What have I missed? Been gone since January. Surprisingly, my memory of DM's (is it still called DM?) syntax is pretty intact (granted, it was only like 3 months but still).

How is the community now? Any different?

3/4 months is not a long time in BYOND. I'm not even sure much has changed really since 2002.

Perhaps not a long time for development, but game and community-wise, what's changed? Anything?

Also, what developmental changes have happened? Anything significant?

No, it's not a long time for the community. It's actually not a bad length of time for development. They've been working major updates recently, so no big new features that I recall.

NEStalgia was released, it's a fun game to play for awhile.

ALOT has changed since even '04, so surely there's been change since 2002..Maybe you're just used to the way things are now...

I'd hazard a guess that he's not aiming at the products, but the community.

Hmmm, I could mostly agree with that..But from what I can remember, there's at least less spam nowadays.. :)

I don't think that's a long time for pretty much any community.

Is NEStalgia similar to Regressia in the sense you have to pay for it?

In response to Moonlight Memento
No, NEStalgia's subscription is entirely optional. It unlocks a few shortcuts in-game, a shared vault, and a few extra classes.

I'd advise you to also consider the length of time each layout was in use. Neither of them changed in the span of several years, let alone 3-4 months.

Is it bad if I remember playing all of those games at one point?

That screenshot sure does bring back memories
