I mostly play WoW since vanilla and Overwatch. Funny thing is that since I quit drinking I actually got better and I have just as much fun! :grin::nerd_face:

I have over 150 board games and play at least a couple of times per week. I love the mental challenge.
I just played an RPG for the first time last month. Bucket list item!

If you haven’t already checked it out take a look here to find out about the best new games:

Six years ago it was a revelation to me that there were so many games.

Sometimes I lose the drive to game. Especially when i know what ahead… I’m all: eeehh, I’ll do that mission some other time. Some games just plateau.

I was getting bored this morning so I rounded the troops and went on a hike. Beoughts some dogs. Good music. Someti.es just getting out is better than staying where you’re at in your thoughts.

Feel better man. Stay strong, and game it up!

Strategy is crucial in gaming. I’m no good at chess, probably because I haven’t played in a long while. But yes! I have also learned strategy with addiction has also been crucial. For example, I’ve been trying to do something different or new each day. Yesterday I went on a hike, today I am gonna take my doggo on a walk and listen to a new album I haven’t listened to yet.

How long have you done Judo?

Dude, same. :weary::joy:

I’ll look into it!

I earned my black belt in tae kwon do when I was 12, but that was another lifetime ago lol. I wrestled all throughout middle and high school and loved it. If my university had a wrestling team I would have tried out for that

Alrighty follow gamers. Picking up FC5 again. Let’s see where this takes me… happy gaming and stay strong out there yall!

Put over 300 hours into Oblivion back in college. Got Skyrim on my PS3, so about 100 hours my save file started to bite the dust and I rushed through the main quest before it was unplayable. I played ESO a lot early on, including beta testing, but my interest started to wane with time. Picked up Oblivion for $10 at Best buy this winter. Best $10 I’ve ever spent. I am the Hero of Kvatch.

At the moment is
Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls but I’m looking for something better I’m thinking of buying a PC and play games I enjoyed as a teenager like Heroes 3 and 4 and Red Alert 1 and 2 but there is many more, but gaming is one of my ideas of trying to distract myself.
