I think people (and I am the same) have fond memories of the games of yesteryear. Games that back then were fairly unique and in the minority.
I have lots of fond memories of games from yester-year and today, myself.
Morrowind was my all time favourite game and yet revisiting it for me 6 years later it has aged. Yes I know mods have done this and that but now I just look on at it as the first truly 3D game I played and it has a certain place in my heart.
As much as I loved Morrowind, I'll take Oblivion over it anyday.
As much as I loved Oblivion, I think Fallout 3 was even better than Oblivion.
This is similar to DD. People remember it for what is was a rather quirky yet unique little game that came underneath the radar. Personally I am not sure how they can possibly follow this up without making it pretty much exactly the same.
And if DD is too much of the same, it'll likely get slammed for that -- especially being so many years later, too.
I guess it's the same as George Lucas. Hell the hell does he live up to his own hype with the first three films?
He likely can't.
He'll likely never top A New Hope, Empire Strikes Back, and Return of The Jedi.
I liked Empire the best, myself.
All three of those films were great.
Revenge Of The Sith was very good -- and is as close as he'll likely get, for now...
I did like Phantom Menace and Clone Wars -- they were decent -- but they're nowhere as great as the other FOUR.
