PS1

>No auto save, have to actually invest time into the game until you reach a save point

>Games give 0 fucks about you being a retard who fucks up and has to redo the last 20 minutes

>Games are genuinely demanding of your attention and cognitive abilities to solve puzzles and manage resources despite the primitive technology

>Story is always to the point and full of environmental storytelling due to size constraints

>Average team size is 12 people, leading to games being a genuine artistic collaboration between real people

>You get a nice thick booklet telling you the controls and if you don't read it then GET FUCKED because there's no in game tutorials or handholding

>No quest markers, no minimap telling you exactly where to go and what to do when you get there, no constant popups

PS4

>Game auto saves every 3 seconds removing any tension concerning progress and giving the player one more reason to switch off his brain

>Games checkpoint you every time you enter a new room, meaning if you die you ultimately lose nothing not even your time

>Games are braindead timewasters a 3 year old could beat by mashing buttons, absolutely 0 brainpower required

>Story is meandering, poorly paced and full of the writers personal political statements about modern life to appeal to game journo's

>Average team size is 250+ people, leading to games being designed by committee and having absolute no SOUL

>Constantly assaulted by tutorials and prompts and glowing quest markers and highlighted objects and batman vision footprint tracker mode

With the video game market spreading so widely, and publishers being run by the fucks they are, you can't afford to get merely a few hundred thousand, or a couple million sales, and expect to be permitted to keep making games. The whole industry has been subverted.

Just find what you can enjoy and ignore the rest. Mine the libraries of the past to play the best.

The fact that nowadays half of the released games are remastered PS1 games shows that PS1 might in fact be the peak of gaming.

Also, love sekiro due to this, and now that and an assortment of PS1 games made most of my library.

>Conflating a console with a particular style of game design

The PS1 had games for idiots too, and if you're going out of your way to only play modern games aimed at idiots, that's kind of your fault. The chances are, if you pick up any Japanese game that's kind of niche, it'll feel like a throwback to the pre-7th gen anyway.

I kind of had that same situation with the PS2 where I didn't have a memory card for it. I think it was my first time getting the console and I didn't know that the box didn't include a memory card for it. Got impatient and just played Final Fantasy X all the way without much trouble until the Seymour Flux boss fight and lost there. Had to replay the game all the way over again and beat it once I got the memory card the next day. Yes, I played all the way through it without much sleep only to die to that bitch-ass boss.

I kind of miss memory cards because you can take them out and use them when you need it instead of having it stored on the console. You can store saves online at this point in the PS3 but I didn't trust Sony after the Playstation hack incident so I never bothered to make an account to give my credit information to them. If I wanted to buy a game that is online purchase only, I'd buy the credits from the store to use instead. I guess you can use external hard drives instead but I'd like something that was uniquely designed to work with the console that is usable instead of it being stacked with my other digital hoarded collection.

>No auto save, have to actually invest time into the game until you reach a save point

I agree with everything else, but this one is sub-optimal. The best is when games have a "hard and soft" save system.

<You can make a soft save but if you die, you go back to your last hard save, so you can still quit and take a break at any point in the game

Too many times I progressed past a save point just to realize the world or dungeon or whatever is not ending anytime soon but I made too much progress to just wipe it. A lot of times I just pause the game and leave it running while I go do something else for a while and come back later.

>>16932749

Do you manually save/loadstate, or is it automated when you load/exit a game? I'm usually paranoid about accidentally loading a state and losing progress, but that sounds pretty comfy if automated. Would be great for NES games.

That's what I've been doing for a decade plus now, and not just in regards to games. I do the same with movies, books, and television shows. I have a nice, comfy library of DVDs/games that I can put on, play/watch for a bit, and then go do something else with my time. I haven't bought a new console, I haven't bought any new games, I haven't subscribed to Netflix, I haven't done anything but sit back and enjoy a lifetime's supply of entertainment. Just the other day, I booted up my old PS1 and had a lot of fun. You are completely right, anon. Based advice a lot more anons should be taking.

>going mainstream was the reason why everything went to shit.

