Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn

A true unicorn of a game. Got the 4 CD pack and ringed instruction manual at Staples in the late 1990's. I think it was $4. Quality across the board. The cd case had incredible fantasy artwork. The thick manual with color commentary from wizards. And the game itself was deep. Unmatched for the 90's.

I don't think of it as a game anymore. It's a masterpiece of art. Nothing will ever be quite like it again. Not nostalgia, just the fact of the matter.

Fallout 1,2 also. Not quite on BG2s level but I still play them. I got both 1,2 as a $10 pack in the late 90s or early 2000's. deep F'ing value.

Sim City 4 and Civilization 5. Both are timeless and I still play them a few times a year. Hard to believe Sim City 4 is over 20 years old.

What mods do you use with SimCity 4? I've been wanting to get back into it and was looking for something like a mod pack without having to download a bunch of individual assets, but it doesn't seem to exist.

I don’t use any mods, I’m a pretty casual player but maybe I should look into some.

I'd looped through Universal Paperclips[1], exCtly 100 times in a row, when I accidentally clicked on the option at the end to actually exit instead of restart. I figured is was a sign from God Why? - I managed to get Covid/Long Covid in 2020, and have subsequently been yeeted out of the workforce, and find myself with nothing but time on my hands, and little energy to actually do anything productive. I've played tho…

Ditto on minecraft. I get sea sick playing it. But other 3D, first person games like skyrim are OK. Not sure why.
