Oh man, how could I forget the enduring classic, The Sky May Be?

Have you ever played Mock2, which is a glorious deliberate shitpost of a megawad?

43. I'm an Old on the internet now.

Here's my obligatory every year or two "Moo". ... Ooom. ...DAMMIT

Undyne from Undertale is my idol.

I started making music with trackers like Scream Tracker 3 and Impulse Tracker 2 back in 1996, and at some point I lost the first year or so worth of tracks that I did. I'm sure they'd be pretty dire, but I'd love to be able to revisit them. I also lost the base samples for a few of the tracks I created in Reason in 2002-2003 due to a defective IDE controller trashing my hard drives, so I can't bounce individual tracks or release better versions of those anymore.

Every time I try to replay Doom II these days, The Factory and Downtown absolutely kill my run. I just can't stand them. E3M2 Slough of Despair is a crapfest as well. And Administration Center in Evilution is putrid.

I've been playing modded Minecraft for many years now, but I finally fell victim to the Gregtech: New Horizons modpack, which is pretty much the apotheosis of complicated, grindy factory-building. I freaking love it and hate it at the same time. I'm in UV/UHV tier, which would be past-endgame in most other mods but is only just the beginning of the endgame in this one.

Estrogen and progesterone are the best drugs I've ever taken. Also, I make beer for a living if alcohol counts.

Re-re-re-re-replaying System Shock 2, after the System Shock remake whetted my appetite for it. The remake was good, but it made it even more obvious that System Shock 1 walked so that System Shock 2 could run.

Still working in the beer mines.

In the last few years, I've gone from plonking around in DAWs to falling down the modular synthesis rabbit hole. I've streamed with Earth Modular Society a few times, and even got to perform live at my local synthesizer shop Patchwerks recently :D I'm of course still releasing music at https://rocketmermaid.bandcamp.com .

In no order: Cave Story Undertale DOOM 2016 Final Fantasy 6 Megaman 3 The Guardian Legend Katamari Damacy Super Metroid Terranigma Starsky & Hutch (and anything else produced by Tim Follin, really) Shovel Knight (and anything else produced by Jake Kaufman, naturally) Almost anything from the Konami NES era - Contra, Castlevania, etc.

Psst, off-topic, but I'm glad you still exist and are still active!

I fully agree with this. As much as I enjoyed MM1 and MM2, I don't remember any single map from either one of them standing out much. As megawads, they're especially significant, but no individual map seems to have had the effect or impact of the ones on the list here.
