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.

It looks good! I was hoping to get some pictures of it, but we had thick clouds the entire time.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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! https://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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

The idea of Eve was always very interesting to me, but I’ve never tried it. The whole aspect of the massive battles wasn’t what I was looking for, I was just interested in the mining and building end of it. I could never tell if I would be able to do that without getting blown up all the time, and never wanted to invest the time in trying it without knowing. I ended up doing something similar in RuneScape. I spent most of the few years I played crafting and selling products and sometimes going on quests.

That is my primary playstyle in a nutshell! 😂 I really like the painter and writer professions, but I sometimes don’t even go that far! I’ve had sims that have never had a job and have made every simoleon by picking up rocks, playing guitar, and selling random things they found in the dumpsters around town. That’s the great thing about it, you get more freedom to do what you want.
