What game do you wish you got into as a kid? (leminal.space)

Mine are Half Life and Morrowind.

I feel like back when I didn't have a massive game library I would have spent so much time replaying Half Life and exploring every inch of the maps and trying to find exploits to break the game. The massive modding community likely would have kept me playing for years.

Morrowind probably would have gotten me a lot more into RPGs and fantasy games. I do love RPGs but still struggle to immerse myself in fantasy settings. I assume this is because I mostly played SciFi games growing up.

What about you? Is there an MMO or something you maybe tried and gave up on to soon?

I remember looking at the rows of PC game boxes at the store and being very curious about Myst. But for some reason I never asked my parents for it. I guess maybe since I didn’t really have any idea what it was, it just felt like something out of reach.

I love “artsy puzzle games” now, so I feel like that would have been a pretty cool experience for me way back then!

If you still haven't played it, check out Riven which was recently released. It's a complete modern remake (plus some changes) of the sequel to Myst.
