Mostly tried to stick to a single release per platform for the earlier games. I’m sure I’ve missed some.

Newer games…I know the AC and Fallout titles aren’t most people’s favorites, but I love those worlds. Games are all about comfort for me.

Ohhh shit someone else who has visited Rubi-Ka? Loved that game when I was younger
I miss it so much. Last time I tried to fire it up again, it just wouldn’t even run under Windows. And I just haven’t ever found something that hits the same.
I had no issues running it a couple years ago…though it was a pretty disappointing. Very very dated and plain. I couldn’t remember how to get anywhere either and for a game so reliant on portalling around, it was rough
