this board is rough, even by 4chan standards. why isn't there more chat about simply enjoying old games?

because the coomlectors you describe don't care about actually playing games, only looking like they do. just emulate.

The only time threads get made about individual games is when random people ask what is the best way to play X so all the threads turn into that. If a thread is made to have a discussion about gameplay the second reply will be from someone who only likes one game and will make it known how that one game is better than the game in the OP, so now the thread is a war.

There is a good Zelda 1 thread in the catalog that is strictly about gameplay and guess what, its a game that never got a remake or remaster. When games get the remaster/remake/port treatment the online discourse is forever ruined.

The browning of the internet has been a disaster for 4chan.
