Good news, everyone, I wrote a blog post about game "golden ages". Once again, something I've been percolating in my head for a long time:

The decline of video game golden ages

On featuritis in video game genres.

I think we finally got a spiritual successor for Heroes of Might and Magic 3 (HoMM3) with HoMM: Olden Era.

Although still in "early access" for me, it has been the first time in years (decades?) that I played something similar to the old good one.

Lots of failed attempts in the past (Song of Conquest got very close), the game has a simple formula, yet small details can break it.

@miquel that sounds fantastic, thanks for the tip!
