I see this written quite a bit. "RPG Glory days" or similar. I then thought to myself, taking into consideration the age difference between many here, which "Glory days" are they talking about?
I will start off with mine;
While I started playing CRPG's before this, my true Glory Days would be between 1986-92. Most of my favourite CRPG's were released or developed during those years, and afterwards things went rapidly downhill, never to return. After 1992, I came to the realisation that things were starting to head in a different direction to what I had hoped, with real time rubbish grabbing the spotlight, and old studios becoming frayed around the edges.
There has been some decent stuff released since then, but nothing that shines a light to those years for me.
What are yours? And why?
