Memories, many memories. I remember the endless nights playing Quake on dial-up, 190 ms ping, listening to Nirvana.
There are still people playing on some servers, and the challenge is higher than ever. Although I still have the reflexes, the tics, and I know the maps and respawn times, I had a very hard time fitting into the games. I imagine that for someone starting today, it must be impossible to face 30 years of muscle memory.
190ms? You lucky bastard!
(hopefully you're familiar with Monty Python...)
I have introduced my son to online Quake III servers where people still play regularly. The Quad Damage voiceover is still cool as hell.
