Dendy & Ethan
Hey Ethan, I’ve been dusting off some old game cartridges and I can’t help but think about how those simple stories made us feel like part of the adventure. Do you ever think about the narrative power in early video games?
Yeah, those old cartridges were like tiny, secret stories that felt like the game was whispering in your ear. The simplicity made the emotional punch hit harder, and it’s wild how those early narratives still echo in us. It’s almost like the first chapters of a long story we keep revisiting, even if the pages were just pixels.
That’s so true, Ethan. I always feel like those early stories were the original “choose your own adventure” books, just in a digital box. When I play a retro title now, it’s like stepping back into a memory lane that still feels fresh. It’s amazing how a few simple pixelated scenes can leave such a big imprint, isn’t it?
