Tbh guys games are so much better these days

They were cousins. I had no clue until I read about it a few yeasr back.

Dont be on about back then

Let's talk about today

@Cody not EA games

Starting bids?

hmm ...

wait, hold ont

I like retro games a lot

I like reading the source code of some of them.

I've not delved into old games' source code

might be a cool experience

@Undead Mockingbird hitler and Mosley where cousins?

Sounds boring af

Yes, it is. It's like learning years later how all your favorite games worked on the inside, years later.

It's kind of like digging up a loved on from the graveyard and performing an autopsy.

KInd of.

Why delve into codes, you could actually play a game instead

Just better, of course.

Because it's interesting

It's amazing to see how it all worked in the background.

TO understand BSP, binary partitioning of space, how to build an engine, to tinker with it, etc.

Yeah, I guess it probably looked better than them 4 bit graphics too

It's interesting how all the basics pretty much still apply to modern engines.

The approach to engine design, collision detection, etc. hasn't change that drastically.

And, of course, you can do hilarious stuff, like mess with the AI or physics.

Sounds boring

Play the game instead

Well, somebody in the world has to find it interesting enough to build it.

I don't actually play many games anymore.

I find it much more satisfying to create.

@Undead Mockingbird the unreal engine is one of the coolest engines

Building games in Unity is really like a game itself.

It's super quick and easy to create really wacky things.

thank you `cp -ruv`

my new favorite command

Sometimes I have a crazy idea, I see what it would be like, and I sit down and program it in Unity for an hour or so.

I put it online, have a good laugh, and move on.

I do that with meme sites
