I watch reviews for old games I already know a lot about, just to hear the stupid hot takes modern gamers who weren't even alive at the time the game they're playing was released have about games that were awesome in their own time that may not have held up to today's standards.

Like all the dudes that wonder how Half-Life and Half-Life 2 are considered good when something from 2019 is so much better. lol

They don't appreciate the technical leaps either. DOOM was mind-boggling ahead of it's time and Carmack is an absolute genius but kids these days couldn't care less.
