Updating the /vr/ Sticky and Rules

[Anonymous No.6770545]

With the coming release of the PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series X, we think it's time to update /vr/'s definition of 'retro' to include the remainder of the Sixth Generation consoles: the classic Xbox, the PlayStation 2, and the GameCube, as well as other contemporary games.

This is not as easy as it might seem, as the PlayStation 2 was getting new game titles for a whopping 13 years, and simply moving the year cut-off would encompass too many recent games as to reasonably be considered 'retro'.

The easiest way to resolve this seems to be having two year cut-offs instead of one: one for the platform itself, and another for game titles. This would of course apply to PC games as well.

[Anonymous No.6770548]

Xbox released in North America: November 15, 2001
Last Xbox game released: August 12, 2008

Gamecube released in North America: September 14, 2001
Last Gamecube game release: August 14, 2007

PS2 released in North America: October 26, 2000
Last PS2 game released: November 8th, 2013

GBA released in North America: June 11, 2001
Last GBA game released: November 15, 2007

If the platform release year was set to 2001, all the above consoles would be included. If the title cut-off was December 2007, every game for GC and GBA would be included, and only one game would be cut off for Xbox (Madden '09). PS2 is the odd man out here, simply because games were released for it for 13 years. A cut off date of December 2007 would exclude 616 of 4490 PS2 games. Given that the bulk of the PS2 library would still be included in the 'retro' definition, including virtually all of the most iconic titles, we think this is a reasonable compromise.

Baffling decision. If a change needed to be made at all, you should have gone with a rolling 20-year rule. It would make a lot more sense than this. Games from 2007 are retro? You think Madden 08 is a retro game? Absurd.

Not necessarily sad, but I feel like discussion of 16 bit and older games will be killed off, which is a shame; I think it would have been smarter to just make /v2k/ considering all the other boards that have been made in the past weeks. It would have been a compromise everyone could live with and like another anon said, slowboards are actually a good thing. Oh well, I suppose there's no use bitching about it now.

15 years isn't that long. Any time after the 90s is recent. Also culture stopped changing after we hit the 2000s. The 00s and 10s don't have any recognizable style to them hence why you can have 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s themed stuff but nothing like that for post-90s.

Unpopular threads on /vr/ already last less than 24 hours.
Now it's going to be harder to discuss pre gen 3 stuff or just lesser popular older stuff in general.
/v2k/ would have been a better idea, this will also result in a lot of meta shitposting about the rules (both old /vr/ users who are against the changes, and people demanding to change the rules "why isn't PS3 retro now? 20 years is too arbitrary, I played PS3 when I was a kid, you're just all old boomers who need to get with the times").
Not to mention gen 6 console wars will now dominate the board. You thought 5th gen console war spam was bad, huh?

Video games post the Dreamcast have much different styles and design philosophies. This is as absurd as going to place for classic films (20s-50s) and asking "So when are you adding 80s films? Those are old." It's an entirely different era with entirely different philosophies.

I am actually fine with adding somex next gen stuff to the definition - but 2007?! That's only 13 years from now! Not exactly what I would call "retro". Just to give an idea, fucking PORTAL came out that year. Also prepare for lots of Halo threads, truly a retro experience...

Frankensteining the rules doesn't help against this, you either have to allow a system but then weirdly cut off the date of a game playable on that old system or face very modern style games being declared "retro".

That can only be solved by seperating into an extra board like /v2k/

Again, these rules are complicated and absurd. Before it was a simple "These consoles are retro. Anything afterwards is not." Now it's this janky arbitrary shit that's confusing and weird, and I don't see how it'll be enforceable.

What about homebrew? Before homebrew for retro consoles was all greenlighted because retro console. Now, what, it's this weird "OK on certain consoles but on others it needs to pass a certain year date"? Building on that, if we're going to follow the idea of each year new stuff gets added to this board, then you've turned it from a "retro video games" imageboard, to just a "not brand new games". On surface it's the same, but it absolutely isn't.

That's moreso a problem with setting a year as the cutoff date rather than a console generation: Time keeps moving so anything can be considered "retro" sooner or later Although I'd argue that 6th gen was the last time before trends like heavy emphasis on online became a thing, but I digress.
The real issue is that the PS2 and PC cutoffs: It needs to be before HD consoles/the Wii released, otherwise will shitpost (as they are doing now.

