/vr/ - Retro Games

La Mulana is fucking brilliant and the remake just isn't as good although still not bad and worth playing

No, because they games they’re making are shitty.

>>7116753
just like most games from the 80-90's????

Sort of, there's definitely some good indie games, but there is a huge group that just releases trash and rides the muh 1 developer tag

>>7116764
The difference is, there are no 10/10 modern soindie games while there are several ones from the retro time frame (which is still pre-y2k, whether you zoomer faggots like it or not).

>>7116798
Terraria? That farming game? (Stardew valley I think) Maybe not 10/10 but definitely enjoyable

>>7116753

Undertale is a 10/10 and will go down as one of the greatest games of the decade whether you like it or not. Ditto for Cuphead, Hotline Miami, and Baba Is You. Iconoclasts deserves to as well but tasteless plebs shat on it for some reason so its reputation isn't what it should be.

Mostly agree, except with "huge constraints on time." Most games now take several years of development just to enter Early Access and even longer to reach anything close to a truly finished state, whereas most games in the 80's and early 90's were pumped out within mere months.

Undertale fandom makes Sonic fandom look normal

Did someone say sexy tails boipussi??

>>7116871
You could say the same about a fucking skeleton and a gay robot

>>7116905
Don't care still nutting to tails

I'm 30 years old and Undertale may be my favorite game

Do you have the urge to become a woman or fuck animals?

>Iconoclasts deserves to as well but tasteless plebs shat on it for some reason so its reputation isn't what it should be.
I can agree with this. No fucking idea why isn't it more popular.

>>7116808
The only good game you posted there is Cuphead

>>7116734
No. Game devs in the 80's weren't talentless cucks who begged for money from even more retarded cucks

>>7116798
I think your scale is out of whack. Many great classic games from the 8bit era i consider true garbage nowadays or at least mediocre. Like tetris and super mario bros.

In puzzle games we got better games than ever like shenzhen, infinifactory, super puzzle platformer deluxe and spacechem.

And porn games are the best games ever made, hands down. And most porn games are indie. Thats one of the few things that got better from the 90s to now. Porn games. Movies onnthe other hand... We dont talk about it...

There's a decent one every couple years at most.
I won't even get into all the other dumbassery.

80/90s games had usually about 5-16 working on the game total. their companies advertised for what them, and they were paid (90% of the time) cause it was their job.

indie devs are 1,maybe 3 people unpaid (unless they are shilling faggots), with other jobs and responsibilities.

its going to be rarer that a single/duo/trio would make a better game than a paid, focused group, but it happens

>>7116734
no because they lack skill

>>7117343
retro porn rpg games would be cool as hell

Indie games have always been a thing on computers.

>>7116734
the ironic part, its the fact terminus is a indie videogame and still a prototype, yet looks better than silent hill shattered memories wich is a official silent hill videogame.

>>7117507
they wouldnt use that aids ridden term though

>>7116798

The west doesn't have the spirit to get the right to use doujin

based.

No, 80s - 90s gamedevs weren't self hating white liberals.

They're equivalent to those quarter-page ads in 80s computer magazines for mail-ordering games made by some literally who

>>7116798

I don't know about Undertale or whatever but FTL is a masterpiece. Also, you are not a person, so your criticism is hard to take seriously.

>>7116734
More or less.

>>7116753
If you think every single game made in those time periods was a shining diamond, you're very much mistaken.

>>7116798
I don't know about 10/10, but there's games like Cuphead, World Of Horror, Stardew Valley, Dwarf Fortress, etc, which are all really good, and there are MANY old games which can't even begin to compare.

>>7117313
Tetris is fucking timeless though, are you high?
For porn games, they leave things to be desired still.
