100% worth buying. highly recommended. tips, immediately mark this game as private once you get it. and if you decide to download certain wallpapers do not under any circumstance add them to favorites as they will be in your profile activity permanently. you might also want to keep your account on private should you download certain wallpapers, as your downloads can be seen by others within your subscriptions within the workshop if the game is not private or your account is not private. learn from my mistakes. and have a good day.

I just want a tree flowing in the wind or a nice beach with a semi-opaque clock or something that isn't another anime girl clad in a skimpy bikini. Yes, I tried filtering but somehow there are STILL wallpapers of flashy females swimming in bioluminescent algae. GIVE ME A SANDY SHORELINE AND A TIMEPIECE WITHOUT ALL THE TITS AND ASSES THAT'S ALL I WANT
