If I remember correctly, it was so that when my younger brother went to study in London, he left some of his PC-games at our parents' place. Later on I collected some of those games. Among them was a title called Fallout. This happened during those years I labelled as "misadventures" =) Anyhow, I remember spending several winter nights playing Fallout, eventually finishing the story. And after that there are several years when I didn't play that much computer games.

Now, when I picked up Wasteland II, it immediately made me think of Fallout I. (And the name Brian Fargo rung some bells in the chambers of my vague memories...). Indeed, Wasteland was first released in 1987 and kind of a started the genre =) Now, thinking in hindsight, I really don't know why I never played Wasteland in the 1980's - as I do remember playing some other titles designed by Brian Fargo.

Oh well, but back to 2015 =) I'd guess I'm not going to develop a habit of playing computer games. There's always so many things to do, and I prefer coding over gaming. I like the tactical survival-loitering adventure game Herwood, because it doesn't seem to be so time-consuming and massive as Wasteland II. And it feels more humorous, sillier and funnier than Corto Maltese -game. So, yeah - Herwood will keep me busy when I feel like gaming =)

Ps. The term "college" means different things in different countries. I assume you are talking about The University, instead of some intermediary school what we take before applying to the university. Ah, well, I went to the University because studying was better than being unemployed, and I was interested in the subjects I studied. I always knew that those studies won't bring me a job, so I studied just because of my inner desire to seek to better understand these strange things called Humanity, Existence, Life, Society, Ethics, Science, Knowledge etc =)
