I really do genuinely hate nostalgiafaggotry
I think it's the antithesis of actual retro gaming
People who wallow in the past saying "I wish I was a kid again" instead of just playing the fucking games makes me sick. You're not a gamer, you're just a sad normalfag.
I see this more with PS2 games, sadly. With Gamecube you see a lot more people actively playing the games instead of reminiscing. But with PS2, you look up a video of any game, whether it's an all-time classic or dogshit shovelware the comments will be absolutely filled with people saying "THIS GAME WAS MY CHILDHOOD I WISH I WAS A KID AGAIN!"
Shut the fuck up and download PCSX2 nigger. Stop acting like this is something that's just frozen in time, like you have no choice but to play Fortnite all day just because it's modern. You can still play the fucking game. I will not have these classics be disrespected by people who just want to *remember* games and not *play* them. I am better than you.

They're just saying this stuff to get replies. This has nothing to do with nostalgia. Sane people prefer real video games, which are simply old stuff. Nobody in their right mind would create threads about modern games in that way. It wouldn't get any replies, and nobody would care. The truth is that the meme "old good, new bad' is absolutely true. Zoomers just refuse to accept that they will never experience these golden magic video games times. It's a constant battle between modern and old video games, just like in movies, manga, anime, music, food, clothing and everything else. People just call it nostalgia because it sounds melancholic, and most people can relate to it since we are all getting older

I hated being a kid. Not that I had a bad childhood or anything, just that being tiny and having zero autonomy constantly pissed me off. The thing I miss is the time before I made my most disastrous and irrevocable fuck-ups.

>Stop acting like this is something that's just frozen in time
But my childhood experiences of these games ARE frozen in time. It's not necessarily the quality of the games that I fondly remember, but everything surrounding them, and the state the world was in when I played them. Quit acting like nostalgia is some profound insult to retro gaming when it's inherent to many people's love of retro games. Fuck off and let me reminisce, you joyless, bitter faggot. Merry Christmas.

Just have children of your own and then you can actually "be a child" again when you get to play with them and just let go of things, lol.

Regardless, the better way to go about it is to just come to Christ. You're stuck in a perpetual state of misery and bitterness with no way out or end in sight and you think that fantasizing about the past is someone going to help you when it does nothing but make things worse for you in the end. Instead of moving out, you remain stuck in the past and in yours ways.

The only one who can get you out of the impasse you've dug yourself into is Jesus alone. You will not be able to move on or improve at all in any way without His help. You need to seek out Jesus and invite Him in your heart, so that He may guide you out of darkness you have allowed yourself to wallow in for eternity.

The experience itself and the environment and community of people who played video games is lol. Also how do you know what youtubers are saying? Why are you using youtube?

there's nothing wrong with reminiscing the past with fondness, but some fags on this board really seem to have issues with letting go of their childhood

Based and real

anon, we already know there are two threads like this, stop posting the archive like a newfag in every thread
>>
Every single nostalgia fag I ever met is trying to "re-live" a childhood they never had, the ones that actually lived through those eras moved onto the next ones and look back fondly but never at such degree that they need to announce it.

This isn't the case if it's a multiplayer game though. It's either been shut down or is now dead due to no one playing it, or it has security vulnerabilities that allow people to rat your PC (blame Windows).
You're generally right when it comes to singleplayer games but most of the people making those comments are consolefags.

Only if you're tech illiterate (a zoomer)

Find a group of people that you're ok with to play the game with.
Used to do that some years ago, played UT99, and Black Hawk Rising
I still miss you 8ch/vg/

Yes. Gotham City Imposters, Ghost Recon Phantoms, etc.

>>729229094
It only isn't the case if the game is popular enough to have a custom client, mods made for it to fix it or a server browser (see: old CoDs on PC). Most games that used P2P are dead now or full of CVEs. Stop Killing Games wasn't a thing for no reason.

>>729229221
It's not just about finding people to play old ass games, a lot of times you need a full lobby of people to play certain old games.

Yes?
Ghost Recon Phantoms is mildly nostalgic for me since it was one of the first games I played on my Steam account and I used to play Gotham City Imposters on XBLA a lot with my friends back when I had a 360, so yeah they're nostalgic, and 2012 was almost 14 years ago. I can only imagine how dead multiplayer PC games made before then are. Unless you're playing WoW or some shit.
