It’s fine. 40 is the new 30, 30 is the new 20, and this kind of youthful confusion about time and aging is exactly what I’d expect from a 10 year old, so it tracks.
This is so fucking stupid. If you substitute movies or books for the images it would just seem stupid.
It’s weird video games get this strange space of “old”.
I think it says a lot about the quality of these games that so many have remasters, remakes, or even an open source engine swap.
I recently played Half Life for the first time. It was fun! There is really no issue with old games, unless they had issues from the start, of course.
And now I finally get the “Blah blah blah Mr. Freeman” joke.
I can assure you, a millennial or older wrote this list to rile up his fellows :D
If someone said this to me. I would be violent instantly.
all these games came out past my prime video game years, i am great gramp gamer i guess
I love my gramp games :(
Dude I can smell this picture
House mildew and cigarettes?
D2 listed as slop? SLOP!?!?!? Who created this horrible meme and where do they live? My baseball bat wants to have a few words with them.

D2 was the OG slop. Rogue-like before Rogue-like was cool. An endless, graduated grind with minimal story and hundreds of hours of “We’ve changed the color palette slightly so you know the thing you’re click-spamming is more difficult to kill” monotony.
It’s the kind of game you play through once with glee, then get halfway through the second run at higher difficulty, gasping for air at 2am on a Wednesday night with exams the next day, and ask yourself “Holy shit, what have I done with my life?!”
Then you jam the uninstall button, snap the CD, and bury yourself in your bedsheets dreading the hangover after your brief moment of lucidity fades.

Yeah, uninstall and snap the CD definitely not buy a couple more copies so you so you multi bot farm with D2jsp for perfect uniques. Absolutely definitely not that never ever didn’t happen. Nope.
Who would do this? Nobody would do this!
hand shaking
To those of us who played thousands of hours of D2 this is a comical take
You: smugly laughing at video games from the 90s
Me: Slipping into a dementia addled bliss as I play the classics absent any DLC, Microtransactions, or fear that the studio will collapse before it finishes the series
lmao this takes me back to the olden days of bait when you could just call something shit and people would argue.
That never happened, as I will explain in my 42 part podcast…

Old days, huh?
Time is a flat circle, my friend.
Ragebait is the meta now for any and all content instead of just the occasional troll stirring shit.
This contextless superficial review of classics denies the groundbreaking gameplay, art styles, storytelling, and direction that these games contributed to the artistic medium that is video games.
Like saying that The Godfather sucks becuase it is derivative and stuck in the time that it was created.
Alright I’m done yelling at clouds.

Plural? I only see one.
I’ve yelled at Cloud far too much in my life. 😆
“All we had to do was follow the damn train Cloud!”
Alright pal, you want a fight?
It’s only slop if it’s bad. Otherwise it’s core. In this case, Grampcore.
