this is just a millenial version of a boomer meme. you guys are really shaping up to become what you hated. complaining about kids these days not enjoying the same shit you did when you were a kid. what next, you gonna complain about how gen alpha are destroying the economy because they're not buying avocados or something?

stop the inter-generational fighting, honestly, it's cringe and a huge distraction from the fact that the rich fucks in charge are looting us for all we're worth. let's fight them, instead of eachother

How did you take this personally? I saw it as a criticism of the industry

Hey dingus, it's not complaining about you, it's about being sad for you that you'll never experience that level of innovation since companies are all "minecraft fortnite skyrim again" and nothing else.

How are you so triggered by this? Holy fuck chill

Problem with your generation is that you get offended by anything. You just proved that point. This meme was just to understand the massive graphical improvement that has been going on through the years.

Zoomers will do this in 40 years too. Same as it ever was.

I have 0 idea how you could have read that from the image. It's about the seemingly exponential improvement in graphics or just how fast things were changing in gaming.

Yeah I agree on the cringe part

Bro, take a deep breath, that is just a meme. People can be nostalgic sometimes, there is nothing wrong with that.
