So I have a tech question that I feel stupid asking, but as gamers I’m hoping you guys may know. You know how each game wants to download it’s own Dirext X, and some of the older games won’t run with newer DirextXs? Can you have multiple Direct Xs installed, or will one overwrite the other, so when I want to play a new game or an old game, I’ll always have to be downloading the correct one…?

Multiple versions of Direct X can co-exist without any problem. That’s how Microsoft designed it.

I got a sweet dual citizenship thing going on. It feels weird how I don’t post on here anywhere near as much I used to. I should probably rectify that! Smile

Yes you should. It’s much more fun here than on FaceBook!

You’ll be pleased to know that I still find the time to dedicate towards developing a relatively eclectic and broad taste in music, y’all:

It’d seem appropriate to up my here-time, given that I’m going to undertake a ‘Grim Fandango’ (shiny new version!) replay soon… other than that, my adventure (or adventure-esque) game activities primarily involve waiting for the next ‘Kentucky Route Zero’ with baited breath.

That is one hell of a work of art.

Yay, Ham-Ham!

And what a beautiful piece of music that is Smile

And Tsa is right! Facebook is for schmucks! Schmucks, I tell you! You don’t want to be a schmuck, do you?

Wow Exploding Kittens on Kickstarter made $8,782,571 dollars when all they were asking for was $10,000. Cats sell stuff big time.

Yeah, as I recall, it went to 100 % funded in less than 20 mins and 1000 % funded in an hour.

Also, looks like a very fun card game Smile

I just played through the “5 Days a Stranger” games (“7 Days a Skeptic” was my favorite). I really loved the atmosphere. I don’t usually let games affect me…but last night I really did have a dream about the Tall Man. 0.0 lol

Haha I’m playing Under a Killing Moon and I dream about Tex sometimes. Not that I’m gay but the ladies in that game don’t appeal much to me Wink

I don’t think I’ve ever dreamed about an Adventure Game character - I must need to play more of them! Wink Glad I haven’t dreamed about the tall man though!

I do love the “x days a y” series although I know they don’t get a lot of love round here.

My favorite was the first one. It was the least horror-y of them Tongue

Ah, those were the good old days. A lot of great stuff with AGS back then. Haven’t played an AGS game in ages, now…
