  1. How far back do you have to go for fantasy novels to be good?

  2. Both of those are decades old. I was playing Heroes of Might and Magic 3 back in the year 2000. Still great all these years later.

  3. I just watch old ones from decades ago.

  4.  @Hardcore_Remixer  If you're into computer RPGs I recommend you play Might & Magic VI thru 8. The Mandate of Heaven, For Blood & Honor and Day of the Destroyer. Made by New World Computing, which was headed by gaming pioneer Jon Van Caneghem. Use the unofficial Greyface patch on all three games. There is also the MM6 - MM8 Merge Mod which you can play. Funny enough, New World Computing, which developed both M&M and HOMM, was based in Southern California, in the 1990's.

  5. I’m 36 and I know for a fact they are not made for me.

  6. Anything in the Xbox 360 and PS3 era isn't retro in my eyes. Retro to me is something that's at least 20 years old. Point being, there's plenty of stuff from 2006 - 2011ish that's still good. Call of Duty: World of War is still great, void of woke trash and it's not afraid to show some violence (not in The Last of Us Part 2 fashion). Sonic games are still safe, even though Sega of America is utterly woke. That's because Sonic games are developed by the often criticized Sonic Team over at Japan, while the actual quality varies, they're still better than most mainline modern American games. The Yakuza games are ones I can't recommend enough. Just finished Yakuza 6 which is Kiryu's last adventure and I had an utter blast with it. Demon's Souls on the PS5 is utter trash (because it is a poorly handled reboot), the original on the PS3 is still great, released back in 2009.

  7. It wasn’t as much of an issue until Sony Computer Entertainment became Sony Interactive Entertainment, which began when Sony moved to California.

  8. Just finished Armored Core VI the other night. Gameplay was solid and optimized. Made by the same company that created Elden Ring.

  9. The Peter Parker side of the game is fine. The Miles side.... not so much.

  11. What do you expect from Hollywood and left wing media that has tried to indoctrinate young men these past couple decades? Young women have been taught that 'men bad', young men aren't brave enough to confront Millennial/Zoomer aged women about these issues, so the problem persists.

  12. Did your kids play the PS5 remastered version? Because I don’t remember seeing pride in the original PS4 version of the game.

  13. Adam's kid or cousin Cherry was all I needed to know about the inclusion of diversity in Streets of Rage 4. Floyd is another garbage character, just put there to appease that small minority. Max, Axel, Blaze and Shiva are still cool, as well as the actual SOR1 - SOR3 characters.

  14.  @ValChronification  A lot of them also play Tekken.

  15. They made Peter look like 14 here.

  16. The Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, and China was devastated by Mao's Communist regime. Too bad this mindset didn't stay in the past.

  17. Boomers and Gen X made gaming. Millennials and Zoomers are pathetic in comparison.

  18. Sounds like you were born in the 80s like me.

  19. They made it 20+ years ago. I doubt any of the Boomers/Gen Xers that were at the company back then are there now.

  20. Last I checked, over 60 percent of America in the year 2023 is White. This doesn’t include Mixed/Bi-Racial (you are half White half Black) people, this is 100% ethnically Caucasian people with ancestry going to Western and Eastern Europe. That’s too many people the “woke” are offending, but it will hopefully crash in due course.

  21. That was a long time ago.

  22. Naughty Dog did this to themselves.

  23. There’s an old city building PC game named Pharoah dating back to 1999/2000. I suppose you don’t mean that particular game.

  24. Because they hate them.

  25. The New Colossus was cringe.

  26. This is one of the reasons why I shelved God of War Ragnarok. Kratos went from a proper antihero in the first several games to this soy weakling who cannot provide good advice to his son. In fact you felt overwhelmed by a certain female character who dominates Kratos, and he does little throughout the story to really stop her. In Spider-Man: Miles Morales, the story was handled poorly. It was yet another example of man bad, female good. Your female childhood friend who turns out to be the main antagonist intimidates Miles, to the point where he can’t really defend himself. Granted, he was a teenager, but the entire time I just felt humiliated playing as him. The young woman spews out the same feminist BS you see in every other modern Sony published game. After playing The Last of Us Pt 2, I can no longer trust Sony to give us anything of substance, and certainly not edgy.

  27. I just read books and listen to podcasts by independent creators. Cuts out a lot of the nonsense plaguing modern western entertainment.

  28. @@LadtheMad I already read books dude. But if you have a good one in mind you are free to suggest it.

  29. Just ignore the modern mainstream stuff and some newer indies.

  30.  @driddick7361  I’m in my late 30’s, I’m not exactly that young anymore. Even if I do take part, it will require the help of others. Our society has deteriorated to the point where socialism and communism are outright encouraged while critical thinking and freedom of expression are shunned. I’m just glad I live in the rural United States and not some dystopian hole like London and much of the UK. Harry and Callum are both looking more worn down and weather beaten. Can’t blame them, the UK in its current form doesn’t help bright young people to a better future.

  31. Armored Core VI.

  32. Because they are.

  33. Feminist viewpoints good, same decay you see in real life liberal cities, the list goes on.

  34. Some PS3 and Xbox 360 games still have good graphics. When you've been gaming for 30 years like me, "realistic" graphics shouldn't mean crap.

  35. As they have for decades.

  36. Soaps have been bad for decades.

  37. The original Warcraft 3 was great. Back when Blizzard still had merit and some of the best talent working for them. Warcraft 3 Reforged on the other hand was an utter disaster.

  38. Read up on Herb Sowell and the communists in Hollywood.

  39. That game being Spider Man: Miles Morales by the way. Marvel’s Spider-Man 1 did not feature MJ as a playable character.
