Modern games has become stale
| Didn't we just go over this in another thread?
| We JUST got over this. Op please just play more games
| I love talking about the same topic over and over again!
| Not true. Mainstream games have always sucked to some degree. Remember when people were hyped for Heavenly Sword?
Modern games I'm playing like Exanima, Highfleet, Disco Elysium, and Shadow Empires are fun af. Gaming never was better.
Making and publishing video games never has been easier and so we get much more stuff from many more places, so much more gems and a lot of dung to sift through.
| "Why Minecraft doesn't feel the same anymore" "Minecraft has changed" "Why are video games not fun anymore?"
fking hate those videos on youtube. What's next? "Why playing in the mud just isnt that fun anymore" "Has jumping in puddle changed?"
| These takes have become stale
| Gaming is better than ever. AAA has massive flaws, but even AAA has innovations and refinements that make it better than 10 years ago.
You're 10 years older, probably 10 years more cynical and 10 years harder to impress.
Yeah microtransactions and many companies monetization strats are bullshit, but gaming as a whole is better than ever, and those old games still exist. If they were better back then play 'em, you didn't play all of 'em.
| Witcher 3 sucks ass, that was where it all fell apart
| I think when it comes to AAA titles, though this isn't exclusive to them, it's just been a case of developers getting away with it because enough people don't care when they're being wrung dry like a towel and the cycle repeats when a new title is released just a year down the line.
$70 plus microtransactions in-game is more of a joke, the latter being the kind of stuff I'd expect from online F2P titles.
The bottom line is what it feels about, few games subjectively are worth it.
