I am happy you don’t need an /s behind there as your tone is obvious even to the dubest of us.

If anyone does miss it, they’re a lost cause anyway IMO

Hard to argue with that. Garçon, I am ready for my next short form video!

In seriousness, I think gaming has LESS pressure from past titles because while classics still get played decades later, many games don’t even work on a modern operating system and many are so janky that you can instantly tell they’re old. Games often don’t age well. You could argue that the same happens for other media but IMO games depreciate more because of the technical aspect.

I would agree, yeah. Thankfully you have folks like GOG doing work to preserve older titles
