   Thermal paste reapplication — how much did it help?

   Auto-battle versus manual for hard content — second attempt

   Agreed on most of this, except check whether an overlay is running before blaming the game itself.

   Neverness to Everness — first impressions megathread — mobile side

    Traversal feels great once it opens up (EU servers)

    Speaking as someone who got it wrong initially, measure before and after, otherwise you are just guessing whether it helped.
