I used to be a gamer. -Console games across the board, although Super Smash Bros was the one I put over a thousand hours into. -For PC, I played a lot of Subspace Continuum, StarCraft I and 2, and Overwatch. I hardly play any digital games anymore, mainly because I work on my computer all day and want to touch grass in my spare time, although I do play Dungeons and Dragons tabletop. View quoted note →

My XBox 360 red-ring-of-death'ed in 2012 while I was half-way through Skyrim. I then sold all my games and controllers and didn't play another video game until last winter when I downloaded Baldur's Gate. So I returned to 90's era gaming and I'm okay with that.

My guilty pleasure for a long time was RISK board game. And when we found online versions... My Lord 🫠 So much different maps and configuratios! So much fun and a bit of knowledge gathered along the way about geography, history, strategy and a bit of math 🤗 well at least that's what I tell myself 😅
I stopped gaming hard a few years ago in order to go down rabbit holes and start earning money straight out of med school but then I met @TheGrinder and @S!ayer , and got lost in gaming for a month. Playing with bitcoiners is awesome, no regrets, especially since I think I needed to chill and charge my batteries. Ready to get back into the real world though, time really flies while having a good time but it doesn't pay the bills.

Never heard of Smash Bros, I had an Atari STE - Bubble Bobble, Prince of Persia, Rick Dangerous, Carrier Command, Stunt car racer & Gauntlet - I'll always remember the "You are about to die" voice on that one lol. Moved to SNES with Super Mario, Mario kart, Zelda - what a magnificent game! N64 was next and last - Goldeneye! Recently got the Nintendo Switch (for my kids), well that was until I discovered I can download all the legacy games!
