Keeping busy... any gamers here?

(Not sure if this is the right subforum, but it was the closest I could think of)

One of the unexpected side-effects of quitting for me has been having much more free time, since I’m not just laying in bed getting wasted and wandering around the internet! I was really worried about being bored, so as well as reading and journaling, I’m getting back in touch with my gamer roots.

Completed a 100% run-through of Ocarina of Time (I have some OLD consoles, lol), did Bioshock 1 on Hard difficulty, and I was considering redoing Bioshock 2 or Dishonored, but the husband got me this new game called Slime Rancher which is cute and SO relaxing! So now I’m a little bit hooked on that.

Anyone else here finding you’ve got more time for gaming lately? What are you playing? :smile:

Funny, I picked up spades again for the first time in about a hundred years. I played like a madman in college. I know it’s not hardcore gaming, but it eats time.

I was getting back into pc gaming, then my graphics card decided to go bust. :frowning:

My rig is getting old and no point just replacing the gfx card…

But my favorite games are RTS and city builders… Patience is a virtue with these types of games.

I’ve done the same. Got back into gaming. I played through crash 3. I had watched a play through of the remake and made me wanna play again. Now I’m started on Dead Island. It’s nice to be playing again. When I was getting drunk and would play was much much harder. Lol. So I didn’t play as much. Like never honestly.
