Am I the only one who doesn't really care about graphics?
As video games develop more and more over the years, companies have been making them more and more realistic-looking. I can guess this is related to expectations, but am I the only one who doesn't care about graphics? We could be using the same processing power to store worlds that have as much exploration potential as the Earth itself if we weren't afraid to save on processing power by going back to 8-bit.

yeah, but I assume you are a terminal nerd and not a normie. I kinda feel same like you however I do so because I can't afford a graphic card. I wonder if someone has already made a text based open world game.
plus it also depends on your age. I assume you are a old and don't like new stuff. but graphics has it's own place. eg, you can play plain minecraft and you play minecraft with realistic graphics mod. you will find a huge difference.
I was working on a text based open world game but it was kind of terrible so I stopped working on it. I should redo it but better some day.
Here it is but be warned it is not well made https://gitlab.com/TurboWafflz/terminalcraft
the game you mentioned is good. however when I played it, it crashed saying "index out of range" error.
Oops, unsurprising though, I haven't even tried running it in years. Maybe some day I'll get around to making a new fancy version in rust
I'm 24 and do like new stuff, I just think of visual appeal as secondary. Imagine if the same processing power for one 3D Pokémon world powered all the Pokémon worlds in two dimensions.
2D Pokemon games are really great. I used to play Pokemon firered in a potato mobile phone for hours and hours. even though It didn't have great graphics it was fun. I agree with you that some games can be really good in 2D too. however modern games like COD and GOW has their own place.
TIL you can play Pokémon Firered on a phone.
Oh man, you are gonna love emulators.