This happens every single time to whatever hobby. As someone who was into books far more than vidya, I saw this firsthand with this little thing called Twilight, which singlehandedly killed literature - over a decade later, and all it did was allow the gentrification of literature. You say women ruined everything? They sure did ruin literature: literally every fucking book now is a femcel power fantasy. Ever hear of Jamie McGuire? She literally writes a series of books about a stereotypical Chad figure who abuses the fuck out of her self-insert, and then simultaneously whines on her blog about how her daughter is being harassed, get this now, BY THE SAME EXACT SORT OF GUY SHE WRITES ABOUT. I posted a comment on this article, and she deleted it pretty swiftly.

>the gaming hobby being stigmatized as a pass time for basement dwelling, zits faced, neck beard losers is the best thing that could happen

I would say the exact same thing for books. It used to be that both games and books were for brains, nerds, geeks, whatever, but now?

I've read elsewhere some think that woke shit is dying, that we're gonna have a renaissance of quality, but I just can't see it. Am I too jaded? Fuck if I know. But at this point? I can't even be arsed to care anymore, really. Whatever happens, happens.

Been saying exactly that since I was a kid. Life gives us one blow after another.

>Not a single enjoyable moment left in life.

The only enjoyment I get out of life is the time I spend with this cat I adopted. Everything else is just time killing, no matter how much I try to think otherwise.

>while we continue spiraling into depression and suicidal tendencies until we inevitably pull the trigger.

I've been depressed since I was a kid - I was born into shit, I live in shit, I'll die in shit. Even if we still had quality media all around, I'd probably still be depressed because my childhood fucking sucked. Hell, I don't even have any baby pictures - my life's a total blank. As for pulling the trigger? I've thought about it, but I'd rather not die before my cat does: I know it's sad as fuck, but she's literally my only friend. I had a girlfriend, but it didn't pan out (she moved away, haven't seen or heard from her since), all my childhood friends moved on (largely after getting scared away by skitzomom)….yeah, can't say I got much else.

>Those people are living infinitely happier lives than we will ever have.

My old man once asked me:

>Son, why can't you just be NORMAL?

I've never forgotten that bit, especially as I aced pic related. I honestly believe my parents hated me: I didn't exactly start off on the right foot. I won't bore you with the details, but suffice it to say, I think they would've rather preferred a bluepilled soyboy/druggie/whatever than a gifted loner with a university reading level, and that makes me feel like shit because I was always told get good grades, make your parents proud, and yet they never once told me they were…

>I've noticed a lot more anons considering suicide lately… everyone's accepted the truth at this point.

I've only considered suicide out of spite for my parents, not so much for the shit we're talking about now. All this SJW, GG, bat flu, etc stuff doesn't phase me as much as it does you guys. To me, it's just the rotten cherry on a shit sundae at best.

I try to live in spite of it all, hence my love of retro: in a way, I still live in the '00s (and earlier); I still watch DVD and VHS, I'm not on social media (never have been, never will be), and I still use a landline. So, my little part of the world is kind of like an island of the '00s in a sea of Current Year; my bedroom is like that "time proof shelter" in Futurama.

I think it's not about finding overall "good" games anymore, it's about taking "shitty" games and finding what's fun about them while ignoring the rest. This attitude of hating everything without trying to find the good stuff is very self-destructive and i don't want to start hating videogames as a whole in the near future.

To me, I feel it is more simply that people are more likely to talk about what is new, rather than what everyone's played a thousand times, and it so happens that most of what is new is shitty, and this attracts people that just hate everything who then bleed into random threads to drop a (1) and done "this game sucks".

Or it was like that, but /v/ kind of died and shattered into a million pieces, so I don't really think much can be said about the general attitude when it is going to be subject to so much instability as it reforms.

There are plenty of good games that come out nowadays, they just aren't AAA shit. I'll recommend some if you're seriously struggling to find new, good games. Broaden your horizons. There is also thousands of old PC games to play and thousands of old console games to emulate, and emulation is better than ever.

This is actually the new golden age of video games so long as you ignore AAA shit and don't use consoles. You can get a solid ryzen CPU for as cheap as 85 dollars, you can get a used Navi card and install linux where the drivers are actually good and have thousands of games to play on a budget build.

