At this point they almost all look the same and are now progressing into more woke nonsense. Before the woke shit was a bit a subtle.
Feel like they all have the same generic gameplay and ideas
Just tried Sable demo, cool soundtrack and artwork but it's basically a walking simulator where you play a fat muslim
And don't get me started on pixel art games. They were a fun throwback at first but not anymore
Anyways maybe I just think this way because of all the trash indie games getting released that I find it hard to find a good one
Enjoyed Katana Zero, River City girls and some others lately but I feel like they are few and far between
8/10 AAA games are also a disappointment lately, and the ones that look like they would be awesome end up being a live service game or co-op.
Hard to find good single player story driven games lately outside of some of the Sony exclusives like Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, Days gone etc.
Maybe i'm just getting old
Rant over
The games industry is doing this on purpose, they couldn't quite win over the public support needed for their new model to be accepted...so they are using the same excuse as everyone else right now and are starving the market, when they finally start making games again it will ALL be the new model...and people will be pathetically grateful that their hobby is back they won't notice the shambling gait or the mild necrosis nor the awful smell, they will fling their arms around this ghoul and will be ravaged.
I've been playing games since 1982, it's NEVER been this corporate...I'm ready to leave my lifelong hobby as a going concern, I'm getting less and less able to even do it anymore, so you kids...sorry about not stopping them, we did in all honestly, try.
Me and my vast library of old games will do just fine.
Plus there's other shit to do. I don't think this gambit is going to pay off in the long run, but we'll see.
