Wife and I just threw in our i-130 a month or so ago, so I figured I'd increase my presence on this forum a bit. Been lurking and making the odd post for the past year and a half. 

Me and my wife tend to play lots of games together. (Sometimes a little too much, because I'm now dealing with eyestrain while at work). We tend to play stuff like Minecraft or fortnite. Personally, I'm not much for multiplayer stuff, as there's a lot of small children who yell at you, but she makes it entertaining for me. 

On my own time, I like to play single player games. Right now, I'm playing Mass effect. Well, I'm playing the trilogy. Great space opera with really interesting writing and sci-fi concepts. Super cool that they were also made in Canada :)

Anyone else playing games to pass the time while they wait?

I'm a PC gamer. Mostly play survival games like Ark, 7 Days to Die, or The forest right now. These are perfect for couples because its just you two in a world together and the games typically have no official ending so they go on and on. Harvest together, Build a base together, survive the wilds. Alot of fun. I also play World of Warcraft which is also good for couples to do together even though this one has a monthly subscription fee for both accounts.

Mass Effect is also in my top games ever bracket. I've replayed it a ton, certain songs on the soundtrack still make me tear up. I play a lot of Sid Meyer's Civilization too. Waiting to hear about Civ 7 hopefully next year!!

 

Right now I'm (re)playing Outer Wilds. Also space-related! Exploratory/some puzzle elements/also made me cry, but I really can't tell much about it without spoiling things. Also the kind of game you wish you could play for the first time again, but never can.
