Kids today know what a floppy disk looks like, but not what one is. They only know it as a “save” icon in games and apps.
And the phone call icon being a landline
And the email icon being an envelope
It’s called a skeuomorph, and many times the camera symbol is one too, as most modern cameras don’t look like that.
None of these horror games show players the true terror of VHS: the soul-rending sound of the VCR eating another tape. That cost $15-30 in 90s money!
