Honestly there needs to be some legislation requiring gaming companies to release the server software if they decide to retire the game.
Man I really miss the 90's where private servers were how things were done.
In the 90s there were still company-owned servers for certain games such as MMORPGs like Ultima Online; reversers rebuilding servers from ground up helped keep the community alive for all those old addicts. Kal Ort Por
A couple years ago. It was pretty mid.
Worst Baldur's Gate; but a pretty decent Diablo clone.
Edit: Oh this is the newer one that came out in 2021... IDK about that one. I was thinking the original Dark Alliance.
The OG Dark Alliance was my jam back when it first released. Sunk so many hours into it and its sequel (with Dritz). I can hear the song from the tavern in my head as I type. Now I’ve gotta see if I can emulate it somehow.
They're available on GOG and Steam, fyi.
I've been waiting for this to ever be cheap enough. I guess good riddance.
