What Are You Doing Right Now

Today my eldest (five years old) and I played from beginning to end in the AGD Interactive remake of King's Quest I: Quest for the Crown. I am pretty sure that I have not played that game through since roughly 1997 and only once before that around 1987. That means that it was only a decade between the first two times that I played it but seventeen years since the last time! Wow am I getting old.

No, Skyrim was the first of the Elder Scrolls games that I've played.
I had a gander at reviews of the previous games, some screen shots and general info about them but I'm not sure if I'll end up playing them.
They are classics, might be worth checking out. Especially given how cheap they are on a Steam sale. Morrowind will run on pretty much any computer today. Oblivion needs a bit more but is not going to push any new hardware too hard. Both are really well made. You don't want to look at further back than Morrowind, it drops to completely different gaming style. But those two are instrumental in redefining the genre.

Dang it! @Carnival-Boy had the 1000th post! I was 10001 though, so I was the one that technically "topped" us.

Went well. I have a lot of things to learn. The training vids they are having me watch are about as bad as they come, in terms of dullness. It's slides with a manuscript being read by a computer, and it's not hidden, well really at all, that it's a computer reading it. Snoozefestapalooza...

That being said, they give each tech freedom to play on their own virtual network on a VMware infrastructure to spin up anything from Server 2000 to Server 2012 to XP to Windows 8.1 to Linux. They let you build and play to gain experience with the products and the platforms. Pretty stinkin' cool I think.
-
Sounds pretty cool. Good luck!

And I am off to bed....
