What Are You Playing Now: The Other, Other Thread
ShadySands replied to Amentep's topic in Computer and Console
Trump was right all along I've not played much of anything today but I did get to level 31 is ESO the day before. I think what drives me so crazy is that I never feel like I'm accomplishing much as I level up as I barely feel more powerful at 31 than I did at level 1. Also still trying to clear out the majority of my quest log because when I started the game I had a quest that took me all over the place and I kept picking up more quests along the way and the log tops off at 25. I'm pretty sure the game started me someplace else than when I played before because I was fighting dragons without knowing what I was doing, other than dying a lot. Finished another game of Civ 6 yesterday. I didn't win yet but I was dominating so much that it was no longer fun. I'm not even that good but I had legendary start even though I don't think that exists in Civ 6 as a mechanic like it did before. I picked random civ and got the Maori who I've never used before and really had no strategy. I started in the ocean on a boat but landed on some islands between two continents that had goody huts galore and tons of resources. I was able to quickly expand to all five islands in my chain and also get a city on the coast of each continent. So with 8 cities fairly early in the game and all of the resources I could want I was already sitting pretty when the Ottomans or someone declared war on me. AI must have glitched or something because they had next to no army and fell like me trying to go down stairs. So now I had 11 cities who were strangely all happy enough not to rebel. A bunch of turns later I was winning in every category so I just called it quits because it's fun to dominate a little bit but not the entire game. -
Thanks, for some reason I thought it was about the George Floyd black square thing but that makes waaaaay more sense

Yes, paid for by his rich absentee father as he is a C- D+ student at best. Hangs out with the "Do you know who my father is?" crowd. Pastel polo shirts with popped collars, shorts, boat shoes, the whole 9. Fella never had a chance. Mother was physically present some of the time but never mentally there because of the pills and booze which she needed to deal with her husband who was always on "business trips." -
Isn't that just one of ZeniMax/Bethesda's normal logos? From 2010

Sounds like something a douchebag named Cameron would name his junk. I had to cut out almost all of what I had originally written up. I had a full backstory for this dude and everything but I don't think it really added anything to this post and mostly just showed how weird I am. -

I think this is my last Google phone. I tried to buy one of those weird Euro chargers with the two little short for Richards but they won't sell one to me because I'm currently in the US. The official support response was to use an adapter or a computer or buy one when I get to Europe. Can anyone recommend me a good USB C charger for Europe? I don't know the brands at all. -

Champion 30? I've been playing this for a couple weeks and I still have no idea what much of anything is. I just hit level 28 I think it was after I decided to give the game another shot after my login issues. -

Doing a one city challenge game now as the Cree. Early game so far has been about spamming their unique recon unit for goodie huts and to meet some suckers friends to trade with. -

Finished my Civ 6 game. This time I won a cultural victory with Sumeria. Early war cart rush followed by ziggurats everywhere to boost science and culture. -

Been playing more ESO with some Civ6 mixed in. I started just doing Dark Brotherhood missions almost non stop and only other quests if they are nearby or on the way, quest log is too small to pick up a bunch of quests at once. I went to log in just now and I got a login queue with a wait time of 25 minutes. Now I think I'm finally done with this game, not going to wait in line to play. -

Considering buying the new Civ DLC pack -
He may genuinely love the Picard show, I like a lot of bad stuff too, but his fawning over it in a those clips was a bit over the top. Obviously those clips were included to be made fun of and maybe they aren't as bad in the full context of the show but I'll probably never watch The Ready Room to find out.

I make my own nowadays. Just peel lemons and soak the peels in a strong neutral spirit for a while then drain and mix the liquid with water and sugar. That way I can control the sweetness and make sure there are no additives in my adult lemonade. -

I really suck at ESO. My dark elf vampire sorcerer spends more time dead than anything else and during the rare moments when he is alive then he is facing the wrong direction
