Beginners very welcome :)
@imran Are you aware of litrpg?
Essentially fantasy novels set not in a fantasy world but in a game world so the antagonist tends to level up, a lot. The whole grind and continuous progression delivered in book form.
@imran 1 & 2 are a little bit old and clunky now and also rather linear and smaller compared to 3.
I'm not saying 1 is bad, but 3 is a big improvement.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman,_Turkey
They have a University and it is called Batman University.
Which means.
There are people who went to Batman University and write that on their CV.
@imran KOTOR s good but a tad old now :)
Witcher 3 is very good, probably the most mainstream of recent RPGS and full of quests with impossible moral choices.
The netflix series is due next year, so you can watch that to see if it is the sort of story that you like.
@DickWThomas @fuseartspace Gosh darn babies, always spoiling your fun :)
Tonight our traveling workshop is in our hometown of #Bradford from 6-9pm @fuseartspace (near B&M / Wilkos) We will be teaching the secret codes that make the pixels dance. See https://www.outlands.network/wetgenes-workshop for details, no previous experience necessary just bring a laptop to code on.
@imran Pretty much every RPG game is full of moments like this :)
@catalog01 @OutlandsNetwork @Fat_Out You went from 0 to 120 million pixels a second in a couple of hours. getting anything to work is a huge achievement :)

@llamasoft_ox I remember finding a bunch of 1800s London slang explained at the end of this one.

Easy to remember since I guess the play is the root of "Tom and Jerry".
