The “industry” is getting increasingly whack but you can say that about anything business-related these days

We still getting all-time classics like Baldur’s Gate, Elden Ring, Cyberpunk, Ragnarok, etc and there’s more games to play across all genres than ever before now
The would be gamers are getting even more wack. They don't want to hear that part tho.

You gotta ask yourself what you actually want out of the hobby. If its it feel how you felt on christmas morning when you were 10, its probably not gonna happen.
Funny enough, I felt that shyt magnified on PS5 release as I watched my daughter experience her first console release. That shyt hit even harder. I even posted about it back then when it happened.

Oldhead adjacent L take.
Not only was there COVID but the generation is just REALLY starting if we're being honest.

And there's been real heat from both sides too and on PC.


My only critique is that graphics and non player AI hasn't jumped the way you would want :stopitslime:

But let's be fr, compare gaming in '14 and '04 to now shyt was way weaker back then and heavy on pockets.

Last gen was far worse. This gen may not have “da games” yet but the console are powerhouses. You can play any game made in the last 20 years in 4k 60fps.

Last gen was ruined by micro transactions.

It’s been alright, I think trash is a little harsh. I’d give it like a 7.5. Still got time for some heavy hitters to drop. Hell we got last of us 2 and GOT in 2020.

Honestly, I've had a great time this generation. I think I've gamed more this last year than I have compared the the previous 5.

Not to mention they about to release on of my favorite fighting games of all-time (MvC2) so we can all start getting online matches with a ranking system.

I personally can't wait for Visions of Mana, a lot of the complaints I saw about it are what I think make the game seem great to me.
