I've probably asked this before, and couldn't get the game on my Mac.  But I could hook the Windows PC to the router.  Where do I get that game?

Download the Steam software from here and install it. Use the Steam software to buy, install, and play games. Keep in mind that different games have different system requirements. If your computer isn't built for gamig, it probably can't handle something like The Witcher 3.

It's on Steam -- steam.com, or through your Steam client on the PC.  The website is here.  The Steam page should be here; I can't verify that because I'm at work and game sites are filtered.

I have finished it, but I expect to revisit it because the worlds are huge and I know I don't remember where everything is.  And they periodically add new levels -- they just added a winter-themed one.

Of all things--hooked on Morrowind again.   :dance:
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?<br />Then he is not omnipotent,<br />Is he able but not willing?<br />Then whence cometh evil?<br />Is he neither able or willing?<br />Then why call him god?

Hey, Morrowind was an awesome game. It blew my mind when I heard it had zero invisible walls, and that you could walk for several minutes in any direction. At the time, I don't know if there were any other games with that kind of free movement. And it had an open-class system, where your character could use any weapon, magic, or skill, and what your character was good at depended on how often you used the skill. The game gave the player so much freedom.

I think the last time I played it was about 10 yrs ago.  It hooked me on RPG's in general--until then I was strictly a Civ guy.  Morrowind hooked me as no other game had up to that time.  Oblivion and all the games that followed in that  line--up to and including Fallout 4.  Saw Steam had a reworked version on sale, and my old game would no longer work on my computer, I downloaded it.  The graphics are a bit dated, of course, but not as bad as I had feared.  The game itself is still very very good and the story(s) line is good, maybe the best of the entire series.  Anyway, hooked again...................

Morrowind is an a amazing game.  My first taste of a true open world.  And its story and faction system are great.

It has aged, but there are efforts underway to improve its graphics.  Skyblivion is coming.

If you’re going to criticize, at least be constructive. Being an ass about it doesn’t help me improve the quality of my videos.

If you have a decent PC, mod it. You can get the game looking much better that way.

My apologies.  You are quite correct.  I was criticizing something I knew little about.  I regret posting without understanding.

Battlefleet Gothic 2 will contain all 12 factions.

The previous one had Orks, Eldar, Imperial Navy, Chaos, and Tau.

The sequels adds Necrons and Tyranids, and several other factions.

You mean Skywind. Skyblivion is the project that recreates Oblivion in Skyrim's engine.

And here my major project for the day is cutting a rectangular vinyl tablecloth to fit the card table I want to reset my Windows computer onto for games...  I use a Mac for talking here.  The Windows is just for games.
