Yeah, that sounds pretty normal, I guess. The time-frame part is probably based on how new you are as well as the nature of the task. I did quite a bit of that type of thing when I started, basically fixing tech debt, and small stuff.
If it’s something you want to bring up, I think you expressed yourself pretty clearly. You could schedule some time with your boss to talk about it.
What would frustrate me would be the rework I was doing. If you could maybe even set up a short weekly meeting? Show your boss what you’re doing and they could tell you if it’s the right track or not.
I don’t play games, but I recently tried to get this one going for my wife on steam. I ended up getting it to work, but not through steam. She really likes the game, even just the base model that’s free.
I think there is also a lot of modding that’s done, so you could put those in.
The issue I hit was that it also requires the EA app, and I got frustrated putting it on Linux so I just got a cracked version, which came with a ton of the DLC’s. Like, some 74 of them and every expansion.
She says it’s a lot of options to choose from, but works fine after some tweaking.
