Hello from an adult (read old man) player

Hello all...

 

About me...I am a 67 yo retired mechanical engineer that is divorced with no children. I rode the F35 program (fighter aircraft) from 1995 to retirement in 2010.

 

I have been playing on Xbox 360/one for about 4 years and did not realize mods even existed until 4 days ago, therefore, I have only played vanilla versions of all games.

 

My first game was Red Dead Redemption, then I got into the Assassins Creed series (love Black Flag).

 

I found Skyrim and was instantly hooked. I probably have close to 2000 hours play time and have been up to level 167.....all done with no mods. I am currently on my umpteenth play through and have gotten back to level 60 in 6 days.

 

Wintertime in North Texas finds me in my easy chair with controller in hand at least 12 hours a day.....

 

I am glad to be part of this community and look forward to discussions and learning about mods and just learning in general.

 

Call me Pops....

Hey, Pops. Welcome aboard!!

 

A 65 year old gamer I am. Going on 66 in a couple of weeks. Retired Federal Police Officer. Born in the Year of the Rabbit according to the Calendar of the Twelve Beasts. Half-breed Irish Catholic and Native American. Got my serious start in gaming with the Avalon Hill board games. I was a console gamer from 1979 to 82 when I got my first computer the Apple ][+ and never looked back. Still have them though.

 

I hope that you enjoy your stay with us.

Hello, Pops!

 

Welcome to our little corner of the internet. Though I can not claim your advanced wisdom, I am a 45 year old female (yes we do exist!) So you will find all types here.

 

If you need anything don't hesitate to ask. Otherwise enjoy and again, welcome.

What I like to do is to find mods that might interest me and squirrel them away on my hard drive. Then when the game starts going stale I'll haul one out and play it for awhile. It keeps things fresh.

I am doing the same thing .... after I learned that you didn't have to delete the mods to change things ...the first month I downloaded probably 150 that I deleted instead o deactivating....all a learning curve ...
