The Escapist Nostalgia thread

[Goldeneye1989]

Lets go on a trip down Memory lane guys, remember the great stuff that's happened here

Remember when
We didn't know why Lund Had a chainsaw in the boot of his car
or when you could see "No other possible outcome?"

Or when
Wielding two Wheels provided no armor bonuses?

Or when Yahtzee in the same review stated that he actually could find no faults with anything from the game.... twice. (He had to nitpick to find a single fault)


Seeing a video called "Meatshroom"

what about you guys?

Probably my favorite thing that might be considered old school on here would be Unforgotten Realms. That was some of the best stuff I have ever watched.

 

[Genixma]

Dice Lord battle.
Yahtzee's Year End Review.
Apocalypse Lane episodes.
There Will Be Brawl Epicsodes.

Oh the nostalgia is flowing back.

 

[The Last Nomad]

Probably my favorite thing that might be considered old school on here would be Unforgotten Realms. That was some of the best stuff I have ever watched.

Probably my favourite thing ever on the escapist, although I felt it lost its way after the first season. But the First season was pure gold.

The slightly newer Apocalypse Lane was almost as good too.

As far as nostalgia about threads and the community goes, things have gotten a lot worse since my favourite User Group was deleted (Damn you mods, we were good people) and the disappearance of Furburt (Which may have been related to the deletion of said group).

Doomsday Arcade.

*sigh* The era of good web series on the Escapist is long past. Now it's all about serious subjects and what amount to podcasts. I miss Unforgotten Realms and Doomsday Arcade. I miss them a lot.

Rest in peace, Sir Schmoopy of Awesometon. Rest in peace, Lazer Cat. Rest in peace, Kirby...and please remain at rest for a good, long time.

 

[Zorak the Mantis]

ah yes, Unforgotten Realms

 

[Anarchemitis]

I miss the official Escapist Election. Long live President Mobius!

 

[Hero in a half shell]

Oh yes, and homicidal vultures with manicures,

and mentally challenged crime-solving rank 11 Paladins.

And I can even remember the very first time I died,

Oh, and the first time I realised that Graham Stark probably isn't his real name, ("Wow, that's the same second name as Iron Man, what are the chanc... ...oh wait, there's no way that's a coincidence.")

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

You just reminded me that I should go rewatch "There Will be Brawl" again.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

I can name several individuals who have since been banned or vanished.

Demented Teddy, Furburt, Max the Reaper, Pararaptor, Aylaine...

Or the day before CAPTCHAs, those were nice days...

I remember PubClub and the Advice Forum suddenly showing up one day.
