I played WoW for sixteen years. Finally had enough of the subscription grind, the associated FOMO, and the constant resetting of all gear progression with each expansion. Took a year off of MMOs and then picked up GW2.

BTW, GW2 doesn't have weekly downtime like WoW does.

If you don't have some form of MFA setup, add that, too.

What if the only way to turn them is a repeat of 1939-1945?

Back in my teens, a Seventh Day Adventist said that to me. I got the better deal in life.

“Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed.

That word is "Nazi." Nobody cares about their motives anymore.

They joined what they joined. They lent their support and their moral approval. And, in so doing, they bound themselves to everything that came after. Who cares any more what particular knot they used in the binding?”

I use it via Lutris, and it's my go-to way to play GW2.

I did replace my aging Nvidia card (from 2014) with an AMD RX 6000-series unit to get proper DX11 support through Vulkan.

You can just forego having the entries you'd get from Xitter.

If you work in the US, NDAs tied to severance are generally illegal.

Even so, I gave my last employer the benefit of silence for the amount of time my severance would have covered in regular salary. That time is now past.

A Model I was the first computer I owned. I miss it, but don't know that I'd actually use it if I still had it.

It runs about as well as it does under Windows. I'm not currently interested in paying another subscription - feels like too much pressure and the amount I spent on WoW over the years is distressing.

I've been playing GW2 since December and it also runs well with Wine.

My first computer had 4KB of RAM.

It's really good for WoW and GW2.
