Running concurrently with the Console Gamers thread, who here is a PC gamer? What are you playing at the moment?

We’re both playing far too much World of Tanks at the minute. C plays Banished, The Sims and lots of other city builder/life sims. S spends his time on Overwatch and Crusader Kings, but also plays a lot of RPGs and strategy.

I used to play a lot of Crusader Kings 2. Awesome game. These days I prefer the company of people and have almost stopped gaming completely.

Fantastic game

S has some ridiculous number of hours logged on it... especially with the Game of Thrones mod.

We go through phases... some weekends we literally just stay in and game for two straight days, then we don’t do it for weeks.

I've tried desperately to download and install that. Only problem is.. my copy of CK2 is exactly that and won't accept and mods.

I did manage to get all the DLC though, can you guess who I play as?

A certain cheeky chappy from somewhere over China way with a penchant for conquering, looting and general misbehaviour?

I don't game as much as I'd probably like to but I love some Escape From Tarkov, and I like the look of this new Apex Legends. K almost certainly wouldn't call herself a gamer but likes a bash on the Sims or a platformer every now and then

Much more creativity involved but Planet coaster is pretty good.

Two point hospital really is an improved theme hospital.

I no longer really get tied to a set few games, I seem to rotate in phases which I play.

It's very good true to the old Mw4. Worth a download and look if you enjoy the original Mech games & a free to play upto a point as with all these free online games.

Mechwarrior 5 up for release in September this year

I dont like steam as you dont even own the game.

all you own is a code for the site and pay through the nose for.

Yet if the site goes down or they decide to delete said file you own nothing and cant play it.

Valve have stated in the unlikely event that they shutdown steam they will make a patch that allows it to still be usable.

valve may state it but where does it say that in the eula as it dosnt.

Its NOT in their EULA and they are under no legal obligation to do so.

you cant even play the games on an offline computer as the game phones home so then becomes unplayable.

Yes you can, just make sure the game is up to date, and put Steam in offline mode

Kitana, we have to ask... has anyone ever messaged you after viewing your profile and said something along the lines of: “hang on, so you’re looking for a guy who asks you out by throwing three feet of steel at you and screaming “GET OVER HERE!!!”?
