I see you post a lot!

Love seeing the posts but it always seemed to me you are running stuff on a ancient PC.

So I checked your PC info, and doesn't seem that ancient at all!

What is up with that monitor! I am very curious!

That looks pretty old. Is that the best monitor you got? Or do you like the retro vibe it gives? :D

Good thing you mentioned google, as I'd never believe that is your actual monitor. Hell needs to freeze over before I see you using Win10 ;)

Windows :sick: only have win 8.1 (10 is worst thing created by M$ until now in my opinion)

But only use windows for specific things, very rare most time stay on linux

Trials of Mana (demo):
It needs mf-install to show videos, runs great with it. Too anime and cliche, but the gameplay is enjoyable.

Ahh, after looking up the monitor I see it now. A actual CRT.

Digital Foundry did a tech review of sort about CRT more recently and how, even at lower resolutions, the graphics looked better then on the flat-screens we have today and also better response times and such.

Pretty interesting to see that those old monitors are still the best for gaming and the lower resolution is not noticeable and therefore even more performance out of your graphics card.

Anyway, back to screenshots!

Good old WoW - Classic.

Need for Speed: Undercover (modded FOV, Xbox Gamepad support with correct symbols) :)

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat

... as some kind of warm-up for the upcoming Metro Exodus port :)

Far Cry 5 got a free weekend on Uplay.
My controller doesn't work there, and there are other issues, but in general it runs fine.

The release of Metro Exodus on GOG was unexpected this week, a happy surprise.

Both setups running it at Ultra settings:

Main system


Runs just as great on 2nd system with RX 5500 XT and 4th Gen i5-4590

TERA ^_^

Are you also hyped for the remake?

Quoting: crt0megaAre you also hyped for the remake?

Yes of course :D

Trying out Blades of Time (2012) which recently released on GOG.com

Started Dreamfall - The Longest Journey been a long time since I finished Dreamfall Chapters so my memory with the story is a bit rusty.

Destory All Humans! - from GoG. Its quite fun i have to admit. It has "stealth", it has lots of action with the alien and its saucer to destroy buildings. Some funny and super generic 50s/60s storyline as well.



Some Warhammer Online (Return of Reckoning) also
