Does retro gaming have a place if you didn't grow up with this stuff? I'm starting to question my motivations to being into /vr/ and it feels like I'm just doing this to be a contrarian more than anything, and not actually enjoying what I'm playing.

for most intents and purposes, it doesn't make much sense to play an older title if a newer one eclipses it in almost every way.

Other than imsims and stealth games, what other examples are there?

What was your reaction when you played Halo: Combat Evolved for the first time?

It doesn't even have any good games if you like Sega. Just terrible weebshit.
Saturn is not for Sega fans. It is for anime fans.

If only they knew back then