I'm actually starting to agree. We hit a real dark age somewhere from the mid-00's to the early 10's, but we're not in too bad of a place now. Dark Souls showed there was a still a market for games that provide challenge and spawned a whole sub-genre, niche Japanese games like Yakuza are now actually seeing regular Western releases, we have much better mechanisms for the distribution of indie games, allowing for some really great games like Hollow Knight to appear out of nowhere, and if all you want to do is play old games that's easier and better than ever too. Basically, AAA gaming is a pile of shit, and the gaming media sucks, but that may have always been the case.

It's times like this why I'm glad they perfected most of the PSX/PS1 Emulators.

They run so smoothly, you can even play them on an RPi 3.

Not to mention the awesome hi-spec system enhancements like PGXP (video is the example).

Now all that's left is for the PCSX2 developers to pull their heads out of their asses, and finally optimise that train-wreck (1.6.0 is out, and it's still a turd on the carpet).

One of the best examples of why this Emulator Sucks is the Driv3r tech demo we all know and love: Stuntman.

>[get to the end of the video]

Even if you have a NASA PC to run it, there's games like this that are unbeatable thanks to hardware asymmetry.

Another good example is Freekstyle. Both of these games are fine-tuned to the limitations of the original hardware, thus riddled with game-breaking glitches that shouldn't be there, and unplayable until "very" further notice.

If you want a PS2 Emulator fine-tuned for Vulkan (and literally nothing else), try Play! (yes, it's called that, and it sucks as well):

I heard the implementation of Play! as a libretro core was half decent (compared to things like how notoriously shit DS cores were implemented)

I'm more on the thing of some of the specific shortcomings of OpenGL's limitations are as it's a critical point of failure for PS2 emulation (and somewhat GCN emulation, but dolphin already moved to getting a functional implementation of the Vulkan API)

Too bad the lowest requirement for Vulkan is a CPU that supports either OpenGL 4.5 or DirectX12 as well.

It's not that "state of the art" when you need a new high-range PC/Laptop for it anyway (preferably with a dedicated GPU). I always wondered why Vulkan does not work on my Laptop, until I found out that it's "too weak".

I'm not talking about overpriced gaming equipment, I'm talking about your average bring-to-office kind of laptop machine (it's what I have, and what I can afford).

I tried every possible way to install Vulkan on it, but it just isn't compatible with an Intel i5 4200M (no GPU).

Lucky you I guess, but I think a contributing factor is that it's GPU focused, meaning no matter how weak the PC is, it has to have a dedicated GPU to work.

I just came across this. It's like I said, your CPU/GPU needs to at least support OpenGL 4.5 or DirectX12 (fully, not partially) in order for Vulkan to work.

I missed it by just an inch. What a perfect waste of a perfect opportunity to fully replace GL on all devices.

I kind of hated PS1 - PS2 era of gaming and it wasn't because of games, games were great and all. I hated it because of those machines, nothing fucking worked. PS1 era especially, I remember praying every time I would boot up game because in 60% of cases it wouldn't read CD, and for no reason, too, didn't matter if it was brand new game or older, there was always risk of PS randomly deciding not to start game. This was happening to me even after I bought new PS1. PS2 I believe I've switched at least 3 times because of that cheap, Japanese trash of a laser that would die after 6-7 months of use. Even at the time, as a kid, I was thinking to myself just how gigantic pieces of garbage those consoles are. PS3 I bought once and it lasted me until PS4, same with PS4. When it comes to games, things have definitely gotten worse because, as anons here said, games went mainstream so they began to dumb them down so that everyone "gets it". Not that games from previous generations were intelligent or some shit, it's just that previous games required a bit of paying attention, which now days doesn't exist. Rarely will you find game today that requires and kind of attention, and if devs try to make something that does require attention, it is usually meet with cry's from jurnos and casuals how it's too difficult (Think of anything that From Software is doing). Also, I think that devs should re-think the way they implement difficult levels in games because what we got today is fucking retarded. If you start playing something on highest difficult it just means that you take more damage, and enemies heave bigger health bar, meanwhile game still forces you to walk during "important" moments of the story because presenting game in a "cinematic" way is more important then letting people play. This problem of trying to make games as close to movies as possible is most apparent if you observe devs reactions to someone play or speedrun their games. They are completely shocked when they see that players are skipping cutscenes, or have find a way to skip some walking part in game. This people are not gamers, they don't play games, they only make them. Basically, majority of people who are making games today do not understand what games are at its core.
