Well it depends, were you a kid during the 90’s? if yes then it’s just nostalgia, if you weren’t a kid in the 90s and you still think it was more awesome then today, then you are probably autistic/loner/nerd, because how can someone else’s youth culture give you this idea? You didn’t experience it, so It’s one or the other. You are either autistic or just old.

No, I really do think today's kids grow up in a shittier, more exploitative environment. Aughts kids were the last to get any sort of bullshit-free childhood. And that's only because the internet was still untamed; they could escape from 9/11 and all that associated garbage slowly rotting out meatspace. I feel today's youth have nowhere to turn that they're not being had.

Growing up a young boy in the 90s was absolutely goddamn fantastic because we were the main target audience for just about fucking everything that was being sold during that era. Nowadays there is nothing but disdain for boys to the point where they are cutting their cocks off and taking HRT at record breaking and astronomically higher levels than ever in history. Anyone who says growing up in the 90s wasn't better than today is suffering from an exceedingly clear case of "Fox and the Grapes"

I liked the clear delineation: IRL is IRL and online is online. Keep everything in its place and don't cross the fucking streams and you should have a reasonably good time. I still can't believe when I was a teen I didn't realize how fucking terrifying it would be to have the internet constantly threatening to drown your life every single waking moment. It's actually work to get away from it for any amount of time.

A lot of zoomers in here will tell you because you were a kid but it's actually true. 90s were just better for childhood.

There was a lot more mystery to things back then. Everything was physical instead of digital and you needed these magazines to get the latest scoop on games. There was no internet to tell you how to beat everything or reveal all the mysteries. You heard it on the playground, in a magazine, or not at all. One of your friends would be breaking their balls to beat some game and you'll be like, "Oh, I know how to beat that game.", or, "I know a code." That's because you had the power. Nintendo Power, motherfucker!

I'm 28 and the 90s was the best time. Everything else before and after seems obviously worse.
If I had to change anything about when I grew up I would just make myself be born a few years earlier so I could more fully experience the 90s.
The 90s (for Americans anyway) was after America's victory in the cold war and before 9/11. It was objectively a very unique time.

Most people from the 90s thought the PSX would fail at first. It just seemed way too much like Sony was another megacorp attempting a "Me too!" in the console wars. And a bunch of the older people remembered how that went for Mattel, Coleco, etc.

Because you're nostalgic. Even if it's not a time when you lived, you can still be influenced by the remains of the culture in your own youth. Old entertainment your parents bought. Reruns and rentals. Zeitgeist isn't so solidly divided by years. It bleeds into the future.

At the end of the day, you shouldn't waste time and energy comparing, just reminisce and enjoy.

Outside of technological progression, I think the biggest difference really lies in the music. Every generation had their own music & subcultures etc, in school you had the punks,skinheads,metalheads etc and the girls fawned over Duran Duran. Last big thing I remember was that little shit head Justin Bieber and One Direction, ever since those passed I don't have a clue what they listen to.

Hell, back in 2008 I was a volunteer firefighter. I went with one of the older guys to an elementary school to show and teach kids stuff. I was amazed at the clothes the kids wore; they all looked like mini adults. If you look at the shit we wore in the 90s its night and day different.

And now I've realized we're paying the fucking price for associating our online selves with real life selves; cancel culture. You can't say or do anything slightly outside of the mob rule without someone recording it and taking it out of context to ruin your life, or find something mean you said online and bring it up to the public. When back in the day, this was the EXACT reason using real life credentials to sign up for a website was looked down upon and you never gave anyone so much as your real name.

The real problems are inflated budgets, extremely long dev cycles, charging the customer at every possible opportunity, bigger companies buying up every smaller company, and sacrificing gameplay for spectacle.

...On top of making the female character the first game a lesbian for woke points they made the villain of the game a crazed butch lady who literally beats the protagonist from the first game to death because she hates men. Then the game tries to make you feel empathetic for her because beating people to death is okay as long as you're a strong womyn fighting agains muh patriarchy. They basically took whatever goodwill they earned from the first game's story and ruined it with SJW politics.

