Connecting Train Station on My Wedding Day - *Final Train Leaving the Station* [Lvl 1]

So, today is my wedding day. At least, it's supposed to have been. The reasons are obvious - due to the COVID-19 outbreak, there are restrictions on large gatherings around the country (and even the world). While some restrictions were lifted, the hard lockdown, which only lifted a few weeks ago, meant that no planning could be done prior. Thankfully, the venue were really awesome in allowing to reschedule to a future date of our choosing, which will most likely take place in early 2021.

This may turn into a fairly long catch-up, so if you're not interested, you're welcome to skip to the end where the train is departing from.

There has, however, been some positives during this time. Both myself and fiancé were able to work from home during the lockdown, while also still receiving our full pay. She's gone back to work as of last month, while I'm most likely to continue working from home for the remainder of the year because of underlying conditions from my youth that may put me at higher risk. Prior to the lockdown we were saving for multiple projects, including the wedding and buying a house, which is also not likely to happen until later in the year.

The biggest upside for us is that we've been able to save over and above our normal amount each month, so we've been trying to do our best to help the community. In the first week of the hard lockdown, my work laptop crashed. Thankfully, I had the Acer Predator Triton 900 with me for review, which I could work from. However, the PR collected the unit in May, so I ended up having to use my PC, which is connected to our living room TV for work - after a few days of this my fiancé got annoyed and so we decided to buy a laptop. Long story short, we ended up buying a decent ASUS G15 Strix gaming laptop - mostly thanks to the extra money saved working from home. What's interesting about this is that I bought a gaming PC in November last year. Before that, I didn't upgrade my previous CPU and GPU for over 9 years.

Initially, I wasn't planning on doing much today, as we were supposed to have our own mini-celebration for the day, but, as it turns out, my fiancé got very sick and has been unable to do much for the past day and remains in bed. This actually gave me a bit of time to myself, so I decided to create a train. I really wanted to create something epic, but I didn't realise the effort it would take to do so. Having spent 3 hours gathering all the games and links, trying to make sure they're all in working condition, it took me another hour to create the train, which is only a quarter of the collection. So, we now have 5 separate trains, but they'll be departing at different schedules. I hope you guys do enjoy it.

I know it's been a difficult time for many, and don't write the above to show-boat. I just wanted to share my change of fortune over a few years ago when I wrote on here, heavy in debt and having to cut quite a bit of activity - also why I wasn't able to upgrade any of my tech for years. We'll continue to give back to the organisations in our local area to assist while we're all still dealing with aspects of the COVID-19 effects.

TL;DR - Today was supposed to be my wedding day, but due to COVID-19 restrictions, it's to be moved to 2021.

As always, a few disclaimers:

1. As stated previously, there will be multiple trains, so keep an eye out for those.
2. If there are any used keys, keys no longer valid, etc. they, unfortunately, won't be replaced. My apologies for that.
3. If there are any issues within the train (broken tracks, etc.), please just drop a message in the comments.

I didn't really wanna add this, but ... since the last time I did a train, I was banned for 3 days for "begging" on SG. Honestly, I wasn't really. But, there no indication to the moderators that it was a joke, and rules are rules. Fair enough. It's worth noting, for perspective, that I'm moving towards 2,000 games in my Steam library, so I don't really need to be begging for games. But, like I said rules are rules. What I didn't appreciate, however, was some SG users taking the opportunity to go to my Steam page and leave some obscenities because of it. I was considering just closing my account, not wanting have to deal with any of it again. At the same time, I've been part of this community for 7 years now, I've interacted with various people and continue to do so and don't think their stupidity should impact that.
