Hello All!

[LordP]

Hello everyone.

I'm LordP and I am playing a game for the first time since the original Doom - I am 74 years old, and I'm afraid that I'll need bunches of help. I hope you'll forgive some really dumb questions that I can't seen to find on Google.

Hey LordP,

I'm in my mid 50's myself but been gaming since I was a kid.  .....my first console was a Bally Arcade in the late 70's (?).  ....Breakout, Pong, etc.  

I just started to get back into the game myself in recent weeks for lack of any other titles my PS5 friends and I are interested in (same age).  I'll try to help where I can but I'll say it right now that I haven't played the campaign in years so I can't really assist much in that regard.  

Also, I've been having issues with the site that can't be resolved so it's hard for me to even log in to reply most times.  Sorry, hopefully others will swing by and help out but I will too if I can.

Regards, Kean

Thanks Kean_1.

Yeah, I just now experienced login problems too.

I just realized that I should have specified that I'm on PC. I recently built a new system on a ROG Maximus Z690 Formula, using a 13900K CPU, and 64GB of RAM,  but I did cheap out on the GPU a bit, a GTX-3060.

Oh boy.  You may as well be talking in Latin.  Hahaha...

I spent 30 years at large PC manufacturer before I retired (early) so it's not as if I don't know my around one but I've been out of the game for a while now.  Not at all familiar with the latest components or even some of the tech advancements these days.  

I really got into building my own PCs starting a bit in the early 80s and then full bore in the 90s up until a little after the PS3 came out.   I used to keep up on all that stuff back then (you really had to with the frequent changes).  ....but with the PS3, I lost my interest in PCs as a hobby.....just work.   

Yeah, the tech Q&A is going to be different but the game itself is essentially the same across all platforms. 

I think I might have nailed down the cause of the website issue or at least the work-around in my case.   I changed some settings in Chrome so let's see if that changes anything for my login problems.  So far it's been hit or miss.  .....or actually more miss than hit.  lol
