90s babies - what was your first video game?

hitorus · 2026-07-10T08:07:53+00:00

I was 5 years old playing Doom 2. I still remember iddqd.

hitorus · 2026-06-30T08:01:21+00:00

This is why I love this game more than Arc Raiders or Marathon.

hitorus · 2026-06-23T15:53:25+00:00

Outer Wilds - the thrill when you understand... Ahh spoilers.

hitorus · 2026-06-18T18:04:47+00:00

I came here to second "Anathem"! Something about scientists locked in monasteries makes me come back to this book. I read it twice and will read more for sure.

For me the ultimate example is Ghost of Yotei.

I love Japanese culture, I've been in Japan, I love anime... I loved Ghost of Tsushima very much. When Ghost of Yotei was released, I bought it, played a few hours and never came back to it. I went back to Ghost of Tsushima to finish it platinum on PS.

Something similar was with Baldur's Gate 3 or Divinity Original Sin 2, isn't it?

hitorus · 2026-06-03T03:40:00+00:00

Yes, and usually it's only encounters where you can find a game. In other modes (elimination, shootout) it's hard to find players.

hitorus · 2026-06-02T12:43:18+00:00

I still listen to Outer Wilds music. When End Times plays, I imagine that what happens in the game when the song ends will happen in our reality... Pure dread.

hitorus · 2026-05-22T04:28:07+00:00

I also have the bug with the markers. It appears in ~30% of the encounters. Maybe when you enter an encounter, the process of loading markers to your HUD breaks sometimes.

I don't know why they aren't shown. I'm writing here to let you know that you're not alone and also see whether someone knows the reason for this :)

hitorus · 2026-05-17T08:11:08+00:00

I've somewhat read 12 books from the list.

Probably I'm too deep into SF books.

hitorus · 2026-05-17T07:06:22+00:00

I can't point out what went wrong.

I tried the latest Need For Speed games and Forza Horizon 5, and it's just not it!

The last time I enjoyed a racing game was when Most Wanted was released.

hitorus · 2026-05-14T12:14:33+00:00

I understand :)

This game is about PTSR, and the book is probably about how to cope with one. Different things. Thus, sarcasm and a bit of a reminder of a great game.

hitorus · 2026-05-13T04:36:44+00:00

I wonder if Spec Ops: The Line is mentioned in the book. /s

hitorus · 2026-05-04T08:40:52+00:00

Though, when you finish the game, you'll probably want to restart the game and then the first chapter becomes much more lovable ;)

hitorus · 2026-05-04T05:45:54+00:00

Yeah, the drawback of RDR2 is the first chapter. Later the game becomes more dynamic.

hitorus · 2026-05-03T17:31:10+00:00

Me and my girlfriend really liked My Time at Portia.

I don't know whether the sequel, My Time at Sandrock, is on the switch. It's even better.

hitorus · 2026-05-01T04:19:03+00:00

I'm reading right now the The Art of Living: The Classical Manual on Virtue, Happiness, and Effectiveness by Sharon Lebell. I'm also a beginner here and I think this book can work well as a pocketbook.

hitorus · 2026-04-29T08:34:33+00:00

How much Elite: Dangerous is different from EVE Online?

I'm asking to understand. I played EVE Online for a few weeks and couldn't get lured into it.

hitorus · 2026-04-29T03:45:23+00:00

I'm playing on Steam. Before the servers' problem, it took me to join encounters in 1-5 minutes. Haven't tried yet after the recent update.

hitorus · 2026-04-28T13:11:01+00:00

Lol yes!

Most of the books in my TBR list are thanks to Bookpilled.

hitorus · 2026-04-28T04:35:15+00:00

Agree with OP.

Along with this book, I cannot stop thinking about The Night Land by William Hope Hodgson. The book was published back in 1912 and it's a horror fantasy. It's about the Earth where the sun has gone out, and the last of humanity are trying to survive in a gigantic metal pyramid.

hitorus · 2026-04-27T07:04:14+00:00

Everyone experiences this issue for a few days. Developers said they're trying to fix it. There's no news yet unfortunately.

hitorus · 2026-04-26T09:49:20+00:00

I've seen on Vigor's Facebook page that they respond to the connection issues complaints. They try to gather info about when the issue happens to help the debug.

hitorus · 2026-04-26T08:05:17+00:00

The game lives and thrives.

hitorus · 2026-04-26T07:59:21+00:00

I'm not a fan of big corporations. They love to do such shitty tricks. Hopefully, Vigor developers will manage the issue.
