    Playing old games without nostalgia glasses can be very rough a lot of times

      Depends. I know people hate on Diablo 2 for the controls and whatnot, but it has made me very resilient to other older games I didn’t play that have similar control schemes and it let’s me enjoy them.

      Is it nostalgia if I never played the game itself?

      It can be, but I suppose I am a bit of a masochist, since I genuinely enjoy playing soulslikes (which I started with Dark Souls 1 and worked my way to Elden Ring)
