All the articles on HN look the same, identical ASCII character set, English prose...

I like his games and have spent some money on them over the last 20 years, never regretted it.

They are not focused to appeal superficially visually. Someone who solely ranks games by polygon count would be horribly disappointed. Thats just not his market.

Not a very good comparison since most games do not look like this, while most written texts do. I'm not saying the games are bad anyway. I'm actually hyped to try them out.

But by same logic, aren't all text only games same?

You have a point but I was actually just referring to the visual aspect where I would say the same thing about text games.

They're all good games. And computer game sequels are nothing like movie sequels. Games get the chance to do the same thing better, more conveniently, with better graphics.
