What thing do you love that you can never get anyone else to check out? (lemmy.world)

Kind of a hard question to word, but is there anything in your life you have recommended to other people but no one's ever gotten into?

I love podcasts and have friends who still thank me for getting them into this one or that one. But I've never gotten anyone to listen to My Brother, My Brother and Me. I don't know if the name is unappealing or the concept but people seem to bounce off immediately.

So what can't you get people into and why should we check it out?

For me it's getting people to play KOTOR, I know it's old but it's just sooo good and the story is so great, and please just play it. Pretty please.

You're forgetting the other major hurdle, Taris. Getting past that first planet is a slog. It's definitely my biggest barrier whenever I try to replay it.

I can't get it to run in wide screen (wqhd) on my PC so I never really started the game beyond the menus. I you have a fix I'm a taker

Are you playing the original KOTOR or the remakes by Aspyr? They redid them so that they no longer crash on start and you don't need to change or add patches.

It's available on mac, switch, android and iOS. Apparently a new remake is still possibly coming soon too.

The one on Steam, I'm not sure. I bought it years ago, I think it's just called KOTOR. Do you mean it's supposed to work ootb on modern systems ?
