Tell us what game you are currently, or recently played, greater than 6+ months old.

I'm on vacation and my shitty Chromebook made me rediscover how atmospheric Diablo 1 was. I'm using DevilutionX source port, pretty good IMO.

I remember playing Diablo back in the 90s at my friends PC. I chose warrior as I always do in RPGs. The game was fun, atmospheric as f*ck, but then I hit those lava maze levels with shooters everywhere. It was terrible, because rhey kept shooting and running with no chance to get to them and kill 'em. So I ditched the game for good. I'll always remember it as the most atmospheric and dark game of that era and still have great memories of it.
