OMG...

So...

I backed in 2014, and thought my computer at the time wouldn't be up to playing the game when it launched in a couple of years time (lol.) So I upgraded to a pretty kickass rig in 2014... 4790K, 16Gb DDR3, Good GPU etc etc etc... but 10 years later and the computer just wouldn't run SC for shit, 16Gig of ram just wouldnt run the game, noone sells DDR3 anymore and couldn't really afford a complete overhaul.

Just got backpaid for a promotion from a few months ago and went to a Ryzen 5, DDR5 etc etc and I can finally play the game again.

What a crazy journey.

Congrats, I'm waiting down the machine I made in 2019 out of parts from 2014 to run out of puff before I have to start thinking about replacement... It's getting there, I just hope SC/S42 will run on Linux if it's still up to the task when they stop support of Win10...

Welcome back to the Verse! The game has progressed a bit since you started your break according to your initial post of this thread. You've arrived at a great time, things have been getting quite exciting.
