Been away from a game/MMO/FPS/Etc. for FOREVER and after weeks or months or even years and come back and the feels hit you nice and hard?

Personally, I started RPing in GW2 again and gah...the Ossan District tavern. The BCM people still running around. The beautiful Sylvari...I nearly died! @.@

The games that gave me major nostalgia feels are nothing but memories now, I can't go back because they're gone for good and no private servers exist (PSO ones are still kicking but its not the same)

I used to revisit Phantasy Star Universe every now and then prior to the PC/PS2 shutdown. I miss Neudaiz I used to spend hours roleplaying with friends there.

...or lobby shenanigans, those were good times.. This is the only PSU screenshot I have on this computer. That guy on the left has been my friend 5ever even though we haven't played a game together since PSU.

Ughhhhh I'm feeling the nostalgia hard. RP runs through the Mizuraki conservation district, derping around at the hot springs, shoutspam at the entrance to White Beast.

Oh god i loved PSO and PSU. I was so sad when they shut down the PC/PS2 server. I tried to play on Xbox after but it just wasn't the same Sad

While I could go back to Bards Tale and Gold Box DnD, which we RPed over, the game that still holds my heart is SWTOR, but I just don't feel it when I am there any more.

Nebula, gets drugged by an Imperial Agent.. it did not end well for her.

PSU, PSP1 + 2 and infinity are my most favorites.

PSO2 is also amazing. Everything here is all nostalgia to me.


My nostalgia will always be Starcraft.  Just because.

I've never been much of a returner, when I leave a game it tends to be for good. I do look through my old screenshots at times though, and stuff like things from my WoW-time (Where I started to RP some 6 years ago) always cause me the strongest nostalgia. Not because of the game, but because of the people I was around at the time. For all I know, they have spread like the wind and I have probably run into some since without realizing, and with people gone I have no reason to look into returning. Rather I am more fond of moving to someplace new and getting a fresh start. I was a really obnoxious teenager 6 years ago as well so it's probably for the better in the end :p 
Some people from my time there I still am in contact with, but it is maybe one or two. 

I also sometimes really wish I could visit things like Rubies of Eventide again, an old free to play mmorpg that I played before I started WoW, we're talking like a seriously old game with nothing to show for graphics and turn-based combat. But it was a very unique experience in terms of the players that were there and just how the setting was. If you died you lost your items or alternatively had to wait for someone to come and /carry/ you to a temple, which would slow them down because you're carrying a corpse. And I guess there's just something very nice and community bonding about someone taking 30 mins out of their life to come save your sorry little behind because you challenged a cat twice the size of yourself Smile I miss that kind of stuff because I don't think I'll ever experience it again.

I played City of Heroes intensely for a year or two, and was pretty heavily involved in RP there.  I miss it so much.  Of course, it's full-on gone now.  RIP.

People have forgotten this truth. But you mustn't forget it. You become responsible forever for what you have tamed.

I used to play Eve Online really heavily. My main character, Shintoko Akahoshi, spent an awful lot of time blowing up other spaceships.

[Image: ShinAvatarBig2.png]

A good number of these were in her trusty Taranis interceptor. It's flimsy, it's weak, it's fast, and it hits really hard. I loved these ships, and I bought them by the pallet!

[Image: taranis.jpg]

But for a few glorious months, it was possibly to run both a frigate-sized microwarp drive and a cruiser-sized afterburner (don't worry if this is meaningless to you, it should be!), with the proper skills, in a Punisher frigate. The Punisher was renown for being modestly hard hitting, tough, slow, and powerful. Just powerful enough for those two drive extras, making it a very fast Punisher:

I even made a video about it, sort of a ha-ha only-serious sales pitch for the frigate nobody loved.

Everquest 2 used to soak up much of my life and will always hold my heart. So much really that I still buy every expansion and revisit frequently, even though next to noone I know still plays.... which is very sad.

I'm admittedly fairly new to the world of MMORPG's... so I have to say, all my nostalgia lies in a certain TERA Online:

I played this game for about two years since the open beta. Lots of fun times, lots of RP, lots of friends, lots of memories. ;_; TERA still has my heart.

I played this game for about two years since the open beta. Lots of fun times, lots of RP, lots of friends, lots of memories. ;_; TERA still has my heart.

TERA wasn't my first MMO (that would be Mabinogi), but it was my first experience RPing in one. Dr. Jana was a very fun character and has definitely influenced my RP to the point that I never really let go of playing her, making my FFXIV character's concept being a younger version of her. How could I not, after playing such a charming lady doctor, world traveler, mad scientist, ecoterrorist, and winner of the prestigious Most #Based Cat award for 2012?

I even had a story telling event that I hosted on the server. It was pretty popular for a time.

Jana was supposed to end up getting killed off, but was saved by the power of friendship. She's officially been retired as an RP character since TERA doesn't have a community conducive to making a big plotline or story, but I like to think Jana's retired to the tropics, sipping margaritas instead of drinking herself unconscious and watching Elin dance-offs instead of forcing them into experiments. I still visit my PvE-focused friends from time to time to chitchat IC.
