The updated graphics don't bother me that much, but they are weird to see. I like to quality of life stuff, (shift queuing builds/tasks and other stuff) it's nice.

Back to some regular Counter Strike GO (CSGO) and advancing through the Story Mode in GTA V.
So apparently my Top 3 played games past 2 weeks on Steam are: Rome: Total War, Total War: Rome 2 and now Total War: Rome Remastered :laugh4:
Installed Witcher 2 Collectors Edition... time to have some old fashioned fun. :yes:
Anyone else playing Mass Effect: Legendary Edition? Really enjoying the improvements to the first game and its now much more playable. Even if the inventory system is still horrid.
There's Civilization VI Platinum Edition out for Humble Bundle Choice this month, might be worth a shot looking at. :yes:
So, this is quite popular - recently released out of Early Access, it's now fully available to enjoy. I plan on buying it for the Steam Winter Sale.

This ver is too error. :(
I've been playing a significant amount of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 (2022) lately, for a good number of hours, and I want to rant a bit.
I intensely dislike SBMM. Skill Based Matchmaking, SBMM, esentially brings you together playing with players who are esentially the same skill level as you. In practice it sounds great, in reality, it breaks up games very often and every single time the lobby is switched, based on your internal rating (Elo rating). Very frustrating overall because it no longer feels like a game, it feels like an eSports competition. Which is a shame, because COD has advanced a lot in the weaponry category, allowing you to customise your weapons quite a lot now. Plus sounds and weapon feel is way more realistic. But man, that SBMM, super ultra annoying and frustrating to play.
And of course microtransactions everywhere.
Thanks for sharing
I also encountered the same situation.
Going a bit wild (and sideways) with Dirt Rally 2 right now, about 5 years since it was released, and it's very enjoyable. The Group B Turbo cars are impossible (how did they do it real life??!!) but on the lower power cars it's a great game. Realistic too.
Adding Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 on my list, waiting for my Collector's Edition. :yes:
Aaaand Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 has been received, and played, spectacular game, probably Game of the Year in 2025!
Added a bit of Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, I barely played it when it was released, but such a great game. Reading books in a game is something I've never seen before. Reading actual books with 50+ pages.
