FEAR is the only game that comes to mind for what you describe, it’s nothing super fast paced not too tactical and slow like ARMA. It’s got bullet time, guns feel good to use, maps are alright, lot of civil infrastructure, warehouses, and office spaces.

I play a lot of half life mods and could recommend some of those, but there’s a handful on steam so it’s easy enough to check them out. Not that half life is super tactical but it’s never required any super fast moves.

Arma 3 is kind of a maybe. I say it with years of muscle memory for the controls and only really play with friends vs ai.

If you meant for multiplayer I got nothing. I liked battlefield, the combined arms took a lot of pressure off having to be super good.

I’m desperately hoping my passport gets back to me, but Im not holding my breath for any country to take in any yank as a refugee. If any do though I won’t stick around.

thief 3 and deus ex invisible war built with with consoles in mind and it dragged them down so hard, along with oblivion having the cities gated off instead of a great big open map like morrowind

Honestly. Even in the crappy place I live things are just so sterile with gentrification. The world. Needs some sleaze.

Not unless they have a different system from the last time they tried it. I don’t have the article on hand ATM but something like 50% of crypto transactions were fraudulent. Which is also the sort of thing I would expect from crypto users

its even harder if you dont have a degree. The only people who really can get out are white collar types. Trade certs dont mean too much abroad + you have to have a job offer before you can get a work permit in most places ive looked at.

I can’t say much on pantheon, I’ve heard of it but it didn’t grab me enough to follow it like other projects. I’ve been following Evercraft which is a blocky EverQuest in progress (played during one of their alpha test weekends and it seemed promising) and legends of old; a free EverQuest clone in progress.

Ascension wow has a server in testing right now for a number of custom classes which has been interesting so far. (Other than that there’s project 1999 wish is just old EQ for all the good and bad of that. When I did play it I was able to get pick up groups in zones for leveling)

There’s also openCiv wich is based on 5 I think. Ran well on my phone but I suck at civ games

shattered pixel dungeon never bought it bc I don’t play much on my phone but it was good and easy to pick up and play

The final earth 2 simple city builder with missions and free build, shout-out to cool math games I had no clue it was on there till now

Flow fun puzzle game with a few variations, I actually paid for it bc I use it enough.
