I have spent probably hundreds of hours in Skyrim at this point, but I would say the most fun playthrough I did was actually on the Nintendo Switch. I think that I enjoyed it because I didn’t stop every hour to install a bunch more mods, since that wasn’t an option (and I guess having it anywhere was nice too…).
If you want a bit of a smoother experience, I would recommend SkiUI on PC and Alternate Start, but I would also suggest trying it vanilla too as it can be a bit prickly to get SKSE (requirement for SkyUI) set up if you’ve never done it before.
I don’t recommend doing what I did and installing 200 mods, finally getting it all working and then not actually going back to the game. Do we really need 12 million K textures?
Deus Ex, Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines, and Cyberpunk 2077. Like you said, they are games I like to get lost in, just walk/drive around in, soak in the ambience. I like to pretend I’m there; it’s a great escape, like you said, comforting.
Sometimes the exclamation mark is part of the link and it works, and sometimes it’s there but not part of the link, and my phone thinks the rest is an email address.
Is there a guide anywhere to how to do links properly? TIA.
EDIT - yeah, so in my example above, the exclamation mark is not being treated as part of the link for some reason?
I’m still using Windows 10 on my personal computer. Oh I’ll probably have to upgrade someday, some game or other program will come out with exclusivity of some kind and I’ll eventually install Windows 11. But for the most part, I don’t want to fuck with it, everything works and I really just don’t want the hassle.
Running Linux Mint on an old laptop, mostly because it’s too old to decently run Windows 10. Don’t use it for much, mostly troubleshooting things.
At work the laptops are Windows 10 and I don’t think there’s a push to update. Of course all the servers are Redhat Enterprise Linux, and that’s where the majority of my work takes place.
Try not to have an overly rosy retrospection about this. There were plenty of crappy, cash-grabby games in decades past. We just don’t remember them because they were crappy, cash-grabby, and not worth remembering. They hadn’t invented microtransactions yet, but that’s just one more flavor of crappiness.
We’ve been playing Camel Up a lot. It’s nice because there is some skill and a good amount of luck involved, so no matter your board game experience, you have a shot at winning.
Agricola is my favorite but it is pretty complex so we don’t play much.
It’s more closely related to the initial intentions of the internet than most other social platforms. Ideally it could get things going back in the right direction again iif nothing else!
