I never understood the "game aged poorly" thing, some games i played back then I can easily go back to them and have fun (and no, nostalgia doesn't play a big role here), while some games I've never played as a kid I can still find them fun to play or see its pros and cons, so I can't have nostalgia bias towards them.
So why does this aged poorly thing gets thrown at old games so much?

Some things may age poorly due to technical limitations at the time. I recently played System Shock 1 and while the interface is clunky as hell, although you do get used to it pretty fast, the gameplay, atmosphere and story are ahead of their time, to the point where it could compete directly with anything in the market today. And that game is almost 25 years old.

Some games have mechanics that seem outdated due to being improved upon in the years since their release. Sometimes you don't realize how many little quality of life improvements were made over the years until you go back and realize how frustrating or tedious some old games can be.

I’m not sure I’d call those aspects ahead of their time, when games rarely, if ever, have reached those levels since then