This board is confusing BECAUSE it's called "retro".

The first and prime definition of the word retro is
>something new made in the style of old.
So say, for instance, Bloodstained Curse Of The Moon 2, a 2020 game inspired by NES games that's retro.

Only with time did "retro" gain a new definition:
>actual old games
This most likely became the case because a lot of people couldn't make the difference anymore between "something new made in the style of old" and "something actually old" (for VG it's often easy to tell but not for other things like furniture etc), so the word got misused to the point it gained a new definition.

Both definitions are valid, but by calling this board "retro" and pretending that one of the definition of the word doesn't exist, the prime definition at that, you're not only making this board even more confusing but you're contributing to the general misceptions of the word "retro".

tl;dr: Either you accept "new games made in the style of old", or this board should be called "Old Games", not "Retro Games".

The comic books people have solved this issue long before us. I get video games are young, but the idea of retro games being "anything made over 10 years ago" is bad. It should instead be viewed as an era, permanent and stand-still. This is what /vr/ should be, a board to this specific era of video games.

Games from 19XX-1999 all had general design philosophies, recurring elements, structures, and so on that all unify them. It was a wild west of innovation along with refinement. Games made in the 6th Gen (Dreamcast excluded since it was an odd one out) would go into a much different direction with their trends and gameplay elements.

I understand and respect this decision, but I don't quite agree with the way it has been handled.

First, we've been given a big group of new boards, so it's odd to me that a second retro board that handled ps2/gba era games wasn't created to compliment the existing board, it certainly is a large enough topic.

Second, retro is obviously a very catch all and nebulous definition, but as I see it "retro" gaming is very tied to a lo-fi aesthetic that the ps2 era onwards did not fully capture (until they intentionally started invoking it as a specific genre.)

I know some will argue that I'm being nitpicky or semantic, or maybe the opposite in that I'm using vague definitions, but the lack of a codified language in seperating these eras doesn't invalidate the clear differences in the subject matter.

TL;DR- Retro is a catch all for a very specific era, a second board for ps2 era games would have been a better fit.

Really? Gen 6 had more of a focus on story/cinematic experiences, single player adventures over score and points, the death of the arcade genre. While I wouldn't call it bad at all, it's a definite shift. I would only say early Gen 6 titles (very early, since many of its design philosophies started appearing at the end of Gen 5) would really fit, and mid-to-late Gen 6 was a much different beast.

Gen 7 was where the really cancerous ideals and practices started though.

Why bother splitting the 6th gen by an arbitrary year? You guys have been letting the doom general discuss about mods, maps, and sourceports that were made well past the 2000s.

Not completely no, only as a direct continuation of what the PS1 era started (Resident Evil, MGS, FF7, etc).

imo the real game design mentality shift came in the next generation, the higher the budgets got, the "safer" game designs got and all the more shitty monetization schemes came with it

Do it so I can start trolling Gamecube fans instead of just N64 fans. It'll be funny. Also remove the arbitrary ps2 exclusion. there's not many games released past 07 people would want to discuss and it won't dissuade retards from shitting up the board like they do with fifa 05 for PS1.

[Anonymous No.6771405]

It makes sense to add consoles as time moves forward but drawing a line dividing the games on those consoles is pants on head retarded. Its confusing, arbitrary and only going to start fights. Especially when silly shit happens like the Japanese release is "retro" but the American one is not because they cane out on opposite sides of the line.

We all obviously recognise that this board and 6th gen because of how close it is to modern games are simply incompatible, you get into Halo and Crysis territory, it simply does not work.
Nothing against 6th gen and beyond, I'd actually visit /v2k/ regularly too, but it simply does not fit /vr/.

Disagree. Dreamcast came out before 2000, has many arcade style games that compliment older game design, and it's a tiny library anyways so it isn't like it overwhelms the board with its existence, like the PS2 would. It's also the last SEGA console so it would keep all of SEGA's consoles on one board.

It should stay here as the quirky exception.

