Plenty of new and old games have fun gameplay, plenty of new and old games have bad gameplay.
You are 100% what the comment your replied to said. You remember the good games, not the many more bad ones.
Mmm, I think there's an inverted argument here. Older games didn't have to be better (we just remember the good ones), but there is a much larger market now of demonstrably horrible games that float by on good graphics and gambling.
Yeah that's why I never care when a new PlayStation comes out. You all could have been making fun games on the old hardware. making it render faster doesn't make it any more fun. I mostly play indie games that look like cartoons now
Ah, my mistake. I thought it was from the late levels of redemption, but it must be bloodlines.
In redemption (MP) you choose a map and the host acts practically as DM, spawning enemies and loot as the other players crawl through the dungeons.
It's overly complicated, but an interesting proposal.
There is a good chunk of items that you wouldnt normally find in the SP (weapons with special stats, weapons for humans) which makes me think that they had a bigger idea of how the MP should work.
Even though my Devon Rex has a Sphinx shaped head, there are at least two polygons too many on that nose. Six if this is supposed to be a regular Norwegian Woodcat.

With graphic limitations like this games actually had to be fun

Isn't that one of the games coined worst in history?
Here's some eyecandy for you:

Ah man! The House! I remember this game. There was so many things to do... open door, shut door, put egg on pan... eat egg...
Wow what a blast from the past!

The music was amazing too, and the game coded to perfection.

Yes, Superman 64. Only beat by ET as worst game ever.

I haven't had to bad fortune of playing ET. I did have Superman 64, unfortunately. How the hell that mess was ever released...

I really do think that though.
I mean look at chess, simple figures and an 8x8 board... Fantastic game.

Okay fair enough, let's do a reality check.
I love tactical games, any recent good ones? Or a non-action RPG?

Stylized graphics > hyperrealism
Cheaper to compute as well, so no need for beefy hardware

We need better games with "worse" graphics. I don't need everything to be """photorealistic""" slop

What game is this ?

Vampire: The Masquerade

Wait, for real? That cat has more polygons than Christophe's sword.
I love that game.
Totally unrelated, but that game has one of the weirdest multiplayers i have seen. It feels closer to a D&D session than a MP
kayzeekayzee@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 81d
Which VtM game is it? Also what's the multiplayer like?

Back when developers considered it important to texture their games. Miss those days.

I've been playing Minecraft 1.16.5 recently. Honestly it's the best version imo
