@konstantinosd Ah yes, I played this one on my Atari ST. I loved it so much, this feeling of being able to roam freely and discover stuff. I still remember the feeling when I found that tank and I could actually drive it away!
@sandor Almost magical, wasn't it? Sort of led you to imagine infinite possibilities.
@konstantinosd Absolutely. I think it was pivotal. By the way, the feeling of loneliness was later addressed with the advent of MMOs, whether that's a good thing or not ;-)
@sandor Which, frankly, is up for discussion!