Devils advocate here, but the arguments I have seen that feel legitimate are that the monetization practices that define the modern gaming landscape are largely absent from the ps2 onwards, as well as the online systems still being relatively primative compared to how all encompassing they have become.

The other would be traffic to /vr/ is already quite slow, splitting the two would make two slow boards instead of healthy traffic to this board.

Also, "retro" itself is pretty vague, it's hard to argue against the definition if you're going purely on the age of the games.

PS2, Xbox, Gamecube, and GBA are retro. No arbitrary cutoff for games because of how old some games are. PS1 had games released for it in 2004, and those are considered retro. Dreamcast had games for it released all the way into 2005.

Moreover, look at how the majority of people in this shithole don't know when a game came out. We have people posting PC games from the 2000/2001 thinking they're retro (speaking of which, you need to settle that too), and then back peddle saying they count if they're Win 9x compatible. Either the entire library counts, or none of it counts.

I'm sorry mods but this is just a plain fucking bad idea, and this thread and the state of /vr/ for the last few hours should be proof enough of it. Having arbitrary cutoffs for platforms is stupid, be it console release date or last game released date. For example, let's say I want to talk about Twilight Princess since it came out in 2006. What is stopping me from discussing the Wii version of the game instead of the Gamecube version since both came out before the proposed 2007 cutoff?

I don't like the name all that much, but the general concept of /v2k/ as a board is a way easier solution to handle this than just throwing random dates around and saying "Yes, this is fine". You made four other video game boards this month, what problems would a fifth cause?

There's a much easier solution to most of the problems with /v/, which is (as bad as it sounds) just splitting the boards into /v/ - video games and then transform /vp/ into /vn/ - Nintendo video games, which includes all things related to Nintendo and Pokémon. /v/ becomes less of a shithole due to the lack of smashfags and underage kiddies shitposting, and they're happy to have a containment board. /vr/ wouldn't need to change anything, so everyone here wouldn't have any reason to complain about the deadline of what determines "retro", which seems to be a unanimous opinion here based on the reactions I see every time someone brings it up. No need to create any new boards, which saves the site money. Everyone would be happy, and it's a simple solution.

No, I'm saying that a particular person's definition of retro never changes. There's not objective unviersal retro. It's entirely subjective.

Therefore, it's not an argument about "what is retro" but rather 'whose 'retro' are we going to discuss?"

People in their 20s, 30s, 40s all have different definitions of retro that won't ever change for those particular definitions. My own personal retro ends with the 5th gen because I was born in 1985. Is /vr/ about MY retro? That's the only thing that can be discussed objectively.

Let the platform cutoff be anything conventionally considered to be "6th gen", i.e. before Xbox 360.

I honestly don't see why a game cutoff is necessary. Sure there are PS2 games released up to 2013, but how many of those games are RELEVANT? Sure some faggot might shitpost a Madden 13 thread every once in awhile but it's not like it's going to take over the board. Most of those 616 games are shovelware that simply isn't interesting to talk about, even in a bait context.

IMO the right move is to just say anything that released on a 6th gen console for simplicity's sake, and any game up through 2007 for PC.

"Muh childhood" is literally the definition of retro. And it's different for different generations. And it sure as fuck doesn't move in time for particular people. For those who were 20 when Halo came out, Halo will never feel retro even in 2050s. That means that if a board caters to their tastes, then Halo is not allowed, and if it doesn't, then so be it, but there's fuck-all to argue about here.

[Anonymous No.6771927]

I'd honestly prefer a new board for the PS2/XBOX/GC/GBA stuff as I think /vr/ should be preserved as is. Due to the age of systems allowed on /vr/ it naturally has it's own feel or style of posting if you prefer and I don't think that should be fucked up to allow newer systems in. A new board would be the best direction to go in so everyone has their own space as we know what happens when things are mixed too much (/v/)

That's my point though. What makes Twilight Princess (GC) more retro than Twilight Princess (Wii)? What makes Guitar Hero 3 (PS2) more retro than Guitar Hero 3 (PS3)?

What's the point? This is just going to quicken the rate at which this board is already becoming /v/ 2.0.

