    I’m not interested unless I see “First transmitted via telegraph by the US Government, 1883.” in the about section of the game store.

      Don’t forget to find one of those citizens that are temporarily immortal to punch and kick their shit for maximum physical experience. I loved doing that on that first city, after finishing the quest where the dude convinces you to change your hair and beard “for his daughter”.

    My top two games played this year are over 10 years old each.

    My 3rd most played is Baldur’s Gate 3, weighing in at 250 hours, so I’ve got that going for me.

    Haha how weird and quirky! A game from 2013? No one’s ever played those before! You must be so special and unique! But not as special and unique as me, playing games from the 80s! Oh wait. There’s nothing special and unique about any of this.

      I find it curious to see people having this sort of insecurity (in some cases, some sort of aversion) with playing older games, while they don’t have it with other media, like books or music.

        Exactly! You never see someone saying “haha, watching a 50 year old film, oh crazy me!” when watching Star Wars.

    There’s only a few games I played before release, RimWorld and Stone Shard.

    Currently I’m playing Beneath a Steel Sky from 1994, and Fallout 4 is next.

    And I will celebrate with you each time you recover the Amulet of Yendor

    *while ignoring any real-life counterpart of any of those. (except goals, kinda, since your goal at the moment is doing those things in that game).
