I wasn't really trying to start a discussion on politics, I was just pissed when I heard that we are headed towards another cold war.
That is something I really wish we would leave behind in the past.

I still do occasionally write on some ideas I have, I wish though I had the determination and focus to work on some of the larger stories I have in mind such as a Star Trek story titled "The Immortality Salesmen".
But is all basically fan fiction, not something that is really my own creation which is in general something better to focus on.
Plus I can't really do anything with it such as my game ideas as that requires a lot more skills and resources than I possess.

I haven't done much with the design course, that is something I am ashamed off to be honest.
Want to change that this month.

As for games, what I would really like is a good Sci Fi FPS game like Half Life or Jedi Knight to immerse myself into for a couple of days. Good storyline, big levels with multiple paths, various enemy types, creative settings, loads of replayability.
I am looking forwards to Alien Isolation but that is a different kind of beast.

A good action-adventure game would also be great. A while ago I played a couple of fun old ones such as Mega Man Legends 2 and Dead Head Fred.
