Can't we all just accept that people who willingly pay very high prices for stuff are also part of the problem? Maybe this is a region specific anecdote but when I got into retro (~12 years ago now) it was impossible to find 486 era stuff - the first motherboard I got my hands on was an import from …

The gaming chairs I've tried weren't very comfortable and don't look great IMO. I bought one of these recently - no help to you because I think this are AU only but just to give you an idea: https://backcare.com.au/therapod-x-hr I got the headrest and arms - the arms I've since taken off and the …

Been messing around with The Outer Worlds again and had the same experience as the first time around - looks great, good writing and characters, interesting-ish setting, fun and refined mechanics, but it just lacks whatever makes an RPG an RPG. It's all style and no substance... or something. I …

@Shadow of Mordor - I bought that on release for some reason and took ~ 1 day to download, played it for ~ 1 hour before deciding it wasn't for me. Regrets. @Outward - I was in love with this game for weeks! Points taken, it's slow, etc, but I found the wandering around and the environment and the …
