Ok guys, this one focuses more on the OLD MMOing. Bare with me newfags.

I ACCIDENTALLY THE WHOLE INTERWEB |
MMORPG's(Massively Mutliplayer Online Role Playing Game) have become quite popular since back in the day. Its something any gamer should try if they have not. I would always think about how awesome it would be playing with different people from around the world when SNES was still in its prime and only a couple years later was this possible. I started gaming with a SNES back in 1996. For all you n3wf@gz MMO's started in the late 90s. And yes t7p3in le1k d1z w@s kEwl back in the day so fuck u, but you would be a fucking retard to do that nowadays. Back in the 1990's i was thought it was not possible, but a man could dream right? but guess what? Shit was already possible! FUUUUU. It seemed kind of a crazy idea that wouldnt be accomplished for a very long time back when i was little, some futuristic shit you know? For me it was next to curing cancer or..living on mars.

This Game sucks. |
Back in 2002 i saw my cousin playing game and asked him what was it, sure enough it was the craphole that now is Tibia. I was amazed but confused. A game other then solitaire, minesweeper, etc and ZNES emulator on a computer? FUCK OUTA HERE. He explained to me the whole concept of the game and how he was playing with hundreds of people. I could not believe it, i told him to attack someone and the person ended up PKing him(Player killing), it took that much to believe him. Needless to say my cousin got OWNED. This game started back in 1997, when it was actually good. I later joined Runescape(Back then it was RS1). Keep in mind these games were TOP back in there prime. They were pretty fun in the early 2000s.
So if MMO's were possible back in the 90s, then what made them so non popular? Obviously back in the 90s barly anyone had a PC broke mothafuckass, but it wasnt that. It was that no one knew wtf a PC could do or what it was, shit, some people until this day need PC help. And those who had a PC did not even have a internet connection. You know how fucking shit it was to get disconnected when u have dial up? 5 damn mins just to connect and then get disconnected by your aunt who wants to ask you where your mom is at! FUCK.

I actually LOVED dial-up. It made the internet so sacred, you had to know what you were going to do BEFORE you got on the internet. Websites were passed by word of mouth. It limited the time you can spend on games, talking on AOL was the coolest shit evarrr. Trolling was the most easiest shit ever, you can seriously injure someone by telling them to press alt f+4(takes them off the internet with aol) being that it took forever to log back in. I actually miss all of that. Back when it took 3 hours per song, pages took forever to load, gaming time was limited, librarys were basically LAN partys to play cartoon network flash games on(new games every week shit was so cash). The only thing i guess i dont miss is the softcore porn.
I'll check this out but really now I don't think dial up is the way to go. America online was the best about it.
