This is also just a few days after Durov published Nazi dogwhistles in the latest Telegram update blog post.

Proton has gotten so good that many games do better under it than native

Honestly, my argument that new and old games are both good would be to point straight at the Ratchet & Clank series.

In my opinion, it's only gotten better with time, and the latest entry in the Series from 2021 is genuinely one of the greatest games I've ever played. It's modern, cutting-edge, requiring a PCIe Gen4 SSD and a DualSense controller for the best experience. It's just fantastic. New games, even AAA games, can be great so long as the project is being led by people who know how to make good games.

They don’t need to react. Valve handles the compatibility for them.

It’s not a controversial take, but survivorship bias is certainly strong with anything like this. People like classic rock because the bad songs from that era have faded into obscurity. The same goes for your favorite retro games; for every Ocarina of Time there was a Superman 64. For every Zelda there were 3 shitty LJN games.

The type of trash is just different. Instead of low-effort cash grab games, now we get high-effort overworked devs making a game that asks you to pay for it over and over again.

I think he shines as a producer. His music is genuinely good, but I don’t like him as a person. I don’t change the channel when he comes on the radio but his music will not be in my personal library. Kendrick Lamar though… good shit all day.

I’ve been playing Balatro and No Man’s Sky.

I actually picked up a ps3 slim and a decent handful of physical games. You can still buy digital ps3 games too on the console itself

It’s not dumb at all, no need to downplay your passion. Loud and proud I say!!

My favorite is the PS3. Something about its design and library just speaks to me.

The only good new mobile games are on Apple Arcade, which is behind a paywall. It sucks but what can ya do.
