Having an old PC can be good sometimes

By Lord.Nagash , 4th February 8:00 pm

Hey, my first post here in a while. But I digress.

I’ve been playing Battle Realms lately, mostly because I can’t actually run anything new on this computer. If I remember correctly, a lot of people denounced Battle Realms.
