What is it about older videogames that scare zoomers?

Gen Z has the strangest phobias. Liminal spaces, suburbs, and corporate memphis art style (Okay, that last one is justified)

The absence of microtransactions is so lonely

They're scared to play a real game

No WiFi connection

can anyone make up their mind about zoomers already; either they're retvrning to good media and playing all the old games or they're brown zogbot sloppers who hate anything that isn't Fortnite and made before 2010

Meanwhile millennials are afraid to get a job and move out their parents house

Some of them are cool and some of them aren't. This is not unique to Gen Z, but you already knew that.

Super Mario 64 felt so empty at times, especially in places that were supposed to have a lot of people in them. Wet Dry World felt like everybody drowned, and all the doors to the building couldn't be opened.

did older tech scared the other generations? like a haunted VHS tape, website, 8mm film, or a floppy disk that kills you?

When I was a kid in the 90s a guy at work gave my dad a copy of Doom, I thought it was scary because it looked like the monsters were looking right at you and coming towards you. was also scared of the popular brick wall maze screensaver that came with Windows at the time, because I was afraid a monster from Doom would show up.

Funny because Millenials were scared about sexy women and they are troons now.

This is it

Each generation gets weaker. Look at those old horror movies from the turn of the century. I find some of them unsettling but, I'm sure people of the time didn't bat and eye.

Why are they afraid of such harmless shit.

there's isn't a disabled LGBTQ person of color to assure them they're safe.

The scariest part about posts like this is that there are anons knowledgeable enough about this garbage to type all of it.

>Suburbs
The fuck? Don't like half of all people live in suburbs?

there was only one thing scary in super mario 64, and that was the giant eel. I am terrified of deep water and water monsters in general though.

There were those textures on the ps1 that keep moving.
I don't know why the ps1 had that issue.

meanwhile this made millennials piss and shit their pants

that's a Gen X thing that started with American Beauty/Happiness

Bet. Not gonna lie, this one had me shook fr fr. Like, no cap, I was lowkey expecting mid, but it kinda ate?? Whole vibe was giving something and I’m here for it. Big slay energy, but also... what was even happening?? Brain said “huh??” but in an aesthetic way. Vibes were immaculate, even if the plot dipped harder than my WiFi on a Tuesday. Might be gaslighting myself but I think I loved it?? Idk, touch grass maybe. Ratio me if I’m wrong, but this was actually kinda goated. Anyway, mood. That’s all. Stay toxic.

scared about sexy women?

you can't deal with others, it's you and the game

>>714437438 (OP)
They dont, its just engagement farming children, its been a thing since "scary copypastas". You take these videos seriously because you have a child brain.
