      That video is actually great, it's pretty surface level but the guy points out that all of this "WAHHH GAMES LE SUCK" nonsense is coming from dudebros who only play Halo, CoD, GTA V and Minecraft. If they just played *literally anything else* they wouldn't be so depressed . Same can be said for Ganker, if you homosexuals actually played fucking games again, you wouldn't be so doom and gloom all the time about the industry.

          Fifteen years ago Nintendo was charging money for 5kb ROMs which could be accessed in your browser.
          Hardware used to cost twice as much as it does today, and it broke way more frequently if it worked at all.
          Instead of DLC, you'd get shit like Master of Arena or Blue Shift, literally the same game resold to you at near full price just with assets moved around a little.
          Gaming journalists were just as awful too, especially in Europe. Read any magazine from the era, they cannot take anything seriously and constantly get basic facts wrong.
          Soooo much shovelware, at least now it's obvious but every other game on the PS2 was mediocre if not garbage.
          The industry hasn't changed. You just selectively ignore the parts that used to suck.

            My family has been building its own custom PC's since the early 90's, so you're factually wrong.
            >Instead of DLC, you'd get shit like Master of Arena or Blue Shift

            >Gaming journalists were just as awful too
            ofc they were. most of them are degenerate halfwits. they're not involved in the creation of a game tho.
            >Soooo much shovelware
            yup. there always were bad games. back in the 80's too. Difference is, some were great, but today all of the AAA is cancer.
            >The industry hasn't changed
            it did. the desires of bussineshomosexuals in the industry might not have changed, but the industry did with the improvement of the internet.
            >You just selectively ignore the parts that used to suck.
            a lot of stuff sucks at any time, it's just nature. At least the good videogames were creative, fighting the tech. limitations, pushing the boundaries, and were limitless in fantasy. Most devs weren't afraid to experiment too.

        You have to be actually blind and retarded to not understand that the industry as a whole is going to shit. AAA games make up 99% of the gaming market, like it or not and they are right now in the worst place they'd been since 80s. Just take the games you listed as an example. Imagine COD4 releasing right now, instead of 2007. It would be instant GOTY contender just by the sole fact that it's a completed competently made game with little bugs and no microtransactions. It would be unbelievably praised by all. That's the absolute state of modern gaming industry.

          AAA gaming aren't 99% of the market and there are plenty of gems. Yes in some ways games have gotten worse (especially with AAA and mobile), but there has been plenty of improvement.

                Most videogames that release today are enjoyable, if you can't have fun with them you might genuinely have autism. Sorry, not everything is going to change your life, it's fine for a game to just be a game.

            He might be schizo, but he has a good point. You can pick any year 00-10 and see several AAA genre-defying cult classics, that weren't niche indies and hundreds of thousands or millions of people played them.

              Because it's become so predictable at this point when someone pulls the inevitable "name ONE good game now then?? Hmm?? I'll wait ;)" line that once you say any game, they'll just find some way to shit on it. It's the oldest fucking bad faith trick in the book and there's just no point going back down that road for the umpteenth time.

                BG3 and AC6 are loved or liked by majority on Ganker. Don't know about RE4, remakes don't interest me and I don't read RE4 threads. Nobody makes the argument that no games are enjoyable nowadays. However, they are MUCH fewer than what we had 20 years ago. BG3 now is even seen as an oddity and one-of-a-kind phenomenon, but if it was released in early 2000s, it would be just another good CRPG. Excluding modern graphics, of course.

                And yet many, many of the early threads for both games were trying to fabricate a narrative to hate on them. With BG3 it was pushing the degeneracy angle, hard. With AC6, I can't tell you how many threads I've seen with the title "What went wrong." Maybe now people have settled into liking BG3 and the narrative push failed (since it was hard to deny it was a great game at a certain point). But that doesn't stop the early throngs on posters trying to sell the board that each new release is another tortanic.

      I became extremely cynical about all art I engaged with. I also played games I didn't actually really like very much (I went from a kid who played single player RPGs and platformers to someone who only paid attention to multiplayer FPS's basically). You have to relearn how to earnestly enjoy things again and also potentially reconsider what you bother paying attention to. I burned out hard on both Vidya and music but I've bounced back and I'm enjoying myself a ton again. Irony poisoning is very real. I enjoy VNs now even which is something my past self would have mocked endlessly but my past self wasn't enjoying himself so fuck em.

    If you're a dopamine addict this is true. Your receptors acclimate over time, and you don't get the same release. That's just what's called the human condition.
    You have to grow up and learn to appreciate games as the experience and the skill that goes into making them. Like you would appreciate a piece of art in a museum (not saying games are art). Of course this precludes you avoiding common denominator slop that only exists as glorified dopamine buttons.

      Many of those games were actually delayed significantly, so Sony made that lineup to save face after stuff like GT3 and DMC1 took longer to develop.
      When people post that image to try and imply gaming was better back in the day, they are just reinforcing a marketing move by Sony that was for a specific time, place and context. It says very little about the industry then or now.

        I see 10 good games, many of which are still popular cult classics.

        And Do YOU realize that many of the games you erroneously call "AAA" from the past were in fact not made with insanely high budgets? Throwing money at a product never made it better, you're foolish to think otherwise.

          There was a very clear distinction between "AAA" game budgets and the rest since late 90s.
          >Throwing money at a product never made it better, you're foolish to think otherwise.
          Not what I am saying at all. It's the out of touch CEOs, who bloat gaming budgets. That's also part of the problem, not even just in vidya, but all entertainment as a whole.
          I am not here to suck of AAA games. But they are a very clear indication of state of things. They are what AA and indie studios look up to. They are what makes up the gaming market financially. To ignore them is to be wilfully ignorant.

        If the argument is that games aren't fun anymore, everyone has to agree that they are not fun. You can't have even one person disagree, even if their reason isn't great.

        >Name one game
        >But I don't like that argument
        >You should just agree with me because... JUST BECAUSE!!

        Probably should rephrase the statement to 'Gaming has become less enjoyable in the past couple of years.', or 'I think the majority of newer titles aren't as good as the older ones.'

If we are talking about recent releases, you can also add AC6 and Lies of P. Compare it with something like Starfield, that's an example of a game Ganker universally shits on. DMC5 is just a special case, it's probably THE game Ganker loved in the last years, but it's not the only one.

    yup, I have a Nintendo Switch Lite loaded with games, but I still waste my time with horny and gacha a lot more.
    I didn't even finish Sonic Frontiers yet.
    Le Open World meme is boring as fuck and ruined SMTV even.

      There is nothing new or exciting. Modern games are just remakes of old shit and your brain doesn't enjoy the same shit over and over, that's crazy.
      I'm assuming AI will be the next step in gaming.

    What games are you tackling in your backlog anons?

    Right now I'm going through Halo:MCC. Just hit the Arbiter mission. Honestly I'm surprised CE and 2 still look pretty good despite being 2 decades old.

      Finally got around to MGSV. Can't believe it's been 9 years. Watching the trailer and all the Doritoposting on Ganker is a comfy memory.

    You'd legitimately have to be a depressed retard who consumes nothing but mainstream AAA slop to claim otherwise. Maybe get another hobby if you're not willing to sink your teeth into vidya.
