I let my dad throw out my original NES when it started showing cart connection issues. He opened it up and couldn't figure out the issue and told me he would buy me a new NES if we threw this one out. As a kid i stupidly said ok and he got me a new system that xmas, but i will be haunted until the day i die about letting a perfectly salvageable system being tossed. I now have a Sharp NES, a top loader, a FamicomBox and multiple other fami models and about 10 other regular systems including the replacement. I would buy any fucked up, dirty system i could find to restore, but nothing has filled that hole in my soul of that original lost system.

I'm a coomlector. At least when it comes to consoles.
I'll buy a console, clean it up, get it modded for RGB if it needs it, buy the corresponding flash cart, play it for a little, and then leave it in it's own plastic storage tub. If it's a disc based console, I'll get two. One to install an ODE in, and the other I'll keep it's disc drive intact.
It's got to the point where' I'm looking at collecting D-list consoles, like the Apple Pippin and the Game.Com. I don't think I'll ever get into 80's home computers, but I also used to think I'd never buy a Jaguar or a CD-i.

Fair enough. You stand in an open field and plug at each other until either you and your companions or the enemy dies. Your stats dictate how much damage your fists and weapons do. Since the enemies don't scale with you like the in Bethesda games, if you wander into a high level area you will get slaughtered.
Once you have either Marcus or Goris the combat becomes piss easy. They tear through anything that isn't Enclave

6th gen depresses me because it reminds me of when the world became darker after 9/11, and it kind of is reflected on the games, starting with 6th gen, most stuff became grey/brown, realistic and gritty.

I once bought a Sega cartridge, opened it up, and replaced it with another, broken cartridge circuit board. I've brought it back to the store, said it's not working, and in exchange for selling me a dead cartridge, they gave me another one for free.

You're probably partially right, I imagine that some of the YouTubers who made it more popular now were probably those guys who talked about how great it was before they played it back in the early 2000's.

i think they're all good to okay games (except sister location and pre-patch security breach) but the fandom and some of the later games kinda miss the point by over complicating things but my nephew loves them.

kojima is given WAY too much credit especially with how MGS2 is viewed as a misunderstood masterpiece nowadays. he's a relatively good but expensive (see why konami fired him) game designer who wears alot of his influences on his sleeve which his fanboys misinterpret as being deep or profound because they don't exactly know what movie or anime he's referencing 90% of the time.

at the end of the day he's no different than other japanese developers with a cult of rabid fanboys like miyazaki or yoshida.

Abe's Oddysee is in my top 5 but I can see why some people wouldn't like it. Tomb Raider is a favourite of mine but it's hard to play if you're used to modern stuff and never touched it, and while I like Crash Bash it's purely nostalgia. Hating Tomba after 5 minutes however is a sign of terminally shit taste, if nothing else it's charming as all hell, I'd implore you to give it a try until you get past the Dwarf Village at the very least if you didn't already.

I love RPGs but they bore me too. I just play them when I'm in a mood to be relaxed. Right after work, right before bed, when I'm sick (I always play Final Fantasy when I'm sick, it's my chicken soup).
I also will only play an RPG every day if I'm obsessed with it. Otherwise, I just play them once a week or so. I kinda treat it like I'm sitting down for an episode of a good TV show. The time away helps them feel fresh for longer.
Another thing I do is adjust how I play to make sure I'm having fun. It's way better to have fun and lose than win and be bored out of your skull. Most of the time a playthrough ends when you get bored, not when you get stuck, so your enthusiasm is essentially your life bar.
I recently finished FFX for the first time and I was feeling the slog too. I forced my way through the last two dungeons by spamming the ability that makes your whole party run away at once and managed to clutch out a win on the final boss by abusing all the consumables I'd been saving. It was very quick and intense, and I really enjoyed it. I'm sure I could have won more elegantly if I hadn't rushed through so much, but I found a solution that was fun for me. That's what's important.
RPGs are less like an arcade game and more like a Lego set. You can follow all the instructions and win the "right" way, but if you're bored or want to do your own thing you can design your own solution. That's why they're great.

Bad post anon, you seem very stupid.
Your initial post, this one >>10105423, is still profoundly moronic. Not everyone is going to remember every gameplay or story detail from every game they've ever completed, and implying they're 'fake' or 'alleged' fans if they don't have the entire experience memorized shows how extremely out of touch you are both socially and logically.

Playing through in hardcore mode with the most powerful possible items was more fun to me than playing it with the randomly generated gear. Would love to find that program again, since it is not as fun playing it the way the developers intended than cheating.

Not that anon, but the Croc Cap was a popular discussion topic when the game was current, same with the Tsuchinoko. You might not know where or how to get them (the tsuchinoko was especially horseshit), but you'd probably heard of them.
That said, it's understandable that new players wouldn't have that knowledge. And I wouldn't call them "not fans" just because they hadn't played in that 1-2 year span of time.
