  • Maybe I haven’t used it enough, but I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. I may just need to game more, or play the ‘right’ games. I DO like the crt I have. I don’t at all feel issue jumping on to a modern OLED 55" LG.

    I went though quote a hassle and around $900 getting the CRT I have working. If this was for gaming it wouldn’t have been worth it.

    I have

    • 20" Sony Trinitron 4:3 480i Component
    • 12" (?) Apple monochrome display

I’ve recapped an Apple 2e and started playing what was one of my first games, the bards tale.

I distinctly recall I beat the game, but I can hardly get 1/2 through the first floor of the first dungeon.

I started grinding near a temple where I can heal my party but the rng encounters make a very hard battle every 4-5 battles that wipe party members.

Reviving a party member cost 900 gold a level so if I do get them leveled up to 2 or 3 it’s too expensive to get a raise.

Anyone else remember this game?
