    How many old farts here stil play pc games?

    I put loads of hours into Witcher 1 and Witcher 2. Great storylines and characters. I've heard Witcher 3 is even better.

    How many old farts here stil play pc games?

    One of the nice things about being an "older" gamer is the ability to make decisions without remorse. Yes, I know I have bills to pay, and a mortgage, and a family .... but it was totally my choice to spend $60 on Fallout 4. Normally I don't do such things. Normally, I don't spend full cost...

    Mid-30's here. Closer to 40 than I care to admit. Still PC gaming like a nerd. Still loving it, too.

    Price. Not in a position to drop $60 for a game. Bought a new house, responsibilities and all that. Looking for something to sort of relax my brain after the stress of day-to-day. That being said ... its really, really, REALLY tempting to try to find a way to justify the cost.

    Yeah, I've logged tons of hours on Witcher 1 and 2. As well as Skyrim. Loved those games.

    Yeah, i put like 500 or more hours into Skyrim. Loved it. I never played the DLCs though ... maybe I'll reinstall and get the expansions. The Witcher is on my watch list. I keep hoping for a sub-$20 sale. Thanks for the suggestions. I'll look into those. Keep 'em coming if you have more.

    I need a new game. I'm thinking its about time for an immersive RPG. Something budget friendly (which probably rules out Witcher 3). Maybe something that allows for creativity?

    That game that everyone hates, but you love...

    Yeah, it came out among many other RPGs at the time, and it was accused of "cashing-in" on the genre's popularity. It was called a generic RPG with the Mario label slapped on. I almost didn't get it when I did because everyone was basically saying, just go get a "real" RPG instead.

    That game that everyone hates, but you love...

    I really, really, really wanted to like ESO. But, it just never had the magic that the previous Elder Scrolls games had. I can't put my finger on any one thing, but Skyrim, Oblivion, Morrowind ... I played those things for hours. Never got into ESO in that way. my spirit animal

    That game that everyone hates, but you love...

    I still love Diablo 3. Played since beta. Still love it. I know it gets a bad rep at times, but I like it. No One Lives Forever. The game's older, and got very little love, but was hilarious. Still have fond memories even though no-one's ever heard of it. Mario RPG. Again, an older title...
