I thought this was about gen Z’s obsession with backrooms/horror games at first lmao

It is like that though. A lot of indie horror games imitate early 3d graphics, either because it's cheap and easy, or to have emotional impact by evoking nostalgia. If you haven't actually played 3d games of early 90s, those horror games/videos will be your only exposure to these kind of visuals, so that uneasy liminal feeling will be the first one you'll get. So it's a bit of inversion going on there.
