AI really is making everything shit (hexbear.net)
 

noticing it more and more. i like to play retro video games but i don't actually do it that often. 5 years or so ago i got a SNES mini and a playstation classic and one of those anbernac handhelds in the span of a year or two, so I was spending a lot of time reading lists online of games people thought were notable, underrated, good games for genre newbies, etc.

i have been playing games again recently so i have again been looking up games and the difference in content you get now is astounding. five years ago if you searched something like "best nes RPGs" or "obscure ps1 games" you would find lovingly handcrafted lists and articles by people who were passionate about it and wanted to share, make readers laugh, or ignite interest in something. Now there's like 20 different sites that each have ai generated "best (genre) games for (system)" lists for every system and genre combination possible, with generic game descriptions, list orders likely cribbed from one of those ranking sites, and nonsensical filler copy ("every RPG enthusiast loves the N64" type words just mashed together)

photographs are also no fun to take or look at anymore, accelerated by new ai image generation but honestly ever since smartphone cameras started automatically editing the shot out of your picture before it even showed it to you.

when i was a kid i wanted to be an author, glad i just got depressed and useless and never pursued it, considering what that space looks like today.

internet was a mistake

When I am asked what my favourite game is I usually immediately think of FTL and the original DOOM.

40 bucks a week, you aren't buying packs of camels from a real store, you're buying a freezer bag full from the trunk of a car

[Effort] Sinistar (1983) was a phenomenal game for its time. in c/games@hexbear.net

You should check out the trs-80 game draconian. Its like bosconian but with defender (you rescue people from the bases) and sinistar (you are chased by a boss enemy if you take too long.) If you like the atmosphere of sinistar you will also like draconian. The boss enemy is indestructible so the feeling of knowing its coming is really exciting. This game absolutely blew my mind when I played it as a kid in a similar way to sinister.

You can download it and other trs-80 ROMs here: https://colorcomputerarchive.com/repo/Disks/Games/

I don't know anything about trs-80 emulators, although I have played it on emulator in the past, I mainly played it on the actual hardware when I was a kid. Given what you wrote here I would really recommend checking it out!

You, there! Recommend me video games OR... in c/games@hexbear.net

a reddit post made me mad and i don't have a reddit account so i cant yell at them (www.reddit.com)
 

SALT you fucking idiots! it's so crazy that everybody is mad about the suggestion that it needs spices when they left out fucking SALT. have you had slices of grocery store tomato without salt??? have you had bocconcini or fresh mozzarella or similar kind of cheese without salt??? like i PUT pepper and i PUT olive oil on it, what more do these people want?

maybe dont completely fuck up the dish by leaving out SALT and you won't have people being like "this sucks, why doesn't it taste like anything" like sure adding cumin isn't a good solution but at least they recognize that there's no flavour.

instead its used as an opportunity to be defensive about being white on reddit

FUCK you

FUCK these people
