Recommendations may be nice, but I doubt it can replace the childhood nostalgia for a lot of people.

Yes you can. You don’t speak for all of us. Many of us moved on and expanded our pallet just fine and are happier for it.

It’s actually really good for your brain to keep finding new things for developing it.

Novelty is love. Variety is the spice of life.

I have a lot of nostalgia for Final Fantasy 7. Amazingly, when I played Trails in the Sky many years later, I did kind of feel that nostalgia for a well-made JRPG. I guess I’m saying it’s possible.

You can definitely experience nostalgia for things you've never experienced before.

If it replaces the childhood nostalgia of at least one person, it will have been worth it.
