Just a reminder that the loading times for PlayStation games were really bad, you lost a lot of gaming time just sitting there, staring at the screen and doing absolutely nothing.
You've wasted a lot of your childhood just waiting for that Disc to load.

It really bothered me as a kid since I was so used to playing cartridge consoles but as an adult most load times honestly do not seem all that bad.

>>12508831
patience is a virtue, and playing slow final fantasy or civilization ii was a great way to be at peace during play, which made the memory of it all seem infinite and like a cozier time. you are wasting your tike here and you’re impatient and probably don’t enjoy space between moments and sre itching to get it done because you’re one of these modern mutant pieces of crap who has no soul. enjoy losing all your hair from high blood pressure and dropping dead before 50. i’ll wait a few seconds and breathe and sacrifice precious gaming time. choke

How bad? How many seconds do games like Tekken 3 or Resident Evil 2 take to load?

I love loading times so much its unreal
>>
>>12508976
Maybe 2 or 4 more seconds. Realistically there's only so much longer a load time can be when data is pumped in at 300KB/s to fill up 2MB of RAM.

imo 64 games had way too long of load times, often feels like games are crashing.

>you now remember that the occasional extra long loading times on xbox morrowind are because the console is rebooting itself as a result of running out of memory

>MUH LOST TIME
If you retards are this hard up for game time then you are doing something so wrong with your life that you probably shouldn't be playing video games at all
>>
>>12508831
A necessary sacrifice for having games with actual plots, good music and beautiful art.

Who cares, loading screens are soulful

n64 is objectively worse for not being able to run final fantasy 7

Would you believe Nintendo's claimed reason for not using discs was that they didn't like load times?

I believe them in a clinical, cold, clean room sense where they're making up mandates like "you can't include a screen that says loading." but when they're going through cert they just say something like building and it's totally fine it has longer load times than the sega saturn.

I remember the Final Fantasy Anthology being especially bad for this, with about a 5-8 second transition screen on every encounter, though that could have been just an aesthetic choice instead of a way to hide loading screens. I didn't even notice them as a kid, not until I played the SNES versions.

no one fucking cares, faglord. you are an embarrassment running around the board defending nintendo and relying on polls and perceived internet consensus that has no basis in reality. all you do is ruin threads. you’re the scum of the earth.

All these loading times man, these games really don't respect my time, boomers really didn't know better. I mean I could be browsing tiktok during those precious seconds of life gone away! We have it so much better now.
>>
>>12508831
>PlayStation games
not as bad as Sega Saturn.
CD games on PC had similar problems unless they allow full installation on HDD.
>>
I don't mind loading times. I like waiting in long lines, I'm fine with stoplights, I consider myself very patient in spite of my undiagnosed ADHD. It doesn't bother me at all.

op put his n64 controller joystick up his ass while typing this and splooged on a banjo kazooie strategy guide
