Not so long ago, my rig briefly caught ablaze. Considering it’s one of the best gaming PCs you can buy today, I almost collapsed right there on the spot when I started to see flames flickering from the bottom right corner of my home-built desktop. It’s one of the most alarming tech malfunctions I’ve witnessed in the two decades I’ve been building PCs.
I’m not actually blaming Kay Vess or her ludicrously cuddly sidekick Nix for this fiery fiasco, but the game that seemingly started to make my PC burn was Star Wars Outlaws. It’s a decent enough action-adventure romp, sure. Yet if that was the title that had melted my desktop into a Wicked Witch-style pool of sadness, every bit of Star Wars memorabilia I own was going straight in the bin.
