      This is what I always feel when people complain about the state of video games.

      Yeah, some of us grew up blowing dust out of cartridges and we’d have 5 games per year. There are hundreds of thousands of indie games catering to every taste, many of them are really good. Not every game needs to be AAA slop.

        So many youtube videos like this, with nerds myopically focused on AAA trash failing to acknowledge that indie games are fucking awesome rn.

        It’s the same thing with movies. Everyone complains about how everything out of Hollywood is garbage, but there are so many good indie/artsy films out there.

      You just have to ignore every AAA or tradpub game. Indies and solo devs.

    Videogames never had a chance. It’s too impure of an art to stand the test of time, too intertwined with consumerist technology fetishism and too good at being psychologically manipulative skinner boxes and too bad at being anything else. I’d gladly sacrifice every game I ever liked to get rid of the scourge that is mobile and live-service games slowly lobotomizing anyone who plays them.
