  GameFAQ, ctrl+f, information found in seconds.

  Now you have to sit through someone shouting like and subscribe until they tell you.

  Absolutely loved GameFAQs in the day.

  I’ve just been replaying Freelancer (2002) for the first time since then, and it’s SO refreshing to find comprehensive guides on GaneFAQs which are just plain written text, not even any images.

  If you want to find tips on a modern game you basically have to scan through a bunch of YouTube wikis, unless the game is popular enough to have a fleshed-out wiki (versus a placeholder wiki on fandom where basically every page is just enough of a stub to come up in search engine results despite having no actual useful content)

  Still is here. RetroArch and a few torrents makes it trivially easy to play everything I didn’t get to as a kid on systems I didn’t have. But I’m not gonna grind.
