It’s the Baldur’s Gate saga for me right now, and I’m still in the BG1 campaign.

It is such a great game to play on the couch with a trackball while chilling with the family.

I'm playing a new old game, because i'm playing the Suikoden Remaster. There for I have beaten the system by simultaniously playing both an 20+ year old game and a brand new game thats a few weeks old.

Older games = more than 2 years old? Then the same goes for readers, movie and TV watchers, etc media consumption most isn't from the current or previous years

What about new games, like world of warcraft.

[–] ansiz@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

There is just so much time in a day and I think nostalgia does come to play with this as well. Gaming tends to correlate to being younger and having more free time, so by playing the same games you did back then you're reliving those days.

Just a thought anyway, I tend to play older games as well, but also newer games like Baldur's gate 3 or Path of Exile 2.

New games are steaming piles of shit most of the time nowadays.

Heroes 3 HoTA is still excellent and being actively developed.

I do not. I haven't played a gamer older than thirty years old in years
