We have yet to succeed on that front, but we keep on trying. Potshot was just yesterday gesturing and waggling is eyebrows in the direction of Baldur’s Gate 3, something that would scratch the D&D rules and settings itch that both he and I get. Of course, there is always some effort going into finding the next title the group might play.
#LORD OF THE TEST MINETEST RINGS PC#
But I think I most enjoyed those titles on the Wii playing with my daughter rather than sitting at my desktop PC with a controller. But not right now.Īnd then LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. Oh, Valheim… if we weren’t still knee deep in WoW Classic we might be playing that. Then there is Diablo III, which I thought I might play to join in on what might be the final season event… and then I started playing and felt very much like I had done this all before multiple times… and I was right. But for the most part it sort of burned out over the course of a few weeks. I might still go back and play some Civ II.
#LORD OF THE TEST MINETEST RINGS SERIES#
There there was my Civilization series binge. Maybe, in a few years, when they actually work on 4K support I’ll play again. Dealing with tiny UI elements took its toll on me. LOTRO is in there from my run at Lossless Scaling to try and deal with its large screen monitor issues.

Pancake Cake is the Rick Rolling of Imperium fleet ops.Īnd after that too we fall into single digit percentages to fill out the remaining ~18% of my play time that year. I will go on a three hour op and find that it was my focused window for less than 90 minutes because I’ll be in Jabber or Discord or on a web site looking up our route or a system or the FC we’re facing or seeing if a kill mail showed up on zKillboard or watching that Pancake Cat video yet again because somebody linked it behind a fake title yet again. I will also, once again, note that it gets under counted by ManicTime because it is a title you end up tabbed out of a lot of the time. I am pretty much on a dozen year run at this point with it. But there are clicks to be had by being chronically petulant and eternally aggrieved about even the tiniest thing Blizzard does.Īnd then, of course, there is EVE Online, perennially my “other” MMORPG. And I’ll take a special rules server, if you want to call it that, over no server at all. There was never going to be one version that would please everybody. I called that back when Blizzard officially announced that WoW Classic was going to be a thing. I know that there are people out there crapping all over it because it wasn’t the exact set of features that THEY insisted would make it a REAL classic version of the expansion, that unless if conforms to their specific (and usually unrealistic or simply wrong) set of requirements that it isn’t a “classic” server but a mere “special rules” server.īut that was always going to be a problem.

I actually have a lot to say about how good it was and how much Wrath Classic has reminded me of all of that. Well, I seem to be enjoying it again, which gives weight to the idea that it was perhaps the peak of World of Warcraft for a reason. Was it really that good? Did I really have that good of a time? Or is that all nostalgia and rose colored glasses making it seem that way? I have in the past questioned myself and even tried to quantify my fondness for the Wrath era of WoW. In some ways that is a comforting number. I have spent a lot of time playing WoW Classic, and specifically Wrath of the Lich King Classic. There are thirteen titles on that list, but only two dominate… well, one really. I suppose the list isn’t all that surprising. This is where I drag out my ManicTime spreadsheet for 2023 and see how the totals look.
