What's a technology that was cooler in its older iterations?
I don't mean BETTER. That's a different conversation. I mean cooler.
An old CRT display was literally a small scale particle accelerator, firing angry electron beams at light speed towards the viewers, bent by an electromagnet that alternates at an ultra high frequency, stopped by a rounded rectangle of glowing phosphors.
If a CRT goes bad it can actually make people sick.
That's just. Conceptually a lot COOLER than a modern LED panel, which really is just a bajillion very tiny lightbulbs.

Sex toys and local multiplayer is a way better combination than cybersex and online matchmaking
For when your team literally gets fucked.
Tell that to the furries. Every furry I know that has a VRChat avatar feels more at home with a VR headset strapped to their face.
Furries and strap-ons seem to go hand in hand
I generally can't be arsed with online multiplayer -- Just as a concept.
But I made great memories with my cousins playing Wii/GameCube local multiplayer titles. Smash, Mario Kart, Sonic Adventure 2, et cetera.
I too like to play "Smash" with this guy's cousins
But do you bond burger my sister?
I have never played a game with random strangers ever. But! My brother and sister both live hours away from me (and each other), and we keep in touch by playing online co-op games every week.
I have a group of friends that I have mostly kept in touch with by playing online games too.
So I agree with what I think you meant, but I'm very glad online multiplayer exists in some form.
I mean. All my friends who match my freak live 120Km+ away from me and so I have played online games with them.
But man it's just not the same as the experience of snacks, a beat up sofa, crowding around a television, yelling at each other, yanno?
Agreed!
Who said you can't do it anymore?
Still trying to find a way to get microtransactions in there, but I've already got horse armour, thanks
