I love how video games are evolving, whereas older PS1/PS2 era games have a certain aesthetic that enhances that gritty/grimy atmosphere due to their technological limitations. Games nowadays are way too clean-looking. Like how movies evolved from practical to digital effects. CGI makes things way too clean versus the tangible effects that real practical effects bring.
The grim aesthetics of the old Silent Hill and Resident Evil always gave a creepier vibe than the new ones.
