The internet only helps in limited ways. my career in IT is largely down to the fact I can do it all myself without much need for others.
I’m coming to terms that I’ve basically lived a false life because of this. If I had had more friends and resources to lean on growing up I would have gone into construction, heavy equipment, or farming.
I’m trying to change that now. But, I look around and see more clearly that the ones who have success in these trades have a good social bond with those around them. I’ve never known how to do that. Really lacked the confidence when I was younger. Might be time to throw myself in the deep end and try anew.
I wish I could go back and play it again for the first time. It was one of the first games I played after getting my first voodoo card. It felt like I was experiencing the bleeding edge of tech.
Thinking about it, i can’t remeber a time in the last decade that a game made me feel that way. Crysis was probably the last time.
More on topic, yes everyone should own it. I think I bought a steam or GOG bundle and got all the doom and quake games for like $5-$10 or something like that.
