Some people are, well, older than others. Yet, they enjoy gaming as much as the next 14 year old who is blasting terrible music directly into their mic and screaming at everyone for either cheating or being a noob. These older, yet still important gamers may slightly distrust digital versions of games, and hell, maybe they flat out refuse to get with the times and go straight digital, instead purchasing actual, physical copies of things at actual, physical stores, then squealing and seething when their shit roommates can't put a disc back into a case, like cases were just invented.
I may or may not be one of these people.
Alright, fine, I am.
Myself and people like me will be pleased to hear that physical copies of The Long Dark arrive in stores today, so we can go buy one, pop the disc in, then still spend two hours downloading updates and completing installation. If you are in the dark about the game (see what I did there?), here's a description.
"Imagine the lights go out, never to return. Bright aurora flare across the sky, and all humanity’s technological might is laid to waste, neutralized in a kind of quiet apocalypse. Everything that has shielded humanity from the disinterested power of Mother Nature is suddenly wrenched from us, dropping us a few links down the food chain. Food and water are scarce. The roads are no longer safe. And winter approaches… Welcome to The Long Dark —an immersive survival simulation set in the aftermath of a geomagnetic disaster. Experience a unique first-person survival simulation that will force you to think and push you to your limits with its thought-provoking gameplay."
