Ah, memories.. You know, I seem to get overly emotional about things like this.. But whenever I decide to play the original BG, and hear the theme, it brings a tear to my eye. My life was so simpler back then, and the music takes me back to when I was a simple newbie to almost everything RP related except Dnd. I hadn't played online, hadn't played any games online or anything. It was just blissful ignorance.
I remember thinking that no game could ever top BG. Not SoA, not IWD, nothing. Then I played SoA. It blew my mind. The char dialogue, the rich plot, it was all beyond my expectations. I dunno. Maybe I'm getting overly sappy. Kleenex, anyone?
When I downloaded the ROM for FFVI, the music brought me WAY back. THOSE were the days, when I had no responsibilities. It's like, the music and games I've played through my life have left an impression on my mind, and bring me back to the stage of my life I was in.
Anyhoo, sorry for getting overly emotional on you people and getting off topic. It would be nice if I could play the entire BG saga all over again like it was new, but it's also nice to be a veteran player, I suppose.
