Hello!

Edit: thanks for replying! ♥

It's 2024, what's the first game you played?

First thing I boot up was Rise of Rome. Might play some Golden Axe later on.

Sacred 2 Gold!

This game has been successfully reworked, patched, and perfected to perform as intended (as closely as possible) by the original developers at Ascaron Entertainment. Using the most recent Community Patch, The Trimmed Elite Textures, and the Purist Fixpack, the game is incredible!

Hello!

Mine was "Links LS". Yesterday, I was mingling again with the 1998 Edition available here on GOG.COM, but finally decided to give the previous version (1997 Edition) from a used retail copy a try.
"Links LS 1997 Edition" has a couple of 'shiny' features less than the '98 one (ingame mainly no additional animated objects, no weather/fog affecting the course and slower and visible image construction), but since it is still DOS-based it runs smoothly under DOSBox and so far I have not encountered any of the freezeing or crashing bugs that are repeatable in the '98 Edition only compatible for Windows!

The only hustle was, installing all the addon courses individually from within the DOS program. The syntax of the course registration list file is slightly different from the later '98 Edition, hence I could not simply copy and paste the files.
Furthermore, for those interested in it, the north american version runs fine without the need for the cd (except for tour, museeum and course videos) after a manual complete install. (According to the patch readme, the european version includes an additional copy protection.)

Now, I am curious, why GOG.COM did not got this DOS version of "Links LS"-maybe as a bonus or another product entry-for it seems much more stable and compatible.

Kind regards,

Mount & Blade for a bit solo, then co-oped the campaign in Saints Row. It being free from the Epic giveaway helped.

Edit: Oh boy! Did Saints Row being free help! It's so buggy, I'd have been angry or sad had I tried to buy this game even at a discount. Since it was free however, I'm having a blast due to how funny seeing all those bugs is!

Oddly enough...Saints Row 2....with the GOTR mod. I loved the game on 360, and heard the PC version was shyte. I booted it up without patching, and it still played flawlessly...except only in 1080p because 1440p was not available. Gotta give kudos to GOG (CD Projekt Black) because supposedly it was capped at 30 but mine was playing at 40. Gonna uncap later today, replace the audio, and that's that. The version here must be the better PC build/hack between STEAM and them.

I started the new year by reading or playing ONE. :-)

Homeworld 1 Classic from HWR Collection.

Torchlight 2, just a quick look at where I stopped playing in 2023 :)

Diablo 2: Resurrected.

First game on PC will be Dungeon Town tonight.

Nitro Family. Was in the mood for some FPS abandonware.

Titan Quest Anniversary Edition. Weird that THQ Nordic didn't put its DLC's for Winter sale.
