“The term boomer shooter has a rather nebulous origin, and it likely started as a joke. Online pedants often point out that the original first-person shooters were developed by Gen-Xers like John Carmack (born 1970) and John Romero (born 1967), not Baby Boomers. However, “boomer shooter” uses the slang version of the term boomer, as a stand-in for any older person who is closed-minded and out of touch—so please, direct those complaints elsewhere.”
I have not seen the video but I think the correct modern answer nowadays is: “boomer shooter”

Comparing modern game with games from the olden days is a little bit like comparing a savery steam pump with a modern internal combustion engine. Sure the general principles are identical but the complexity of the system is a manifold of the other.
I really love retro games, i have very fond memories of the C64 and SNES, but i am not a fan of the glorification of those games. Only a small part of the old games are still fun today and lots of them have bugs. Secret of Mana on the SNES for example has a fun bug where leveling all weapons and spells to max can create a overflow error in the final fight of the game, which removes the mana hero completely from the game, rendering the last fight impossible because only the mana hero can damage the mana dragon significantly.
Yes, he could teleport a copy of myself but I would still be dead then, my soul sipping tea with the interdimensional koala while watching my copy do all the stuff I no longer can.
I don’t have anything really against the topics in lots of modern Star Trek, and I like a lot of it. Lower Decks is great, I loved Prodigy and what I have seen of Strange new worlds was quite good too. Even some parts of Picard Season 1 and 2 was good (and it got so much better in S3).
What I can’t watch though is Discovery, this show is just, in my opinion, so bad written on so many levels. A waste of time and money in my eyes. I tried the first three seasons and stopped. I am happy for everyone who likes it, it is just not a show for me and that is fine.
But all of the new shows are so much worse than the old shows (TNG and newer, I am too young for TOS/TAS), by miles. Maybe it is nostalgia (I started watching TNG as a teenager) but I don’t think so. Sure it has it’s own cringe at times but for me the quality of the writing and storytelling is on a completely other level.
Well, the title is a question and the answer is: Not quite but near enough.
A title has to catch interest, and in this case I would not say that it is click bait because in the end he kind of put a “Linux” on the “NES”.
I tend to be forgiving when the content behind the click bait title is good, like it is here.
Well, yes and he even explains all that in the beginning of the video.
Yeah it is, like most stuff with the brain, a spectrum from low to high Aphantasia.
I can’t visualize anything in my mind, I can describe what I know or what I make up but that’s it a list of information or details, when it comes to world building highly imaginative details and information, but I have no clue how it really looks like. That’s why I love AI art generators, I can input all my imaginary details into the prompt and it then emulates my missing inner eye. Something I never could on my own, how should I draw something when I have only words to describe it? For me AI Art tools are a godsend, a pacemaker for my inner eye so to speak.
Having Aphantasia doesn’t mean that a person has no imagination, he just has no inner eye, no way to see the imagination in his mind.
I know that because I have lots of imagination but have Aphantasia. World building for roleplay and stories is where I am really good, as long as I don’t have to do anything with a visual component like drawing
Lots of Palworld, it really is fun to grind XP, complete Towers and Dungeons or to create your perfect forced labor camps for your mindbroken pals.
I can’t stand Witcher 3 but played Witcher 1 not long ago and I really loved it. It is very oldcore and the controls are a b***h sometimes but it is a really great game with a great story. I hope Witcher 2 is as good too, it is on my next to play list very high.
I never really got into 3D Zelda (but had some fun with most of them) and Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom are a absolute low for me mostly because of the ugly as hell art. Both games have the worst cell shader look I have seen in a very long time and it makes both games unplayable for me. I get kind of sea sick playing them (I tried at a friend’s place who loves both games).
It needs a certain level of individuality and personality of the creator that sets it apart from other, already existing works of art.
