Me, but Cuckman is “Games that won’t run on my PC because I refuse to upgrade it until pricing returns to sanity”, and since somebody seems to invent a new wheeze to keep pricing through the roof every few years, I’m still on a 1060.

Still, I’m enjoying older games. They’re fine. For anything modern, the PS5 can run them. For anything small, the Legion Go S can run them.

The real cuck energy is never actually playing the games and just watching streamers

It’s just like old music. People have been making music since the dawn of time, and the ratio of good to shit music was relatively constant. The only thing is, shit music tends to be forgotten over time, whereas the greats still survive.

People that are into old music, regardless of the period, are almost by definition listening to a curated bunch of greatest hits. Ditto for retro gaming: the by-the-numbers, derivative or unplayable crap is long forgotten.

I have to disagree. The amount of high quality games has never been higher, and there is something for every kind of player available. And i can remember a ton of absolutely awful games from the 90s and 00s.

AAA studios having enshittified doesn’t mean that you have to go retro to find a great game.

Unaffordable games like Terraria, Celeste, Binding of Isaac, which i got for 5 euro each, or like btd6 which i got for only 1, or like vivid/stasis, unless, catgirl, or dracomaton which i got for free

All of these games are amazing that i have spent over 100 hours playing each(excluding binding of isaac since i got it recently and only have half that, catgirl and unless since they are short games, and dracomaton since it caused by motherboard to melt and am too afraid to open it again
