Jesus Christ what a fucking nightmare thread.
> Should 7th gen be retro?
One day, sure but not yet. We only just let 6th gen in, give it a little while will ya. We'd be letting in games up til what? 2014? That's not retro, that's about $5 on Steam (on sale). I just played Arkham Asylum for the first time the other night, and while I was thinking I've not played a game like this since about 2011 (stealth/cinematic action) it's still too modern to be called retro.
Fighting against my own interests here but I think 7th gen will come to /vr/ sooner rather than later and that we should prepare for it. Lots of talk about splitting the board to keep the pace slow, and while I agree with the reasoning (a slow board is a good board) I think a split is a knee-jerk reaction. I haven't seen anyone advocate a generals style board. Would accomodate the pace and everyones interests (which I think wouldn't be an awful idea for this board as it is now regardless of 7th gen), would stop low effort threads about "making the GameCube a success" or "Saving the Saturn".
I can see the divide between 6th and 7th gen, moving from SD to HD and from split-screen to online gaming, in a similar vein to moving from arcades to the home. It definitely isn't the same, but they are both examples of radical shifts in both how games were made and how people played them.
Anyway I'm not the arbiter of /vr/ do whatever you like, these are just one retards suggestions and opinions.

reminds me of my dark souls 2 experience. whiffing attacks, no stamina, as soon as your 1 hour stamina penalty ends, whiff another attack, then wait another hour before you can whiff again
