I remember how i was amazed when i got my first 3d card, a Voodoo 2. It was like having an arcade at home.
The 3dfx logo spining up when you launched a GLide game was something.
Unreal in particular was amazing, i remember as a kid just watching the lighting and the water.
At that time every light in a game had to be colored, just because it could be done. Small rooms with green, red and blue lights moving all over the place, so 90s.
I never had that "Wow" factor again, from there everything felt like incremental instead of revolutionary. How an absolute market leader disapeared in 2 years is incredible.
I think i only got the same wow factor the first time i tested a VR headset.
