HALO LAN in the barracks back in ‘01 and ‘02 brings back some nostalgia

[–] Grofit@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I was/am kinda hoping that with the slow adoption of VR/AR that we can kinda bring hanging out on the couch taking turns on games together.

There are apps like Big Screen that already let you share a screen together and hang out, but not easily play games and you can't share controls. EmuVR let's you share controls and hang out in a room with people but only retro games via retroarch.

If we could get a mix of the two where I could just put on my headset/glasses (in the future) join my friends room and we both kinda exist in each other's real life room via AR sharing screens it would be pretty good.

This is probably like a decade away, but for those of us with IRL friends who have moved really far away so hanging out in person frequently isn't an option, it could be a ray of hope.

Would still rather just meet up and crash over at one of our places with takeaway pizza taking turns on Resident Evil 1 until 3am.

Eh, I've found highs just as good in many other games since then. Currently getting them in Warframe, started playing a couple of months ago and having an absolute blast. You'll never find the exact same "high" from something in anything else, let those moments be and welcome new ones. You have that memory, it'll never go away and you'll always be able to get some of that feeling from the memory itself.
It's the same with love, some people spend their whole lives trying to find a specific kind they once had, and by doing so they push away all the new kinds that are able to become just as strong and important.

Went to vocational school after high school because I didn't want to do 13th and 14th grade. The program designation was "electronics" but the back half was loaded with CS. The networking classroom split time between the day and night courses... in the days before user profiles. It was a shitshow. The night folks did not take kindly to our NUKEM workgroup setup, but it made for fun lunch breaks.
