My nephew called 'Vexx' a bad game and it really got to me
Honestly, I was showing him some old PS2 games and he tried Vexx for like ten minutes. He said it felt clunky and the camera was broken. Tbh, that game was my whole summer in 2003. I must have spent 60 hours collecting those shadow wraith hearts. It made me realize how much we just accepted jank back then because the ideas were so cool. Does anyone else have a game like that, where you know it's flawed but you still love it?

Oh man, that's brutal! Kids these days have no patience for the sacred jank. Try explaining the camera in the original Tomb Raider games, it was like fighting a separate boss just to look around. You just learned to live with it because exploring those tombs felt like real magic. We put up with a lot for those cool ideas!

Right @umaprice, that camera was the real final boss of every level.
