>TFW when you find your old Red cartridge, boot it up, and realized your childhood team is shit in actual competitive play... all low-tiered with bad stats
>TFW you realize that strategy in Generation I boils down to level grinding and using common sense, and that it was designed to be so easy that a kid could beat it.
>TFW you realize you really sucked at this game when you were a kid
>TFW you realize that all video games are power fantasies at their core... a form of abnegation where one is instantly gratified for very little effort... and that pretty much anyone can beat most of them.
>TFW you realize you wasted your childhood on this shit rather than developing productive skills and habits. Seriously, you're no better than Chris-Chan for picking this game up again. You're not being a hipster or ironic. You're a fat fucking deadbeat in your late twenties with no girlfriend, no accomplishments and no prospect of great future success. Cry yourself to sleep faggot.
