@:back_from_gab: :musashi_berseker: :abigail_willia... many of the nostalgic feelings come from the time you had and the experiences you had when you first played a particular game.
I will never re-experience the joy I felt playing Mario 64 and learning how to deal with the N-64 contoller and gaining mastery over the game, the console and the controller.
I will never have that feeling again because I am no longer experience anything new and I am not the innocent and ignorant kid I was back then.
I've realized I have become quite good in Command & Conquer games now that I am way older than when I first played them however the feelings are not there, still enjoy the game but I can never laugh the same way looking at engineers bursting in flames the same way, having electrocuted doggies and having cruisers tearing civilians apart.
You have to understand that certaing things were cool and amazing because of what they made us feel and what we learned in the time we experienced it. We changed and things will never be the same and cannot be the same, the more you accept this, the more you will enjoy your nostalgic games.
With Age of Empires 2 I don't feel nostalgic at all, the game is pretty much in my present.
