There are plenty of “zoomers” playing “boomer shooters”, old TES games, retrogaming on emulators, etc. In my opinion, retrogaming increased significantly during the last decade. It’s kinda a part of mainstream gaming now, it was more niche before.
I wonder if the growing trend of retro gaming has anything to do with the industry push for live services and season passes. I know I’d rather be playing Morrowind than dealing with all these “$49.99 for 50% more shiny rocks to buy this weeks hat!”
That’s not new. I had a Game Genie!
Yeah, nah
