They don't know this themselves, but they hate old games because it invalidates the consumerist urge to always obtain the very newest realease. It averts the eyes away from the trough; the cardinal sin under consumerism.
I hear dismissiveness toward old games, which sometimes manifests as "lol why u care about that old shit," but never outright anger. It's just a dumb thing like in every medium.
A lot of those guys like to yell at anyone who would ever consider downloading a rom of a game. They’ll shout that it hurts the game devs, even after you remind them the game came out 20 years ago and devs don’t earn royalties.
Really love documentaries on the subject and how there was a lot of quirky DOS era games, especially out of France and Germany from their punk leftist scenes.

:so-true: I'VE OCTUPLE DIPPED ON THIS GAME ON EVERY PLATFORM
I've paid for Dead Cells on multiple platforms but that's about it
Okay not to disrupt the circlejerk but I have never heard of gamers having an issue with older games.
Are you sure you're not just making up a guy to get mad at?

:hahaha: Mfw I buy new, hyped up games around 5-6 years after they're out on a discount of about 70-80%
I love old games, Doom 2 > new Doom (I will fight anyone on this!), and the old MSX keyboard + tape deck games were rockin'!
Echos of the "South Park" ideology of, "If you care you're a loser".

i mean, how else would they justify their pcmasterrace shtick and their $10000 dual graphics card setup