In practice, someone with control of the board must enforce an arbitrary definition either from their own taste or going by the majority of posters. It's an arbitrary choice. Do we want posters in their 20s? in their 30s? In their 40s? THAT's the question, now whether PS2 is retro in some universal absolute sense, which is an idiotic concept.

What is "retro" depends on the generation and not the passage of time. People born in the 80s have one retro, people born in the 90s have a different retro, and so on.

This is not a question of whether PS2 is universally retro. It's a question about what posters--from which generation--the board is for. It's an arbitrary choice, just like making a Pokemon board is an arbitrary choice and Digimon players have no say.

A generation's definition of retro never advances. For a guy born in the 80s, Halo 3 will never be retro even in 2050s. So don't look at the calendar. Either conduct a poll and see how old the majority is (stuff that came out before they hit 20 is their retro)--or just pick an arbitrary cutoff and enforce it.

PS2 can not be retro in the absolute sense. This is meaningless. Retro only exists for particular generations, is different for each generation, and doesn't advance with time for that generation.

I dunno, after long enough I probably will. Gaming changes. Tastes change, and what's popular changes.

Cut-off years for games? Only PC needs this.
Every console only received a handful of semi-high caliber games (namely God of War 2 and SMT titles) past their prime, and it was primary low-level ports or homebrew projects.
Even in today rules cut-off year means nothing in console world.
Hell, even in PC it means nothing because Hitman and Win98. Remember that?

New rules should just include every released content for that system without year as a factor. With consoles it's very easy.

The problem is PC.
It seems PC games counts by its OS and not years, so everything that was released or even include support for WinVista should be excluded.
That way we won't get stupid threads about Crysis or Oblivion.
I hope, no one will argue that WinXP is retro, right?

The parameter depends on the person and not on the current date. For some it is retro and for others it isn't, the main difference being what generation those people belong to. PS2 feels retro for people who were kids when it came out and will never feel retro for those who were already adults.

Hey mods, if you're going to do something incredibly stupid and kill /vr/, you might as well make the Wii retro too since it can output 240p and has the Virtual Console which inherently makes it more retro than the Xbox.

While the sentiment is admirable and perhaps long overdue, I feel like /v2k/ would be a better option. /vr/ has a VERY firmly cemented culture due to its fixed scope and will absolutely struggle with now being able to cover practically double the amount of games. You're going to invite a whole host of shitposting by causing this sudden culture conflict where new guys from /v/ come in and get into fights with /vr/ oldfags about SotC and FFX and the like. Much better in this case to have a whole 'nother board where this field of games can exist in peace, especially since here you have bizarre discrepancies like the Wii's early library and tiptoeing around the later PS2. Personally I hate how hard it is to have Neverwinter Nights threads or discuss any of the other World of Darkness games on /v/ so I'd kill for /v2k/.

Also reminder to everyone else ITT that 4chan.org/feedback exists if you want to make your opinion known in a more formal way that the mods are much more likely to notice.

I'm all for allowing 6th gen, but I really hope you reconsider or clarify the PC cutoff date. 2007 would allow games such as World of Warcraft (2005) and Team Fortress 2 (2007). I think we can agree that neither of those two is "retro" in any sense of the word since they're still very active, popular, and get regular updates. I'm sure there's other such examples that I just can't think of right now.

The PS2 had a 128 bit drive ffs. It is the last retro console due to its obscene fetishized notion of bit count.
Everything after the ps2 is the same blob of “cpu, gpu, and ram” speeds. There is absolutely no characterizing distinction between the ps3, ps4, and soon ps5. Same with xbox 360, xbone, and xbox x.

At this point it's just snowflakes who are asking for /v2/ but with fewer posters.

In 2010 "retro" games like FF7 were only 13 years old, the same age something like Bioshock is now, and the ultimate cutoff to retro defined as pre-2000 was only a decade. The PS2 is two decades old now, if you went back to 2010 not even DOOM 1 was out two decades prior. The 2000 cutoff only becomes more arbitrary as time pass, cope boomers.

THE DREAMCAST SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN RESTRICTED IN THE FIRST PLACE, AND EVER SINCE THEY USED 8TH GEN AS A JUSTIFICATION FOR ALLOWING IT THEY'VE JUST OPENED THE DOOR FOR EVERY FUCKING RULESFAGS TO SCREECH THAT THEIR GAMES SHOULD BE RETRO TOO.

