Ha ha, the great Specy vs C64 debates! Always, people love to tribalise. Even within Linux, it is what distribution do you prefer?
I was going to mention about how many of my observations about learning from games started when you were using an aged computer. I mean, we had to wait fifteen minutes for the game to even load!
Manic Miner was the first game that taught me the need for one pixel precision!
As a long-time WoW player, boy does that first one resonate with me. Using Leap of Faith or Rescue as a healer to get overzealous DPS *out* of the bad has become second nature at this point.
Or, you know, being that overzealous DPS because I get tunnel vision during my rotation.
Thanks, Nadia! Yes, why not use games to keep the mind active as long as possible.
First computer I ever had was a Commodore 64 - I was a king amongst the Spectrum lads at school, still pine for it now.

Yes, when you're the DPS you can forget to be nimble as you're focused on dealing damage. It can cause problems for the Healer!
But when you get that fantastic combo of great DPS and skilled healer it's a wonderful thing!
