I have been going backwards in time with movies finding all the gems. Many have been forgotten about. I am now doing this with games. I am noticing that older games (in general) are more fun. Some, maybe 10 or so years old, seem to even have better graphics. And it’s not even a nostalgia thing as these are titles I have never played. For example “Alien Isolation”. I never played it, don’t remember it but it’s awesome. There are a number of such examples, “Titanfall 2” being another one.
As someone who grew up with gaming, this is a new paradigm where the newest and latest is likely not “better” than something in the past.
I attribute this to a severe lack of creativity in the industry due to wokeness (like in Hollywood) as that creates a small tribe of people who tend not to let others in. So it’s the same shallow pool of ideas.
Lack of competition in the AAA space is another issue. When large companies do not have pressure to innovate they will stagnate. In the indie space you will notice there is much innovation and creativity because there is a lot of competition.
I hope this paradigm shifts soon.
Like classic movies, older games have a unique charm that makes them incredibly enjoyable. Their simplicity, paired with creative design and challenging gameplay, offers an experience that modern games often lack. Titles like Super Mario Bros. or The Legend of Zelda focus more on pure fun rather than advanced graphics or complex mechanics. Playing these classics evokes a sense of nostalgia, taking us back to a time when gaming was straightforward and heartfelt. Sometimes, less is truly more, and older games are a perfect example of this timeless appeal. Hotel Master is an engaging and fun simulation game that puts you in charge of managing a hotel. The gameplay in this browser game https://say.games/en/casual/hotel-master is simple yet addictive, as you handle guest requests, manage rooms, and upgrade your facilities. The graphics are vibrant, and the mechanics are easy to learn, making it perfect for casual gaming sessions. It’s a great choice for anyone who enjoys time management or simulation games. However, the lack of deeper strategic elements might make it repetitive for more hardcore gamers. Still, it’s an enjoyable and relaxing experience overall.
