This world is incredibly beautiful
After spending several hours without electricity, literally, more than 8 hours without electricity, I kept thinking and a very interesting topic came to mind, the transition from playing in the simple browser, moving from CD and now downloading and installing them from online stores and platforms, without a doubt it has been an incredible advance, how difficult and simple it was years ago (of course, it was another time), compared to today, when everything is much simpler thanks to the internet, without the internet we would be nothing, in fact, without the internet none of you could be reading this, so appreciate it.
This post is 100% dedicated to PCs, I know that many years ago consoles dominated and PCs were simple to work tools, so, without including consoles in this post, what games were famous in your time for PC? That is a question that everyone can give themselves the task of remembering, thinking and answering, Hive has a huge community, and I think that Hive Gaming is one of the best and most active today, answering that question should not be difficult at all, The best thing is that we have users of all ages/periods, much better, since it gives diversity to the theme.
Before there was any type of game for PC, there was the internet, and obviously, there were also many games within it, I remember that I was a big fan of sitting on my dinosaur PC, yes, it was identical to the photo you see above, I've always liked games, at that time I had a DS and my sad GameBoy that my cousin smashed on the ground :(. So after I got bored I always opened the browser and typed "games", which was my key phrase, The next word could be from cooking to torture, the truth is that this was my innocent way of looking for online games.
And something always came out, I got tired of playing browser games because they were just too simple, but at my age, nothing was simple, everything was new and I loved it. I played too much a game called gun blood, it was like in the old west, two guys with a revolver, and a counter started from 1 to, and as soon as it finished, you had to aim and try to shoot the other opponent before he killed you, always I was a fan of cooking games, I cooked pizzas, hamburgers, hot dogs, ice cream, salads, etc. The truth is that those games were happiness for me.
Currently, I think that very few users play online, not even today's children do it thanks to consoles or PC games, it's sad, but it's all due to something, evolution. Evolving is something important, it is about closing cycles and starting new cycles, and that really applies to everything. Browser games always are and will be great, I was a fan of an incredible saga, I don't know if they ever went to the next level and decided to create a real game, but hey, I sat with my cousin and my sister all day to play Uphill Rush...
This game was the best, it's a 2D where you advance through a long list of levels and modes, a very difficult mode was to beat the opponent, they literally never made a mistake and we, well, always did our best, but it was almost never possible to win :(, this saga has more than 8 games, and absolutely all of us play them, extreme sports, water sports, skateboarding, and much more, without a doubt it is one of the sagas that I remember the most and that brought me the best moments.
Obviously, I also played the majestic Doom, did you think I would forget? I don't remember the date, but I was a little older and things were moving faster, I remember I was crazy to play Counter Strike 1.6 and literally forced my mom to buy me the game CD, but guess what? My mom asked about CS 1.6 and they gave her the best, a kind of orange box (of the time) with Half-Life and CS 1.6, I was almost about to cry with emotion and happiness hahaha. I loved it and that was one of my first interactions with real titles, and games outside the browser (ON PC, I repeat ON PC, I already had several consoles XD).
I think EVERYONE went through a transition like this unless you were born in 2010 XD, but we all lived in the era of non-stop browser gaming, and I quite liked playing there, I think that was where I discovered my love for computers since there was literally everything inside them XD. In fact, I remember that once I was playing a Christian browser game, I was a Christian ninja who killed bad guys, the truth is that there are too many random games XD, I don't know if that game is still alive, but WTF XD?
Conclusion:
So the real question is; At what point do we go to the next level without realizing it? I had never thought of things as I told them, and the technological progress that has existed up to now is incredible, now browser games are in a tailspin and real games are taking over the market. It's something like TV and Streaming platforms, by God, who watches TV in 2022? That's what I mean, who plays in the browser in 2022? It's amazing haha, leave me your opinion in the comments, I think it's a very beautiful topic to talk about. Thank you for reading this far!

Este mundo es increíblemente hermoso
Luego de estar varias horas sin luz, literal, más de 8 horas sin luz, no paraba de pensar y en eso se me vino un tema muy interesante a la cabeza, la transición de jugar en el simple navegador, pasar de CD y ahora descargar e instalarlos desde tiendas y plataformas online, sin duda que ha sido un avance increíble, lo difícil y simple que era hace años (claro, era otra época), a comparación de hoy en día, que todo se simplifica muchísimo más gracias al internet, sin el internet no fuésemos nada, de hecho, sin el internet ninguno de ustedes pudiera estar leyendo esto, así que valórenlo.
Este post va dedicado 100% a las PC, sé que hace muchos años las consolas dominaban y las PC's eran simples herramientas de trabajo, entonces, sin meter a las consolas en este post, qué juegos había famosos en tu época para PC? Esa es una pregunta que todos pueden darse la tarea de recordar, pensar y responder, Hive tiene una comunidad inmensa, pienso que la de Hive Gaming es una de las mejores y más activas de la actualidad, responder esa pregunta no debería ser nada difícil, lo mejor es que tenemos usuarios de todas las edades/épocas, mucho mejor, ya que le da diversidad al tema.
