Sheepishly holds up hand

Surely, you mean Warcraft 2 and Red Alert, right? Right?

[–] Geometrinen_Gepardi@sopuli.xyz 14 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Diablo 2 too, seems like it was just yesterday.

[–] gens@programming.dev 4 points 3 months ago

See project diablo 2, and homm3 hota.

[–] NegativeInf@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

What's Red Alert? Should I know this? I'm 31 and all I have ever played is Minecraft. Lol.

Hell March intensifies

The game that came out when I was 4?

[–] Yuki@kutsuya.dev 9 points 3 months ago

Yea, I'm 31 as well and I played it so much

Did you only start gaming in your late teens?

[–] NegativeInf@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Nope. Played mostly Nintendo games, like Ocarina, MM, pokemon, and smash. Then the alpha builds of Minecraft in 2009. Guess I'm a filthy casual. 🤷‍♂️

You're fine :)

It's just weird to me I guess, someone in my age group who doesn't know the CNC games.

My only exposure to command and conquer was that my bio dad played it when I was over at his house on weekends while he ignored me. And I think around that time I was more into RuneScape.

If for nothing else, the soundtracks and Tim Curry's / George Takai's performances in Red Alert 2
