Now Playing?

I focus primarily on military titles. Being retired military, it all seems familiar and oddly comforting to me, LOL!

But I have been eyeing Starfield. I have played Skyrim and Fallout 4 at the insistence of my daughters, and they are good games. And Ilike space games sometimes.

But I'll probably let them iron out the initial wrinkles, and read user reviews, before plunking down my money.

I'm waiting for a number of titles, including Battleship Command, Broken Arrow, Sea Power, and Modern Naval Warfare.

As for currently available fare, I'm tempted by Total Conflict, and I have my fingers crossed that Battlefront will finally stop resting on their laurels and update the ancient, decrepit engine for the Combat Mission series.

But I'm an optimist, in spite of the more hair-raising aspects of my military career. The likelihood that Battlefront will update the Combat Mission engine is about as likely as peace and harmony suddenly breaking out worldwide. It's a shame, because the Combat Mission series is excellent, but the game engine went on life support a long time ago.

I play a little Farming Simulator 17 on my older laptop.

Otherwise I have stopped playing my other games like ETS2 ATS

Reason since some month back I started to have shaking arms and hands.
(Tremor or something else)

I tried to play ETS2 well I drove like I had enough to drink.

A month has gone, and in that time I've played just three games

Fallout 76 -- I'm done with the solo/quest content and have entered the 'end game'. Not nearly so compelling, but there's a hook in there somewhere. I still find it fun and usually play a bit every day. Not full burn like when I had all the content ahead of me. But I like to pop in and stir stuff up

PGA Tour 2K23 -- I have a society (which is public and free to join by the way) and we stage a four-round tournament every week.

Baldur's Gate 3 -- I'm a big fan of the Original Sin twins, which I consider the best examples in the iso RPG genre. I'm having a great time with BG3. Got 70 hours out of Act 1 and now in Act 2. This game will always be compared to DOS, and honestly I'm not sure I think it is better, but it's really good.
