i maintain that it is good for a gamer soul to be into an older game with a modding community that is still active despite its age but okay this is long as fuck hang on
i am getting over my Triple A Bad, HD Graphics Soulless, Future Of Games Doomed stance because i have realized that people who bring up that stance all the time with little to no provocation are really fucking annoying. its like this weirdly smug attitude of ooo well new game looks good but is it good???!!? or like "newfangled engine is too resource intensive as opposed to old game which is reliable" and in that case itd be unfair of me to harsh on that too much because it depends on your system and good modern pc parts are not cheap but also idk can you just be honest about it instead of acting like a nostalgia poisoned tradbrain. and people will bring up examples of big companies putting out superficially polished but shit quality cashgrabs that dont stray far from market trends for fear of number not going up enough but the thing is like all of them have sucked for years i really think it is generally not a matter of them getting worse i think ea and ubisoft and bethesda etc etc have in fact always put out polished market trend-riddled turds like with some outliers depending on who you ask of course but i mean overall im pretty sure specific triple a companies suck currently because thats what theyve always done. isnt that what you want i thought you hated change you weenie.
⚠️ NOTE IN CASE IT SOMEHOW ISN'T CLEAR: THIS ISN'T A DEFENSE OF TRIPLE A GAME COMPANIES OR THE GAMING INDUSTRY IN GENERAL. LET ME REPEAT THAT. THIS ISNT A DEFENSE. NOD YOUR HEAD IF YOU UNDERSTAND⚠️
tl;dr: i read a thread on a modding site i frequent where a longtime member of the community was saying goodbye and giving people permission to do whatever with the work he'd posted over the years (which is a significant amount of shit like i need to stress this this guy has done a fucking lot) and the way like half the people in it got hung up on a slightly cheeky remark he made about feeling like moving on to newer things after playing a more recently released game and going uhhblhngn no Old Thing Better Actually 😤 without even saying goodbye back or thanking him for being so generous pissed me off. fucking boomers/gen Xers have no manners
tltl;dr;dr: hes having a gamer moment get the spray bottle