Again, you're talking about a single detail bloated game having a message it wants to tell. Big fucking whoop. I do not give a single shit about the story.
The other issues I brought up are industry wide. And if anything, the lack of variety they perpetuate only fuels your feelings that "woke shit" is taking over the industry, simply because we have fewer games now.

There's something to be said about a new board being apt and how rare 5th gen and earlier exclusive forums are, but at the same time the year 2000 is a terribly arbitrary dividing line, and it's been longer since the release of Playstation 2 now than Playstation had been out since the board was made.
The nature of gaming wasn't drastically different enough between 5th and 6th gen to justify recognizing a break---I'd argue there's continuity there, in that the ideas which had been introduced in 5th gen were finally realized to fruition in the way they were originally envisioned, which led to higher quality games. They're of the same ilk even though 6th gen was generally more refined.

All the controversy from stuff like Supersize Me, month old fries Youtube videos, and how nuggets are really made TV specials really damaged McDonald's public image.

When I first came into /vr/ I thought the same thing. I thought silly that two consoles that were released with only a year apart from each other had different treatment in /vr/. There was some discussion with the anons and then I decided to play some of the Dreamcast classics to see what was so different about it. And damn, it really is it's own thing. Not only the console has that more arcade-ish approach that was slowly discontinued by it's following consoles, but also an aesthetic and library of games resembling more the 5th gen than anything else.

I think a lot of that can be attributed to just how long the system was around. Early entries to the 6th generation where basically 5th generation games with more detail, but towards the end you started to get the more "cinematic" entries, and console shooters started their rise to industry dominance

That's actually arguable, I'm not going to lie that some major hardware/market/cultural changes occurred during the 7th generation, arguably more than the 6th vs the 5th.

>I think 7th gen was where this occurred and that for that reason that gen onward should never be considered "retro" in any other sense other than "decades old" years from now.

That's what we used to say about the 6th gen kek. Eventually in 5-10 years when even more shifts have occured, what's stopping them from adding the 7th gen to /vr/? I still think that /v2k/ and maybe /v7g/ would be a good solution that makes everyone happy. I just want my frens on 4chan to be happy, I love you people.

What makes McDonald's different is that it looked like it did since the 50s. Those other artifacts weren't as old nor generally iconic. Sure the minimalist trend influenced the redesign but to even go through a redesign indicates something went amiss.

The difference is console shooters generally weren't taken seriously until Goldeneye/Perfect Dark, and didn't get big until 6th gen with things like Halo. After 6th gen, more and more FPSs started getting designed with consoles and controllers in mind.

Definitely true, it's arguable that the biggest turning point is the 3rd generation as opposed to the 2nd generation.

He's my logic concerning the 6th generation, it's probably flawed but this is my reasoning:
>6th generation saw the solidification of the modern console market - Nintendo vs Xbox vs Playstation, which continues to this day (5th gen was Nintendo vs Sega vs Playstation, 4th was Nintendo vs Sega)
>Several franchises changed/died/were introduced. Fire Emblem came to the West, the Sonic vs Mario rivalry became more of a joke than anything, Pokemon hit its' stride, GTA became a household name, Halo and 'modern' FPS exploded in popularity)
>JRPGs became truly mainstream
>Hardware wise, there were no more CDs or cartridges (for consoles), it was all DVDs or those manlet discs Nintendo uses, Analog sticks became standard
>The death of arcades
>Online gaming becoming mainstream (well maybe this is more 7th gen, but as I remember there was A LOT more online gaming in the 6th gen than the 5th gen)
>Gaming in general becoming mainstream
>Emulators began to take off

Maybe I'm just a boomer but I feel as though while the difference between the 4th and 5th gen was bigger in terms of play style, the overall 'feel' of gaming and the culture surrounding it changed more between the 5th and 6th gen.

I think the issue is that people think "retro" means "old" when people were calling 16bit games "retro" even in the late PS1/early PS2 era.
I think we need a new categorisation, now gaming has pretty much been stagnant for a long time in terms of things like control systems and aesthetics. Think about it in terms of language:
16bit and earlier: Old English
CD systems, 32bit, 3D viable: Middle English
PS2 onwards: Modern English

The shifts in technology are smaller now compared to the massive technological advancements we saw in the 90s and early 2000s. Going from 2D to full 3D games alone was giant. Now new consoles aren't nearly as impressive or exciting, and I don't know what they could do to have another massive leap.

