I have been playing video games for a very long time. Growing up I had an original Atari 2600, and a hand me down CPM computer that played text computer games. I'm sure that gives you an idea of how ancient and decerped I am.
I enjoy playing lots of different types of games, but I'm not great at a lot of them. I would consider myself a middle of the road gamer. I decided to give TH-cam a try, and upload game play videos.
I also enjoy different types of crafting not related to video games. Crochet, knitting, woodworking, woodcarving, playing guitar and bass. I suspect that those types of things might eventually make their way onto this channel as well.

Farming Simulator 25 Thoughts and Impressions
My thoughts and impressions after playing Farm Sim 25 for about 14 hrs. I like it overall. I don't think it's a game for everyone though.

SnowRunner HardMode #31 Michigan - Island Lake - Power Lines
มุมมอง 484 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
Playing SnowRunner in Hard Mode. I took the Twinsteer back to the Garage and got new tires for it (basically the only upgrade available at this point). I ended up doing 2 things this time around. The Huntsman And The Car was on the way to doing Power Lines. The mud. The mud. The mud. Island Lake has so much mud. Finished: The Huntsman And The Car Power Lines
SnowRunner HardMode #30 Michigan - Island Lake - No Country For Old Truck

Playing SnowRunner in Hard Mode. I was WAY to ambitious for Island Lake mud. I wanted to get a few things done and was only able to get one thing done. It can be so slow going with all that deep mud. Which means we also now have the Twinsteer. Finished: No Country For Old Truck

Glad you enjoy it. Not for me though
Are the JAT tyres worth it? I keep umming and arhing
Everything I have read say they are slightly better. I bought them so I could use them in the series. Knowing I could buy them right away and not have to use an intermediate tire until I leveled up. Just giving me a little bit of an easier time early on.
Yours and Old Noob Gamer videos dropped at the same time. Decisions, decisions.
I saw that as well. It's like we talked ahead of time. 😂
I always complete this task because OCD is a thing, but I rarely do anything with it other than sell it. good job with the swamp...
I have used it for a few things in past games. I'm going to try and use it for the larger cargo this time around. The only downside is it can be tippy on hilly corners, which there are some on this map.
The mud is a pain. Is a shame you cant get proper muddies on alot of US trucks
I guess they couldn't make it too easy lol.
I just bought snow runner. It's heaps of fun. I'm defs not doing it on hard mode. Love your videos though ❤
Thank you! It's a great game overall. Enjoy the ride and if you want any help / advice ask and I'll try my best.
I'm watching this while on a Navy field exercise
Thank you for watching and your service.
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
That's pretty much sums everything up.
Nice Vid
Thank you.

