I dislike fanservice because it often seems shoehorned in, adding no value outside itself whatsoever and as such taking away from the rest.

Mind you if I want smut,I just watch smut. Simple as

NixOS [...] some packages are kinda old

Fair

that server will be going back to debian next summer.

I don't think that will solve the "some packages are kinda old" issue.

Actually, it's true.

It is an unpopular opinion

I'd guess this is less about MINIX vs. Linux and more about ultimately having 0 control over or insight into it.

Remember when those were called image macros?

Same for OpenRCT2, but they're both not official entries in the series.

Atari hasn't released anything positively noteworthy for RCT since 3… which turned 20 today if you're in Europe.

"Yes, we ruined one of Sawyer's series, but what about a second one?"

The only thing that feels off when playing it today are the somewhat finicky movements

Super Metroid is so good. But you're right. The controls are... not great.

If you can live with playing a ROMhack, give Super Metroid Project Base a try. It feels so much better to play. The map isn't quite the same as the original - I consider it an improvement, but it's not exactly the same.

I just wish the SM /LttP randomizer had the option to enable the new movement.

Star fox 64? I can play the shit out of that right now.

Played this game a lot when it was new, then kind of ditched it completely later. But I often have to think about how good it actually was.

Played both as a kid and found them really cool

0 desire to touch them nowadays and wouldn't recommend younger people to experience them

And it's not like I don't like the old games I played back then, I play a lot of Super Mario World from time to time (though in fairness exclusively ROMhacks except about every 10 years where I look at the original again). Sonic Adventure for me just didn't age well.

But that's fine, not every game has to be a timeless classic. I have good memories of the games and that's what's important

I've played the game shortly hoping for it to be a mix between Isaac and Noita. However, the game failed to grab my attention for longer, as the wand building mechanic is way inferior to Noita, though the custom wand properties sure are nice, and remaining loadout and options were worse than what I remember from Isaac.

All this doesn't obviously mean the game is bad, apart from maybe the cringe story. However, measured against the giants - I'd also include Enter the Dungeon here for presentation - it currently falls short.
