    I’ll contribute this shrine to Chrono Cross, but the whole site itself is a nice look back at a previous era of design.

      Oh wow, that whole site is a gem, I hadn't heard of it before. I'm planning on playing a couple of games that have shrines on there, too. I'll definitely use those as a reference before checking some fandom.com site.

      They're in the blog post that the original post is linking to. (If you're using Lemmy, you can click the title again to go to it.)

        I didn’t even notice your post was a link, I’m feeling extra dumb right now (i mostly access via web)

    Kind of amazing that the KOF videos are still there and work.

      Yeah, I love that. I figure this is because a site like that one is "a bunch of files in a folder on a server somewhere, including the videos," whereas nowadays the videos would be on a separate CDN or media host, which is why those tend to break separately.
