RETVRN
gamer chuds carry on about modern games being too easy and having too much tutorialisimg, when their beloved late-90s PC games had tons of difficulty options--usually more than modern games--and very detailed tutorials.No, it's worse than that. Those old-school games came with cheat codes, and almost everyone beat their favorite old-school games with cheat codes. That or using Game Genie. A 6-year old is not going to beat Super Metroid or Doom by themselves. "Games were harder back then." Yeah, and you beat those games with enough cheat codes that a 6-year could beat them.
