I couldn’t really settle on what to play this week so I ended up with a bit of a mess.
First things first, Counter-Strike 2 is no more. As engaging as the game is something just doesn’t feel right for me with this one. My main issue seems to have something to do with controls since I never had this many issues getting stuck on corners and doorways with any of the previous games. I don’t know what it is, I just can’t get the feeling for them.
There’s also a pretty severe performance issue which feels like a memory leak that happens quite often in the middle of a match - again, don’t know why since it doesn’t happen every time or only on certain maps.
All in all, I can safely say I had way more fun with CS:GO but since the legacy branch won’t work for me (game only flickers for a second and closes) I can safely put this experiment to rest.
Second, my The Sims playthrough might be finished because of the sequel. I installed TS2 to refresh my memory and compare it with the original - I ended up playing through the night with barely any breaks. As much as I love the first game TS2 is just on another level and I ended up launching it whenever I had some free time, in contrast to the original which requires me to be in a specific mood to enjoy it.
I didn’t have this much fun with the series in a long time now so it was funny to go through this return arc only to see EA release the legacy packs. I hope lots of new folks get to enjoy those games as both hold up really well despite their age.
I also spent some time playing Euro Truck Simulator 2. It was my main choice whenever I couldn’t focus on anything.
Daggerfall is on hold until I had my fill of The Sims. It might take a while but I’ll be back, eventually.
Medabots also took a back seat to some extent but I’m still actively playing here and there.
