Interesting! Yeah the early 3d era had very unforgiving controls all things considered, usually as a result of camera systems not reaching maturity. You sorta have to plan your movement around what it’s good at and lots of newer age gamers aren’t keen on what can feel like a big step backwards. They might like SOH better though! Much more customisable controls and camera

I feel like N64 games have aged well in the same way that NES games have aged well. They’re both primative and compromised, and you either like the effect that has or you don’t. I think most people would agree that blurry textures and low resolutions are pretty ugly for 3D and I see why, but the low detail looks uncluttered and easy to parse, and everything being so angular is a fun exaggeration which I like as its own style. I guess I have a pet hate for people talking like it’s not valid as an art style, and I feel like that may have been how NES games were treated in the years after its obsolesence, now 8 bit pixel art is just funky and cool, and has been for decades.
I’ve been playing DK64 again with the new PC recomp, and now I can play it at 60FPS I have been appreciating the texture work, seeing it at stable framerates it looks so much prettier, a lot of the environments and some enemies have baked in lighting in the textures and while it’s still low poly some stuff feels closer to PS2 vibes than N64, I’d say they took the visuals to a much higher level than any other retail N64 game I’ve seen
Well it sounds like your partner is telling you he loves you even if things stay the way they are and that should make the two of you very happy. It sounds like you are doing this, but just remember it is always worth trying to improve your own mental health situation even when things feel hopeless. It’s not selfish to need help and support as long as you and your partner have healthy boundaries and can communicate openly and honestly.
