Why retro sad dad games don't exist? I can't think of a single one, the closest thing is Ico, the retard wrangler game.Feels like certain demographic didn't exists back then.

Fucking third world shitskins will not stop posting here
>>12569940The devs were the sad dads, they needed to get away from it
>>12569940People weren't sad soiboi fags back thenWe were focused on being cool and having fun
>>12569940Why the fuck would it? people interested in making games were hyper masculine-interest (interests, as in pyromaniacs etc, not hyper-masculine as in having big muscles) 22 year old nerds. Not soft-cocked middle aged dads trying to come up with a way to still be interested in the career they invested their life in
>>12569940is that "pal games with better cover art" thread still up?

>>12570646one of the nice things about PAL games is that because we tended to get things a little bit later, our games frequently have some fixes that other versions don't, we got the "day 1 patch" in modern terminology
>>12569940dad gamers hadn’t been invented yetyou basically needed millennials to get old enough to be dads and make games>gen-xnot enough of them
>>12570687The hell you're sayingDads existed then, and back in their own childhoods before they had kids in the NES days they were into pick your own adventure books, D&D campaigns and Tolkien, so they got some retro manly dad video games pandering to those tastes, and even some of the abominable western cover art changes harkened to that.There were games where you were in a protective dad role building a city, or raising a child (Princess Maker, or Terra Fantastica) but the first major legit sad dad game with a traumatized widower who lost his child and wallowing in depression and sadness was the Silent Hill series and that was more inspired by Twin Peaks and horror.The true sad dad games that celebrate cuckoldry therapy and the experience of the destitute divorcee cuck deprived of child visitations were for the most part western inventions, the likes of Heavy Rain, the Last of Us... at least until Pragmata.
what even is a "dad game"? incoherent Third Worlder OP is incoherent.
