I have happy news: as some of you know, I've been having an ongoing saga both with poor internet access and also an ancient, dying, knackered PC. But, the internet access problem is completely-and-totally-solved now, and also, I have a new PC on order.

And, it's a custom-build, so I'm quite sure it can run ME: A with no problems and - better yet! - assuming everything goes to plan, it should arrive a few days before the game is released! Hurray!

That new PC smell beats out a new car smell any day.

(This is a joke, pls do not smell your computer, that would be weird.)

LOL - scarily enough, Old!Machine's got enough dust in it that it probably should smell by now!

(Seriously, where does the dust even come from?! I clean this thing out so often, but it just fills up again.)

Allow me to share something that changed my life. Or at least my dust.

Unfortunately it's a tad pricey, but well worth it. Also if your case is too new to have a pre-made set, I believe they will custom make them for you.

Awesome news! I figured I hadn't seen you online lately because our timezones just weren't lining up, haha!

About six months ago, Origin randomly-deleted my entire F-list, and nothing I could do could get it back :(

Then it refused to let me re-add anyone ... I'm hoping I won't have this problem on the new machine.

(My 2016 was basically an insane dumpster fire of a year, and I'm *sooo* glad it's over. Fortunately 2017 is looking a lot better, at least so far.)

Well you're definitely still on my friends list, LOL. Origin has had many updates that broke stuff, have you tried again recently?
