    My ram was 180€ and now is 1900€... It's a very specific example and similar other models are not 10x (probably closer to 3-5x), but its still mind-blowing.

    I've been playing Ale Abbey which is a really fun tycoon-style game where you make different beers and build up your production and supporting infrastructure to be successful. It looks very nice, plays well and has a satisfying gameplay loop.

    I've also been playing Broken Arrow with some pals. It's an RTS that has a fun balance of micro and macro managment.

    The concept of a family computer seems to be mostly dead where I am.

    Most work with laptops and if they do have a home office setup it's just a monitor and dock.
    Kids just have a phone and possibly a laptop which they can use anywhere.

    MKBHD is less about the technical side and more about the design side or feeling side.

    But I suppose his point is that this type of UI design (at least to this level) has not been done much in the past, especially on mobile devices. Now with more powerful processing, this level of design is doable without having to worry about performance.

    It just gives designers more toys or options and continues the battle between "looks good" and "looks readable/useable".

    I'm terrible at being creative from zero myself. I always have to build up from experiences or world knowledge and stuff.

    But what's always a nice picture to see is a kitty cat.
    Perhaps a version from your head or if you want inspo, then perhaps Niti, who I got as a small kiddo, and grew up with and moved into my first own home with. https://imgur.com/a/B7MER62

    The way Ubisoft handled The Crew 1 helped to launch the Stop Killing Games initiative. It's most relevant to EU citizens, and I know it can be a bit of a controversial topic.

    I'd recommend to look at DEFCON and also some of the games published by the publisher of Broken Arrow. They had some games that kinda fit your description.

    I'd second Valheim.

    I am someone who has loved Minecraft for years, but now I've had a tough time staying in the game as I've kinda done everything at least once. I feel no challenge from the game, and I do not want to artificially create myself one or have to grind a lot.

    Valheim was a beautiful new world to explore, discover, and conquer. The building mechanics are also quite good, imho.
    It's probably missing the same level of modability as Minecraft and the open endedness, as it has a clear progression "tree" designed in.

    I started to take creatine with my morning fibre drink as well, as it is easy to mix in there. I'm excited to see if it helps.

    I believe it helped a bit with power in the past, but I will see if it was just training, causing improvements, or a placebo.
