Let's feel old and depressed.

Yeap. I'm 31... saying that out loud feels weird as fuck. I feel I'm just getting started, lmao.

I'm still at the first stage talking shit and making maps for free.

I'll get to the depressed stage someday.

Don't forget UT '99 was 17 years ago today.

If UT99 was a person, he'd be screwing your sister right now. Wrap your fucking head around that.

I dont even want to know how old doom2 is.

I still have one game in my backlog for the original gameboy.

The first game I ever played was Pong. So yeah I'm old, thanks for reminding me, haha

Sigh as fuck

I'm the age of Jesus and adding one in January it's time to take some decisions and take some bold steps…

wonder if I can still even get into game dev other than working for myself and coming out with a finished walking simulator by the age of retirement.

Quote from dux

10 hours ago, dux said: A lot of us used to be 16+ on here talking shit and mapping for everything Half-Life/Quake and now we are all 28/29+ with industry jobs or something.

if you had told me 10 years ago we'd still be doing this I'd have said you're fucking insane. But it wouldn't have sounded too bad, either

I turned 33 on the same day that Quake turned 20 this year. I did a speed run of the first episode to celebrate.

Ageing's great really, especially online. The older you get the more often you get to say things like "I WAS RUSHING B BEFORE YOU WERE BORN SONNY!" and "I was geek BEFORE it was chic!".

Yeah, you know man to me there's something about making environments that touches me in a level my conscious still can't fully comprehend. Just the process of it all is so rewarding that when you're doing it hours do quite fucking literally blend into minutes in your mind, and having stumbled with the concept of flow for myself before even knowing about what it is, was life changing.

That's why 10 years ago, i wouldn't know what to tell you but for damn sure would have wanted to still be creating cool worlds.

The word immersion gets thrown around a lot in our circles but i guess that's actually really just it, creating immerse world's is one hell of a powerful thing to do. 500 years ago painters were honing the skills of even for a brief second or two take you to another world, by using a still image, nowadays we're doing the real deal. So i don't know what the fuck will happen in 10 years but i hope shit stays this exciting cos it sure feels we're just flipping the first page really.

I'm 29 in January. So close to the big 30 now D:

This is the first game I remember playing as a kid on my dads Atari with like a 5" black and white portable TV xD
