Yeah, the difference was dimensionality & fidelity versus the days of yore.

Also, Diablo has procedurally generated dungeon crawl..

The focus shifted to shiny graphics, I think.

I fully blame advanced 3D and 7th gen consoles for this.

They existing kinda coincided with gaming getting into mainstream and the birth of modern ways of making games, or as grognards call it, dumbing down

:/

I hate being hipster, but yeah. I agree.

Also, praytell, what's a grognard?

(On an aside, I adapted that phraseology "praytell" after a game I was playing repeatedly used it. XD)

Oops

This is what I get for running a low Charisma character

Oh, "grognard" comes from tabletops and wargaming. Basically someone who sticks to old editions (but that at least means they know those well) and variously dislikes the new ones, refuses to play them or pretends they don't exist

Shit, I shoulda recognized it from context - I blame the wine. Soz. @Xaverius

It's cool

Lol.

I should go bar hopping more often.

Rather than nursing old wounds, sipping my wine on a plane or in an airport club.

Valve isn't tencent owned, so china is trying to get rid of valve, through marketing interference.
