Or I could just play some sweet Master of Magic (DOS version)... a game so beloved it's still getting actively modded some 30 years later!

I have such a ridiculous backlog to play. Such guilt.

Same boat here my friend.

1000+ hours, lots of intricate builds. Post Ashlands has been miserable.

With all that, still the best $20 I've ever spent in 43 years of gaming.

They've gotten progressively more poorly thought out though.

Mistlands is glorious, but so fogged in as to be essentially invisible. I resorted to a mod to increase the value of the wisp.

Ashlands is just a brutal, unfun grind. Not hard, just relentless especially with endless pop-in of enemies. Not to mention even more horrendous performance... 20fps on a very high end system is abysmal (rtx 4090, nvme drive, etc).

Valheim was amazing. But it's faltered so badly in the past 2 years that I'm just sad. Very sad.

Damn, I didn't even notice the logo.

The only content I miss from the Bad Place.

So many amazing ideas in Arcanum. Time to finally check out the various modernization patches and mods and give it a spin.

My first CRPG was also from a pawnshop! Though it was the original Wizardry in 1982 ;)

Are you me?!?!

I've been evangelizing about that game to any gamer I meet, especially old sk00l Fallout fans since... I bought it in 2001 ;)

Could we please focus on Rampart, I mean, Gaza...

You won't get through to the Putin shills. No matter how much the ruble tanks, they're in it for the long haul

It's such a painful choice. I can't take in more pets, but I can't stand to see one suffering.

The last true stray I adopted ended up giving me a litter of kittens before I could get her fixed, then ran away. Ever since all my pets (cats) have been from shelters.

To be fair I still feed opossums regardless.
