Not a gamer but I'm actually really looking forward to playing RDR2 as I had a blast with the first one when it came out.

Not that I'm particularly interested in Wild West-themed games but you can't go wrong with Rockstar Games. RDR2 looks stunning but I read it requires over 100GB of space.

I really love RPGs like skyrim on my gaming PC, I do feel that gaming is going to shit badly with crap console games /button bashing rubbish , I like to watch this Geordie youtube guy called Mack *Worth a Buy* who tests /recommends new games , very funny an not a paid shill .
I am playing Panzer Corps at the moment

Started Diablo III Ultimate Evil with my partner, that's fun, never played any of them before.

A rather addictive solitaire card game on Steam-- "Shadowhand'.

Looks simple at first, but its not. Addictive and very well done.

No, devs are pushing the corps to licensing.
You want Skyrim? Pay a yearly for the license.
Bethesda is totally going that way as Pete Hines
publicly denounced "replayability" at Gamecon, and E3.

It's not now and never had been about consoles VS. the PC gamers.

Those of us on PC have had full reign of control.
Rockstar, Bethesda, EA, all of them.

Not when they get their hands on licensing money, it's over for us.
Best advice: Stock up on your favorite format and favorite publisher now.

IE: I won't be participating in my gaming forum team endeavors for Fallout 76

Bethesda can F-off for starting their online "no replayability" licensing,
which is of course based on the success of the incredibly horrible GTA V Online (GTAO)
and worse, EA's CODO - - - F-ModernWarfare

I was an admin on a vB gaming forum for GTA.
I recently re-achieved another (12th) 100% in GTASA.
That's as good as it gets, going back and enjoying our old games.

As for Skyrim, loving the 23rd completed play through.
This time, Imperial Female, Archer.
Skyrim NEVER gets old.

I just bought a PC Version of Rockstar's MANHUNT for like 5$.
Looking forward to re-living those completions........

Just came back from a mates house and watched them playing Fallout 76, something that I had kinda high hopes for after lessons learned from ESO.

But no. I was looking forward to Fallout 76 but now there is no way I will buy it. I don't think I'd download a free version TBH.

c.o.

My thought exactly, or similar.

I watched a friend develop his character without muting the chat.
Weird hearing newbies and griefers chat about BS while my friend
is debating a melee or stealth sniper character to role play.
That's just in the beginning!

Later before he was even Level 10 being accosted by a small group trying to get him to join them.
(Note you can see them approaching as blips on a HUD)
That really is not Fallout, that is really some new online crap.

Bethesda really lost the whole premise of a stand alone wasteland experience,
it seems to cash in on the MMORPG experience of micro transactions.
That's why the map is 4x FO4, and why Pete Hines says you level up forever.
To keep you occupied 76 style, without having to ever move on.
Isn't that what Dan Howser said about GTAO? Plus there, the DLC's
are strictly GTAO DLC's, not GTAV downloadable content for the original story.
If people buy into a forever level up system in 76, when the engine is FO4,
they will see crashing as early as level 600. Graphics aren't everything.

The only reason I would buy it, as a Fallout Veteran and collector,
way down the road, is when it's dirt cheap,
and after many reports and updates have rolled out.
The reports so far are not enthusiastic for single players.......
Even then I would play the boring single player, dodging groups
trying to get me to join, at best helping the one off newbie get by.
I would buy basically to explore the map only.

The classic Flashback has been re-released for the PS4. You could play it on different platforms in the early 1990s but the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive version is the only one I know. It was only much later that I managed to beat this game, thanks to the saving benefits of an emulator.
