C64 demos are lame

@Doom^IRIS

It turns out there are no average people. And I wouldn't say current Amiga releases aren't interesting. They're sort of in between PC releases and C64 ones, for better or worse. At least Amiga demos don't make your ears bleed, and you can actually tell one effect apart from the next when watching an Amiga production. Mind you I've seen some jaw-dropping C64 stuff, but not at any parties I've been to recently.

The C64 community may now hate me if they are so inclined. Go on, you can do it. I know you're angry. And anger leads to hate. Hate leads to hatred. Hatred leads to malice. Malice leads to enmity. Enmity leads to repugnance. Repugnance leads to bitterness. And it sort of stops there because my thesaurus sucks.


Really, C64 demos are lame. It's like they all use the same palette, and only like 16 cols or summin. Like a little bit of originality would kill you. I also think if the C64 coders knew more about cache optimization, that'd help a lot. And I hate how AHX is so popular on the C64. I mean, it's a nice sound and all, but really, it's been done too much already.

He is a troll, don´t know much about C64 coding.
Hey, but next time we tell him how to code his amiga and how to optimize the blitter.

But in the end it is lame. Best is not react on people which don´t know what they wrote.
By reaction on it he gets the attention he wants and guys like him aren´t worth it in my opinion.





the attention he wants? i dont think the intention with his posts was that oswald was going to seek comfort on a totally different forum inhibited with other people who were also too stupid to get the jokes

Noone should joke with c64 in negative context! Period.
We're dirty serious about our vanilla love machine.

Yeah Hollowman, that's no funny at all. You and your Amiga friends should learn some manners! Noone digs those rude jokes around here.

Humour isnt funny when explained, but in an attempt to kill this thread once and for all:

1. "It's like they all use the same palette, and only like 16 cols or summin. Like a little bit of originality would kill you"

On some other machines you can choose from a big amount of possible colors and have in your palette. On the c64 there are only 16 colors in total, pretty hard to find some other colors,no?

2."I also think if the C64 coders knew more about cache optimization, that'd help a lot."

i think it was yago who had some other ideas, but afaik the c64 doesnt have a cache to optimize for

3."And I hate how AHX is so popular on the C64. I mean, it's a nice sound and all, but really, it's been done too much already"

As stated already:"AHX is designed to sound as much like a Commodore 64 as possible."

That the c64 often sounds like a c64 is pretty much the same problem as the c64 colors often looking the same


It could be argued if these statements are funny or not, but atleast to me it was pretty obvious that they werent meant to be taken seriously, but judging by this thread a lot of people think otherwise
