Using open source tools for FPGA development

Hopefully someone with more experience has a better answer but I'd say use whatever gets you across the finish line. I had a lot of luck with simple logic designs just using verilog but as things got complex I leaned harder into gui stuff like multisim. Playing with all the tools will help you with job interviews later. Even if you don't end up favoring a specific tool being able to say what you like and don't like about the tools will go a long way.

Modern consoles could never

I think the coolest part of this era was the ICs were developing so fast that in a short amount of time there were more powerful chips on the fucking cartridges than in the base system, so as new games came out they extended the capabilities more and more.

Subnautica, I thought it was just minecraft under water, which sounded ok. Didn't expect it to have a story, absolutely didn't expect it to have an interesting story. The audio logs had some charming characters, ham and cheese had me cracking up whilst trying not to die. BUT, the exact moment I realized this game was special was the translated message you get after getting your arm poked, suddenly hours of environmental story telling snap into place as you realize what is about to happen. 11/10 would buy again.
