15,000+ hours on AoE II.

Prolly about as many hours (well not quite) watching it on YouTube for me Wink (T90 Official etc)... I can't play it for shit myself... I'm not quick thinking enough... but it's a great game to watch for the strategy etc, and all the interesting setups and community games that T90 does.

If you're playing against the AI just hit the pause button. Haven't played in a while, ~98% win gets old after a while. I have III, haven't tried it yet.

Yeah there is that, but I know my limitations and it's a stressful game to play, and it feels like you need to be an octopus to play it Wink Much respect though to anyone, like yourself, who has mastered it but for me it's just something I dip into every now and again if the mood takes me, but mainly just enjoy watching it. I used to play with Hammy, if you remember him... but he was much better than me and kind of teaching me.

I've reached the next timed run in Ori and the Will O' Wisps. I hate timed runs, and it looks to focus on a skill I'm not great at due to my fingers, so it may take a lot of attempts.

I've been playing Ticket To Ride. The add-on with all the maps costs $25. I think I'll make that a Christmas gift.

If you wouldn't consider it cheating, that controller I mentioned has a feature that might help with that; it has a lot of high tech 'pro' features, one of which is to basically record macros... Ie record a sequence of button presses and presumably bind a button to it. I didn't get it for the pro features, and probably will never use them, but this one may be helpful for you.

I don't know. The skill requires you to hold a button down and aim the stick and then let go. I have to do that in discrete steps as I have difficulty finding the button while aiming.

Right... probably not then if aiming is involved. This sounds more like the sort of thing you'd use for those old-fashioned cheat codes for games in the nineties, eg up down left right A B C etc. It does say it records for up to ten minutes, so that shows it does factor in timing, which might be helpful for you, but I don't know how you'd do in conjunction with aiming.

Probably why Dragon Age: Dreadwolf was delayed.

Canada's first ever unionised game staff, working on Dragon Age: Dreadwolf, have all been fired

Got to a speed run in Ori that I wasn't supposed to get to at this time. After trying to figure my way through, I consulted a playthrough on Youtube to see what I was doing wrong. I didn't see anything, so I backtracked in the video to the most recent powerup. That powerup, which I'd bypassed, was required to beat the timed run. I thought I was going to have to start all over with a new character, but checking the options menu, I found you can choose to abandon the speed run. Whoo!
