Guild Wars 2

Reason:
Its’ a good job I don’t have epilepsy because watching the updater flip between updating and Connection error(s) detected: Retrying screen like a crazy Max Hedroom style blipvert could have sent me loopy.

Anyway, 1 file remaining from about 900 MB to and including 1703 MB makes me wish that once 99% had been reached with 1 file to go it then switched to letting me know just how large this file was. That, or when a patch update is announced the theoretical maximum patch size is given in the update. Give me a chance and others to go and avoid watching a hypnotising flickering screen!

Yeah, I do have epilepsy. I’m lucky in that I’m not photosensitive (at least to the point of instant seizures, although looking at that for too long would make me have a fit), but it’s giving me serious eye/head pain when I peek at it now and then. I can only look at it in short bursts.

I’ve restarted it a few times after getting to that 99%, 1 file left part, and it seems to be hovering at 40kb/s. It’s super frustrating because I can’t look at it long enough to see if there’s any progress,. Not that I think it would show anyway. I’ve stuck with it simply because other people have reported eventual success.
