There have been some efforts to mitigate this by adding warnings where appropriate. But that doesn't stop certain people from ignoring those warnings and typing "Yes, do as I say!" and bricking their install anyway.

See if a teacher did that for real today nobody there would laugh.
Not because it isn't funny but because most of them can't read and wouldn't get it! 🥁

Are you going to notice a decent performance improvement? Probably not unless your card or drivers are currently not working properly.

Will driver updates and configuration be a lot less of a hassle? Most likely yes!

odd, I never had an issue with WarChester sauce.

Love the new facial expressions! Perhaps she has been influenced a bit by merrivius' elf comic?

I couldn't stand it either, and I grew up with NES/SNES JRPGs and thought it would be right up my alley but for whatever reason the humor didn't reach me in the slightest and I couldn't be bothered to finish it.

More recently I tried Afterplace which also has a meta theme but the gameplay is more like a simplified Zelda and I really loved the writing.

Same here, I don't drink a lot of it compared to many but I still try to take a month long break at least once a year to 'reset' so it feels good again instead of needing it to just get through the day.

If your controller works in steam you can install RetroArch in steam and it should work there too.

I've had online friends I met in games who I've remained in contact with for many years well outside of the original game. Some of them I've met in real life as well. I've also run into many other 'friend groups' who hang out in their favorite chat app and jump around between games or other hobbies for whatever fits their mood. It seems common enough to me that it shouldn't be that rare or difficult for anyone willing to put some effort and trust towards it.

Absolutely, just as you can wander into the wrong bar and end up in a fight.

Competitive games will definitely bring out the worst in some people though, but there's plenty of co-operative and role-play games that can lead to good lasting friendships.

They certainly can be. Plenty of online games center around socializing. It might not be enough for those who need daily physical contact but it is far from an anti-social hobby.
