I was there too. Discussion on /vr/ is more or less the same quality as it always was. Anyone who says otherwise is just looking back with rose-colored lenses. Either that, or you're subtly trolling us with this entire debate.

As were on-topic posts and threads. Lots of them. You practically had to walk on eggshells to avoid being targeted. And even then, it was sometimes completely random to end up losing your thread and getting banned for "Quality of posts" or some other cryptic nonsense.

It's board population. When there's a very small population things are pretty chill, but as soon as it goes up the typical 4chan starts coming out more. In the first few weeks barely anyone was here.

It's like the text boards. There were two namefags that went after each other a lot, but besides that they were very relaxed and chill. But that's also because hardly anyone even knew they existed.

/vr/ use to be awesome but over the last couple months it's really gone down hill. I think heavier moderation (in what is and isn't retro) would help promote deeper discussion because right now you have shit threads like this that belong on /v/.

This thread epitomizes autism.

>"You shouldn't disagree with me because it hurts my feelings!"

Seriously? Who cares. It's just a poll.

I did enjoy CT on my first playthrough, but SSBM has practically infinite replay value for me, so that's what I voted for.

I really haven't felt compelled to pick up CT and replay it, but maybe that's because it didn't have a chance to instill me with nostalgia when it was released sometime during my early teenage years. It was only after the Final Fantasy Chronicles collection rolled out that I picked up the game and played it for the first time ever. Sure, it's a solid game, but I don't feel like it lives up to all the hype.
