Star Trek DS9. So much good character development, plus all sorts of twists and turns

Damn. Really? I guess I’m lucky. I specifically avoided watching Deep Space 9 as a kid because TNG was on.

I’ll live your dream for your buddy; I heard the show’s about a non-moving ship, which still has a captain for some reason, Benjamin Sisko or something

For a game it has to be Outer Wilds…

And please do yourself a favor and play it the one time you’re allowed in this lifetime if you’ve not yet done it, as you can.

My answer too.

And also for the benefit of anyone who’s just played the base game: the DLC is basically a sequel, and I found it even more impactful than the base game!

I don’t know, I’d be worried if I did that then it wouldn’t hit the same for me the second time around. Who am I now compared to then? What state of mind am I in? I mean who knows how much a song or a a movie resonates with you has to do with where you are at that time?

Fucking hell I wasn’t prepared for the existential questions when I entered this thread.

100% there are songs and music that I adore that were heavily attached to who I was at the time, that, although I still adore, would not have the same impact now. Green day, RHCP, imagine dragons, all those are from different key times in my life that just would not resonate the same with level of impact today.

I would most definitely lose that value if I eternal sumshined it

Yeah I was thinking something similar. The first Game that came into my head was “Gothic” which I have played since forever (since ive been a little kid) and took me forever to beat for the first time. I don’t know if I would even start playing it today if I didn’t know and love it already. From my perspective today the graphics are outdated and the controls are clunky but it has such a unique heart.

This post reminds me of a friend of mine who likes a song so much, he will only listen to it twice a year, once on New Year’s and once on his birthday. He says each time is like the first time because “the pathways stay fresh”. He’s been consistent for at least 7 years.

If you’re curious: Toccata - OVERWERK

Very understandable that song is awesome

I basically listened to it on loop for a week and ruined the effect

Sounds like songs from the game “The Messenger”.

Great game and great music.
