I’ve been wanting to tryout all these N64 decompiles see if they are an improvement to emulation.

Actually looks really easy to setup the Mario Kart one

That’s my suggested way of playing the games (unless you’re looking to try and get closer too the original hardware with filters and stuff). The QOL features really make it worth it

The first one that comes to mind is Ocarina of Time. I was 10 when it came out. I didn’t know video games could do that. Been a huge Zelda fan ever since.

Also metal gear solid 2. I was 13 when that game came out, my brother and I rented a ps2 without a memory card. We were obsessed instantly. We left the ps2 on all weekend so we could beat it. I replayed it recently and it still holds up. Kojima is on another level.

Lightsong,

Same, I only played OoT and MM when I was kid. The itch to play other Zelda games was bothering me for the longest time. So luckily over the years, I bought some random used Nintendo consoles off friends, last year I bought bunch of used Zelda games and finished them and emulated some games that I couldn’t get irl.

It was long 6 months but worth it.

ameancow,

Metal Gear was such an influential series in my young life that I managed to get into Metal Gear Solid 2.

I could never say which guard I am in the open internet, but it’s my lasting claim to immortality.

Kingdom Hearts II.

There was something about that summer, and the way this game (especially through Twilight Town) delved into the theme of an “everlasting summer” …it was a magical year. And that year of my life still resonates with me till today.

Plus, I thought Sora and gang to be so wholesome.

DrSteveBrule,

Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 were some of the first games I ever beat as a kid. I remember getting through all the credits and immediately starting over lol. I still do a play through if them both every few years. I played the third one once, it’s flashy but doesn’t hold a candle to the first two.

EverQuest. But it never ended, I just stopped playing (and paying).

ameancow,

I wonder how many of us will go through our whole lives being able to mentally trace the route between Freeport and Qeynos. Or the perfect knoll-grind route in Blackburrow.

FatCrab,

I can give a spontaneous lecture on the lore of EQ np and it’s a distressingly pointless use of brainspace that could go to literally anything else as a better use. That said, I fucking love EQs unhinged post-imperial apocalypse setting with its catguys (who have cat animal buddies) on the moon fighting goth vampires with a fetish for leather while snakepeople chill in their pyramids surrounded by vacuum to keep away a sentient genocidal fart unleashed on them by the god of fear.

DiskCrasher,

Or the Mistmoore trains.

World of Warcraft. I was really addicted to it for a few years but it really helped me get over a lot of the social anxiety issues that I had. I went from being really shy and barely interacting with other people in that game to being elected to take over a 60+ person guild by the time I was done with it. That confidence carried over into real life when I went back to school and began my career.

Both Psychonauts games had this exact same dopamine release. I spent all of my time playing both as they both came out right around the time of a close family member dying and the games were my outlet for those emotions at the time. Very special games to me.

Civ 1 was what got me into gaming, and influenced a lifetime passion of history and studying, as well as strategy/4x/gsg gaming.

Makoto009, do gaming w What game changed your life?

Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic (the first one). This one was my complete entrance to the RPG games and i was so soaked into the atmosphere and the characters. And well of course Witcher 3. For me the best game ever. Setting, characters, story, choises…

A while ago i tried one of those mods bringing back the feeling of the 4J version of Minecraft.

Not sure if it is this one: www.curseforge.com/minecraft/…/legacy-minecraftBut they brought back even an updated version of the tutorial world. Its worth checking out, it even has controller support.

I’ve always thought about trying it out, and i think at one point i tried it for a few seconds but something just felt off? I want to give it another try though some day

Starcraft 2

PieMePlenty,

Is the game really this good? Ive heard so much praise through comments like yours now that I’m probably going to have to just try it at this point. Winter sale, probably biting the bullet.

spoke0thedevil,

The game was indeed that good. The combat is fun and she story is amazing.

Mendas,

They really figured out the pacing there. The times at the camp were so good not only for the characters to reflect but for the players as well.

I actually found Lemmings to be a game that changed my life. I played it just before I became a professional programmer. Solving Lemmings puzzles is not exactly like programming, but it does teach you that there is a solution and if you just keep persistently trying different shit, you will eventually solve the problem. Also, it actually helps to be high as a kite all the time.

HugeNerd,

I loved Lemmings on the Amiga. A similar but much less frenetic game is Loderunner.

I’ve always played video games one way or another, so I consider them all to be life changing. In a general sense, because getting games in my country wasn’t easy in the 80’s and 90’s, and most would bring them from the US, so I learned English through the games, which opened the possibility to hang out (online) with people from around the world.

But I think there’s two games that marked me:

Vampire the Masquerade Redemption, because until then I hadn’t played any story-driven true RPG. And after I finished it, I moved on to games like Fallout and Dragon Age, which led me to learn about modding, communities, etc.

The Last of Us, because until then no game (no matter how much I loved it) made me feel so intensely. I played it in several days, and each day I was emotionally exhausted. The ending left me speechless. I would wake up every day feeling like I’d been hit by a truck, for about a week or two.

For some reason there is a disproportionate love for the tutorial world on Xbox 360. I guess a lot of the current generation of players got their start there.

I’m old. I started playing in alpha. We didn’t even have a food bar.

Remember when it was just grass and cobble?

fushuan,

Yah I felt low key attacked when they said that the “old villager” model was nostalgic. I played before villagers even existed, when we did crazy redstone stuff with very basic things.

The tutorial world was always super cool to me growing up. The big floating minecraft sign, the large structures they make for showing the basics, and all the hidden locations around the map. As a kid I thought that was the only way to collect all the discs was to find them hidden in the tutorial world. There was a lot of magic in those worlds, I miss them

360 was where i got my start. Something about 4j’s tutorial world is oddly charming. I love bouncing back to the alpha though on Java
