, fighters, space stations, full economy, business empires, giant battles, and you can participate in first person or command from the bridge or even be across the galaxy issuing orders through the strategic map.

Interesting thought: "Space Battleship Yamato" predated "Star Wars" by nearly three years. Huge space battles before they became a household experience courtesy of Lucas.

I'm not surprised. I believe you are exclusively a flight simmer?

It wouldn't surprise me if Lucas took some inspiration from that anime series.

Mostly. Some KSP occasionally, I like a good Naval sim. Used to play a good bit of ArmA, but not recently.

Last one I played a lot was Silent Hunter 4 (Pacific). I skipped on 5 because of all the technical problems and poor reviews it had on release.

Depending on your historical interests Cold Waters may be worth a look. And a game called War On The seas looks like it may be good.
