He must be incredibly bored at work, or started watching "Orange Is The New Black".

And don't laugh: Wildlife Park 2 Domestic Animals is looking pretty good.  I could raise Yorkies. :wub:

The new Wolfenstein game is $20 on Steam for anyone looking to kill Nazis.

Still the best classical FPS of 2014.

Classical as in the engine, or classical as in a WW2 shooter?

Unironic single player shooter mit focus on gunplay (and some optional stealth). It's completely silly alt- hist over the top action, but takes itself serious at the same time. Kind of like an 80s action flick. And it has some of the best world building with many little details (even more so if you speak German). There's a thread about it here, I think. If you can get it for 15 to 20 bucks: buy it. The campaign is 12 hours, IIRC.

It's actually a really neat game.

Do I look like I play games? I buy them, I don't play them. I'm the CdM of Steam. :P

I have 351 games according to my library (or 359 according to my profile :hmm: ), and only 6 titles have more than 50 hours playtime: Sims 3 (130 hours  :blush: ), Civ5 (84 hours), CK2 (82 hours), Bejeweled 3 (73 hours :blush: ), Dragon Age Origins (71 hours), Skyrim (51) hours. Over 300 with less than 5 hours. Not to mention about 200 titles with less than an hour in it.

It's why the Steam sales have become rather unexciting for me - a lot of the discounted titles that I'd be interested have the "in Library" tag by now. :blush:

TBF, some games I've finished are short, i.e. under 20 hours (Batman, Wolfenstein, SpecOps: The Line and others).

I've got 14 games in my Steam library, but three of them have more than 100 hours of playtime: EU4, CK2, Civ V.

Humble bundle has boosted the amount of games I haven't even installed by a significant amount.

It's weird with me, though. It's not that I don't want to play the games, or lack the time to do so. But for some reason I instead end up watching someone else play a game I enjoy on Twitch or YouTube. Sometimes for hours.

Sitting down and playing through DA:O recently was a big thing for me, because I rarely finish games that size (last ones to come anywhere near that would have been ME1&2 back to back), and it took some serious effort in the end to stay focused.

I've got like 180. :(
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

That is fucking bizarre.
