All About That Bass - Postmodern Jukebox European Tour Version

Woof! :D
I.e., a uniquely Euro-American, sexy mashup of ridiculous fun.

My favorite video-game of all times and across genres is definitely FTL - Faster Than Light, a classic of the roguelite (not roguelike) genre.

Ooh, I love RL's to death (any variety), and have heard about FTL since forever.

Nico, could you recommend me a reliable way to use one's credit card in a secure way? I used to have PayPal, but my acct lapsed with unused activity.

My favorite adventure is Disco Elysium

Hmm, do you think it would work for a slowpoke like me..?

More later?
Anyway, thanks for the feedback, bro! ^^

EDIT: Wait wait wait... if you happen to know a good "tall ships" game, then please add on? I'd totally forgotten about the film below.

I think I was too immature to appreciate it at the time, but in retro, I find it absolutely astonishing:

Then there is no question, you have to try it! :D

The other game by that dev team Into the Breach, might appeal to you too. It´s also a roguelite but of a totally different kind than FTL. The gameplay is a unique mix of chess and battletech/mechwarrior inspired turn based tactical combat.

Sorry I pay everything online with PayPal and don´t have a credit card. Paying with your credit card on steam should be just as secure as paying with PayPal though. Also, you can just create another PayPal account whenever you want. I did it once and it worked fine.

"My favorite adventure is Disco Elysium" Hmm, do you think it would work for a slowpoke like me…?

For sure, it very much plays like an interactive crime novel, so you set the pace as you like while you play. The game is all about atmosphere and storytelling. In my opinion they could have released the story as a book just as well. If you feel like playing a filthy and dark criminalistic adventure in a capitalist dystopian setting with socialist undertones, put it on your list.

More later?

Sure, ask me anytime.

Sorry, I am not really sure what genre you mean by that. I liked Sunless Sea though, which is an outstanding lovecraftian / psychological horror roguelite, centered around ships exploring an underground ocean. The setting is based on the free to play, interactive narrative game https://www.fallenlondon.com

Oh yes! I heard that this is one of the few movies that does the topic justice and is really historically accurate. I have to watch it sometime!
