As I said, they changed the upgraded artifact to make it now lose 25% ARP. I anticipated this, and removed the artifact before today's daily login so was not affected. Still wasted two fragments. Worth it? Kinda. Not really.

That artifact is likely going to become legendary later at a severely increased Fragment cost due to 'extra energy requirements' or some such nonsense...probably best to upgrade it as the story continues 🤷‍♂️

Idk if this was global (I assume it was), but it seems like they

because I was given 5 fragments as a calender reward the same day the artifact was put up again.

I don't pay enough attention to the calender to know if they do that every month, but if not they were clearly expecting that and the complaints they were likely to get :LOL:

You don't win keys every time. Mostly you win 125s. You can also win 2c credit, and also keys. I won seven keys this month, and no idea how many 2c since it doesn't record that, and I didn't keep track.

Not really. Digital copyright laws didn't exist, or at least they weren't clear, so pirating the games was normal. I recorded Dan Dare (C-64) from the national TV - educational show about computers. Cheats were also very popular - we called them "Pokes", because of the POKE BASIC command, and most game magazines had them. Back then, it was like in the Wild West, but with computers. 🤷‍♂️

Those wonderful times! Half an hour listening to that, and if you passed the level, you had to load another piece.

And when you were killed and you had to go back to the beginning, another half hour loading 🤣

It wasn't 30-minute loads, at least for most games, and pirated versions were only a few minutes at most, but if they were recorded at different tape head positions, you needed to use a screwdriver to find the right "signal". I'm talking about C-64 here, obviously.

It's like anything with two tier speeds. No one likes waiting. Tape was slower than disk, which was slower than cart. Of course carts weren't very common and cost money, while you could pirate the other two. I had pirate Target Renegade on disk, and if you passed a certain level, it asked you to insert tape/side two.

Even on PS2, you had disc and HDD. Now you have HDD and SSD. I don't think there's much difference between SATA and even the latest M.2, but there's a very noticeable difference with HDD and SSD.
