Anyone else fed up with retro gaming culture? Everything just seems artificially difficult, not due to design, but often because the controls are just shit. It's only modern people who think that somehow means it's a work of art.

You used sonic 2 for your example?

>>12569387
nobody's fault but yours that you are playing dogshit games

The average petson doesn't play retro games. They're obsessed with PVP slop. I can hear my neighbor hollering like a retard all the time while he's playing Call of Duty. That's the average gamer in 2026.

>it's different therefore it's bad
unless a game is making you hold 5 buttons simultaneously to jump or move forward, then very rarely are they ever actually bad in terms of controls
>>
>>12569387
Not really. There are enough good games that are still good today that I don't need to worry about the bad ones. Just don't play them is all. How hard is that unless you're some turbonormie insufferable faggot who has to mold himself into his favorite e-celeb?

Yes but its directed at the youtube grifter fucks and fucks who only collect and don't play anything.

>>12569387
it sounds like you're complaining about two different things desu.

Because it is living history. It's also a lot easier now than it was before. There was no one teaching this stuff and almost no documentation on it, just a handful of programmers bashing out lines in basic and yet these people were pioneering innovations that no one had ever seen before.

tldr; if you don't like platformers, RPGs, 2d games, pixel games, you don't like video games.

Most retro games don't suffer from bad controls, they suffer from wacky physics that hadn't yet been perfected.
