Kingdom Come Deliverance? I never played it, but it's for some reason popular right now.

Since I'm looking for a new PC suitable for gaming, I was wondering if an Acer Predator or HP Omen would be the best choice. Any opinions about those machines, gentle gamers?

I made it to the second dungeon in Ocarina of Time. I can't believe I didn't figure it out earlier.

My specific area of expertise is American equipment, along with a mixture of French, German, Soviet, and British stuff as well. For the latter four, it's mainly WWII, but I'm familiar with American equipment of all eras. I personally haven't played WoT. Would you recommend it?

As a longtime player of the console port of WoT...

I would struggle to unequivocally recommend it. Do you like tanks? And team-based arcade shooters? Those are your main two draws. Monetisation is mostly fair but often "ehhhh"
I'm having more fun with World of Warships, a sister game to WoT also by Wargaming. Similar concept obviously, but with radically altered mechanics.

PC, as well as Xbox and PS4. There are... arguments for and against the console ports. The intended experience is on PC, though consoles are mostly uniform in performance, while a potatotop loses to a monster machine.

Yeah, Skyrim is fun. I think that Oblivion is better, but I can agree with the above statement.

I need to play Morrowind sometime.

Oblivion's central story i like a lot more, and some of the secondary quest lines, but i like Skyrim more for its gameplay and skill system which grew on me really quickly.
