I agree with all your points.

I think that is one reason why Valve has remained dominant in this space for over 20 years.

Damn Elizabeth & Abraham (U7 reference).

You right though and it ruined Ultima 30+ years ago now.

I like gog the site not the gog galaxy app. I always have to look too hard to start a game up.

That’s a big part of it, plus these huge companies bought all the little developers. $ over quality.

I love GOG but yeah, Galaxy is awful. It’s not obvious how to actually start a game for one. That seems like the most important feature!

Two of my best friends played it a bit and said it was “good.” They didn’t provide details but said it was better than 3 (I f’ing hated that game, so generic and no strategy required).

I’m having a great time playing “The Planet Crafter” over the last month, my favorite game I’ve played this year.

Yes exactly! You can quickly tell it was just “the games that cost the most to make/hype/etc.”

I have a Samsung Odyessy+ and it works…ok. I’m on Win 10 still, so should still work for a few more years I reckon. 90% of the time I just use BigSceen for movies. Not a huge loss for me, plus the thing is like 4 years old!

Here I am using the mouse with my left-hand but WASD. I should try the arrow keys again!

My 1060 would probably burst into flames at 640x480 then.

I’ll definitely check this out. There was already a Doom 2 port of it, very good too.
