Getting to the next part, because I ran out of space.

>Video games critics are still blinded by commercial success. Ocarina of Time invented lock-on (not true, by the way), therefore it must have been the greatest. Film critics grow up watching a lot of films of the past, literature critics grow up reading a lot of classical books of the past. Video game critics are often totally ignorant of the video games of the past, they barely know the Nintendo games. No wonder they will think that Ocarina did anything worthy of being saved.
If your only knowledge of videogame critics are the typical paid off advertisers proclaiming themselves as journalists, and/or the political activists, I could see why this would be your perspective, which betrays how absolutely fucking little you actually know about videogames and the fields around them.

Your argument is basically that crass commercialism and shitty journalism exists, as if that was unique to videogames. Are movies as a medium "not mature," simply because you can go and dig up any random asshole who jerks off furiously to the latest Disney-Marvel assemblyline product? Does that undo The Godfather, 2001, or Robocop? Did the entirety of the film medium fail in "being mature" when Cannon Ball Run made mountains and mountains of money, in spite of actually being a really shitty and unfunny movie, or when Police Academy was desperately shaken down for endless sequels? I would say no.

To say that games of the past don't get appreciation or recognition is ignorance at best, and an intentional lie at worst, given the board that we're on and how big corporations to this day still make money on re-releasing their old games (or more regretfully, needlessly remaking them).
You really are an absolutely tremendous and dishonest faggot, a cocksucker of legends, everything about this post/pasta is bullshit, retarded, or reductive.

Stop feeding him. Losers like him weren't loved enough as a child, so crave attention from any sources they can get, even negative attention. Just set up a filter.

Low quality bait, you're literally playing yet another reimagination of the game, only this time it's official. This doesn't mean however that it's good, actually, it's the other way around... I've been playing it all day and I'll gladly switch back to GDX. This thing is more bugged than the most prominent sourceports which is laughable, and it doesn't even feel, look and sound the same as the original. I bet there's a lot more stuff into it, probably the worst of all is the AI though... This anon right here >>5561597 >>5561713 better explained the matter and thinking this is only the tip of the iceberg that was found the very first day makes me laugh and cry at the same time; at least Blood got some recognition after all this time, something good did come up from this pile of garbage.

It's not BloodCM mind you, but it's not that great either. I've been playing it all day and I'll gladly switch back to GDX... This thing is bugged and it doesn't feel, look and sound the same.

I love it because I think the total opposite of your reasons.
>the controls are clunky
this game has a lot of moves and they are really smooth to perform, there's nothing more fun than doing backflips, wall jumps or sliding i this game
>the world feels exrremely empty
there's so much stuff to see, like a pyramid full of traps, a sunken city, all the different thigns there are in rainbow road, that world that changes from big to small...
>devoid of life
maybe if you're expecting more NPCs, but there are a lot of enemies in the worlds
>you can only collect the same collectable for so long ebfore becoming bored
what does this even mean? you're supposed to get each collectable once in a playthrough. if you are talking about replayability, you will get bored of any game from doing the same thing over and over
