It's crazy how time flies!
I remember back in 2013 being so excited because I finally bought an AMD FX-6300 CPU and an AMD Radeon HD 3850 GPU so I could actually give tours at the original mall at more than 5-10 FPS. When I joined back in the first year of Famcraft, I had an AMD Athlon 64 X2, the original consumer multi-core CPU! A lot of programs back then weren't made in a way that could make use of more than one CPU core, but it treated me well for years. That mall was so hard on older computers at the time, and it's why we originally designed the next mall so it only had a handful of shops that were sectioned out; It allowed older computers to only have to worry about displaying 6-7 shops at once instead of every shop available at the same time.
