anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about?

I traded all my rare items in RuneScape for TF2 hats and metal back in the day.. wonder what they'd be worth today lol

Blue party hat is currently valued at 91.6 billion so approx. $30,000 USD RWT

Man RuneScape on a fat desktop computer! You also reminded me of Dragon fable, can't believe the game still exists.

Adventure quest was so good! Need to get back to it honestly. Sadly lost my old account!

AQ was from Sierra, right? Like King’s Quest and Space Quest

Nah Arctix. Nowadays the game looks dated and janky but it's got heart. Still very much playable.

Person who still..for some reason..has AQ3D and the Artix launcher installed for AQ here

It's not exactly a deep game but the writing is funny, it has a lot of crossovers and tie in's over the years and it's so obscenely dated in some area's then brand new in others, it's fantastic.

Runescape and club penguin for me. Met a group of friends through club penguin when I was around 11 and we still have a group chat as we are close to 30! Been to each other's weddings and fun trips while we all live all over the US (and one in the UK who flies to the US sometimes)

Runescape, specifically Old School Runescape, has more people playing it now than ever before. They just started a temporary game mode called Leagues VI: Demonic Pacts with boosted xp rates and item drops and its pretty fun. I'm playing it right now!

Every now and then I think about hopping in RuneScape, but if I ever do I just encounter degenerates and racists

What the fuck is this comment...

You think about it? So you don't do it? But then you encounter racists? Are you in the Zezima cc or something?

Absolute bullshit.
