Uhm. Doom was originally released in 1993. 30 years ago. Dragon age Origins was released in 2009. 14 years ago.
So…
Not quite. got a couple years before that’s true.
FWIW, the first game I beat was the OG legend of zelda. I was 7, it was my dad’s game and i wasn’t supposed to be playing it for some reason. I got caught when my dad was strugling on the puzzles in the water temple and I gave some helpful advice… (“We won’t tell mom about this. now where did you say I go?”)
the first PC game I got heavily into was Age of Empires, though, a lot of my friends played starcraft, and insisted it was better than AoE; so I played one game with them. (They were all so very patronizing… so I let them be patronizing and then turned my ally to hostile and carpet-nuked the entire map.) (yeah. I went back to AoE after that, lol.)
For those wondering, The game would use a shift cipher on chat. when chatting between factions, you wouldn’t be able to read it. Well. except we were nerds and they used the same shift cipher. for horde players saying LOL, alliance players would see KEK. so addons existed that could ‘translate’ back and forth.
The reasoning was that cross-faction, eh ‘comunication’ was mostly taunting and shit.
