It's fake nostalgia with most filters. The gaps were too narrow for most to notice. CRT-Royale does it right.

Good games have always been made, and many of today's are just as good, especially some from indie auteurs instead of corporate machines.

Doom is an important game, but it plays like shit in retrospect.

Agreed. Hollow Knight is a fantastic game that oozes soul with it's drawn graphics. So much better than the other "new retro" games like Celeste which rely on overly blocky pseudo 8 bit. It's so obvious these people never played on a CRT or realized that there were sprite designs that went way beyond NES and kicked ass like the Metal Slug series.

You're free to point it out and address it. That's another reason why these threads exist after all.
If you can't, your post is nothing but bitter baseless dismissal which adds nothing to the discussion, and can safely be ignored.

Diablo was always a bad, low effort gauntlet clone with dopamine drip skinner box tactics that tricked you into thinking it was good.

that's not how you say Tiberian Sun

Addendum to >>5576009
Fact: Indie devs still try to find innovative mechanics that change the gameplay of an established genre significantly.

Example: Snake Pass - a platformer with completely new idea of movement - you slither and coil trying to maintain grip on the surfaces, instead of running and jumping around, and still maintains fundamental part of platformer - movement itself should be fun.
