Never played any video game in my life to be honest. That´s absolutely nothing against video games, I figure those are real fun, but I am a lot out in the mountains in my spare time and just never got into video gaming.

IF I´ll ever start to: What game would you recommend?
I'd pick up a used 3DS and look into the Zelda games. I have one I take camping once in a while.

I play mainly on pc, but I do have 2 Xbox 360s, an OG Xbox, 2 Playstation 2s, a wii... I think that's it. Normally play assetto corsa and elite dangerous, but fire up the 360 to play gta 5 and forza horizon (and a few others) from time to time.

Hard to play much though with a toddler, job, school... But I have fun when I can.

What video games are you all playing? I’m starting fallout new Vegas again hopefully gonna actually finish it this time.
I play almost nothing but Fallout and TES games. Well, except for 76, that game can rot in **** lol. I've played 3/NV/4 so many times I could write books, I have over 1k hours in each. Also a big Oblivion/Skyrim fan.

I recently started playing Destiny 2 and still enjoy playing Skyrim.

I played through Halo 5 about a month ago and was very disappointed and haven't played it since.

Destiny 2 on PC

The story and graphics of the campaign mode are amazing, but games with only one track to follow have limited appeal to me... Add to that the fact that success in PvP requires grinding for the best gear and the replay value is very limited, at least for me.

Im all about that PVP haha. Crucible is one of my favorite PVP games. You also dont get bored if you join a good clan :)

Just got Far Cry New Dawn Friday night and I'm loving it. But, I also really liked 5. It is technically the same "map" but it's so different I can't really find my way around like I could if it were the same as 5, there are the occasional landmarks you'll recognize but otherwise it's very different. So far my only gripe is that they did away with weapon mods, which really seems like a step backwards to me but in place of them they've added weapon tiers which almost does the same thing, you just have to find the weapon that does what you need instead of tweaking them to suit.

...got sucked in to playing Apex Legends by an Overwatch friend, it's My first battle royale experience, the game play is fast and intense, so I'm still fresh meat to boost other player's kill numbers.

The good part of it is that I needed a CPU upgrade to run AL, so it forced me to finally update my mobo bios and install my "new" used FX-8120... The cloud to that silver lining is that now I should probably get a better CPU cooler, so I can overclock without worrying about melting anything.

Sadly DRR2 is PS4/X Box only, so I won't be playing that any time soon :(

Currently running through the campaign of Red Dead Redemption 2- and there's just so much depth to the game, and so many fun (and funny) touches.
There's so many Easter eggs to find and exploring to do- and that's without hunting, fishing, train robbing, horse stealing, cigarette card collecting, stone carving finding, dinosaur bone hunting....

Xbox One of course. ;)
Warhammer 40000 is- basically- Lord Of The Rings on a cocktail of every drug known to man and genuine lunar dust, stuck in a blender with Alien, Mechwarrior, Dune, Starship Troopers, Fahrenheit 451 and Star Wars, bathed in blood, turned up to eleventy billion, set on fire, and catapulted off into space screaming "WAAAGH!" and waving a chainsaw sword- without the happy ending.

The movie was pretty fun, but really has nothing to do with the book. I watched the movie first, read the book many years later and wondered if the guy actually read the book before making the movie. Turns out, he really didn't. Haha! Love them both, and hear there's a more accurate movie in the works...