First it was the monolithic generals taking over half the board, now it's some fucking mods who don't understand what retro means. The best video game board is going to become the worst.

Either
1) Middle ground /v2k/ board, or
2) Rolling 20-year limit
Both of those options are better than suddenly allowing 7 years of underage vidya into our paradise.

[Anonymous No.6772979]

You should just make the game cutoff date 2005 instead of fucking 2007. There's only a handful of noteworthy PS2 games that would get excluded (e.g. God Hand and Okami) and hardly any Gamecube or Xbox games. Or hell, just make the general rule "15 years", that way you don't have to constantly update the rules for what's allowed and what isn't. Halo 3 and Super Mario Galaxy came out in 2007. I know they wouldn't make the cut because they're on the 360 and the Wii respectively, but contemporary PC games and multiplats like Crysis and Bioshock would, which just seems ridiculous.

Retro isn't about age, it's about era, which doesn't change. Retro games were already retro as soon as they came out, people just didn't have the word for it until the later 90s.

It's like how around 1600, people started using the term "medieval" to refer to the time around 500-1500, and it still refers to the same period today. We don't say that now World War I is part of medieval history just because it was over 100 years ago.

You guys made a mistake with this one, moderating this board will be a nightmare now. You will have to keep checking which PS2 games are retro and which aren't every time you receive a report.
This will also not solve the begging issue, the same way many people thought /vr/'s original rules were "not fair", the same will happen now, and 7th gen kids will start questioning the rules and demanding a closer cut-off date to include 7th gen as well.
Nobody asked for a mobile board, nobody asked for a multiplayer board, nobody asked for a handheld board, but /v2k/ was a popular requested board, as it'd solve both problems in 1.
Now you will have a semi-peaceful board turned into a 24/7 battlefield, hard to moderate, and you still haven't solved the issue that 7th gen is also difficult to discuss, as is 6th gen.
/v2k/ would have solved all the issues, you fucked up.

[Anonymous No.6773294]

>>6770545
Remove /v/ and create two boards for everything between the 6th gen and the gen before the current one, and another one for the current and upcoming generations. This way 1-5th gen fags won't be buried in threads for more recent games, 6-??th gen fags will have a place for relatively old games and consoles, and the retards obsessed with the drama surrounding the current and upcoming gens (aka half of /v/) will be contained in a single place.

Why can't we just separate them like the golden and silver era for different boards? opening up to gamecube, ps2, and post 2000s PC games will drown out any discussion of SNES or PS1 titles, especially with Smash Melee and Persona 3 in that bunch, i don't mind talking about 2000s titles at all, but it'd be sad seeing very little of NES or SNES discussion, there's not many places you can talk about that. also we'll have to deal with these sorts >>6773205

Seems like a majority of /vr/ is actually unironically zoomers... now the overrepresentation of 5th gen games and the hatred of 6th gen makes sense.

Most people on /vr/ are 20 year olds who grew up playing 6th gen but now want to be "wow retro is soooo cool!" contrarians, 5th gen is the perfect "retro" generation for them. Basically the same as their 6th and 7th gen games, but more triangular so that makes it cool.

You can put effort into a thread but still have it be drowned out due to the fast moving nature of more active boards. I've come across many interesting threads on /v/ only to realize I found them too late and they're already archived. The problem is all the low effort shit like comfy SNES, Genesis etc threads will stay up because of their popularity, it's the more obscure discussion that will be drowned out. Like fuck man there are separate boards for strategy and fucking multiplayer games but they couldn't make /v2k/?

Cite your sources. The current definition exists nowhere outside of /vr/, and even that definition changed because we used to not allow 5th gen games. If you want to differentiate by era then actually do so because video games are actually divided by eras instead of using vague nebulous terms like "retro."
And that's notwithstanding the fact that the entire board misuses the term "retro" anyway. Undertale and Sonic Mania are retro games, Earthbound and Sonic 3 are not.