Antes de existir cualquier tipo de juego para PC, existió el internet, y obviamente muchísimos juegos también había dentro de él, recuerdo que yo era muy fan de sentarme en mi PC de dinosaurio, que sí, era idéntica a la foto que ven arriba, siempre me han gustado los juegos, en ese momento tenía DS y mi triste GameBoy que mi primo reventó contra el suelo :(. Entonces, luego de aburrirme, siempre abría el navegador y escribía "juegos de", esa era mi frase clave, la siguiente palabra podía ser desde cocina, hasta tortura, la verdad es que esa era mi inocente forma de buscar juegos online.
Y siempre salía algo, yo me cansé de jugar juegos de navegador porque simplemente eran muy simples, pero, a mi edad, nada era simple, todo era novedoso y me encantaba. Yo jugué demasiado un juego llamado sangre de arma, era como en el viejo oste, dos tipos con revolver, y empezaba un contador del 1 al, apenas terminaba, debías apuntar e intentar dispararle al otro contrincante antes que él te matase a ti, siempre fui fan de juegos de cocina, cocinaba pizzas, hamburguesas, hot dogs, helados, ensaladas, etc. La verdad es que esos juegos eran felicidad para mí.
Actualmente, creo que muy pocos usuarios juegan online, ni siquiera niños de hoy en día lo hacen gracias a las consolas o los juegos en la PC, es triste, pero todo se debe a algo, la evolución. Evolucionar es algo importante, se trata de cerrar ciclos y empezar nuevos ciclos, y eso aplica realmente para todo. Los juegos de navegador siempre son y serán geniales, yo fui fan a una saga increíble, que desconozco si alguna vez pasaron al siguiente nivel y decidieron crear un juego real, pero bueno, me sentaba con mi primo y mi hermana todo el día a jugar Uphill Rush...
Este juego era lo máximo, es un 2D en dónde vas avanzando por una larga lista de niveles y modos, un modo muy difícil era batir al contrincante, literalmente nunca se equivocaban y nosotros, pues, siempre hacíamos nuestro mejor intento, pero casi nunca era posible ganar :(, esta saga cuenta con más de 8 juegos, y absolutamente todos los jugamos, deportes extremos, deportes acuáticos, skate, y mucho más, sin duda es una de las sagas que más recuerdo y que mejores momentos me trajo.
Obviamente también jugué el majestuoso Doom, pensaron que me olvidaría? No recuerdo la fecha, pero ya era un poco más grande y todo avanzaba con mayor rapidez, recuerdo que estaba loco por jugar Counter Strike 1.6 y literalmente obligué a mi mamá a comprarme el CD del juego, pero adivinen qué? Mi mamá preguntó por CS 1.6 y le entregaron lo mejor, una especie de orange box (de la época) con Half Life y CS 1.6, yo estaba casi a punto de llorar de la emoción y felicidad hahaha. Me encantó y esa fue una de mis primeras interacciones con títulos reales, juegos fuera del navegador (EN PC, repito EN PC, yo ya tenía varias consolas XD).
Creo que TODOS pasamos por una transición así, a menos que hayas nacido en el año 2010 XD, pero todos vivimos la época de jugar en el navegador sin parar, y me gustaba bastante jugar allí, creo que ahí fue dónde descubrí mi amor por las computadoras, ya que había de todo literalmente dentro de ellas XD. De hecho, recuerdo que una vez estaba jugando un juego de navegador cristiano, era un ninja cristiano que mataba a los malos, la verdad es que existen demasiados juegos random XD, desconozco si aún sigue vivo ese juego, pero WTF XD?
Conclusión:
Entonces, la verdadera pregunta es; ¿En qué momento pasamos al siguiente nivel sin darnos cuenta? Yo nunca había pensado las cosas así como se las dije, y es increíble el avance tecnológico que ha existido hasta los momentos, ahora los juegos de navegador van en picada y los reales juegos se apoderan del mercado. Es algo así como la TV y las plataformas de Streaming, por dios, quién ve TV en 2022? A eso mismo me refiero, quién juega en el navegador en 2022? Es increíble jaja, déjame tu opinión en los comentarios, creo que es un tema muy hermoso de hablar. ¡Gracias por leer hasta aquí!

QUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, nojodas wtf, yo era tan imbécil que no sabiaaaaaaaaaaaaa me vine a entrar asi :C
Browser-based games, in my opinion, are a relic of the past. I first started using a PC for entertainment purposes back in 1996 and I loved my old Apogee games like Monster Bash and Wacky Wheels, and there was Jazz Jackrabbit which my uncle introduced me too and I loved it. I used to open Microsoft Encyclopedia Encarta and play the games hidden inside that. 😆
Even back then I didn't really play browser based games. I loved Neopets in the early 2000's. And there was something called Kings of Chaos and Utopia. Those were the only browser-based games I played. I dabbled in Facebook Games for maybe half a year before I got bored of them. 😆
Splinterlands was the first "recent" browser based game I played... and I stopped playing it because it was an automated card game you play in a browser. WoooOOoooOooo, riveting. I guess I'm still playing Rising Star, but I wouldn't really consider that a game, to be honest. Set mission and go. ~ Can't wait for "real" games to become entwined with our blockchain. xD
Oh sorry for replying late XD, I had a problem with my connection. And yes, you are right, they are completely a relic, in fact, there are still millions of people hooked on browser games, only there will come a point where they will cease to exist, or so I think.
Facebook games were very good, I really still don't understand why they disappeared :( I was very happy hahaha.
