Change the size of text in Windows using Settings or Magnifier.

I never found a way to change the specific size of text, but scaling does change it's size, just without the precise numbers we have come to expect from word documents.

It's all good Thanks

Ok, so after about 10 restarts and a few of them being Linux from habit...  Here's what I found.

So it is working, but my suggestion to include the names inside the quotations in my earlier posts was incorrect, that didn't work at all!  I will probably edit the above posts so the wrong answers are not there in case someone finds this forum post later.

Nice, nope.  I've been playing Still Wakes The Deep & Currently downloading The Council, Beyond The Darkness, and Once Alive.  Looking forward to playing them.  I live in the light, so non-violent video games is my jam, broski.

 

How about you man?  What's your system(s) specs?  You should take some pics, lets start a thread showing off our Computer Systems Operations, broski!

I had quoted Kaz's post when I asked that. 

 

Got my build log and specs in signature.

[HeyItsChris]

Wow it would be amazing to see it in action bro, I love hear all about the details & tweaks of our computer system operations.

I used to GvG a lot back in the day.  Such a sad day when iQ beat EvIL's split build by turtling until Victory Or Death.  They had a glyph sac meteor shower elementalist, and a ranger who sacked himself to stack up the enemy NPC's, making it easy for the elementalist to kill them all.  They also had a Blood is power Necromancer feeding their monks energy.  Devs decided VOD would just end the game after that.  In all fairness, watching iQ sit there for 20 minutes made for a really boring championship game.

I was never involved with high end GvG, but man that takes me back.

There has never been another game that is it's equal for PvP.  GvG and HoH were on a different level for team coordination.  I knew multiple monks that refused to carry infuse health, because any time someone died it felt like they should have stopped it.  1/4th second cast skill that would give someone full health, but more often than not it wasn't what would save someone. 

I think the game started to suffer from buildwars after all the expansions were out.  It was on full display for EvIL's split build vs iQ's turtle build.  We used to friends list certain people for tournaments because their character name would give away the build they were playing.

 

The problem with GW 1 was that it was incredibly hard to watch a game and understand all the nuances that were going on.  A mesmer diversion catching the defensive elementalist's blinding surge wasn't something that spectators picked up on unless they knew what to watch for, but it could easily change how defensive a team had to play.  Sometimes it came down to stuff like blinding the ranger first so that the Mesmer's diversion wasn't interrupted for the upcoming spike.  Too bad twitch.tv wasn't a thing back then for high level commentators to give a play by play.

 

GW 2 was/is great in it's own ways, but I wish we had a true successor to the original Guildwars.

Man I share all your same opinions here. 

 

I've extremely mixed on Guild Wars 2. It's completely different from the original and the original deserves a spiritual successor.

If anyone has Forza Motorsport 7 or Forza Horizon 4, We can race online bros!

I need a wheel for driving games.  It's on my desired items list, but it's next to an OLED monitor and VR.  I should probably get my flight sim up and running before I spend more money.
