@kersploosh@sh.itjust.works What are your PC specs? Also how often do you clean up your registries?
It's been a long time for me. My peak PC gaming days were spent playing Warcraft II head-to-head with a friend over a modem. That was on a Macintosh Performa 550. I also had a ton of fun playing Myst and Flashback. I stuck to consoles after that.
Now the only gaming in my house is my kids playing Minecraft on a Dell OptiPlex 5040 that I saved from the dumpster at work because I'm a cheapskate. No dedicated GPU, 8GB RAM, but it gets the job done.

You are absolutely not a cheapskate for doing that. That's being resourceful. You save money that way and can put it towards other things that matter more. Nothing wrong with that. Why spend a few hundred dollars for a new laptop/desktop when you can just get one used that will run for another 2-4 years before it dies?
