Just watched gameplay of unreleased game plants vs zombies 3 . Its so bad, original from 2009 is milion times better.

And same goes for all other games. Why are old games better than new ones, they dont put any efort today to make good quality game.

It looks like they just want to make it quick and cheap. No wonder games are so lov quality..

You say its well done but i dont see that, why do we have pixelated cards in 2025?

Why it have plane buttons with no ornaments or any detailes on them? Look at old games, look at buttons in old games, look at detailes.

Find on youtube original, first dota gameplay and look at how mouse looks like. That is art. And look how mouse is in this 20 years newer game…

Sure, the pixelated look is "simplistic" but I don't feel it detracts from the gameplay. It's deep, your choices are interesting and significant, and it's oh so addicting. And most importantly, it's fun! I recommend it to friends and they think it's fun.
