It’s been a while! I was curious and just checked, September 2022 was the update 26 news post!
- Comment on Open source real time strategy game 0 A.D. releases Alpha 27 1 day ago:
I think it’s a good decision too. I understand why they were still using it, but I’m sure it would turn some people away.

I’m happy to see they won! It’s amazing how low Nintendo can go.

Euro Truck Simulator 2!
The Greece DLC released about a month ago, and I just picked it up in the last few days. Lots of fun so far, the map is starting to get pretty big. I’m planning to do another long haul across the whole map at some point.
- Comment on got one of the last ones for christmas 5 weeks ago:
Really? That’s disappointing. I have the original Enterprise and the Defiant in the size you have as well as the Spock figurine. They were really nice products overall.
- Comment on The Eurogamer 100 - 100 best games to play right now 4 months ago:
I can appreciate a website making a list like this rather than putting five games to a page to garner more clicks! I definitely have different tastes than the reviewers though, which is fine.
- Comment on The Eurogamer 100 - 100 best games to play right now 4 months ago:
Yeah, I would put V in there as well! I still don’t like VI nearly as much, even though I’ve played it quite a few times.
- Comment on In part because it reminds me of TOS:”The Cage”, I’m hooked on *The Prisoner* 4 months ago:
I’ve never heard of this show, but from what you’ve said and the quick research I’ve done it sounds like something I would be interested in. Thanks for the mention of it!
- Comment on GE-Proton 9-12 released with fixes for Star Citizen, Bully: Scholarship and more 4 months ago:
I haven’t played it since this release, but I would maybe ask in the Star Citizen LUG Matrix or Discord if you haven’t already. They’ve helped with some questions I’ve had.

True, that would be better. I was just going to watch them two nights in a row, but I might do that instead!
- Comment on August 30th 2024. America adopts the metric system. Never forget. 5 months ago:
Is anyone here planning to watch the episodes over the time they’re supposed to occur? I’m thinking of watching part 1 tomorrow due to it being the date on the calendar onscreen, and part 2 the next day.
- Comment on What's your favourite Star Trek theme? 5 months ago:
My favorite theme is definitely Deep Space Nine!
Favorite scene is a little harder though. I’ll probably have to go with the montage scene in the last DS9 episode, which had a slow instrumental medley of The Way You Look Tonight and the DS9 incidental music.
I also think the scene in DS9: The Siege of AR-558 where Bashir is playing the recording of I’ll Be Seeing You is really good too. It works even better on a rewatch after you see how important the song becomes to Nog.

I’ve been playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance again. It’s just a great world to just ride around and do things in for a few hours. They unfortunately had to delay the sequel until the beginning of next year, so I’ve got to wait a little longer before I can do the same in the new one!

Oh yes, I fully expect it. It sadly happens way too often.
- Comment on Pablo Sanchez Returns! ‘Backyard Sports’ Video Game Franchise Set to Relaunch and Expand Into Film, Television and More 5 months ago:
I had a lot of fun with the original Backyard Baseball when I was younger! I’m afraid I’ve aged out of the franchise now, but hopefully it interests a new generation! I just hope they don’t go the mobile/microtransactions route. Even though it’s apparently the most profitable model, it doesn’t usually make good games.

- Comment on Extended Clip | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds - Season 3 6 months ago:
This show seems to only get wilder with every season! I’m here for it though. Now we just need seasons every year, and preferably more episodes too.
- Comment on GameCube Now Available on RetroAchievements! 6 months ago:
I’ve had an account on RetroAchievements for a few years but never logged in on any of my emulators for some reason. I just started doing that, and it’s a lot of fun trying to get some of the achievements! It gives me a good excuse to replay some old favorites, and I’ve discovered some new things on games I’ve replayed many times.

It’s back up! retroachievements.org/game/14772
I was in the middle of playing Zelda when the servers went down yesterday. I’m guessing it was something about the GameCube achievement launch.

Sounds interesting!
- Comment on Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of July 14th 6 months ago:
Hmm, some of those little known games can be half decent sometimes! ;-) I do have Sonic 2, but I think I’m going to wait a bit. Even though I enjoy the games I’m not that good at them, so by the time I finished it I need a break!

I just finished Sonic the Hedgehog last evening and I’m trying to decide what I want to play next!

Just a heads up for anyone intrigued by the discussions, there’s a 5 game Deus Ex bundle on Steam that’s on sale for less than $10 right now!

The Elder Scrolls Online has been my go to for the weekend so far, it’s something I enjoy dropping in and out of sometimes.
- Comment on Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of June 16th 7 months ago:
After staring at my screen for 45 minutes trying to pick a game for the weekend, I decided to start up The Sims 3 again. Just like always, the addiction is back! It seems like at least once or twice a year I go really hard on it for about a week.
- Comment on Thoughts on Space Games, Part 3: Too Many Tiny Games! 7 months ago:
This is part 3 of their series, and this part is specifically centered around smaller games. Some of the games you mentioned were in parts 1 and 2.
- Comment on Thoughts on Space Games, Part 3: Too Many Tiny Games! 7 months ago:
Endless Sky has sucked up large chunks of time from me over the years! Definitely recommend it if anyone hasn’t tried it yet. I’ve worked on several mods for it over the years, and that’s lots of fun as well.
- Comment on Thoughts on Space Games, Part 1: Top-5 AAA Games 7 months ago:
I’m pretty sure I’ve bought Astrox Imperium, but I’ve never tried it. I’ve got so many other games I still enjoy playing that it’s often hard to start a new one!
