moonshineshadow: Yeah I am also trying to decide what to play next. Some days I think it would be easier if I owned fewer games. Most of the days it is more like "damn why does nothing seem so interesting that I want to play it at once" :D

CarrionCrow: -laughs- That sounds very familiar. That compelling factor just isn't there, for whatever reason.
Yep. And if that goes on too long I normally end up replaying one of my favourite games :D
Which is silly since there are so many unplayed games left.

CarrionCrow: Good morning. =)

No worries, doing all right here. How's your day going so far?
Alright, good to hear :)

I'm preparing for a trip to Helsinki. Just a quick trip - my wife's computer needs one more visit to the maintenance shop :)
They replaced the old win 8.1 with windows 10 while they fixed the actual problem, the last time the laptop was there - but forgot to activate that said system ;) ... Hopefully it will be just 3 hours and I'll be back home to play Xcom and maybe something else.
Maybe I'll check out what they are selling there computerwise... I'd really like to own a decent pair of headphones.

That's where approaches differ. I rarely go back to games repeatedly, usually ending up trying to wipe out some smaller games instead.

Which is not a bad approach. I also do that sometimes but replaying games is like rereading books. It is great because I know I'll enjoy it and have a good time.

That's usually the time I start to install like ~10 games from my library that sound like I might like them right now. Then I try them out until I get hooked by one. If there isn't one, I just install more :-)

Thank gods, HDD space isn't an issue that much any more.

As long as you're having a good time, that's what matters.

The poor chocolate what did it do to end up in coffee ;-)
*big return hug*

That approach sounds interesting, I'll try that :D

Windows 10? Ewwwwwwwwww!

They installed the OS, but didn't activate it? -facepalm- That's bright of them.

Hopefully you find something cool to add some additional value to the 3 hours you have to spend.

Upgrading the OS without even asking?? What kind of shop is this?
a fine Saturday morning to you gog.com. hope all is well. hope whatever's in your mug, tea (hooray!), coffee, jack, that it came out just perfect this morning.
Interesting way to know I'm not a teenager anymore - I'm watching a stream of Street Fighter 5, and one of the female characters is wearing a shirt that looks like she just tied it around her large chest.
Every time I see someone play her, my first thought is, "That is totally unrealistic. She would have a 'wardrobe malfunction' the first time she tried to move quickly or jump around."

This is always my thought, along with "Really, devs? Was that necessary?" and I'm 18.
What does that say about me, eh?
Edit: Wait a second...what is there about the entire FRANCHISE of Street Fighter that IS realistic?!

It's fan service. I think it's all incredibly silly, but it does its job.
Good morning everyone *big hugs and waves*

I'm back from CPH - hope you're all doing fine :)

Not saying that I'm this type of person, but the way I look at it, if I really wanted to ogle women dressed in skimpy clothing that badly, I could do that for free just by having an internet connection.
