Why the fuck did we evolve to get nostalgia? How the fuck is

>>33149557
I do that and actually have fun replaying it because there is a reason i have nostalgia for that game

>>33149720
Nostalgia is great as long as you don't go full-retard with it like 99% of this fandom does over Gen 1.

Pokemon games get horriblely outdated

You can have nostalgia for games and times you had playing but can still admit games aged faster than milk.

That's why remakes are important

>>33149557
Nostalgia can be either good or bad. But in your case i feel its more about you havung adhd than anything else. I recently played yellow expecting to feel similar and ended up having fun.

Genwunners aren't real anymore. All that remains is a massive victim complex and confirmation bias on your end.

>>33149923
That's one hot take

>Genwunners aren't real anymore.
>he says this the year after a game released solely for them caused a global phenomenon
>a week after a big event about said game gathered lots of people


You cant talk about confirmatiom bias when you outright deny reality.

Not him but it's true, you guys are doing it right now. So is the guy in this thread >>33150001

>Not him but it's true
Not the three guys you're replyng to, but its not.

>>33150221
>having such a victim complex he doesn't even reply properly
I bet you think I'm baiting and fishing for (you)'s huh?

We didn't evolve that way, it's a collateral damage of how the brain works.
If something feels good, brains makes it easier to do. So good memories fix, and are modified to be even better.
Shit memories feel bad so you don't like remembering those, and the less you use a memory, the more it fades.
When a nostalgiafag goes back to the subject of their nostalgia they often wonder why the fuck they even liked it in the first place.

>>33150021
There never was such a thing as a "genwunner". That's just a term people with shit taste created to deride people with good taste who know that Kanto is the best region (FR/LG only - technically not gen 1, but it is a remake that prominently features the original 150 Pokemon)

(you)

why do fish swim upstream to breed where they were born? same reason.
nostagia means it was good enough enviorment for us as kids. why shouldn't it be good enough for us adults as well?

>>33151050
Because kids are retarded and the times they like something decent are mere coincidence.
Adults too, but at least a few of them develop some taste.

Nostalgia is thinking pokémon was ever good

>>33149557
Humans are resistant to changes in the environment and think consistency is a good thing. Nostalgia probably evolved to compel humans to revisit familiar scenes where they used to survive in order to survive longer.

kids live under the influance of their parents. if that influance was enough to produce kids that reach adulthood, why shouldn't the offsprings do the same?

thats literly evolution. when the parents do something good, the kids learn and pass it to their kids to learn. thats why we have notalgia. because evolution.

>>33151403
Perhaps, but you're confusing "good enough" with "actual good": they are not the same.
You're also using natural selection to justify your point, when they're completely unrelated. "Good" and "bad" are concepts perceived on the human mind that are separated from the natural process of evolution: so the fact that evolution is heading one path doesn't mean we're can only perceive the results of those path as "good". You do know that the human race is slowly losing IQ as a collective/average, right? Most people don't think of that fact as a good thing.

Also, nothing you said contradicts anything in my post.
