QUOTE(Acadian @ Sep 27 2021, 01:28 AM) ![*](style_images/tower/post_snapback.gif) Diablo II Resurrected (PC) was just released Sep 23. I have many fond memories of a blond bowgirl, ponytail bouncing along behind her. Amazon class with bow, affectionately called a 'bowazon'.
Planning on getting this for the Switch...

I bought Oblivion and Two Worlds 2 from GOG, and they were indeed completely unbound. But they were older games, so I wasn't sure if Horizon would be the same.
Mind you though, GOG now has a new tool called Galaxy, which is very much like Steam - it wants you to be online. I think you still don't need to be online to play the game, but they want to keep tabs on you. However, you can choose to buy the game in the old-fashioned way and not through Galaxy, then it just plops it on your hard drive and that's that.

QUOTE(Kane @ Sep 30 2021, 12:42 PM) ![*](style_images/tower/post_snapback.gif) You definitely don't need Galaxy unless you are shopping, downloading, or updating the game. I bought Stardew Valley through GOG, and I never run Galaxy. I just launch the game right from my desktop.
Oh, so you're saying I didn't have to re-download everything... ![wink.gif](style_emoticons/sinders/wink.gif) Well, never mind.

It's a lot of fun! Here is the description from the wiki: QUOTE Stardew Valley is an open-ended country-life RPG! You’ve inherited your grandfather’s old farm plot in Stardew Valley. Armed with hand-me-down tools and a few coins, you set out to begin your new life. Can you learn to live off the land and turn these overgrown fields into a thriving home? It won’t be easy. Ever since Joja Corporation came to town, the old ways of life have all but disappeared. The community center, once the town’s most vibrant hub of activity, now lies in shambles. But the valley seems full of opportunity. With a little dedication, you might just be the one to restore Stardew Valley to greatness! https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Stardew_Valley_Wiki

The writing in the game is great, too. Characters have real issues that you can help them through and none of it feels silly or over the top. Exploring the mines is always fun, and the challenge of the Skull Cavern takes serious dedication. And yeah, mods help adjust it to your taste even though it's just as enjoyable without them. I play it on the Switch a lot and it's just as fun as the modded PC version. Here is one of my farms from a while back. It was one of my longest running farms at around year 4, I think. There has since been more updates with new content not reflected there. This post has been edited by Kane: Sep 30 2021, 05:35 PM
