raocow's talkhaus

in june of last year, i declared that "sonic the hedgehog 2 was a video game

until today". saying those words brought me a sense of power that i'd never felt before, and it became an addicting feeling. there may be satisfaction in challenging the definition of "video game", but i've realized i find nothing more enjoyable than being direct and ignoring definitions entirely

so, talkhaus... what video games were video games

until today

final fantasy legend iii

cat planet was a video game
until today

now, it's a lifestyle

All aaa super delux bran new hardcore games are no longer video games. However, any game with no fail state or combat but involves the player's perspective in its storytelling is extremely video games.

Metal Gear Solid 4.

Now it's a movie.

Earthbound.

Now it's just an overrated pile of garbage!

Super Mario World...

Now it's a fandom with modding, speedrunning and everything OwO

Slime Rancher!

Now an exciting experience of economics, farming lifestyles, and nonstop slime kawaii-desu!

7 GRAND DAD





Now a shared meme between Vinesauce fans and SiivaGunner fans alike!

Persona 5.

Now it's a crappy anime.




oh wait...

Super Mario Bros. X!


Now survived by its son SMBX2.



As of now, SMBX2 is a continuation/legacy of the SMBX community, as well as expandable/extendable, making it bigger than SMBX was. Press F to pay your respects.

Dark Souls


Not a game so much as a symbol of bragging rights for "hard core" gamers.

Fallout 76.

Wait, I messed up. First it needs to be a game from the start...