I think that's why there was already a tendency to call the 16bit, 2D, mostly cartridge based, consoles "retro" (or probably more likely, "old school" maybe even with a K) in that period.

Funny how you don't mention the next part of the first argument that highlights what's the point he is making.

>So... not much of a change?
The "cinematic" you all are referring to is FMV cutscenes, which were a change from previous "cutscenes" that were all in-engine 2D sprites moving around with a textbox underneath, which itself was a change from there being no textboxes, which itself was a change of there being virtually no non-gaming related scripting period (Pac-Man and earlier). It was introduced in PS1.

Yet this style of storytelling wasn't enough to form a decisive break for you between retro and not. Because you all have now committed to the logic of "it's not retro if things stayed the same from one generation to the next". And because of that, 5th gen is the last retro generation because FMV wasn't changed in 6th gen.

But I just told you it was---you got detailed interactive storytelling, on top of the FMV. It was done first in KOTOR, and then succeeded with David Cage games all the way up to Detroit Become Human.

So all this to say, you all really need to get a coherent argument together about what is and isn't retro, because this scattered nonsense you have right now is a mess to engage with.

Old English is a fundamentally different language.
Middle English is a transitory state between that and Modern English.
If it's just based on "old=retro" then what does it mean for Cave Story, which is an explicitly retro inspired game, but it itself is now retro...So how can it be "retro inspired"?
The point is that "old=retro" doesn't give us the language needed to discuss eras of gaming. I remember the 16bit era already being called "old school games" back in the late 90s and early 00s, meaning that Chrono Trigger was classed as retro/old school when it was about 5 years old.

The same way Elder Scrolls was inspired by Wizardry. You're talking about an indie developer choosing not to follow the trends of their day and instead returning to an earlier standard of gaming, which has happened all throughout gaming history after there were some standards to deviate from.
>The point is that "old=retro" doesn't give us the language needed to discuss eras of gaming.
I agree.

That's my thoughts on your post. Now, as far as what your post was meant to accomplish, I remain unconvinced. Because even in the early 1600s Modern English itself was still in a period of transition where vocabulary and semantics and spelling and even grammar to some extent still hadn't calcified into what they are now.

The reason why it's a ridiculous and deranged analogy and the same for talking about a "3-stage model" is that we STILL don't have anti-6th genners providing a coherent and well-reasoned rationale for what explicitly designates 6th gen as non-retro. As far as this debate is concerned, 6th gen could be late Middle English, while its opponents have already taken for granted it being early Modern English.

Of course not if the definition of retro is "older than 15 years," but then you can ask "why not 10?" "Why not twenty"? Is a thirty year old game 2xRetro? the issue with that definition is that it turns it into nothing more than a unit of measurement. If Crysis is retro, how can you ever say there's any other retro game with graphics even half as good? If Crysis rates 10/10 in graphics, then what is SMB? 2/10? It doesn't even have three dimensions, or shadows!

And perhaps they shouldn't. Because in many peoples' minds, "retro" means 2D and pixellated, which would disqualify 5th gen. And that's silly.

Then maybe "retro" isn't a good word and we need another set of words? This is all I'm trying to get across, and I've dancing from comparison to comparison and everyone's playing dumb to the idea that you can define anything at all.
I'm not saying I'm right on the nature of the definitions, I'm saying that we need to adopt a different way of defining it entirely.

