I also liked Chrono Trigger, most of Legend of Zelda games. Yeah. Bit of a rebel, me. ever hear of Portal? Bit of an indie thing. Maybe you should check it out.

Great analogy.

I don't get why you guys are taking anime so seriously, I just like good things and I've noticed that the more anime and mallgothy things get, the more I just kinda don't want to even bother. Like, things that are super anime come off as some sort of mix as skeevy and childish, like the kinda poo poo we all loved when we were 15. You know, themes like "Let's use the magic of friendship to kill this deity, also here are some teenagers with K-cups and I don't mean coffee", and well, aren't we all pushing 30 by now? Maybe I've been on the forums too long, but I kinda feel like we should have all grown past that.

The whole mallgothy thing is a lot easier to explain and pretty much the same deal - games like Majora's Mask or Kingdom Hearts are exactly the kind of games you'd expect teenagers who hang out at Hot Topic to discuss in detail. You guys don't play Elmo's Number Journey for N64 and talk about how it's totally a hidden gem on the N64 because it's a game tailor-made for toddlers, why would you play a game made for troubled teenagers? And I know I should probably call them emo games or whatever these days but I'm old enough to actually be a teenager when mallgoths were a thing.

I know Shin Megami Tensei IV is fairly anime and kind of mallgothy, but at least it's written well enough so that anyone can enjoy it. Not that a game being mallgothy really means it's bad or anything, just usually out of your age range. It's good enough to not be full-on mallgothy (because Lord knows its theme fits like a glove), but the mallgoth barometer pretty much means "this is deep to 15 year olds who hate their parents and society but looks dumb to anyone past that". Same goes for anime.

I mean, gently caress, how could it get any simpler? Just play games made for your mental level. And I'm sure we've all mentally surpassed our teen years, right?

Dude, you don't get to be "I feel so old" about Seinfeld, that's been old for ages. Instead feel old about how there's teenagers who were born when Melee came out.

If you want to feel old about Seinfeld, know that I've been watching Curb Your Enthusiasm for the first time and realized that the opening season of this show, which I thought of as "recent" is fifteen loving years old.

If you really want to feel old consider that in the year 2069, you will probably be old enough to be exempted from the mandatory AIDS injections for all gamers.

If you want to really feel old, look in the mirror and see your withered form, realizing that it is already 20XX, and Doctor Wily's robots won the war ages ago, but you didn't notice because you have Korsakoff's syndrome from drinking away your disappointment at having to wait until June for Bethesda's announcement.

What's the forum stance on really old game emulation these days? I was going to post my Imp Zone DQ 3 thing, but I want to play the browser version so that I can do it from wherever and I don't know if that's kosher.

e: oh, it looks like it's NOT kosher, if the LP thread is any indication. NM
