Its just like with idealizing music eras. People remember the stand outs and forget the bad and mediocre stuff so it seems like everything was better in whatever time.

SNES does have a lot of the better games in lots of great series. Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Castlevania, Final Fantasy etc etc etc.
Though the cheat answer is probably PC since its been around for decades can just evolve with whatever is going on.
Some of them are free.
Its basically a perfect game. It never feels dated and has one of the most horribly catchy songs ever created by man. Its weird that it’s so fun, its like as simple as you can really boil down a game, its literally just arranging blocks into lines. But it just clicks with the human brain on some deep level.
I use Iris, its very simple.
That game ruled, I remember one of the tracks had a huge hidden stunt room you could find.
I’ve been saying this forever too! Boomers were the ones complaining about thier kids playing them back in the day because of the violence and demonic imagery.
In the 90s people called them "Doom-like"s. I usually just say “90s FPS games”. Which I guess could be confusing and make people think I’m talking about framerate, but eh.
1 and 2 are some of my favorite games ever. They’re sort of like Pac-Man or Tetris, they just nailed such a basic, fun gameplay experience that you can always go back to it and get sucked in.
Also props for GZDoom and Brutal Doom updating them for modern hardware.
I’m like that with OG Doom. Its half nostalgia and half it just being a fun game to play.
Its tricky, because how much do I really know about people’s views who I’ve never met? Especially more famous people who might just be crafting a public image. They might be hiding aspects of thier views that are bad publicity, or just being controversial to drum up attention.
OpenMW may as well be a remake, it runs very well and updates everything for modern hardware. Thats probably the way to go if you want to play Morrowind today.
Morrowind and Oblivion both have a massive fan following but I think always get unfairly overlooked for Skyrim.
I was thinking Soul Reaver too! I think the problem is that it had a handful of mediocre sequels that made people eventually lose interest in the series. But the original game was one of the best on the PS1. I loved the whole improvised combat mechanic where you have to use anything around you in the environment that could hit the vampires’ weakneses.
I could see that, both series really work from very good character writing, if thats someone’s thing. I loved both as well.
If you liked Assassin’s Apprentice, Robin Hobb wrote a lot of other excellent books set in the same world.
Empire of the Vampire was great if you want something like The Witcher.
If I’m thinking of the same scene, it was Bobbie the first time she’s on Earth and has kind of a panic attack because she’s never been anywhere where you could just be out in the open like that. I forget which book it was though.
Synfig might be what you’re looking for.
Markor is FOSS and stores notes as md or txt files. I like that feature as well, I can sync it to outside devices and not need any specific app to open them.
In movies and shows they’ve become popular because its easy to shoot, it doesn’t block anything or anyone in the scene or need a specific angle. Regular screens are always facing the opposite direction of the person looking at them in the scene.
It does everything through clever game design, nothing takes you out of the game. No cut scenes or text popping up or freezing everything while dialogue is going on. You’re just in that world.