The tactic I'm favoring at the moment is to show how 6th generation is a continuation of what was already present in 5th generation; if this is true, then it blurs the line between 5th and 6th generation, at least as far as the gaming elements go, which forces detractors to try and identify relatively arbitrary points of distinction like "online" or "DLC" or "primitive graphics" / "polygon count".
Maybe there isn't a huge difference between 6th and 7th gen. Maybe there isn't a huge difference between 6th and 5th gen. We already know there *was* a HUGE difference between 5th and 4th gen; yet 5th gen is "retro".
>This is my problem with the "it's just time" position. Its basically just a handwave of any effort to define anything.
And it shouldn't be used as just that, but nor should it necessarily be dismissed as a significant element.
I am in favor of not making the time argument the focal point, because I do not consider 7th gen to be "retro" and don't think it ever should be. I believe 7th gen did constitute enough of a break from the gaming past that 6th gen did not.
>Then maybe "retro" isn't a good word and we need another set of words?
Perhaps indeed. Or maybe new concepts which will be employed in the definition of "retro".
For example, "scale": that retro is necessarily small scale (due to hardware limitations) while non-retro is typically large-scale---but that falls apart as soon as you remember Daggerfall.
And we would go on and on discovering that a lot of the elements we assumed were relevant actually aren't. It would be time-consuming, but it must be done.
>I'm saying that we need to adopt a different way of defining it entirely.
I can agree to that. And I hope going forward the debate progresses along those lines, because we're currently not getting any closer to the truth.

I feel bad for anyone younger than me desu (i'm 29) I think the 90's was an amazing time to be a kid and I even think the 2000s was a good era to be a teenager in. The thing is, there's always a tradeoff. My parents aren't college graduates and worked basic desk jobs for the government. In 1995 my mom was 29 - they were on their 2nd house and had 2 kids. There is just no fucking way anyone under 30 today is buying a house and having 2 kids unless they committed every waking moment of their life to making money, had rich parents, lived in wyoming, etc. The path ahead for people in their late 20's now if you don't already have a family, own anything, etc is so bleak that I'd much rather have had less good video games as a kid and have been born in the late 60's or something

I honestly feel that even the early 2010s were a decent time to be a young adult in. Yeah, the recession began a couple of years ago, but I feel like the culture which had settled in during the second half of the 2000s pretty much either reached its peak from 2010 to 2013 or it evolved into something nevertheless rather inspiring. I feel like it was the youth's last hurrah before everything got derailed by the Hyperpolitical Turn of 2014.

Nah, 2010 was basically The Last Hurrah of the West. We don't make anything anymore, dude: our nations have become dangerously complacent, co-dependent on hostile foreign powers, and culturally self-destructive. And 2010 was absolutely the last year I can recall that you could jack-in to the internet and ignore all that shit for hours at a time.

I think that's because post-Myspace social media was still kind of young then. It's become a cliche to say it at this point, but Facebook and Twitter really did change the world.

I'm talking about in the long run. Yes, we won in theory. In the years following WWII, Eastern Europe traded one tyrannical oppressor for another, China fell to communism, France lost her colonies, and the sun set on the British Empire. America's new empire and superpower status would be instrumental in our current undoing. Although we were all right for the next few decades, the USSR's subversion (see Yuri Bezmenhov) and the clique that would gain control over the west in the postwar period would combine to lead our countries to their current status. Me and you are on the way to becoming persecuted minorities in the country that our ancestors built, helpless as our country slowly turns into Brazil. I guarantee you that if you could show America today to the GIs, they all would've dropped their weapons and hugged a German. I'm sorry if I'm coming off as a doomer faggot but think about it.

There's a lot of history between WWII, pinning everything bad that's happening today on WWII seems ignorant to me. Like you even mentioned the USSR's influence. If you're just talking about a fantasy alternate history scenario because the whole world would be different, that's one thing, but that's all speculation and likely would be worse. There's too many variables there to have a real answer. Also, you probably disagree with me on this, but I really wouldn't like the world to be more like Nazi Germany.

I agree. Too many variables, it's impossible to tell how things would turn out. It would be interesting to see how imperialism would've played out without WWII crippling Europe's and Japan's empires. I do maintain that a lot of the messed up aspects of today's society have their roots in KGB ideological subversion, which wouldn't have happened had the Soviet Union ceased to exist in the 1940s.

In the 90s there was a fuckload of Nintendo merch in general, then with the N64/Gamecube they totally stopped doing it.
Now its actually coming back with stuff like LABO, Mario Lego, that Nintendo amusement park and many other bits. Wouldnt surprise me if nintendo property movies were in the works again.

Really wonder why they ever stopped. I think their brand suffered from it.

No problem. Frankly I'd say many of the messed up aspects of today have more to do with social media and how it's changed our culture than anything else. I'm happy with many of the cultural changes that came after WWII, and generally feel things have been getting better up until just recently.

