eobetSecond Reality by Future Crew is now 30 years old. It was released at the second Assembly party in Finland (which about 1500 people attended) and it became the definite #DOS demo of its day, putting the PC firmly on the #demoscene map! The people behind it went on to found 3dMark, Bugbear and Remedy.
Louis@eobet first demo I saw. Got me into the scene, indirectly getting me into tracking

@eobet @SharkaBytes I haven’t watched it in a while but the music comes up a bit. Half of it is on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/track/5DlJn7XApzEvsQwQmOFxSx?si=USK-6C25T9q9Uyw0_CYQBg&context=spotify%3Aartist%3A4HnrGSS1qecUcOcjMHRFwx
Harry Sintonen@eobet I was there among those people. This really opened my eyes to the fact that PC scene actually would be something to take more seriously (at the time there was this stupid elitism among us #Amiga guys).
Also, I suddenly feel very old. 😆 Assembly next week will be my 30th year visiting demoparties.
Pixel Purrito@eobet also, reminder that the national Finnish TV (YLE) considered it worth it to produce a segment about this particular demoscene production: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIIBRr31DIU

abadidea@eobet @gsuberland I guess it’s funny that I’m way more impressed by the wobbly translucent polyhedron than anything else even though the tie fighter navigating city space is probably the most complicated of these
Fossie@eobet I loved this demo sooo much, the graphics and the gravis ultrasound soundtrack were really awesome, I've seen it many many times!
30 years, unbelievable how time goes 😱

I still remember seeing it the first time. I was speechless.
I ran it on my DX-50 with a Gravis Ultrasound. Soo impressive.
I still listen to the music of the demo regularly (and sometimes watch it on YT).
Marcel Stritzelberger@eobet a true masterpiece!