Unfortunately the GMC awd upgrade isnt in Michigan
Yeah I keep checking though ... like that's going to magically be there.
2 episodes in 2 days? Anyone would think you're on holiday.
Guilty. Enjoying some time off work with very little drama around me. It's really nice.
It's a lot further than you think at the start, isn't it
It really is. I misjudged how long doing all that would take me.
I find Island Lake the most frustrating just because it's so slow to get around. Oh. And Happy Christmas.
Happy Christmas. Out of the 4 maps Island Lake is the lowest on my list. I'm probably making this even harder for myself due to my truck picks. I keep using the GMC to haul trailers. That's still my plan going into Island lake as well. I guess we will see how far I get with it.
I've never used the GMC because of no AWD and the WWS because no diff lock. But they seem ok as long as the mud isn't too deep and sticky. you need to complete another mission to unlock the other mission
You are right. If the mud gets too deep or too much both those trucks have issues. It does surprise me what they can handle. I totally missed that other requirement for that mission. Kind of thought I was loosing my mind. Well that still might be the case. Lol.
I would have just towed the trailer.
@@making_randoms yeah. That might have been the better option. Then I wouldn't have had to remove the crane.
@anonparrot although if you did that would it have delivered correctly?
@@making_randoms I think that's true for cargo on a trailer. You can't turn in cargo that's not attached to a truck. I think things like maintenance, fuel and other trailers just need to be in the turn in area. I think I have done that in the past. I might test that at some point.
Snowrunner is an okayish logistics sim, but it's easily the worst driving sim on the market. Even meme games like Long Drive and Slaverian Trucker offer a more realistic driving experience.
That's the great thing about games. You can play what you like. I tried The Long Drive a while ago and it wasn't for me me. Never heard of the other game. I really enjoy playing SnowRunner. Thanks for watching and remember be kind to yourself and others.
I really didn't understand how the Holiday deliveries worked. You can take cargo back, you have to view the jobs right away and then take a job from the Winter Wonderland back to the normal map. I can't believe I did try that before. Just tried it in my other profile. Now I know I guess.
Not my gig but nice intro. Why do the villagers not get pissed off when you nick their stuff?
That's a good question. Wish I knew the answer. They just don't care. They can also have jobs and you can trade with them to get mostly useful stuff. I'll do that eventually as well. I have such a wide range of games I like to play.
nice episode. playing normal mode i didnt think about saving the fuel.
I don't ever think about saving fuel in normal mode either. I'm pretty sure any fuel trailer that needs to be turned in will be fine as long as it has 10% fuel left. I should really test that out one of these days.
Nice job. I cheese the system all the time. It's not a cheat, it's an exploit 😂
Just finished Michagan on Hard. Thinking of doing Alaska next. The main reason is little to no logging. I hate logging missions.
@oldnoobgamer72 I dont really care for the logging missions either. However I'm a completiest and I don't feel right just leaving them not done. Serious personal flaw lol. I'm thinking of interspersing some logging along the way just to get them done. Just so they aren't the last things left.
@@anonparrot Oh I do them. I just don't enjoy them. 😀
I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not sure. 😅
@@making_randoms I resemble that remark. 😆
I was thinking I would load the beams onto the trucks and ditch the trailer, then you did exactly that.
I remember going the other way across the top bit, fully loaded, on AT's. It was painfully slow and tedious.
I'm sure the last time I did that I was using the AT's. I totally forgot how bad that area can get. At least I got out and didn't completely tip over the Fleetstar.
My main account is Old Noob Gamer btw
I thought that might be the case after the SnowRunner comment. I enjoy your videos. It was honestly surprised anyone was even watching lol. I looked down at my cheap laptop and saw someone was watching. Thanks for joining and watching.
@anonparrot no worries. Have a good day at work
the shortcut I find easier to reverse up and down if you dont have a trailer attached. Also have you considered mapping the engine start/stop to an unused controller button to forget/ignore. 😉
I haven't considered mapping start/stop to something on my controller. I'll have to see what I have mapped and try that out. I get very stuck in my habits lol. I also almost never use that shortcut. I remember when I first played this game I rolled the truck and lost the supplies when I tried to drive down it lol. I figured now was a good time to try it again. I fully expected to roll over.
How does the quarry produce food? Rock cakes maybe?
I didn't catch that when I read the text out. They do say ... "start shipping out food in no time." Rock cakes. Has to be.
That hill was a bit urgent...
In all the times I have re-played Michigan I have never gone up or down that hill. I don't think I'll attempt it again.
The swamp summarises this game. A long slog and grind, but with a sense of accomplishment at the end. Well played
It really does.
Hiya. Just returned the subscribe, as you sound very similar to myself. Of a certain age, average gamer, and a crafter as well. Just remember 'Growing old is compulsory, growing up is optional' 👋
That was my exact same thought when I found your channel as well. I have really been enjoying your content as well. We seem to enjoy very similar games. I also play ets2 and ats. Just haven't decided if I'm going to put them on here or not.
@@anonparrot I do wonder if I should only concentrate on one game, but then I would get bored of it and I don't want it to be a chore. I'm a game whore and spread it about a bit.
You and me both.
always enjoy seeing other people's forts <3
I do as well. This one is really kind of a mess. Kind of like all my other forts. I really need to consolidate some things.
I love this game. I have snowrunner and still go back to mudrunner lol
Never played mudrunner. Spent a ton of time playing spintires. I do enjoy snowrunner a lot.
Chevy, like a rock 🪨
I am surprised how useful the Chevy can be sometimes.
Yeah it's weird I run over a little rocks or you know rocks that are not real big and it still causes damage.. is what it is one of the best off-road simulation games ever
So right on. It is kind of funny how much damage you can get from those small things. It's a game I enjoy so much.
@@anonparrot p.c or what console? I use mods strictly for the rigs that have the 60 series Detroits or peterbuilts and the occasional cab over
Can't forget the scouts first Gen Cummins
I play on PC. I have tried a few mods, and I find it fun for a while. Overall mods just aren't for me though.
@@anonparrot that's cool man.. 🤘🏽. Keep on truckin
What tires are those
Those are 38" JAT MS I. Taking every advantage I can get in Hard Mode.
Awesome video
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I hate the way the engine shuts off when you tilt sideways or are climbing almost vertically, it should stay running but do damage.
Totally agree with you.
Dude Its A Stall
@Payson_Aviation I have spent the last 15 years off roading in real life and engines don't stall at 60 degrees unless they are carbureted. Fuel injection will run upside down till they blow up. Another dumb thing the game does is does my winch stall when I'm on my side too? Cause that also stops working. What about my battery feeding the winch? That stall too? Lol it's just dumb stuff I'm picking on but it's kinda game breaking.
