Surprised no one mentioned GTA series
Someone further down did mention the 3D GTA games. I'm assuming they mean 3 and VC

12 hours? Lol probably just some stuff to code on and screw around in. I'll probably take a nap in there somewhere to kill time
12h is barely enough for 1.5 out of 33 of Ascendance of a Bookworm volumes. I would probably rererereread volume 1 and 18
12 hours? I'm sleeping through that whole thing
You are going to be trapped in a room for 12 hours with a mid 2000s office desktop with no internet connection and an external hard drive; what are you putting on the hard drive?
Nothing, because I won't have an internet connection...

Neverwinter, will entertain me all day long
Angband or umoria
Without an Internet connection? Nothing.
You'd rather spend the 12 hours just using whatever is on the computer than bring in some of your ill-gotten gains for some guaranteed entertainment?
Can I take the external hard drive to my own PC before hand? I just don't have shit to use to load anything into it from outside. lol

I could bring the whole Person of Interest series and wouldn't finish a season. That, or any TV series with reasonable length. I was thinking:
- Dark
- Breaking Bad
- Fringe
- Mr. Robot
- Hannibal
- Battlestar Galactica
- The Expanse
Speaking of, I wonder what the mid-00s performance for decoding HEVC.
Also, what do I get from this, anyway?

You don't kill your family or get arrested if you are in this person's position I guess

That's a good question. I hadn't thought of how that would play into things
Yeah, my collection is now on either AV1 or H265. Otherwise that 2TB won't last.
I was hoping someone with a retro PC could answer.
Rollercoaster Tycoon 2
ADoM
Donkey Kong Country and SNES9x
2005, you say? I bet KOTOR could run on low on a shitty office PC.
Master of Orion 2
Check out OpenRCT. It's RCT but improved for the modern age.
I'm well aware, thank you