I like plenty of GC, PS2 and XB games, but it's not worth allowing discussion of all the games that spawned from the negative culture shift that occurred during that era. Homogeneous military shooters and the focus of the industry leaning more on marketing than product quality got their first major foothold in this era. For those reasons alone, Dreamcast/1999 should remain the cutoff.

By your 2007 cutoff logic, the following titles won't be able to be talked about, despite being some of them being among the most important games of that generation:
GTA Liberty City Stories
GTA Vice City Stories
^ - PS2 versions of both are 2008+
Ghostbusters game (last-gen version is a completely different game from the PS360 one)
Dragon Ball Infinite World (aka Budokai 3.5, the best version of Budokai)
Cowadooty 5 (World at War)
The final Syphon Filter game
Silent Hill Shattered Memories
Silent Hill Origins
The only PS2 MotorStorm game, and a fucking great one at that - Arctic Edge
MOTHERFUCKING PERSONA 4
6th Gen version of Splinter Cell Double Agent aka the only good version of the game, it's a completely different game from the PS360 version and was actually made by the Chaos Theory team
The last game in PS2 Tomb Raider Trilogy - Underworld
Shin Megami Tensei Raidou Kuzunoha 2, can talk about first game but not the sequel because of arbitrary dumb cutoff, epic.
Star Wars Force Unleashed, similar to Splinter Cell Double Agent and Ghostbusters, it's a completely different game from the PS360 version and is actually vastly superior to it's "HD" counterpart in all aspects other than graphics.
Mercenaries 2, we run into same problem as Raidou 2, can talk about first game but not the second because of arbitrary cutoff, epic.

As you can see, the 2007 cutoff is arbitrary and fucking RETARDED.

I disagree with the game-specific cutoff date only because it will just introduce endless retarded rules lawyering by the autists who already shit threads up with that kind of nonsense. I can already see it now.
>That game released in January 2008, it's not retro!
>Ah, but the Japanese version was released in December 2007!
>But you're talking about the American release, so that's not retro!
>What difference does it make, it's the same game!
>But the American release had extra/removed/changed content so it's not the same! You can only discuss the Japanese version!
And so on.

A 2007 cutoff for PC games makes sense enough because PC has always had to rely on game dates, but for consoles having a game date cutoff is just inviting this kind of nonsense nitpicking and you KNOW it will happen.

Ambivalent. I'm not a native /vr/ user and my only actual interest is a place to discuss early '00s games. This place being /vr/ is fine with me but it also makes me wary of the possibility that usual /vr/ content will be choked out as a consequence.

Because the one in the middle was designed for SD resolutions on CRT TVs and was developed for a video game console, while the one on the right was designed for HD resolutions on HDMI TVs and was developed for an Internet-connected "multimedia entertainment system."

20 years old, to the day, no matter the platform, that would be a better approach. 20 years encompasses a HUGE amount of changes in videogames, so I think that'd be a fair compromise. A game from 2002 is generally not going to be much like any game from 2020, let alone the future of 2022, expectations and trends will not be the same.

[Anonymous No.6774417]

1999 was a perfect cutoff for games, hardly anything major released for gen 5 after then and with the exception of the dreamcast it pretty clearly seperates gen 5 and 6th.

2007 just doesn't fucking work to try and fit in gen 6. It's too nebulous to try and make a good and clear cut off. Like you come up with 2007 as a cutoff so as not to exclude shit like Twilight Princess and God of War, which also includes 2007 PC games like fucking TF2, Bioshock and Crysis, which are games for the 360 which was 2 years old by this point.

Do I even need to ask if the mods even care about this shit? Just fucking make /v2k/ and fuck off from here. It's much better to just lump gen 6 and 7 and that era of PC gaming into its own board rather than to just try and surgically remove gen 6 from that decade and place it in with what we've already been discussing just fine here until you idiots started catering to a single digit number of GBA spammers.

Exactly, A Wii is just a slightly upgraded GC with motion controllers; and you can run GC discs and controllers directly on a Wii, so does that mean you could post about the Wii then? Same goes for (certain models) of the PS3, which could play PS2 titles; Fat Ps3 had PS2 hardware, then later ps2 models used buggy emulation, and all later models after that scrapped ps2 support entirely. This will become a hot mess. Should just create a /nqr/ (not quite retro) for that stuff and re-evaluate in a decade or so.

