I'm genuinely this desperate. I'm a working dad going to college, I just started double classes, and I've just spent all of my free time for the last 4 days trying to figure out how to get modded Skyrim to run on my computer. I'm not good at this, nothing I do works, and all I want is to relax and do something fun for myself.

I'll PayPal the money, it's not much but it's literally twice what I paid for Skyrim itself. I'm just so desperate to have something comfortable and newish.

Getting paid to access someone's computer by its owner... Interesting 🤔

I have no idea of how it o do it, but OP please be careful on who you let in your system. Kind strangers, be careful who's computer you go into

As foolish as this request is, I really hope it makes a point to my desperation. Videogames are my self care and this has been eating up every minute of destress time I have for a solid week now. I'm literally too broken by my repeated failures to really mind the risk at this point.
