Interesting...

However, I would like to reintroduce the group to the concept of
"[snip]." We all have access to Spalls' full post. Unless you are
specifically responding to a part of it, in-line, it's gentle and kind to
[snip] stuff that everyone has access to in the first place.

Sorry, not sorry, to be netiquette nanny, but leaving 253 lines of Spalls
untouched to reply with 3 is a little beyond. Used to be we did this to
conserve server space and extend retention, but it also averts repetitive
strain injuries from rolling the mouse wheel. I have arthritis.

I'd almost rather people top-post...

Now on with the business at hand!

I have been playing Zelda: BOTW and Batman: Arkham Asylum on the Switch.
Asylum especially is a joy on your couch with a controller, rather than
at your desk with KBM. I also got Arkham City and another Arkham game,
either Knight or Origins, which I haven't played on PC much at all! $25
total.

I am playing Snood, Talos Principle II's DLC, "Road to Elysium," and
Fallout: London on the PC. A little online BG3 with a friend too. We just
murdered Minthara last session.

I finally got FO: London to stop crashing. Something to do with FO4
godrays implementation and RTX cards. Who knew? More importantly, since
Nvidia hard codes specific game optimizations into their drivers, why
can't it be fixed?

Ah well. The game is almost a decade old. That's why. It probably crept
in with the first 2080 driver unbidden and refused to leave the house.
