Yeah me too it's 4AM where I am I need to call it a night

We need to find a way to bring Dr. Strangelove back. We need our org chat recaps

god rogeg was such a fucking weirdo lmfao

I just realized I've been going through old posts for two hours now

Going through MGSF on the wayback machine can suck you in for hours. Got several org buttons and the banners that way. Saw myself logged in. Saw others that have since left like GJV, OS., and Skywalker. Saw other names I'd forgotten about.

I've had insanely formative moments here; music, films, games, perspectives. I owe a lot of who I am to MGSF, to you folks.

Not to continue being morbid but to echo what you said about how important MGSF was/is to me and all of us: I made sure my fiancee knows to inform you all just in case something happens in the future.

He gave me writing advice that I still think of to this day

he thought nothing of me except being a very annoying kid that he had to constantly reprimand, but it was tough nonetheless.

Yeah I found his health issues thread, was very hard to read

It's really tough to overstate just how important a lot of you were to me

seeing everyone's old signatures, avatars, posts. I see things and I think "hey, I remember this exact moment"

"Happy Birthday Gary"

I was just on the wayback machine looking through the old forums, almost cried

and definitely more accessible in the modern day than MG1; way tighter, less arcade-y

yeah it's crazy what a straight line can be drawn from MG2 to MGS1

that's a fun coincedence, I was pissed because PS2 Subsistence screwed my saves so I tried to find my phys copy of HD Collection, gave up, sourced it from Internet Archive, and have been messing around with MG1 and 2 a bit

The MGS3 included in the HD collection also has MG2 in it

tr0nic I'm playing MGS2 with RPCS3 on the HD Collection

MG1 is eh though
