the integration of battle.net and the seemingly multiplayer-oriented design has always led me just looking at guides and lists of gear and go "so I guess those exist in the game then?"

I installed Myst last week. I thought maybe I could make some sense out of those random puzzles 20-odd years after I last played the game, but I can't get the transition effect to work, and that's a real bummer, as it ruins the entire experience for me. So I gave it up for now and opted for Titanic: …
