Classic games that have aged poorly

@Prowler I was just joking about Pong. Also never played Custer when likewise only know about it from AVGN

As for you guys talking about early Pokemon, it’s basically impossible for me to enjoy Gen 1 anymore. This was a long time ago, but back in college I went to revisit Yellow and was absolutely crushing it but hit the wall when I got to the Elite Four. I had basically won every single battle and didn’t really get lost at all so my lineup wasn’t even level 80 lol.

I didn’t feel like grinding for days to get my levels up, so I just quit. Pretty funny that my 8 year old self could have beat my 18 year old self. But I basically hadn’t forgotten a single path to take, and having the sense and patience to incorporate defensive moves into my battles made the first 99 percent of the game too easy.
