Regarding the HW section organization, I just HAVE to point out that I suggested exactly this some 15 or 20 years ago, because that was the way it was displayed on Sharky Extreme or wherever and I liked it. I got a resounding "nah" as an answer back then. Glad you finally came round, Blue! 
I am definitely waiting for the finished version, and I will try my best to avoid any spoilers until then. Subnautica was one of the best gaming experiences I've had, especially going in knowing nothing about it. If I could completely forget about any one game to play it again for the first time, Subnautica would be it. 
What do you mean? Wake Island has been in BFV since December...?
Having my PC on 24/7 is not something I do with the power costs we have here.
If you have another less power-hungry computer, can't you just download it on that one during a couple of nights (with a capped Steam download rate if needed) and then just move the game to your gaming computer? I downloaded and played all the Battlefield games while still on a 2 Mbit/s line... You just need a little patience and planning.

I started "late", Beta 6. A year or three later CS almost ruined my marriage, and after that I have only visited the game casually. I know a guy who still plays 1.6 incessantly, though.
Nowadays my own kids beat me easily. You simply can't compete with those teenage reflexes.

Thanks for all your detailed input. I will keep it in mind when the next Steam sale comes around!

Out of sincere curiosity, having never played any AC at all, which iteration do you consider the best? Is it possible to fully enjoy the later installations without having played the earlier ones?

Why is it ok (celebrated, even) to kill cows, pigs and chickens on an industrial scale but a no-no for dogs and cats? I have a hard time imagining cat meat being very tasty, but morally I don't see any difference at all. Some people just love bigotry, I guess.
Why not humans? You look pretty tasty.
I mean, we can draw the line anywhere, but if you're arguing meat is meat, then you're drawing a line, too.
You're being silly. I'm not arguing meat is meat. I am arguing animals are animals. The laws governing their life and death should not be arbitrarily based on cuteness factor or flimsy historical reasons.

Although, I'm a little hesitant over their concept of completely removing random deviation for bullets... surely that can't mean that guns will be laser accurate? (With of course recoil, bullet drop and travel time, but still). Are they planning on having recoil make the cross-hairs jump around, but the bullets will still be 100% accurate to that moving cross-hair?
I was also thinking about that. It's a nice idea to have the gun fire where it is pointed, but at the same time that means the first shot is always on perfectly on target if you have the time to aim. My guess is maybe your crosshair/barrel is not still but always moving slightly to simulate breathing/involuntary hand movements. Inaccurate guns may move more, or perhaps zoom in much less in ADS. We'll have to wait and see I guess, but I think it is cool that they experiment a bit and not just copy-paste from earlier iterations.

Exactly my thoughts. A dark, secret lovecraftian dick? Let's go find it!

Never played it, but it sure has some exceedingly positive reviews on Steam. Might be worth checking out.

I enjoyed Dying Light a lot, but when I had finished the main + DLC stories I felt it was just about enough and I could uninstall feeling satisfied. Bought on sale, so lots of value for money.
I bought BF1 + premium during the Christmas sale. I've played most BF games since the start of the series, but time constraints made me wait with BF1. It is very good, though. Polished and with smart mechanics. Still learning the maps and dying all the time, but having fun.
The article is also further confirmation of the idea that the moon is made of cheese.

I'll buy this on sale next year or so. For Bethesda games, it usually takes that long for the good overhaul mods to become mature.
I sure hope so. Mowing down a bunch of journalists, first responders and kids with my Apache was the best!
Seriously, though. The morality dilemma in military sims can be a problem. At least for me, but I've always had a hard time trying to play the bad guy.

I didn't get the feel of underwater at all from this video. Big ships spinning around after a hit is something that happens in the air, not in a liquid. Broke the immersion for me, but maybe I'm over-analyzing things.
As long as I can face death itself in the form of 99 Berserkers, 99 Berserkers, 99 Berserkers and 99 Berserkers, I'm in!

I still think Aureal A3D was the best HRTF spatial sound experience there was. 17 years ago, no less. Maybe there's some good reason why something similar cannot be done in modern games. Does anyone know if AMD TrueAudio is as good (I never tried it)?
