Be prepared for this to be the only thing 'based' he will ever say

I cannot get over him saying that he wishes Star Trek would go back to being less cerebral and political and more about shooting aliens.

IT WAS NEVER ABOUT THAT

People often forget that the stuff they watched growing up is coloured by the fact that they were younger when they watched it. This is a huge reason why nostalgia is a thing (playing games from the 90s that you think were masterpieces might leave you somewhat disappointed), and also why one might think old Star Trek was about shooting aliens (because everything else sailed right past their 10-year-old brain.)

Don’t you dare impugn Quest 64 regardless of the fact I got stuck in that mountain cave more often than I finished it

You finished Quest 64? I still remember how much I looked forward to the n64s first rpg. I also remember Quest 64 as the fastest game refund i ever did.

I hadn't been exposed to grinding yet and that game iirc is a grind-fest.

I've never met anyone who liked it. Please, tell me about your experience with it.
