Warhammer for free
Warhammer 40.000: Rites of War came out in 1999, a year that is still remembered by many as the last era of innovative video games. The entertainment space truly boomed in the 90s, and no other era has managed to catch or replicate the soul that lots of things had back then. Some small groups of people may chalk it up to nostalgia, but it was a fact that during the 90s, creativity was unbound and not tied to the whims of the corporate elite that poisons our lives.
Many fail to see this, since they are still young and grew up in online only titles, they really missed out on the best era of this medium. Graphics aren’t everything, and in fact, pre-rendered art styles hit different than full 3d environments. While some call low resolution, many call it different and innovative, as it was an amazing way to optimize games back then, while still looking marvelous.
The art of optimization is gone, but people are slowly realizing that older games were better anyways. So when the chance is still prime, why not engage with some retro fun by grabbing a free gift that you get to own?
