You have hit me right in the feels, haven’t logged since 2009(ish), and I was right there again. Thanks for that

Tell me about it, I can still remember thinking how am I going to get 100 gold for my first mount! I remember it taking ages back in vanilla not only getting to level to 20 but grinding gold unless you were a high level crafter was such a pain. I was always jealous of druids, eventually made a druid tank for cata.

Reply to Far cry 6 worth it for £15/20? Ps5 by Oakenshield-
It's honestly one of the better ones. If you dig the formula, you should definitely grab it.
edit: just saw you loved both 3 and 5. Yeah, you'll really like 6. It's got the best of both those games.

1985 Super Mario Bros. This game (arguably) single handedly saved video games. All the later years were able to exist as they did because of this year.

This looks like something that could be straight from Tunic.

That's like calling the Yakuza games lazy for reusing Kamurocho. It's not the map that matters. It's what you do with it.

Its a direct sequel, did you seriously expect it to be a completely different map?
Also, its not even out yet! We've seen like 15ish minutes of footage.

Reply to TIL: When Phantasy Star IV released for the Sega Genesis in N. America in Feb. 1995, the retail price was $99. by Hotspur000
Cartridges of that era also use computer chips and have batteries and other electrical components. That would've been a large cost in producing games.
The CD era lowered production costs from dollars to literal cents.
Then digital distribution lowered that cost even further.

You're right that the world was still dangerous with Calamity Ganon around, so a full on city is probably too much to ask for anywhere besides the place Tarrey town is situated.
But it would have been interesting to see more than just the occasional adventurer getting smacked around by bokoblins, i.e. a group of adventurers that forms temporary camps. Something neat to spot in the distance.
​
>Which would be cool, though the impression I got from the trailer is that the monsters are also back. Hopefully it doesn't go in an annoying Minutemen direction...
My hopes are not high, but we'll see!

If you used to jam the SNES, you'd probably have a great time with the Switch. The catalogue of old games (which you may know from the past) from NES, SNES, N64, Sega Genesis, and now Gameboy/GBA is really large and quality now imo. It comes with the Nintendo Switch Online subscription. Switch also has, at least in my opinion, some of the best modern games in those old series. Mario Odyssey and 3D World, Metroid Dread, DKC Tropical Freeze, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
If you wanted to go *pure* nostalgia, you can get a SteamDeck and install like every emulator up to xbox 360/ps3. It's basically a small linux PC so it can be trickier to set up, but really is not bad. It could also play newer PC games from Steam, which was more the point of it. Like you can play the God of War and Horizon PS4 ports on it. Those PS4 exclusives are excellent titles.
TL;DR imo the very best way you could dip your toes back into gaming, with the best combination of new & old/nostalgic, you'd do well with a Nintendo Switch.

Reply to comment by StupidestGuyNominee in A Game thats taking so long to release that you're not interested anymore? by Dont_have_a_panda
Anthem and Battlefield 2042 were the final nails in the coffin for me getting hyped for games before release. These games had incredible marketing and trailers that didn't at all resemble what we got with the final product. I don't even trust the initial reviews on most games, because now developers will scam the playerbase by holding off on predatory monitization schemes until after the release reviews go out.
So yeah, I don't pay any attention to release dates or marketing for games anymore. I will judge games solely on how good they are when the fully release, regardless of how long they were in development.

Alright. You seem pretty determined that you know the map will remain unchanged, so I'll stop trying to bring logic into this.
