“Balatro’s fun, but if only the cards were more realistic, it’d be a much better game” said nobody ever
ROM hacks are even better…
Call PS3 and Xbox 360-era army slop what you will, but at least it had functional graphics, no noise, no visual bugs, no temporal smear, and most of the time it worked on release.
IMO, most modern games are so bad that Brown Army Slop™ looks good in comparison.
Not to mention nickel-and-diming the customer.
The only games I really care about graphical fidelity are racing simulators, and that’s because I’m in VR in a simrig and looking to be as immersed as possible. Even then, frame rate is more important that just about everything else.
I am currently playing AC:Brotherhood and Nine Sols. Both are amazing in their own right. Ezio Trilogy is quite special.
I’m not impressed by ripping off Pokemon and giving them machine guns. \s
It’s closer to ripping off ARK, but removing all the misery-inducing wastes of time so it’s actually fun to play casually. The Pokémon stuff is there, but 90% of everything else is ARK with the serial numbers filed off.
