Late 40s here... Gaming since 1986 on Amiga
Hello fellow late 40s, are you me? What's your favourite genre or game now and what was your favourite on Amiga?
These days: Factory games (Satisfactory) and Total War Amiga: XCom, Syndicate, Civ
i played on PC but my dad's friends had an amiga so i played on it sometimes when i was about 5... I found PP Hammer a lot of fun and Altered Beast simply looked incredible.
Favourite Amiga games: Secret of Monkey Island 1&2, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Rick Dangerous 1&2, Pirates!, Flashback, Lemmings, Eye of the Beholder....just off the top of my head
Favourite now: The Witness, Braid, Portal, Obra Dinn, Papers Please, Fez, Talos Principle, BoTW, The Last Door...etc.
Awesome, love all those 90s games. My wife and I are deep into Obra Dinn right now and Papers Please is one of our faves too.
Obra Dinn is such a unique experience, a shame (though unavoidable) that there is zero replay value though. My jaw literally dropped a few times during that game.
I don't always think replay value is essential as long as the experience is golden. We're only half way through Obra Dinn and it's blowing us away.
The voice acting is especially awesome.
Have you made it around to Disco Elysium yet?
It's on my list, and it's a bit higher up now because of your comment...thanks for the recommendation(?).
Yes, definitely recommended. It's the modern iteration/spiritual successor to the great point-and-click adventure games you mentioned (among others). Had young me known Disco Elysium was in my future when I was playing Police Quest 2, I would have peed myself.
Satisfactory, Counter Strike, Fallout 4 (heavily modded), Assassin's Creed (still love Black Flag), Portal 1÷2 and of course every game of the Witcher series. This is a small fraction of the games I played in the last years but all I can remember for now 😅
No idea what our first computer was, but it was BIG. The first thing I did was play games. This would've been somewhere around 87-89.
