With digital circus coming out recently I realised the 2000s game aesthetic can actually be kinda cool and endearing
It feels like games nowdays are kinda soulless and generic though, glossy and modern (Obviously except for indie games)
Will the 2020s aesthetic be microtransactions and lootboxes?
Nostalgia happens because you remember the good and forget the bad. People remember Mario 3 but forget Mario is Missing.
In 20 years, people will say, “Remember when they made good games like Baldur’s Gate 3 rather than the trash that is Baldur’s Cash Grab?” Kids today will wax poetic about how the 2020s was the last good decade for gaming.
The truth is, there will always be good and bad games.
Larian have always been pretty good really hope they don't go that way
That said they've got that wizards of the coast money behind them too
The voxel aesthetic of Minecraft and some indie games will probably be a source of nostalgia in the future.
That, and whatever Roblox is.
Not everything was awesome when we were young. We just remember the best things.
It's a lovely day in the village, and you are a horrible goose.
Yup, people will be nostalgic for LMFAO's Party Rock music video, JJ Abrams' Star Trek, and autotuned music. Just like I'm nostalgic for MTV's Daria and Star Trek DS9.
