  • This is exactly it. I definitely used a lot of walkthroughs as a kid. I also feel like games in the 90s and early 00s were just plain harder, or sometimes poorly designed.

    These days I only look something up when I have got to a point of near rage over how much of my limited gaming time has been wasted, and I need to know if I am just a moron, or if it’s a bug, or bad game design. Of course, then I get mad that I can’t find it written out, and have to skim around in some fucking YouTube video to figure it out.





  • I’d say the first one that really got me was Roller Coaster Tycoon when I was a kid. It got to a point where I was playing so much that my dreams were all in isometric grid form. Mostly about park designs, but even other dreams were set in that reality.

    After that, it was WoW for my first 3 semesters of college. I didn’t go to class most of the time and got academic suspension for a year. After that I was very cautious with MMOrpgs. Never got too invested into a guild again.
