This has been my default for a couple years now. Qwant search is ok at best but I mainly use it because I wanted an EU alternative with some privacy. As for Vivaldi I think its great, and especially with an OISD list with the built in blocker.

Those “online pass” days were grim. Xbox Live gold sub and I need an online pass to play BF3!

I’d say the easiest/quickest way to start is on a console with a headset and using your phone to manage the stream. Just sit down, launch a game and start chatting to yourself. If you have a console that is?

PC isn’t exactly difficult but you’ll need to set up and use something like OBS.

I think making and keeping it a hobby you enjoy is the key to success. Don’t burden yourself with thinking you have to be popular and just play what you want and when you want.

Fable Anniversary

I think I’m in the end game now. I was going to go through and find all the collectables first (silver keys, dolls, demon doors etc) but I think I’ll just finish the story and move on to Fable II.

Forza Motorsport 4

Picked it up a couple days ago and played a few hours already. It’s just as fun as I remember but a shame the 360 doesn’t have online functions anymore for the “rivals” stuff. It still looks really good and makes you realise why the console lasted for so long.

RVGL

It’s an OpenGL port of Re-Volt and a lot of fun!

Bridge of Spirits is great so looking forward to this. I wasn’t expecting a sequel but it’s a shame it’s probably a year away :/

Masters of Albion comes out this year, and quite soon, on 22nd April, and seeks to give us a dose of Dungeon Keeper, Black & White and Fable all in one.

Honestly it sounds and looks great but no way am I buying an early access Molyneux game!

Mars Tactics is probably top now that Cairn was released last week. Actually honestly I’m most excited for the Coaches DLC for ETS2 :D
