Let's show how old we all are here. :P

I think the first game I ever played online was the first Dungeon Siege on pc.
The first, and only, console game I ever played online was Phantasy Star Online on the old Dreamcast. I miss my DC. Best games on that thing.

Everquest- chocolate. I still remember the pain.

Edit: Looks like I forgot about Starcraft and Diablo. Guess that makes me officially senile.

First online game? Neopets and runescape.

I found both at about the same time, can't remember which was first. I still play them on and off occasionally for the nostalgia and general game.

I miss my childhood.

I distinctly remember neopets in the early 2000s had gruesome celebrity massacre halloween or something like that.
but then they toned it way down the following year(s) afterwards.

welllll i see you got minion masters. thats multiplayer PvP only. with the exception of a few player vs computer (tutorial, few instances)
although the game hours 'put' into it suggests to me card farming program?

oooh i see you also got fearless fantasy! (i'm in the credits)

Yeah, I bow to the altar of card farming. And since it's a six card badge I keep it in my library....7 or more and it might get pruned.

Nice work on being mentioned in a game. What were you mentioned for? The best I've managed was a brief mention in the credits of a piece of PSP homebrew.

i helped the psycho creator beta test it. i call him psycho since shortly after making that, he decided to remove all of his beautiful works of art, music, games etc on newgrounds thanks to finding god. he viewed his previous things as demonic or evil or whatever.

Definitely a MUD. I'm not sure if it was the first one I played, but The Final Challenge was the first one I stayed on for any length of time.

A MUD for me too, in 1995 or so.

My first was also a MUD. I believe that was around 1988 while I was still in my first university.

I'm trying to remember if I played anything online prior to my first (and only1) MUD around 1994. It was an LPMud called The Marches of Antan and it was awesome.

It's possible I tried my hand at NetHack prior to that (some of my friends did). But I don't recall ever really playing it.

Not necessarily, many games have cancerous communities which leads to bad gameplay

Not sure how a community affects gameplay mechanics, but alright. Bad people tend to exist, but I'd say they're a minority for most games and a majority in no games. No reason to be disheartened, I think.

Probably some small game on Miniclip. Or going back even further maybe some random backgammon or darts on some random site.
The first major game I played online (for quite a while) was probably RuneScape though.

Half-Life 1 multiplayer. Discovered the Counter-Strike Beta 4.0 shortly after and sunk many hours in that game. The time when a few 100MBs took a day to download :D
