If your favorite video game of all time was released TODAY, how big would it flop/disappoint? - Yo

[卐卐卐]

This question is simply to highlight the faggy video game culture of never going into stuff open-minded-- reading guides, seething at any difficulty, min maxxing.




Would your game even be possibly created? Would it's team have been too large and ambitious and not full of troons? Prob wouldn't have been made.

Well my favorites majoras mask and plenty of people shit on it at the time but I imagine it would be a thousand times worst since people no longer know how to explore or read. It's still zelda so it'll sell but I imagine most play thoughs would end up like arin Hanson's hilarious awful attempt.

Definite floppy game

Hard for me to tell, with old-school Master of Orion. So many games have mimicked its formulas at this point that I don't even know how it would be received. It's like trying to imagine a gaming world without the impact of Civilization.

Outside of graphics and maybe length Max Payne 2 still holds up, it would be a more niche thing but I believe it would find it's audience among those of us of a higher class.

The riff raff public may not appreciate it but the patricians of society would, great pianists, intellectuals, male models, these people would all still love the game.

I think it would do great.

In fact, the remake is such crap that the original seems like heaven made. Like comparing the cathedral of Milan to a back-alley covered in piss and cigarettes.

Chrono Trigger? It'd probably do better than it did at the time. Mario RPG would destroy the other Mario RPGs and get sequels, finally. Pokemon Yellow would be seen as an archaic Digimon ripoff in this bizarro timeline and fail.

Planescape: Torment

Given how similar very story driven games at the expense of combat like Disco Elysium found a niche, Torment might sit in the same spot it did when it originally released, decent reviews but failed to find a large audience but gained a cult following. The dated graphics and heavy volume of text/reading as opposed to full voice acting might put off most zoomers but it would find its core audience
