Yes, we all did, and it didn't crash at all. Bear in mind that I have no idea what you mean by "crashed a lot". I'd look at a game that crashed once an hour as being perfectly stable, although a little bit annoyning. It's only when crashes start to occur every ten or fifteen minutes that it gets aggravating.

We seem to have different standards, I expect my games to run for several hours on end (assuming I don't Alt Tab excessively or have any invasive programs running in background). Almost all my games meet this standard of mine.

I personally would have to describe once an hour as pretty unstable, especially since you may lose at least 15 minutes of gameplay since your Last save (and I've had a few games that didn't even have a save).

In that case it would be more economical to Subscribe to a porn site for $10-$15 a month than shell out $50 for a game. I expect at least 2 months, but 3 is what I'd rate a good game. Truly great games Last years.

I've played UO for 5 years, and back in my younger days Doom, and it's extreme editability Lasted me about 3. SE is also another long Laster, though I'm too tired to remember how long ago it has been since I started playing SEIII.
