There are a few milestones in PC gaming that stand out in my memory as defining my expectations and informing my experiences. The likes of Diablo, Warcraft 2, Quake 3, and MechWarrior 3. It was a game that more than those others seemed like so much MORE than just a game. It was with sadness that I saw the series lay dormant as I grew older, besides MWO which did not truly suit my taste for the franchise. MechWarrior 5 is, especially after a number of years and expansions (and a matured mod scene), within reach of the legacy. It is not flawless, but it sure the hell is MechWarrior. And I am here for it.
