Does anyone actually say this?

[-] jedibob5@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

I had a friend of mine say something to this effect back when we were in high school, but I think they've walked back on that since then.

My dad used to, ironic since he played in the pixel golden age. That said, I think Sea of Stars changed his mind.

Yeah I've seen people (online) saying something like that. I guess those are teenagers who wanted to feel being adults by avoiding cartoons.

With current technologies, none of the games actually look realistic.

Some games use a relatively realistic style. But we can instantly tell apart the game footage vs a real video.

We thought PS2 graphics looked realistic. In a decade when people look back at games in 2025, that would be what they feel.

I dunno, take The Conduit for instance. Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

[-] FluffMongo@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

The last time I heard someone say this in earnest was on a playground

Welcome to Video Game Memes! Here, we post memes about video games. Isn't that swell?

Doesn't matter what game or which platform. If it's related to video games, and it's somewhat funny and doesn't break our rules (see below), post it!

  3. Does your meme potentially have a game spoiler? Mark or tag your OP with SPOILER: (Game Name). Deciding which games need spoilers can be subjective, so please use reasonable judgement.

  4. No spam. This includes bots, advertisement links, off-topic posts, and intentionally repetitious posting. Links are allowed. Paywalled articles should be archived or 12ft.io'd.

  5. NSFW material is allowed, please mark it as such when posting. Use your best judgement. No pornography or explicit content. This also includes gore or shock content.
