A streamer once said “games didn’t used to be better you’re just nostalgic for the time in your life when you didn’t have any real responsibilities” and I haven’t stopped thinking about it since

That said, there is a truth that games used to be better: and more specifically Nintendo games Pokémon was way better when it didn’t come with 8 hours of tutorials up front, and just let you get right into the adventure Zelda was also better when it didn’t have 8 hours of novice tutorial hell

I am a pretty big fan of how TOTK intro-ed everything but I do fondly remember the days of just figuring it out too
