I downloaded Elite Dangerous last night. Played the intro training bit and it looks like it's going to be fun. Then I spent an hour trying to get VR to work correctly, it wouldn't give me keyboard and mouse control in VR. Finally figured it out right before bed, but spent a few minutes flying around a space station. Pretty sweet!

Now I need to invest in a good HOTAS setup.

Would recommend TM Warthog HOTAS, top notch but pricey.
Lower segment x56 or TM-16000 would do also.

DCS is amazing. You need to be patient with it, but its super rewarding to learn how to fly and operate those aircraft. I fly the f/a-18 and there always something new to figure out (new radar, new weapons, etc), so it doesn't get boring. Plus the ability to create custom multi-player missions is a huge value add!

My buddies and I recently got back in to Destiny 2 after they screwed up COD Warzone(at least to us its a mess). I still dabble in Ride 4, Forza 7(while I wait for the next one). Have a gaming laptop and I'm looking into eventually gaming on it.

I've been playing a modified version of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. This game is HARD lol. I like me some Demon's Souls/Dark Souls but geez is it difficult. The modified part is just so I can run higher resolution and framerate, because who plays at just 16:9 or just 60hz anymore?

Does unlocking the frame rate change difficulty / break the game? I know stuff like RE2 remake, the frame rate directly effects the damage of your knife. You can 3 hit the first boss at like 200fps.

Framerate doesn't appear to impact the game at all which is awesome. I'm able to enjoy it at 21:9 and max frame rates. It's great. From Software games typically have a 60fps cap. I also modified Dark Souls 3 to run with an uncapped framerate without issues.

I'm super stoked for God of War:Ragnarok, Callisto Protocol, Dead Space Remake, and I'll replay The Last of Us Part 1 (although that $70 price tag does bother me), and upcoming Diablo 4.

I'm thinking of getting the new COD:MW II on my laptop. I gotta see if I can get a good wifi hotspot that works in the middle east. Hopefully I can find time to play while overseas.

Im not a fan of consoles, they had ruined some very popular PC games caused by enabling crossplay and mixed experiences, biggest bs ever!

I'm a casual console gamer rather than a dedicated PC gamer. I may get the controller and plates for my PS5. I'm still debating.

You need what's called a Scuf controller with the paddles on the back.

If you're playing first person shooters it's essential (like Warzone) Will take you a day or so to get used to and than you will wonder how you lived without it. Xbox Elite controller will work also

My HOTAS Warthog will be here tomorrow. I've been holding off on playing too much Elite Dangerous until I got one, so that will be what I'll be playing a lot of after tomorrow.

Over the past 6 weeks while I was at a course I built a massive base in Space Engineers. I have a few things to finish up on it and work out the programming, then I'll put it into play. Maybe I'll upload a video of it.

I snatched up Titanfall2 while it was on sale on Steam, played about an hour, but haven't really gotten into it. I just can't get into "this is your only path" campaign style games anymore.

Havent touched AC Valhalla in a day so I went to fire it up last night to burn up time while the gf was busy... 19GB update... so that was a no-go.

Anxiously waiting for Starfield to come out. I have a feeling it will consume my life.
