  1. Every TES game. Mafia III gave me JUST over 40 on xbox, only because I did every underboss mission. NCAA football series has given me over 15,000 hours, but sports games aren't for everyone lol. Honestly, I'm USUALLY sucked into games that can be viewed as repetitive by others. I.e., dynasty modes in sports games, Custom zombies on World at War PC/Black ops III PC. You mentioned Shadow of mordor, i have about 20 so far, kinda burned out but I'm sure itll end up giving me 40. I just bought Red Dead Redemption 2 about 20 minutes ago, I'm pretty sure i'll get around 80 from it. At least. On the same note, GTA V and the first RDR. And shoutout to the path of exile mentions!
  2. Yes, always. I just switched to android after 4 years of using my 5c, currently just have a cheapo (but surprisingly good) amazon case. Doesn't have the protruding bumper on the front, which is dislike. I feel much safer with dropping my phone with the front bumpers.
  3. Used market was hard for me to find anything. Went with a 1050 ti, no complaints. Pull the trigger. Asus 4g OC (white) is amazing for me.
  4. Budget? I paired it with a R5 1600.
  5. I enjoy all of the Bioshocks. However, at the least try the first two. Metro (like the other guy said). As for Assassin's Creed, I can't answer that. I'm an historian and that series pisses me off for obvious reasons, albeit I do try to get into it sometimes. Assassin's Creed 3 was solid (6 or 7 out of 10 for me, on PS3). I think you should try the very first AC out, I haven't gone farther than 10 minutes besides those two. Spec Ops: The LIne is often very cheap on Steam sales (and other sites like G2a, although I despise their ethics), would work very well on your system.
  6. My old computer was a custom-built pile of junk off craigslist for $250 that actually serviced me quite well for 6-7 years. However, the motherboard died and it was time for a complete overhaul. So, a few weeks ago I built this: Motherboard: MSI b350 Tomahawk Arctic (Okay, I honestly just spent an extra $15 for the cool white arctic camo look; there are minor differences but this was my reason for it lol) CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 8gb of DDR4 RAM EVGA GTX 460 (1gb). - RECYCLED from old PC, card was given free to me from an online friend a couple years back as an upgrade to my integrated graphics I had been using. 1tb (WD Blue) HDD. (I don't need any more storage than this, except for a smaller sized SSD I wouldn't mine purchasing on sale in the coming months, purely for the speed). Same peripherals, such as my 1080p Samsung monitor. I absolutely loved getting my first POST, on my first try, everything worked. I think I had some beginner's luck. Overall, I spent around $600. Ryzen series is amazing to me. The downside was the fact that I had to recycle my GTX 460 for monetary reasons. I'm actually -okay- with this pretty 'meh' card, but, unfortunately, the fan is dying out, and is reaching up to low 90s C even in average games like Smite -- even after a hefty cleaning of dust out. That being said, -Thoughts? -Any other Ryzen 5 users? - Lastly, I thought I'd grab some GPU advice from the more knowledgeable. Since I'm upgrading my GPU with around a $200 or less budget; 1060 6gb ($249, it's a stretch but is it worth it?), the 3gb variant (scared of the VRAM bottlenecking in the next 2-3 years), for around $200, and my lowest tier choice is a 1050 TI for around $159. If you were in my situation, which would you grab with money being tight?
