I actually liked the graphics and sound limitations of older games (not the earliest 3d but like, late 90s mid 2000s 3d) because the world's were usually small enough to put all the interesting stuff close together and the shittier graphics meant you had to use your imagination, which in turn immersed you more in the world. I try to play new open world photo realistic stuff and I just lose interest because even though it took so much work to make and is a technical marvel, it isn't exciting.

That or I'm just old
