People literally come bitch about whatever and troll because it hit all or whatever, that they chose to scroll, instead of just scrolling past it or blocking the community they don’t want to see like a sane person, because their world revolves around their ass.

“WHY ISN’T THIS CONTENT THAT I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR CURATING NOT TO MY TASTE?!”.

Oh I love and loved Nethack and traditional roguelikes, kind of in the middle of a year-two spanning revisit. It’s amazing how far the genre has gone and while I love ASCII graphics, it’s great to see even that side evolve. I’m currently (after like an almost two decade break from) delving into Cataclysm and ToME and I love Cataclysm already, with ASCII, it was a bit, much, at first, but I really feel like a kid again with it. Meaning to get back to Nethack, but Cataclysm just keeps holding me back. Haven’t played the OG Rogue yet, but will definitely get to it one day.

Thanks for the other recommendations

Yeah I wasn’t really talking about tech specs, well aware of that, but thanks. Sorry maybe I worded it awkward, I was wasted last night. Point was that by the advent of Playstation and X-Box Sega and Nintendo kind of faded into the background a lot. I mean if people (rightfully) feel like N64 didn’t get much attention, GameCube and Dreamcast got even less. The past and the present affect the future. I’m just glad we still have Nintendo and Zelda and Metroid and such even if I’m quite a long time of savings away from playing the newer games.

I feel like it’s just overpowered by Playstation and maybe even X-box, I sure remember drooling over all the Nintendo exclusive releases back then, having grown up with NES and SNES games. I’ve been playing Ocarina of Time (my first 3D Zelda, after a lifetime of playing 2D) for the first time this past year (I’m slow and I fucking hate the water temple) and I just absolutely love it. Can’t wait to get into Majora’s Mask, Banjo Kazooie and others I missed out on as a kid. Super Mario 64 didn’t entirely convince me some years ago, but after I’m done with Zelda I might give it a try.

Edit: to say I’m surprised how well Ocarina of Time has aged despite the blocky polygon graphics. Once you get immersed in it, it actually plays very well in my opinion, but then again I’m honestly more used to older games than new and I still constantly play OG Silent Hill and games from that era.
