My most vivid impression of the game industry as a kid was my dad taking me to work to play the first Heroes of Might and Magic with mates. I'm five years old, sitting on my dads' lap, but pulling a kingdom of men in the battle for Enroth. And then there's the legendary Eraphia.
And after that it's already a love for sports sims, competitive shooters, KKIs and MOBAs. Though the most vivid impression of the last years is of course Disco Elysium, where everyone will see everyone.
