@nprofile1q... Welcome to RG! Sorry to hear about the closure of your old instance but it's good to have you here!

@nprofile1q... Understandable, especially since the sequel is more integrated with the EA launcher 🤢 But it's still worth a play if you get the chance! The open world design is great for the freedom and for side activities to let you practice your parkour.

@nprofile1q... It's not perfect but I really enjoyed it. I'd say Dishonored was a better successor to the classics, but if you view it as its own game rather than in light of the first three games, it's not too bad.

The area transitions are definitely annoying, I agree. As for opening/closing things, I think that was done to really 'sell' the immersion. I still remember them bragging about so much detail you could see Garrett's thumb prints :guilded_lul:

@nprofile1q... Have you ever played the sequel? I haven't finished it but it feels like a superior game overall.

@nprofile1q... It's always something :rp_depre: But at least, once you fix the issues, it will truly feel like a home since you've put so much effort into making it one!

@Nostalgia I know this account can't respond but it also won't let me quote it, so I'll just say it here... for me, it was RuneScape. I've spent over 6000 hours of my life in that one, most of which was during my late childhood and into my teenage years. I practically lived and breathed Gielinor back in the day.

@nprofile1q... Before I had a dedicated gaming PC, I used to play Skyrim on an old laptop with ~20 FPS, so low that the trees wouldn't animate in the breeze anymore. I beat it that way... it wasn't pleasant, but my motivation to play that game outweighed my frustration with framerate :guilded_lol:

@nprofile1q... Nothing irritates me quite like the incompetence of major ISPs :guts:

@nprofile1q... I only watch YT through Freetube or Brave on PC, Grayjay on mobile, so I haven't encountered this.
