Not for me.
Grade School: Doom 2, Quake, Warcraft 2, Diablo, Starcraft, Red Alert, HOMM 1-3, Total Annihilation
Jr High - High School: Tribes (started playing it late), Warcraft 3 / DOTA, Diablo 2, Counter-Strike, Team Fortress Classic, World Of Warcraft (beta through WOTLK)
College: Team Fortress 2, Heroes Of Newerth, League of Legends
Post-college: Civilization 5, DOTA 2, Path of Exile
I consider all of these periods equally great/golden. The number of games in each period varies, but I don't consider that a factor.
I could go back and play any of these games and enjoy them today, assuming compatibility issues are dealt with and there are servers with players for the multiplayer-focused titles (sadly not the case for Tribes, and I think HON is dead too).
I played Diablo 1 for the first time in nearly nineteen years last night on diabloweb, and it's aged incredibly well. The atmosphere is just as immersive as it was back in my childhood. I was surprised to not feel nostalgic. Instead, I was reminded of how incredibly disappointing Diablo 3 was.
I'm pretty gamed out now. Lately I only really play MTG Arena. The current Battle Royale era is the first major gaming phase I've opted out of entirely. I haven't played DOTA2 in nearly a year after playing at least one MOBA game near-daily between 2004 and 2018.
I'm tempted to try WoW Classic, but I feel like I'll either be unable to play more than a few hours before losing all interest, or it will completely take over my life again

- EdwardDiego 7y agoIn terms of the ARPGs I can strongly recommend Grim Dawn, a Kickstarted game built by former members of the Titanquest dev team.
