I read a social media posts dunking on Maximillian Dood for his love of Final Fantasy VII on the original Sony PlayStation. The poster tried to make a show by listing out the flaws of the original PlayStation game and how they made the game worse in comparison to modern day titles that have more complex mechanics. Do I believe that older games are exempted from criticism? No, definitely not. I just feel that a lot of times, these well-intentioned criticisms of a game come from expectation not living up to reality. For e.g., a few of the criticisms leveled at the game is that the open world is sparse or that you could potentially break the game by getting Midgar Zolom Enemy Skill Beta early.
