I'll join the squad and also say LAN parties.
We would start on Friday afternoon, sometimes after school and lunch, then spent a few hours setting everything up in someones basement of weekend house, after which you would have two to three straight days of snacks, drinks and coffee, mostly playing Unreal Tournament.
Solo-wise I remember that I also could, without any issues, play UT from 4 PM till 4 AM if I had the time. I'm a sucker for shooters, always have been.
p.s. I tried Persona 5, the long-ass tutorial of 4 fkn hours killed me, I'll try it again sometimes, but man these devs weren't normal when designing the tutorial stage of the game.  

Hey there! With the blessing of Dan I just joined the community 🙂 I think last time I was active on a forum was back in 2010, so I'm def looking forward to exploring the platform and hanging out with you guys. Expect a learning curve and apologies for any mistakes down the road :D
 

Just a video to complement OP's first post :))
I actually tried re-watching some of the older stuff, Voltron to be specific, and it's hard. The animation and stories are really simple and you would need to be a kid to enjoy it again.

The industry changed a lot in the past 4 years, I'm trying to avoid it in general, not because I'm not up for it, but because it's not standardized properly yet.
I was working as a marketing consultant for a few operators and saw the switch from "We don't know what esports is" to "Ok let's offer esports betting on our site" and most of the larger operators who had an actual license to do it got burned in their first year.
I'm not gonna name any companies, but the process looked like this basically, the operators thought that
- they can do the numbers in-house with their own traders, not keeping in mind that their traders are not savvy with esports and don't know the market at all.
- they can believe the "large brands" within the esports world, and the more noise a team has generated on social media, the better they must be.
- the IESF organization will be open for partnerships (spoiler: they weren't)
- (most important) the users who will gamble will be mostly 18+ for Europe and 21+ old for Canada
In return what they got was an influx of minors with fake ID's and mom and pa's credit cards who wanted to gamble, and those who were old enough were also experienced within the esports world and knew the teams/players good enough to win almost every bet there was.
I remember that the biggest flop was that match where we had a female team competing in one of the earlier LCL's, I think the name was Vavictus or something along those lines.
In other words, the first few years were a disaster. Until the pandemic kicked, then all of a sudden the old traders were replaced by experienced esports traders, and the whole industry has somewhat matured. Nevertheless, there's still no historical data on a bunch of teams, and it's hard for the traders to set up the correct numbers.

CD Project Red announced that they are currently working on a new Witcher game, apparently its not Witcher 4 and Geralt is not going to be the main character. Im not sure who is going to be the protagonist but the picture shows a Lynx medallion, so it will not be somebody from the wolf school. I was really hoping to see Ciri as the main character but we will have to wait and see.

That's right. TESII: Daggerfall re-imagined in Unity engine is now available completely free on PC from GOG.
To get the game on GOG, click here. GOG link
 
It is possible to claim the game on Steam as well, but is a bit more of a hassle. You need to claim the original game on Steam (Find it here. It is also free.) then download the updated version from the Daggerfall Workshop Website then install it like it were a mod. Check the site for full details.
