    I’m still on dual 1080p monitors and a machine that’s more than a decade old and was mid-tier at best when brand new. I’ve only upgraded the GPU and doubled the RAM, yet it still runs basically everything at an acceptable framerate. Hearing that would boggle the mind of my younger self, who struggled for days to get Neverwinter Nights (the Bioware one, not AOL - you know you’re old when you feel the need to specify) to run at more than four seconds per frame in outdoor areas on a fairly new machine.

      I only played it years later on Linux. Smooth as butter. 😎
      I was not aware there was an SSI game with the same name, I suppose that’s what you meant by AOL?

          I never played an SSI game, the first RPG game I played was Might and Magic Clouds of Xeen. Which I found to be an absolutely amazing game.
          I live in Europe (Denmark) I don’t think AOL was ever a thing here, we did have Compuserve for a few years until Internet made it irrelevant.