Your tone reads as if you disagree with me, but then you write this
>Board culturesshould be maintained for a reason
I think you're confused.
If the board didn't want those threads to exist, they wouldn't. Just because you personally don't agree with it, yet ironically choose to gravitate towards and focus on those specific threads means nothing.
As long as it doesn't break the rules, it is allowed and the community decides what lives and dies, by their choice of posting in those threads and by virtue of reporting offending content that breaks the rules.

I can't agree with this notion of trying to snuff out discussion just because the majority holds a different opinion than you do. And observation bias holds no value here either. There's no reason the posts you dislike can't co-exist with the posts you do like. I suggest you spend more focus on making and reading the posts you do like instead of intentionally focusing on the ones you dislike and/or not making on topic good posts.

I'd almost be okay with this change as these consoles are still composite and made to be played on a CRT when they released, and DLC wasn't big yet. But my issues are the games that get included from the PC end of things that still get daily threads of /v/, the PS2 library in volume outweighing the largest retro libraries until now combined, and the abundance of new IPs introduced that are still relevant and discussed regularly on /v/ and /vg/ such as DMC and KH

I trust team 4ch will know what to do. It's going to be instated, the initial wave will be horrible because people will try to make it so on purpose, but once things settle after the initial change, the board will represent what the new norm will be.

Been here going on 6 years, the past 2-3 quality dropped significantly, the last 6 months I've logged on only once a week.

My naive hope is that this will curb shitposting. It's probably the MOD's hail mary play on 4th down to try to win the game, if this fails /vr/ is lost forever, but it would have lost anyway at the rate it was going if they didn't try a hail mary play.

Admins are making the right choice. It's so pathetic that people think this will ruin the board, as if it was soooo important they could make their weekly "A Link to the Past is the best / is overrated" thread. This board fucking sucks because no one ever cared about obscure retro games and it's great that now we will be able to talk about more games than the usual dozen, even if it'll just be the same old dozen 6th gen games in addition to the same old dozen titles we currently talk about. I'll take a MGS2 thread or Ico thread over the millionth Super Mario 64 or Donkey Kong Country thread, at least it's something new to talk about.

As this thread has shown, most of the opposing posters are literal zoomers afraid of 6th gen being retro because it makes them feel old. Before that, /vr/ was their stomping ground to feel like they're le cool sekrit retro gaymurs. It's not surprising zoomers are dumbfucks who don't actually pay attention to how games evolved and how generations differed from one another. Because 6th gen was the first gen they grew up with, they think gaming has constantly plateaued since then, when really it was 7th gen that games stagnated.

Listen up Mod man. If you want more advertising streams and therefore cash for whoever the fuck owns this place, /v2k/ is the answer. I know you think you have boards like /v/ on the steady cortisol drip, but people pissed af all the time through shitposts don't buy stuff or follow ad links. Only sperglords get off on shitposting and they don't have the disposable income to support your advertisers.

If you're making a WISE decision for the ad revenue or money making of 4chan, /v2k/ is the only real answer. Have a blessed day and please think this through. I love 6th gen which means if /v2k/ existed, I'd be hanging out in 2 boards regularly, generating twice the ads.

/vr/ is going to need someone to have the single allowed meta thread that explains how to foster good discussion and highlight bad examples. You're absolutely right about the overrated threads becoming more and more common. And why is that? Why do these threads pop up and persist? Could it be that people post in them rather than ignoring them, causing them to fall off the board? I think so. If people care so much about the quality of the board then they should learn how to maintain that quality by following the way of the imageboard that has been true forever. Other boards that won't be named have gained popularity and speed but have maintained the spirit and thus their quality. It's only the ones that don't know better that fall.

Ignore posts you dislike, posting your disagreement in them does nothing but keep the thread alive and encrouage them to be reposted.

Because I'm still young, even a "zoomer" by definition. The 6th gen was absolutely huge and because of the 7th gen being so bad people rocked ps2 slims into the 2010s, and with the Wii supporting Gamecube games they still had fucking Gamecube games forever at renting places and shit before they died.

