I hate ChatGPT 5, it's so bad, it's so lazy and it won't let me switch back to 4o cause I'm on Plus, this might really make me switch to Anthropic's app now, I'm actually annoyed by how bad it is, it's making my productivity go 10x lower cause nothing it says works

'Metroidvania' is often used to describe Animal Well's clever environmental design and Billy Basso cites Metroid as an inspiration. But have you ever played the original Metroid? This NES title will be playable this weekend as part of the Animal Well exhibit!

🎼 That sound. That mountain. That feeling. If you played a Sierra game in the '90s, you know exactly what we’re talking about. The logo alone was a masterpiece—audio and visual. We found a video that captures every Sierra startup from 1989–1999. 👇 Link in the reply!
