Deliberately misinterpreting “bad representation”: Darwinia, the PC game (one of the first ever non-Valve games on Steam).

As a teenager I thought it had “bad graphics” because its art style was all polygons and 2D sprites. So the game’s representation on-screen was bad. See what I did there?

I don’t even remember why I bought and played it at all, probably just curiosity, but it wasn’t long before I fell in love with it. Within a week I switched from “this game sucks” to “I love this game”.
