  • Please correct my layman understanding if I’m wring here. But isn’t everything traveling in a straight line until an external force is applied. For example the earth orbiting the sun is traveling in a straight line in a curved apacetime. Also if you jump, the moment you leave the ground until you touch it again coming back down you were traveling in a straight line.











  • Some hard choices. I generally like my RTS and FPS games. I play a wide range of games from story driven like the BG series, to yearly play throughs of 93’s Doom, to mil sims like arma.

    I have a hard time to stick to one game for a long time, so whatever I pick would need to be moddable to bring some variety. I’m imagining maybe a stalker game where there’s a wealth of mods, but the world isn’t that large. Arma 3 might be nice, you got decent multi-player bots for when the world has moved on, it’s very moddable and relatively easy to set up new scenarios for yourself.

    I do like my sim racing as well, so asetto corsa would definitely be the main contender there.

    If I’d have to pick some games off the top of my head they’d be AoE 2, HL 2, Doom 2, asetto corsa, Ms flight sim (but the servers will die at some point), Arma.

    So I’m picturing myself in 40 years time, I’ve finished building my new rocking chair with the skills I’ve got from all this free time, I sit down in front of the same computer I have now. I’d say I’m launching up doom to do another play through of Sunlust. Hm or maybe I’ll do a bit more work on my at that point 10 year old OpenTTD save. Just something simple that will stand the test (and already has) of time, a game I can fire up and feel just as home in now, as I did last year, and the year before that.
