Nice Dart, good to hear you are doing good during the pandemic. Very nice PC's and monitor as well.
Here in Western Australia, we're very lucky. We have been basically back open for close to 2 months I think because we only had about 600 infections in the entire state. Inter-state travel is closed, so all those plague-infested Melbournians can't come here.
I have kept my IT job as well, however our boss is using the pandemic and looming recession as an excuse to cut hours back to 4 days per week forcing us to use our vacation time, despite revenue being up 23% from last year. Bit of a dick move if you ask me.
Ameerah and I play games as a lifestyle as well, at least if you can call it that when it's only for an hour per day due to the kids and work. Right now we're playing Borderlands 3 and it's a blast.
We tried Ark survival evolved because it was free on the Epic store but due to having so little time to play, we didn't like when you die and have to run back to get your stuff, sometimes very far away, and the dino who killed you is still standing right there, preventing you from getting your stuff again. It just took too long to recover from that and felt like a waste of our available hour of play.
That said if you're not on Epic, you should get on it just for the free games every 2 weeks. So far I've gotten Ark, Civilization VI, GTA V, Assassin's Creed Syndicate, Darksiders 2, Just Cause 4, Metro 2033 and so many more for free. The platform sucks compared to Steam, but I'll take free games thanks.
I've sent a friend request, but being in AU might make it difficult to play a the same time.
