Funny, during my break I hijacked my two year old’s tablet to play Pokemon Blue that I snuck on there when we prepped it for our family trip. Initially I just didn’t want her becoming a tablet zombie kid, but I can confirm that playing through Pokemon Blue during the holidays indeed takes you to a happier place.
Honestly, I started playing it about once a year once I stopped being too cool to enjoy myself over a decade ago.
There’s something nice about not having daily rewards or gacha or always online DRM. Just me and my team. I probably wouldn’t do Blue every year, but a healthy return to 90s gaming is refreshing.
I wish I was this peaceful.
In a safe memory
Funny enough, it is the least memory-safe game ever produced
I wish mentally I was there.
Instead, mentally, I’m here.
What is this one from?
IMO the best RPG ever made.
Bookmarking this, thanks! I’ve been feeling an urge to dive into some retro games recently.
There are two more modern sequels. I liked 2, but 3 was way too hard.
Also, Fallout 1 was basically a remake of Wasteland when it was still isometric and team-based.
