The day before drama, valve failing at cs again and again and posting coal in dota, e3 officially gone, there's something about skull and bones, vitality winning blast and 40 streamers managed to clear classic world of warcraft content without dying (the hardest feat in gaming) sooooo ...

As I've just seen a clip from a S-tier qualifier game where someone lost the final match because they didn't know a 25 year old mechanic (pro RTS players btw ) I'll declare Age of Empires 2 the game of the week!
This week's entry will be Age of Empires 2
Take control of a powerful civilization. Lead them through 1000 years of the Middle Ages to riches and greatness. Will you Intimidate the world into following you by using military force? Rule the world with honor and nobility by using commerce and diplomacy? Or Underhandedly seize power through conspiracy, deception and regicide? There are many paths to power, there can only be one ruler!

Doing my annual New Vegas Christmas playthrough. The tradition started in 2017, when I accidentally chose to replay New Vegas during the holidays and had such a good time, that I've decided to try and recreate it every year. At this point, New Vegas gameplay for me is forever associated with Christmas tunes playing softly in an adjacent room, roasted chestnuts and the smell of a Christmas tree. Going on the sixth year of my tradition, I finally chose to do all of the GRA star challenges, which I ignored during the previous runs. So far it is quite fun and adds a whole new layer of planning to the game. To fully realise my plans for the endgame I need a lot of caps so for the first time ever I am actually doing Dead Money for the gold reward at the end. Usually I just do it for the holorifle, which after being fully modded out is the best energy weapon in the game, but this year my eyes are on a bigger prize. Feels a bit sleazy, but it is also supposed to be the standard motivation for your character. I am currently going through the ghost people nest in the church as I finish writing this comment. Wish me luck!

It's weird how I'll have such memories tied to games and music.
Fallout3 will be laying on a fouton in an airbnb house i was renting in Iowa, working at a sausage factory.
Skyrim is a cold snap when i was laid off in my newly purchased house.
Rasmus is a trip down to Alabama

Since there was no door between the two living rooms my family had, I would often hear very well what my parents were watching on their tv while I myself played video games and it would often imprint on my experience. Seyda Neen from Morrowind and the Bison Steve hotel in New Vegas both trigger Columbo episodes in my head whenever I visit these locations in-game. Cheydinhal in Oblivion always triggers the somber “investigation” music from the original Twin Peaks. The Marrakesh level in 2016 Hitman has that new Fargo season with Martin Freeman playing in the back of my head.

ha I thought I was the only one. I have several games that bring back nostalgia. I tried playing a remake of Myst years ago. I remember when it came out and everyone thought the graphics were so so sooo good. lol My parents refused to buy me a computer, so I had to play at a friend's house.
