Maybe if the Beaver would stop gnawing on the new potato during Pac Man LARP breaks, they could make some progress.

Cautiously optimistic since it is a 4h increment this time.

But that might be because I have been genuinely excited to finish Ravenloft so I’m hoping I can play tonight.

The business is beholden to the consumer, not the other way around.

Let's go slowly.  I have thousands upon thousands of choices of entertainment and companies I can give my money to. 

SSG are expected to provide me with enjoyment and a good deal if they want my money.  If they don't, I go somewhere else.

^This

SSG doesn't owe me anything for the downtime.

By the same reasoning, I don't owe my wife anything when I get tied up at work late on the night she invited her sister over for dinner. It wasn't my fault I got stuck, and there wasn't anything I could do about it. I still stop and buy flowers, because "a heartfelt apology" is just words, and a little gift goes a long way. The small personal cost in time, effort, and money proves I value the hour or two of inconvenience and embarrassment she felt.

Similarly, SSG doesn't owe me anything and I won't rage quit if nothing is what I get. But I'll certainly notice, and I'll be a bit frosty for a while.

The game/player relationship has much in common with human relationships, and SSG has a long history of saying "you're not that important to me". It adds up over time. A nice "I'm sorry" gift would cost them little and would smooth some ruffled feathers, it would just make sense.

So of course they won't do it  Cheesy

I think you're being pessimistic.

Right here I will GUARANTEE they will make it up to us.

Any recommendations for a decent f2p MMO on the lower end of the graphics card spectrum?

Oh, be still my beating heart!

That's a great idea. And I hope they make it auto-recover on logon in case I ever accidentally destroy it to save inventory space. Or better still, auto recover whenever I open a chest (before I loot anything), I'm sure that won't add to lag.

Could they possibly come up with a more besterer gift?!

On a guild mate's suggestion, we're giving Guild Wars 2 a try this weekend, it's F2P for the core game now, and has some great reviews. I hear it's a bit hard on graphics cards, though, so definitely check out minimum system requirements before you download it.

We settled on that because it's family friendly (supposedly mostly), has great story and visuals, active combat, scales levels so you can party with lower level friends, auto-grants/completes quests so you don't have to run back and forth to Baudry Cartmon, has an auction house that spans servers, has inventory control that provides unlimited storage for ingredients, collectibles, and currency without having to travel to a bank, and no stat items in the microtransaction store.

I'm not sure if my sources are 100% right on all of that, but even if they're only mostly right is sounds worth it. We're going to give it a shot this weekend. Supposedly you can play a couple hundred hours before running out of the free content.

I also love Path of Exile, totally free and a fantastic game, but it's dark and gory, a Diablo clone not Baldurs Gate. It's not too bad on resources, but a bit more than DDO. I can run 5 instances of DDO before I notice any performance degradation, but only 2 PoE (and I haven't done that in quite a while, it may be worse now).

  

Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.
