Older games = more than 2 years old? Then the same goes for readers, movie and TV watchers, etc media consumption most isn't from the current or previous years

Heroes 3 HoTA is still excellent and being actively developed.

What about new games, like world of warcraft.

[–] Itdidnttrickledown@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I do not. I haven't played a gamer older than thirty years old in years

There is just so much time in a day and I think nostalgia does come to play with this as well. Gaming tends to correlate to being younger and having more free time, so by playing the same games you did back then you're reliving those days.

Just a thought anyway, I tend to play older games as well, but also newer games like Baldur's gate 3 or Path of Exile 2.

New games are steaming piles of shit most of the time nowadays.

Either oldish titles or Indies, mainstream game devs are pure malaria
