"Netrek is a MOBA."

You know those anime/video game soundtracks where the cover art has the characters jamming out on modern rock'n'roll instruments?

We had DECstations and that puckmouse when I was in college. We lost game privileges when one numbnut broke thirteen (13) of them in a violent rage one weekend because we kept blowing him up over and over in Netrek.

Sore topic. Berkeley turned off the 300bps banks like 2 weeks before I got my acoustic coupler.
So I had to go to the labs in person. Where my friend whom I subsequently dropped for turning into a religious freak MAGA chud showed me Netrek, which fucked my GPA but got me into an IT career...

Netrek BLEW MY MIND.

Netrek BLEW MY MIND.
Back in the early 1990s, the UVic Fine Arts computer lab had Sun SPARC workstations, incredibly advanced tech at the time. And so I used it to play Netrek (the guy in the back corner of the lab built a company he eventually sold to IBM) youtu.be/UYTfVMNx4-8?...

Yeah, this "citation needed" is doing good work. :-)

Quoteskeet with a game that's nostalgic for you
Working on the 5th(?) replacement display for the games themed RetroFest in Cambridge next month.
So my last best hope for a display, my Babylon 5 as it were, is a couple of Sun workstations with xpilot, netrek & maybe Quake & Quake II on them.
Much installing & upgrading today. Just like work.

First multiplayer internet game, Netrek. I was in the same cluster as several others players. Hearing one say:
"Oh, give it up! You're in a scout, I'm in a battleship, there's no way you're going to--Oops."
