          Nah games and games design sucks too, battle royale, always online, focus on draining more money.

          Great games are a rarity comoared to 15 years ago.

            No way. There’s a deluge of great stuff to play. I can keep narrowing my requirements for what I find acceptable to buy and play, and I’ve still got way too much to play. It’s just not going to be the stuff with the most advertising dollars, typically.

              Absolutely likely the case, I am not a big enough gamer to go find other games. Currently playing AC Mirage, will probably play Jedi at some stage. I never get too deep past AAA, not interested enough or have enough time to spend a lot of money.

                Well, if you’re not interested enough to look past the surface, it seems a bit unfair to criticize all modern gaming, doesn’t it? There’s so much good stuff out there. Sometimes you can just search for a couple of keywords for a type of game you’re looking for, then check out a let’s play for some of the top results for a few minutes to see what it’s like before you buy. And if you’ve only played AAA for so long, there’s a good chance that the thing you were looking for is years old and discounted, so you can probably get into it for cheap.

                  Well I am comparing like with like, I have never delved deep into the steam library. My gaming collection has almost entirely been purchasable off the shelf at gamestop. So the drop in quality and direction is accurate within the scope I am referring to.

                    Sure, but there are so many game releases these days, and most of them aren’t found on the shelves of GameStop anymore, including the best ones.
