I've been playing .hack//G.U. since the remaster went on sale and I hadn't played it since like 2007 and it's increasingly hilarious to me now that I'm familiar with MMOs how The World would be a [i]terrible[/i] MMO if it were real. There's no system in place to opt in for PvP, it's just always active, there's no actual endgame raiding or any multiplayer content like instanced dungeons, there's no real crafting system and player shops consist of just selling items purchased from NPC vendors without any actual set market economy, and this is before getting into the out of game stuff and clear lack of genuine player account security. 


But the game is still charming.

Highly recommend Crosscode if you haven't already played it. It mixes the idea of a "virtual reality MMO" but with a twist: the mmo is actually set on a alien planet with human colonial settlers, and you are playing as what is essentially a hologram. The gameplay was inspired by Alundra, which was inspired by Zelda, though it has more of a action bent. But! The puzzles in the dungeons are some of the most difficult I've ever encountered, so that might be a plus for some people.

Decided on a whim to start Doom 3 again after realizing I have never gotten through the whole thing.  Loaded up the original with the ReDux mod and it looks gorgeous.

I can see where Doom fans and purists would have been turned away, but I think as an individual product this thing stands on its own very well.

Everyone I knew loved it at the time, thanks to the Co-op. I don't know if its as fun for multiple side by side playthroughs as the other dooms though.
