Sorry. I would usually include it in the flair. Couldn't do that here though. Forgot I could tag it on the picture as well.

It's Prince of Persia 2008

I would have never guessed it was from 2008. The art style from this picture looks like Borderlands.

ETA: I should specify that I'm talking about Borderlands 2, which was released in 2012. I never played the first game. Sorry for the confusion.

I figured it was more recent than Prince of Persia. I think my perception of time is clouded when it comes to old media.

Hey don't downvote him for a solid response, most OPs just never name the game

I be feeling like OPs just expect everybody to "just know," which is extremely frustrating. Something gatekeeper-ish about it. Even if it's someone or something that's seemingly obvious, I don't like holding back info from people who could be new fans. Every sub got OPs like that.

I always figure it's either forgetfulness or just a perspective thing. I grew up thinking some games were way more popular than they were because they were HUGE in my circle when I was a kid. If I figured everybody knew what game I was talking about from a single image I would probably forget to explicitly name the game.

Somethings need to be gatekept.

I disagree. Gatekeeping is like using fandom as an excuse for entitlement of something you probably don't even have authority or ownership of.

Give an example then. Or are you gatekeeping examples?

I mean, I don't usually share things that I like with other people. It never comes across my mind to, don't want to bother anyone.

That's a bad mentality friend. People like to share your intrests with you.
