I haven't played a new game in years

Which often leaves me in tears

But I will always have my memories

At least until I lose my faculties

There's a guy who lives in my area who looks like Ryan. Never noticed him until a few months after Ryan passed. Not gonna lie, there was a time when I was still in the denial phase that I tried to convince myself Ryan got tired of the fame and moved to Canada.

@ltsmash: That video is beyond pointless. They censor all the clips. Anywhere we can watch it in a format that actually makes sense?

Be my Pauly Shore and Sean Astin!
Be my Pauly Shore and Sean Astin!

I doubt anyone will remember me, but I used to be pretty active around here and I'm looking to get back into PC gaming. I just got out of an abusive relationship where I basically had to give up gaming for the past 3-4 years and sell every gaming related thing I own. A couple years in I had to stop coming to GB because it was driving me nuts hearing about stuff I knew I could never play. But hey! I'm free from all that now, and it just dawned on me tonight that I can do this and no one's keeping me from it any more! Yay me! So as part of my recovery process I'm trying to get back into old hobbies and PC gaming was my life for many years. So this is one of my new short term goalson my road to recovery/normalcy.

I don't really have a budget in mind at the moment, and I'm mostly trying to get an idea of what hardware to keep an eye out for these days. Any advice on what to look for and what places to go to re-learn is appreciated. Here's what I know so far:

  • I'm looking to start with catching up on games I missed from like 3-4 years ago before even contemplating recent stuff. When I checked out of gaming Shadow of Mordor was what everyone was going nuts for. To help give you a time frame of the games I will be looking to play. Short list of games I know I want to be able to play that are more recent, I think, are Blood Bowl 2, and Total War Warhammer. Still can't believe they didn't call it Total Warhammer. I think there might even be a second Total Warhammer. Man is it tough being so out of date.
  • Because of my living situation a desktop is sadly not an option, so I'm going to need a laptop. What's the standards in graphics cards and processors I should be looking for if I eventually want to play more recent games? Is AMD still terrible? Is the i7 processor still high end? Is 8GB of RAM still good enough? What about installation inflation? Are games 100 GB yet? Would a 1-2 TB hard drive still be enough? Are higher capacity SSD affordable yet? Have SSD been replaced yet? Do I need to install a port anywhere on my body yet? What part of the body has the smallest amount of irritation for the port? I'm not expecting to run whatever the new hot thing is maxed out, but I would like to be able to play the odd more recent game from time to time.

That's all I can think to ask at the moment. Apologies if I'm not posting correctly. I will rewatch Brad's old video to build a PC. I'm sure it's still relevant!
