  Of course it does. Art is the medium through which we process and communicate our most complicated emotions. As the world continues to change, more and more art will have the power to affect us positively

    Listen, I’m not saying we don’t need the odd new DeltaRune or Blue Prince. But the sheer volume of new mass market games seems to have eclipsed the real overall demand some time ago.

    If you’re constantly obsessed with the New Title, you lose sight of the vintage classics. You never have a chance to pick up an old Atari game from the 70s or try some SNES banger from the 90s or even a PS3 classic from the 10s if you’ve glued yourself to the New Releases queue.

    Maybe people have emotions worth communing with that are more than a year old.

      Okay great, so you agree with me 100%, thank you for clarifying.

      Regarding “New Title” addicts who consider anything released more than one day ago to be valueless, I agree that that is nonsensical. I’m confused about why you’re bringing it to my attention, however

        Amazed you’re into text-heavy games when you’re struggling with basic literacy.

      Im not 40, I’ve tried old games, I know why they aren’t still relevant now, nostalgia doesn’t make me like them
