I don’t sink time into video games much anymore but when I do I make a point of completely dominating them. 
Only took me 26 years to beat Mario 64…

CK3 A game where I murder my closest family members, sell my daughter to a foreign king for a pretty penny, lie plot and steal to take over land, and through it all have absolutely no idea what I’m doing 
.
Great way to kill 6 hours though.

Oof, CK3 just melts time away. Nothing like fumbling around barely succeeding to manage an empire!

Anyone remember Rise Of The Triad (ROTT), man that was a fun FPS. Back in the early days, like wolfenstein and the first doom…

I went to a place in Toronto where you could play ROTT with a VR headset back in 1996. That was a fun experience except they kept the difficulty cranked.
Duke Nukem 3D was also a classic, loaded with steroids, strippers, and O.J. jokes.

I still get really into Doom and Doom II for about a month every year. I still suck ass at them, too. Doom was the first FPS game I ever played. We’d play co-op when I was a teeny little kid.
ROTT wasn’t ever my thing though. I got heavily into Half-Life and Team Fortress when they came out, too.

I dabbled a bit with StrangeMUD back in the day…back in 96-97, when over half of the computers on campus were just dumb terminals with either green/black or amber/black displays.

These games have considerably much more entertainment value using modern ports like zdoom or skulltag as the controls and graphics are much more smooth. Also if you remap the fire button to something less noisy than the mouse nobody will notice that you play games at work all day.
I used to think I was pretty good at games until I found out my friend was a former quake champion of the world. Turns out I am not the gamer I thought I was.
Team Fortress and the sequel were great games.

Hell yea! I would always try some bigger muds like strange or slack whenever the server went down and I had to scratch the itch lol. Dragonheart started in 96’. They had a very unique and custom fight code that was rare for that time. Plus heavy the PvP mentality helped gameplay continue into the 2000’s

Btw that Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands game is a real hoot. It’s just a re-skinned borderlands but they’re playing a legally distinct Dungeons & Dragons game called bunkers & badasses. My brother has a ps5 and we’ve been split-screen playing, but it’ll be out on steam eventually.

Descent 3D was also a big favorite of mine back in the old days. My old 486 could just barely run it. 
I would love to play that one again. I tried a while back, on Steam, but it didn’t run correctly.

Looking for some people for CO-OP in Elden Ring. I do not PvP, but if you need someone to practice a new build on, figure out timing of a new weapon, or just need a player kill to reset your streak, I’m always willing to help out.
I’m not stuck on a particular boss or anything. Heck, I haven’t even progressed the story beyond getting Torrent and accessing the Roundtable Hold. Just bored and wanting to goof around and maybe get some runes or new items in the process. Voice chat is not necessary, unless whatever you have in mind requires strategy, then I’ll need you to literally talk me through whatever we’re gonna do.
For those that have no purchased this game, but maybe are considering it, do it. You will get beaten down, wrung out, shattered, and tormented, but OMG is it worth it. What a gorgeous game. The visuals alone make it worth the cost of the game, for me. I’m big into atmosphere while playing any game, and this one nails it. I’ve invested less than 1 hour total into Souls series games prior to Elden Ring, and to be frank I don’t even get the concept of those games. Elden Ring strikes me as different, and it’s just different enough for me to get comfortable playing it, and truly enjoy it, whether I’m winning the fight or watching my Tarnished get 1-shot killed by something I should have avoided. GoTY material, no doubt in my mind

@Banquo what are you running this on? Was looking at it but was concerned with specs.
I’d have to run on a 1060 6gb, i7-8550U, 16gb ram
