- TillE 4y agoTen years is a long time, but it's interesting that we've reached sort of a plateau in videogame design. I mean, look at 1982 vs 1992 vs 2002. Technology continues to advance, but we're still making the same kind of 3D games, so that a kid today could go play those games without any real trouble.

- wiseowise 4y ago> A pretty relic of the past, I was so surprised to find that it runs perfectly on the Steam Deck in 2022, better than it ever did at launch. I was able to find a new appreciation for the aspects of the game that stuck with me when I was a teenager, like the game’s inimitable cel-shaded art style, evocative of the same graphic novels The Darkness 2 is based on. Got me. I was like "The Darkness 2? Relic of the past? Huh?".
