I dont understand why people obsess over boring retro games like skyrim

its over 10 years old and has a remaster, ergo it is a retro game

karna - https://poa.st/users/karna Oblivion is not skyrim.But i spent my entire highschool years playing it. So unless it comes out for VR im good.

Never heard of oblivion but I picked up a retro console (an xbox 360) at a thrift store the other day and it came with skyrim. I tried it for a few hours but had to drop it because it just didnt hook me

@karna@poa.st @nine2fivestudio@nicecrew.digital are those the sole qualifications for a game to be considered "retro"? Are Shovel Knight and Gravity Rush now retro?

@karna@poa.st skyrim anniversary edition is not that old, it came out in 2021

@karna@poa.st real, at least obsess over fun retro games like metroid prime.

Meanwhile, I've been playing the NES original for the pure black background looking awesome on oled.

@karna@poa.st >skyrim

@HonkHonkBoom@poa.st @karna@poa.st dunno NEStroid doesn't do it for me but then again i grew up playing super metroid so...

@karna@poa.st @Sirensabotage@noauthority.social In Japan I went to a “retro games store” and in the second floor they had even wiiu and xbox360 systems. There were also two ps3 systems on display at the entrance. They also had wiimotes so I bought all that they had (only two, I would have bought a third one if they had one).

Hey you, you’re finally awake, got caught crossing the boarder in the imperial ambush, same as the rest of us.

I will just buy a drink and wait for Skyblivion or wait for Kingmakers or the next elden ring DLC, ReOblivion wont run on my 8 GB computer, damn you Todd Howard, IT DOESNT JUST WORK!

@William_The_Dragonborn@poa.st @karna@poa.st Who wants Type A / Type B bullshit or horrid NPC models anyways?

I will stick with wife material and happy endings.

@William_The_Dragonborn@poa.st @SuperSnekFriend@poa.st @karna@poa.st Cute expression and booba

Need a monogamous to vanilla extreme

Yep.

@lykanthrocide@shitposter.world @nine2fivestudio@nicecrew.digital @karna@poa.st I generally just argue that anything thats 15 years or older is the cutoff for what retro falls under. Skyrim is about 14 (2011) so it's pretty damn close by my standards. Gravity Rush is creeping up on that line too, though it's got an extra year over Skyrim.
