What Games Have You Been Playing Recently

Well, if we're talking about being/feeling old, I've been playing a game of Anno 1602 lately. I've been running it in a WinXP VM and just paying attention five minutes at a time over the course of a few weeks. The AIs are programmed to mimic what the human player does, so when I ignore the game the AI just sits there doing nothing. It's a rather convenient way of playing, because you can build up a ton of money just by running a small surplus. One side effect is the game offers you a statue to build for every hour that your people stay happy. The statues are a waste of space, so I don't bother building them. The AI, on the other hand...

Anno 1602 was my first game. A while ago, as a promotion for Anno 1800, Ubisoft had it for free - same game, but no separate VM necessary. Though I still do have one, as well as an old machine that's still running XP, to play it form my original disk.
I think I'll get back to it, after I finish Kingdom Come: Deliverance.

We need to start tearing down those statues.
I'll go get an angry mob.

Don’t worry, I sent the artillery.

Yes, I went down Nostalgia Road, and got C&C and RA Remastered. And that's basically what it is: Nostalgia. They amped up the engine and graphics, but everything else basically is what it was 25 years ago. ... Aaaand I just made myself feel old.
Also, I preordered Horizon: Zero Dawn for PC, and I'm hyped. I've seen most of the game on Twitch, but I still want to play it myself, it's just such a good story IMHO.

Oh shit! Are Red Alert and Red Alert 2 available in Windows 10 compatible versions? When I last looked I couldn't find any.
