Though video games have made enormous leaps in quality over the last 10 years, the problems people have while playing them haven't gone away - those everyday problems simply changed with the times.
In a 12-panel comic strip published by Estonian artist Mart Virkus, creator of a webcomics blog Arcade Rage, the dilemmas of gamers in the '90s and early '00s are compared to those in recent years in a hilariously minimalist cartoon drawing style. The ubiquitous advent of Pokemon Go is most certainly referenced. Day-one gamers will find these relatable comics and the contrasts depicted all too real.
Have a look at these hilariously funny comics, have a walk down the memory lane, and tell us in the comments how your gaming woes have changed.

The days when online play wasn't really a thing was actually quite nice. There was no other option than going to the house of your friends or invite them over to play games.
