I got the master sword in TotK around release and wasn't spoiled on the context of it. It was really cool.

I died sooooo many times to the zombies in the castle town.

The ReDeads? Wooden faced shamblers that hump you to death?

Star Control 2 on the 3DO, playing that before I'd seen a PlayStation, was this for me.

And later, FF7 was this for me.

Me with Bioshock when you descend for the first time with Andrew Ryan introducing rapture.

But tbf, imo that’s a modern game as in I don’t see much difference between that and the latest AAA single player game.

It’s nearly 20 years old now bro.

But you know what? I swear it just came out.

I'm not entirely sure what scene I would've said had me similar when I could still more surely remember those first years. Possibly a game I've forgotten since. Maybe one of the Bionicle Mata Nui Games or some other big online game. Or Imperium Galactica 2.

But a moment that will always stick with me is from the first Homeworld game: when you return from your first hyperspace voyage. That entire game was epic, including the intro sequence, but it's that sequence that I think can stand forever as a masterpiece.
