It is gonna suck.
It IS an old game.
Skyrim is older now than Half Life 1 was when Skyrim first released.
Skyrim is older now than Tetris was when Half Life 1 first released.
I'm not old, you're old!
Thanks to the innovation and progress happening in Bethesda, it's also a new game!
I'm playing Neverwinter Nights right now T_T
I thought AOL took down the server
I mean the Bioware RPG.
Nothing wrong with that, and you have the sequel to look forward to!
Come on, it came out 11/11/11, that was like 3 years ago right?
Oh my sweet ~~summer~~ winter ~~child~~ geezer.
Yes but more that that, not just old games should be on GoG, all offline games should be on GoG.
Pretty much all DRM free games are on GoG no matter the age.
Exactly. Don’t need DRM unless multiplayer.
Multiplayer games also don't need DRM
I would say it’s essential for multiplayer games with servers because I wouldn’t want to host my games for free if I were a business and P2P connectivity is more hackable.
I'm looking forward to checking out the re-make that's about to drop of one of my old favorite games. Lunar: Silver Star Story. I still have my PS1 version.
They're remaking Lunar?
I hope they remaster Wings (the intro song).
I kind of used the wrong word, really. They aren't doing so much as they did with FF7. It's more like just a re-master. It'll run in wide-screen, have some qol improvements for inventory, upscale graphics, lots of music, audio, and cutscene improvements, and some other little stuff, as well as retro mode that will make it all look and sound and appear just like it was 30 years ago.
I've been waiting for its release for like 6 months, but it actually drops just next week on ps4/ps5, pc, switch, and xbone.
Even though I've been waiting, I'm not sure if I'll get it next week right away or not. They're releasing physical copies on amazon for $55, but the digital copy is still $50. I'm a PC gamer, so I'll probably wait until that price gap is bigger if I'm only going to have a digital copy.
Also, it's Lunar 1 and 2 bundled together, so two classics.
When I was really getting into PC gaming in 2003 a game from 14 years before would have been released in 1989. Yes, I'd say that was old!
Morrowind to Oblivion to Skyrim was 9 years TOTAL. (2002, 2006, 2011)
Hell the first Elder Scrolls game Arena is only 17 years before Skyrim.
Damn, there might be as much time between V and VI as between I and V.
I don't like how time works.
2011 was 14 years ago, the game is more than half my age x3
Do you often formulate math problems spontaneously?
Maybe he’s french.
Is that a French stereotype I am not aware of?
Because, I've got a bit of experience in teaching math, and I wish most kids in that class could speak math naturally.
They count very weird. For example to say 87 in french you say four twenties seven (quatre vingt sept) 92 in french is four twenties twelve (quatre vingt douze).
Don't ask the danish how they say 92
Oh my lord, that is even worse!
I lucked out living in a place with a completely logical numbering system thankfully :3.. even english is slightly weird with 11 and 12 not following the -teen pattern (guessing a holdover for using dozens/base12)
Eleven and twelve still do kinda follow base 10 rules. They literally mean “one left” (ain-lif) and “two left” (twa-lif) with the “over ten” being implied.
I'm not quite sure why we have different words for those two, though. Maybe when we added the 'teens, those two just sounded better than firsteen and seconteen?
Oh, it's about that. It's just leftover from an old base 20 counting system really. Kind of like how time is still using base 60 (though it's kinda convenient for dividing), stuff like that.
Really, English is not completely safe from that. Ask yourself why eleven to nineteen instead of, you know, ten-one, ten-two...
Dude, you can't just go around and say stuff like that

If they ship it without DRM, they could label literally anything an “Old Game” and that’d be fine by me.
Let's put it like this- Skyrim is as old now as Final Fantasy VII was when it came out. If you had asked me then if Final Fantasy VII was an old game when Skyrim came out, I'd have said yeah.
The term "classic" would suit it better.
"Retro" would also work, given that it was released 2 generations ago
