    They lost me at the price. Then lost me again at the system requirements. It's good to at least see the resolution and fps mentioned on system requirements. I think we need some industry standard that says everyone has to provide system requirements for common setups: 1080-60, 1440-144...

    Old Games Kept Alive By Community?

    I played a retro game for 20+ years still run by the community. Most toxic people I've ever known. I don't even want to mention the game because they'll google it and find this post and harass me on here. The problem with these old community run games is nobody is policing them, it's fine if...
