>Stalker by Tarkovsky
You a retard. I've watched that movie, never thought that. I've read Roadside picnic, never thought that. I enjoyed the Stalker series, didn't need capeshit in it. I probably got more hours in Stalker GAMMA than you do.

What you guys are is a bunch of snobs with too high of an opinion on your taste, cynical, and hopeless for the future. If you guys genuine think gaming peaked 30 years ago, you've lost the plot.

>Yeah, but video game stories aren't always good no matter how many layers or atmospheres you manage
Does not mean they should not try.
>There is no real reason to expand on stories
You cannot expect fans of Metroid not to want to see more of the games they are a fan of, its themes, characters and worlds. It'd be idiotic to assume otherwise

On the contrary, I think mostly in pictures. You are just another oldfag stuck in the nihilistic hole of nostalgia, where things were better 30 years ago, and the future has no meaning. Enjoy your NES ROMS while the world moves on without you, boomer.