You look at it now, and it's all a lot more somber, store fronts all look more uniform, less creative in their choice colors, letter fonts, even the material in which the fonts are made of.

It was on its way there. Some of the best seeling games of 6th gen were GTA III (sandbox/open world) and Halo (FPS online multiplayer).
Vastly different from previous gens games, which were mostly ruled by platformers.

Halo's style of multiplayer and content packaging is almost completely alien to how multiplayer gaming is made now. You still had a dedicated campaign with crafted level boundaries and scenarios, and the multiplayer maps were still open ended but small arenas that weren't designed for competitive gaming primarily. Halo's model closely resembles Goldeneye in it's value package, but with the addition of online play. Mass multiplayer games don't resemble Halo in any way in their packaging of content anymore, which feels strange to say.

At least here in the UK, "victory" in WW2 is used as a reason we can't do anything to stop the decline, because to want to preserve a sense of what Britain was before the war makes you the people that Britain fought in the war. It doesn't make sense, but that is the rhetoric.

That’s a super retarded take. I love 60s/70s Rock and totally wish I grew up in that era where those bands and music was very much part of the world’s culture.
>inb4 music is different
A little, but the same thing applies 90s culture which include videogames. Even though people are fully capable of watching the same cartoons and playing the same games now, it’s not the same as experiencing those same exact things the same time as the rest of the world. Even though new pokemon fans can buy a copy of Red and Blue they will never experience Pokemania ever. And just because you weren’t a part of it doesn’t mean that they wouldn’t know what its like because “how can someone else’s youth culture give you this idea?”

Bottom looks 10x better, what are you smoking? Even as a kid I remember going to McDonald's and thinking how fucking disgusting it looked, and the garish use of white, red and yellow was depressing and institutional to me, like some kind of grungy highschool cafeteria. I've seen some ugly restaurants before but that bottom one looks legitimately nice and you're a retarded faggot who's stuck in 1988.

The issue is you're called a Nazi symathiser or a traitor for this, when it's just a simple fact. If you were to take an objective stance and compare the nation before the war and after the war, and then (knowing nothing about the war) use that difference to declare whether we won or lost, no one would say we won. We left the war weaker, poorer, and confused culturally. We even still had rationing for years afterwards.

This isn't even getting into the deification that the war has received where it's almost "the reason" the country existed at all, and was the greatest thing we ever did, which basically says we have reached our finale. The weird thing is you're regarded as "unpatriotic" if you say that WW2 wasn't that great in comparison to other feats and in fact our greatest moment is still to come. It's bizarre.

You're called a Nazi sympathizer because you're saying "we'd be better off if the Nazis won." You could say "we'd be better off if the war never happened" or better yet how you'd be better off if more specific issues were handled differently in the past 80 years. I suppose the fixation on WWII is understandable, but I can't see how you'd prefer a world where Hitler won without being a Nazi sympathizer and believing the world would be better off if they had lasted longer and had more influence. If you're acknowledging how the country was left weaker afterwards because of the destruction, getting totally destroyed and conquered wouldn't have made you better off. There's any number of other ways to express discontent with your country and the direction it took.

But it makes no sense. We lost the war to America (the destruction of the British Empire being an aim of the US shows that, as does the US military personnel in our country). I didn't even mention Nazis (Gemany also lost the war to America but also has the USSR feasting on the remains).
The winners of WW2 were the US and the USSR. Saying this does not mean anything of the sort unless you buy into the myth of the event.

Those old men are correct. There's nothing wrong with expressing dissatisfaction with the way things are going.
I honestly don't understand why you even came into this thread. Either you felt like getting fanny flustered or felt the need to defend your childhood. Which, while I admit it is mostly, but not all, subjective, seemed for all intents and purposes to be worse than the previous five. It's a very common sentiment.

I should have said the decade of your childhood, or whatever decade you associate yourself with. Even as a teen I could tell shit got worse after 2001, and again after 2007.

I was actually about to respond to that guy's post saying the kid could take the most alpha option a soiboi could take and press assualt charges against her.
But, if he did hit her back, it's self defense. He never touched her beforehand.
In either cases, just make sure you opt for a judge decided case, so the jury can't be packed with danger hair feminists that only pretend to want equality.
