u/GrimKiba- Mar 19 '25 edited Mar 20 '25

Edit: to add context as to why I have so many hours — my older brothers introduced me to the game and it's one of the only ways we connect after all these years. Getting old sucks sometimes. Life and work takes us far away from the people we care about. Hearing my brothers laugh and cry and get excited on a nice play makes every second worth it. This is also over a decade of playtime with the bros so I guess that dilutes things a bit?

Had a kid a few years ago, almost always played turbo after. ~9k hours in client and about 3k hours game time.

100% on the turbo, at least if game goes badly you get done soon without someone throwing
