Are Classic Games Just Nostalgic? (Old-School vs. Modern Game Design)
Are the classic games we grew up with beloved because of merit, or is it just nostalgia? When comparing Zelda: A Link to the Past to Breath of the Wild, there is a world of difference in terms of game design philosophy and mechanics.

Join me on a journey through our gaming childhoods to find out which of these have merit, or which are simply great in our minds, due to the time and state we were in when we played.
Let's take a look...
