RPGs: The State of Play

[Azathoth]

I think RPG's have always been getting better. I might be overcompensating the nostalgia bias that most people seem to have about anything they played as young kid back in the 80s and 90s. In that case TinCow is probably right, and I am a dumbass who needs to start playing some 90s RPG's to see what's what.

It's true. Most of the stuff before the mid-90s just isn't worth playing.

This sort of nostalgia-superiority complex becomes endemic the older you get.

The music kids listen to nowadays is trash, the 80s were so much better.

What kind of crap is on TV all the time? It was much better when there were only 5 channels or Gummi Bears, Voltron, and He-man are all way better than Spongebob or whatever.

All movies nowadays are just schemes to make a quick buck off stupid moviegoers. When I was younger, they put out real classics.


See, we'll become bitter and close-minded ourselves. It's already starting.