Personally I think yes, the rest of 6th gen besides Dreamcast is retro now, but it really should get it's own board because of how huge and impactful it is. I also think it that when this rule is figured out it should probably be set in stone, marking the end of an era where consoles were born to be played on 4:3 CRTs.

You're out of touch with reality. Retro literally has to do with the passage of time. The Brady Bunch was not retro in the '70s, but 20 years later in the '90s it was retro as hell. Every aspect of pop culture becomes retro as the culture progresses through time, and that includes Halo. In 2050 you better believe that PS4, PS5, ect will be considered retro.

I always tell people that the best part about being a generation or 2 behind is that the evaluation is already done. When the N64 was out, I was playing legitimately only the best of the best SNES games because you knew which ones were good and you could get them for less than half price due to the generation shifting and good games being more popular thus less in demand/more supply. Feels good.

I fucking hate that people believe change = good. People do not understand the old saying 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it.' /vr/ was fine. I can't wrap my mind around why they would change a successful board like /vr/ while letting actual legitimate cancer like /vg/ persist. /vg/ is so fucked up that I think people could legit do a psychology thesis about its users.

But hey. Why not change things for the sake of changing things? Why not try to force /vr/ into being something it is not? Why the fuck can't people make new things for themselves? Why is it always piggybacking on the success of something that came before it and riding it into the fucking ground?

/vr/ was successful. Definitely so when you compare it to the other video game boards. The board itself is still really young too. Make a new board when a need for it arises. /tg/ made a quest board because it was NECESSARY. It's sad to see /vr/ mods are just going to preemptively shit the bed.

you have to understand you're dealing with manchildren in profoundly arrested development, they use this board as a kind of group therapy session for people who are afraid of the very concept of time passing. They resent being responsible in their adult lives and long for the days when they could play vidya for 14 hours at a time. It's got to be tough for them, have a little sympathy. Let them get the shitposting out of their system and then when they're going to be calm and productive, they can be invited back to the board to participate.

Is the implication here that game legacy is as follows

And that people gather in discord to reminisce about war. That's bad ass.

In any case, gatekeeping of this kind of an imageboard is stupid. It can't be done by the rules, it has to be done by the community itself without direct power/influence. At least that's how it's always been here. The rules have to be as close to objective as possible where any semblence of subjectivity is still only going to be enforced by the mods IF enough of the community reports it, not at their(mods) own discretion.

While fragmentation is a bad solution, it can't really be helped when you're one of the most popular boards on one of the most popular sites that holds a topic that is not only broad from the start, but ever expanding. While the speed only picks up.
/vr/ isn't going to have that problem for a long time / many generations.
There's inherently almost nothing new to talk about which stifles the speed already. There are not going to be new genres, etc.

You seriously need to have some fucking leadership on this website.
Just because the new generation of consoles is coming around, doesn't mean that everyone needs to stick up with the times. Having an artificial cutoff like December 2007 means 7th generation consoles are retro, like the Xbox 360 (2005), Wii (2006), and even the PS3 (2007).

Don't forget the PS2 could output 240p, and even it's standard resolution was below 480i (512x448, interlaced). Fact is, most people still played on CRTs in 6th gen. It wasn't until 2005 that there was a massive drive to get everyone to adopt HDTVs.
>can't think of a single PS2, Xbox, or Gamecube game that was designed to run in 16:9, even if a lot of them supported it.
Plenty did, but often it was haphazard. Many games would expand the field of view, but some would just crop it. A lot of games had anatomically correct models in 16:9 while HUD elements would get stretched. And then you the PS2 and Gamecube that often required pressing a button combo in a short window of time to activate 480p because it was assumed everyone was still on a CRT

Why are people here so hung up on the 1999 cutoff? 2000-2004 was stylistically closer to 1998-1999 than 2005-2009. In 2000-2004, you still had pop punk, dial up, 90s cartoons airing new episodes, little to no social media, American Pie movies, etc. 2000-2004 was like the last breath of the 20th century.

I didn't say it was a good thing. Reagan was a bad president, and a bad person. But he was a 20th century icon, and he was alive for almost the entire century, so his existence made 2000-2004 feel more like the 20th century.
