Ever rediscover something you thought was great back in the day, only to find the new you doesn’t like it much at all? That’s what the thread is about. I don’t mean guilty pleasure; I mean you really thought this thing was the shit some time ago and now you don’t.
Well, for me, it’s that huge codec scene near the end of MGS2. TBQH, I never liked the story of MGS2, but I liked that scene for some weird reason. I saw it a couple days ago on a Related Video Youtube trip and… boy, did that NOT age well to me. I don’t know if it’s because of MGS4 or something, but that shit sounds so stupid now.
Meh. I’m specific and I like to talk about trivial shit in my threads. I only talk about real shit in a lounge post.
Wait a second. I just got reminded of something that applies to the topic. Modern Warfare 2. When that game first hit I loved it. I dropped it later because of a bunch of broken shit, but the last time I played it, even the good things about it weren’t enough to save it. Even after finally getting a nuke in that game, all I could muster the strength to say was “well, that was overrated.”
