Other Games
Anyone else play anything other than OOTP? I’m a Xbox guy. Been playing a lot of Battlefield 1, Call of Duty 4 Remastered, and Fallout 76.
Used to love playing Nascar 2003 on the pc and would love to get into Iracing but my PC isn’t fast enough.

Re: Other Games
May I recommend Eastshade. Unlike any other game out there. A peaceful exploration game. Tremendous atmosphere and soundtrack. Not a terribly long game. Open world, complete quests in any order, etc. Totally different than pretty much any game ever made.
I'm not much of a gamer by any means (insert jokes about my skill at OOTP here) but this one swept me up a bit.
I waited for a Steam sale and got it half price. Well worth it.

Re: Other Games
Many years ago I loved FPS games, starting with the original Doom. I played Medal of Honor quite a bit two decades ago, but since then only played various sports games. A couple years ago I bought a game called Hell Let Loose which is amazing. It is a WWII FPS game that I never get tired of playing.

Re: Other Games
I play a massive amount of football manager (basically what OOTP single player is for soccer, but only about 500x better). Also going to give the new F1 manager a shot when it comes out at the end of the month.

Re: Other Games
Used to love Microsoft FSX in a Piper Cub over VFR scenery, basically a Walking Simulator in the sky. Only issue was how long it took to properly setup and how much it crashed when you almost got it right.
Easthaven looks like an actual Walking Simulator so will try it out.
American Truck Simulator scratches same itch but controlling the truck on mouse/keyboard/joystick is uncool.

Pre-ordered the F1 manager as well and eagerly waiting.usnspecialist wrote: ↑Sun Aug 21, 2022 2:35 pmI play a massive amount of football manager (basically what OOTP single player is for soccer, but only about 500x better).

Top games I played (and spent most time on):
Civilization (all from civ2 to current), all RDR's, all GTA's, AoE III, FM, and a lot of RCT II and III, and since I love professional cycling also a lot of PCM's. Also X plane and MFS.
Also tried all sorts of sports management games but none comes close to OOTP or FM. I place OOTP over FM though, but that's personal I guess.

Re: Other Games
I love Football Manager. I have only played one long campaign since getting it last year. Started with Derby County and got them to the Premier League only to go back down the next season (I think this must be coded into the game!) and then Leeds wanted me so I begrudgingly left. Having a hell of a time getting them consistently in the top half over many seasons.

Re: Other Games
I play a lot of Risk on my phone. It helps me unwind.
As far as other PC games, I've been known to binge play Open RCT2 and Total Extreme Wrestling. I've been dying to get into Cities Skylines, but the level of mods I want to play at, my laptop says no!

I started with some random 2nd division romanian club (i start with the lowest coaching level), won the 2nd and 1st division in back to back years before going to PAOK in greece for 2 years before jumping to Atalanta and been there for the last 6-7 (including multiple Serie A titles and the Champions League. Looking to move to an EPL team after this season, or maybe jumping over to Wrexham for the laughs.

I’ve got The Show 21 on the Xbox. I have a love hate relationship with it. When it plays well I love it. When the defense does weird things I hate it.

Update on this for me. F1 manager is pretty good, although not on level of football manager.

At this point I've retired from pretty much all video games other than OOTP, unless it's something like Solitaire or Sudoku.

I hate how much I like this game. It’s the longest running continuously updated game in PC history, I believe. Started in the 90’s.

OK, tell me more. I own this game. I have played it -- according to Steam -- seven hours. And I survived a bit and then it felt like drudgery. How does it become fun? Does it become fun?shoeless.db wrote: ↑Thu Sep 15, 2022 4:09 pmUnreal World.

That's the thing about survival games. The concept sounds intriguing, but then I have to keep repeating basic chores and it feels like work.

Beside OOTP, only "Mind Games."
I've heard great things about Football Manager, like you can communicate with players and/or coaches. I would love it if we could get a message through to one of our baseball players.
