For 90s kids, there's no need for explanation. For others, well, pokemon was a phenomenon. It was everywhere, on TV, in magazines, toys, stickers. You could trade pokemon at the school excursion on the bus.
You felt alive in this world, pokemon gen 1-2 were the pinnacle of pokemon for me. And in gen2, finishing the game, and lo and behold, there's a whole other region (kanto) waiting for you to explore it. The night cycle in the game blew my mind in ways that I have been chasing ever since.
I know it will never be reached again, but the memory will remain as powerful as it was that evening of the early 00s. What is your greatest gaming high, that you know will never be topped again, and that you have been chasing ever since?
I just finished Stray, which is a masterpiece. So it's not been that long, honestly.
That's a hell of a game ending, is it not? It fukin screams for a sequel.
B12 is alive! That flicker. He's there. And we just freed the zurks ...
It broke me somewhat. Finishing that at 2 AM and having work the next day... not my best decision.
I've seen the 'true ending' video which helped a little. I just wish we get to see a sequel someday. Until then, I'll have to try replaying and collecting the various things I missed.
Damn, I need to get around to finishing this one. Took a break after the second chapter and forgot to pick it back up.
You definitely should! It's challenging but short; it'll be over before you know it. And I'm someone who struggles to finish most media.
Once you get past the tower where you have to run around while you wait for the elevator, things ease up. Still lots of chances to die, but that's the only spot in the game where you are that hard pressed. Although the sewer run is pretty stressful too ...
