[QUOTE="Blockinlick, post: 6762, member: 234"] I feel like virtually all vintage games are put on a nostalgia and innovation pedestal. The roles they played in their era are unrivaled and historically important, but by quality metrics, fall short in just about every area. It's kind of like how Hendrix is almost unanimously considered the greatest guitarist of all time... despite the fact that, by todays standards, he had mediocre technical skill. If Hendrix was born 25 years ago, he'd probably be a nobody. Don't get me wrong, Hendrix is one of the most important musicians in history, but only in the sense that he did things first, did them best for his time, and was widely popular during his time. That doesn't make him in any way objectively better than any other guitarist of our era. [/QUOTE]
