Descent was released 30 years ago on 13th March 1995. While not necessarily remembered as much as other classic games from that time, it became widely regarded as a major milestone in the development of real-time 3D graphics as we know them today.
@yora It's odd to me that Descent hasn't been copied very often.
Overload was really good, but the idiot press completely ignored it, and the studio shut down from lack of sales.
@midnightspire @yora probably didn't help that the whole descent underground ordeal happening throughout it's launch, kinda soured the entire community that would have bought it away from trusting either kickstarters or early access.
