 Quake III is still unbeaten as a multiplayer game imo. 
 Agreed. Edged out over Unreal Tournament 
 Holy shit, this is so true. 
 Single player always online games are cringe. Stopped buying Hitman games because of this. 
 ? You don’t need to be online to play hitman. I just got messages that the scores at the end of the games will be skipped. 
 Ha! 
 What if a game had an additional computational cost via POW based on its code complexity. The benefits of this added cost would be:

- verifiability of actions by any party 
- necessarily highly optimized code
- protocol enforcement of game rules by participants rather than central enforcement of game rules
- increased Sybil resistance
- actions could be scaled by thermodynamic output, turning hardware and code efficiency into advantages in gameplay where appropriate

Food for thought 🤔 #cyberspace

Modern Gaming™️

To be fair though, 2023 is the best year for video games in a very long time. Tons of bangers coming out.
