Play bad games to really enjoy the good ones.

I've found that to really appreciate a well designed well written game, I often have to have played a relatively bad one before it.

For example I played morrowind a long time ago, then after a while played Diablo 2, then not long after when I played morrowind again, it seemed a lot better than I remembered.

Anyone else feel this?

It's oh so subjective . . ..

you probably just got too used to morrowind so when you got back to it it felt better

Ah well it must be different for everyone, but I'm talking about basically initial feelings here. The first time I played morrowind was for about half an hour, when I played diablo it was only for a few hours.

i don't know i am a big fan of the surprise me with how crappy you can be for $5 bin. some are really surprising. I ask myself. Did the person making this realized there is no point, no fun and no plot! then i stop playing diablo 2 and go back to the cheap games.
