Mine are Half Life and Morrowind.
I feel like back when I didn’t have a massive game library I would have spent so much time replaying Half Life and exploring every inch of the maps and trying to find exploits to break the game. The massive modding community likely would have kept me playing for years.
Morrowind probably would have gotten me a lot more into RPGs and fantasy games. I do love RPGs but still struggle to immerse myself in fantasy settings. I assume this is because I mostly played SciFi games growing up.
What about you? Is there an MMO or something you maybe tried and gave up on to soon?
DotA and Counterstrike for sure.
I tried the first but it was unapproachable, the second I think I had to pay for so it was a no-no.
To expand a little I’ve been playing moba for more than a decade now, but I wish I played them for even longer (and not waste time on that slob that is wow), and I like CS, but played it very little because I’ve never played anything fps and so I can’t enjoy it the way I’d like to.
I’d like to also say Dwarf Fortress but I’m afraid I would have turned out even weirder than I am.
Morrowind- oh shit u wrote it too 😂 im playing tribunal rn
Diablo 2. I was still in school, parents had dial up, and it was marketed in such a way that I thought it was mostly catering towards the online experience, so I blew it off. Flash forward nearly 20 years, get into D2:R, single player is actually pretty cool
For some reason, Starcraft. There’s barely anyone who’s into it in my age group. Not that I got good, I just had so much fun in custom maps.
Definitely the Silent Hill series for me. We were more of a Resident Evil household growing-up
