Yes, it was objectively better, because we had optimism and hope back then, since everything was constantly evolving and moving forward, both in terms of technology, design, graphics, etc.

But now we haven't had anything move forward in the last 15 years, and it's just the same things over and over again in different packaging. TL;DR: back then it was "things will get better" - Now it's "things will never get better".
