   @coolboymew When I first got into PC gaming I was kinda shocked because the culture wasn't like console gaming culture I was used to. Where my pals were casually playing NES games from the 80s with me and stuff

   I found that PC gamers generally didn't give a shit about old stuff

   I found out for myself, thats because the games that were coming out at that time on PC fucking blew.

     @ocean The euro computers are a big memes on /vr/, especially for ZX Spectrum. There's a saying going on that some of the worst NES games would be game of the month of the Spectrum

     @coolboymew Absolutely.

     The sad thing is that I think modern gamers have picked up on this and basically ignore anything old on PC-platforms and as a result even the stuff that was pretty cool (Like Ultima) is just totally and utterly ignored. Whens the last time you heard anyone normal talk about the Ultima series
