Call me weird
Bro, at this point that is the majority’s opinion. Some of the biggest hits in recent memory are stuff like Silksong and Terminator 2D.
Indies still put out great games, even if most of the time they aren’t designed like retro games.
Seventh gen systems largely play like what we have today though, so in my opinion they don’t count. I can see it with a Wii since that was more like a GameCube Pro, but otherwise no. I don’t think PS3 is retro.
With RetroArch you can literally get them for nothing. It’s so cool.
I think it’s because cyberpunk was an emerging genre at that point. Neuromancer was only six years old in 1990. Snow Crash wouldn’t be out for another two years.
Cyberpunk also represents people’s worries and fears regarding capitalism and what society will look like if it continues in the current trejectory, those fears weren’t as pronounced in the 1990s.
None, I don’t have enough room for one and even if I did, I don’t know if I’d want one. CRT enthusiasts go on about how CRT is unmatched when it comes to motion clarity and I wouldn’t want to get used to that experience since we are higly unlikely to get any more of those displays and it could make everything else feel like a severe downgrade.
Fifteen? Uh, yikes, that probably isn’t good. I do hate how long compaines take to make games today but still.
