Quoted from CrazyLevi:More people, prices going up, stuff that used to suck is getting more chances from more people.
"Poor people games" as I call them. JM is the biggest one for me these days. That game was crap out of the box and just as bad now, but it's "fast!1!" which excites people I guess.
We probably don't even have to mention pin2k which was such a sad thing when it came out, not it's just another choice people have with no weight behind it.
Quoted from homebrood:Yeah I wouldn't be caught dead with any of those poor peoples games in my collection, we can leave those for the low lifes and the peasants...
Losers that aren't filthy rich are so annoying...
Blah blah...just a figure of speech...no need to cry in your beer.
It's more the skyrocketing prices of the hobby in the last years more than a social commentary. So many of the popular 90s games are basically for the rich now. TZ, IJ etc are all big bucks now. So someone, let's call them "disgusting serf," can't afford to buy them so they have to go the bargin bin.
Quoted from dung:That's because there are less williams snobs these days.
It would be almost impossible have the same % these days compared to then. There were more players then and nobody was repping DE over W/B, that's for goddamn sure.
