i keep on saying that this sort of vapid nostalgic aesthetic cares not at all of the contexts of the times it draws from but didn't expect to have such a good example of this just handed to me - ThreadSky

I've shed nostalgia so hard (we've talked about this) when I realized how little soul is actually left in it

I really do just prefer the now at this point where I can't have sauceless repackaging peddled to me anymore

I hate this shit where it's like "Hey, we can't give you an actual future but we'll let you sit there and suck yourself off over the past". I like tinkering with old electronics, yes, but I don't want that to be my entire life.

yeah it's silly but I remember playing HD games on a crt well into the mid 2010's so it's not that far off :3

I've seen a few pics like this and I don't know how to phrase it but there's a David Dees vibe to the inconsistencies in timeframe and perspective of how the different bits are edited together in them

Was gonna say it rules how ubisoft is actually a company with a pretty long history but apparently they care so little about the backcatalog that they just go "uhh hey guys aren't you nostalgic for Tom Clancy?????"

Is literally the oldest thing they have there splinter cell whilst invoking 80s and 90s nostalgia?? Also dart board at way lower than eye level. the longer you look the stupider it gets.

I loved playing far cry 3 back in 1994 while drinking ecto cooler and buying invader Zim phone cases from hot topic

someone already mentioned it but it's so funny how they're nostalgia baiting this hard but refuse to put anyhting older than assassin's creed 1 in here lmao

who can forget the warm glow of the family PC as we booted up Far Cry 3 back in the radical 90s
