Ahh that sweet sweet dopamine. If you don’t have any handy, gamebought is fine.
Imagine how much cooler you’d be if the game were newer.
Nah. Older games are often less fancy, so gameplay and execution need to carry. Time culls the mediocre, leaving only the memorable behind.
me @ sims 2
also me @ kings quest 5
Steam sales, yo!

so true bestie
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.
I’m still not sure how much I like BG3, but I have sunk 90h into it at this point, so it can’t be that bad.
My game of the year for 2023 was probably the Q2 remaster, overall.
Mine were 7 and 14, respectively, and then I had Diablo 4, so I understand.
only starting to get into minecraft now
Does dwarf fortress count as a modern game or a 20 year old game?
I guess you could technically play one of the older versions
Both and a game 20 years from the future when Toady finally finishes it.
Nah we’re going to transfer his consciousness into a robit so he can keep working forever
Yes.
Similarly, I play a game called Clan Lord that came out in the 90s, but still gets updated regularly.
I would say this is all about Skyrim, but I do think that game still is very popular today
*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).
My goal is to ignore irl goals for in-game ones 😤
The real-life mission system is totally broken. I’ve accomplished tons of goals and the rewards usually don’t even trigger, at all.
Plus the classes are ridiculously unbalanced! “Billionaire” and “loud religious idiot” need to be nerfed yesterday! Don’t even get me started on how game breaking playing a hybrid of those is!
Billionaire ain’t a class, it’s just an unpatched exploit. It’s really easy to pull if you already have at least some millions lying around.
Gran Turismo 4 is 20 years old…
And DOOM hit 25 this year.
Edit: I’m stupid at math, it’s actually 30 lol
It turned 30 this December! So much rip & tear !
HUGE GUTS
You think Doom came out in 1998?
ah, I mistyped, it’s 30 lol
Half Life is 25; I’ve been slowly working my way through the anniversary edition
idk I still think 100%ing donkey kong 64 is still one of the greatest accomplishments humanity has won
I’m not interested unless I see “First transmitted via telegraph by the US Government, 1883.” in the about section of the game store.
I cannot play unless Ben Franklin himself has endorsed it.
haha he couldn’t have known about the internet
Yeah, this is a misquote. In reality he was talking about television.
Why does it matter how old the game is?
I started playing Project Zomboid this year. Its about a decade old but they’re still adding features.
