   I never played Might and Magic.  At the time I think was the only person I knew   
    who never did.  I haven't thought about those games in years.  I picked up The   
    Witcher on CD a few years back and still haven't gotten it installed.  At some   
    point I had a look around and found there are some patches to fix various   
   issues caused by 10, newer drivers, etc.  I keep meaning to take the time to   
   get it installed and patched again.   
      
   There was a long list of stuff to get done at the Town Hall.  At one point I   
   never thought I was going to finish.   
      
   I just started working on Cities in Motion.  I was looking for something that   
   reminded me of the earlier versions of Sim City.  I really should take a look   
   at the most recent Sim City, but the version or two before it just didn't hold   
   my interest the way the earlier versions did.  That may be a perception   
   situation based on what other games were available when the earlier versions   
   were released.   
      
   Keep me posted if you hear anything about the next episode being released.  I   
   check the Steam forums every once in a while.   
      
   Take it easy out there...

    JH> These email conversations urged me to pick my story mode game back up   
    JH> and see where it goes.  Honestly, I hadn't really played since sometime

    JH> the town hall and am working on the next bit of travel out of the area.   
      
    JH> I've picked up an old game, Might and Magic VI, and have been tinkering   
    JH> with that off and on.  Weird I have 'fond' memories of this one but   
    JH> first thing I find is a lot of grinding to get characters at a decent   
    JH> enough level to do anything.   
      
    JH> Other than that, I frequent Sniper Elite 4.  There's an aspect of role   
    JH> playing and discover when playing in the campaign mode, typically play   
    JH> campaign solo.   
      
    JH> I am on the Hinterland mailing list, no news that I've seen regarding   
    JH> the next level yet...   
      
    JH> Stay safe and be well.
