The problem here, is multi-factored.

1. Generational Gap.
—> People age out and become the minority. We are in that group.

—> The new people who come out haven’t experienced what we have, so they don’t have the same level of quality expectance.


2. People stuck in the mindset that AAA = Best.

—> There are people who think anything AAA+ is great, and anything below is bad.

—> There are people who just see a few bad games, and think anything in the Indie and AA space are bad.

—> Mischaracterization on what genres actually exist outside the AAA+ space.


3. You have people that have the mindset.

—> It will get fixed eventually.

—> It is their money, so they can spend it however they want. Not realizing, they are paying into a worse system.

—> Micro/DLC is optional. Forgetting, or not knowing or experiencing. A time that existed, when all of that came free or resold fully in a new version with more added on top.

4. Protecting corporation choices.

—> Right now, you have people supporting $80 base game. Which is completely ridiculous. Not realizing.

1. A digital copy should be far cheaper.

2. Corporations are just charging us for their mismanagement of funds.

What happens, is that corporations see people are willing to pay, so they raise the price.

—> Argument that games would be far more expensive from back then if it was today.

Ignoring, that back then the market crashed. On top of that, the wage was more in line to keep up with the cost. Wages have been pretty stagnant.

Let alone the economy right now makes it even harder to afford non necessities.

—> You have those that try to insult people who cannot afford it. Those people perpetuates the cycle. Corporations just see it as a win for them.

5. People who just buy.

—> Casual buyers. They don’t really pay attention, and just buy without thinking much on it. It is only after they get more experience do they stop to think about it.

—> This continues with the defending of corporations. You have those who just accept it, and corporations see they can just get away with giving out less and lower quality, and charge more for things.

In the end, it falls on the consumers. You can’t blame a corporation for making money. You have to blame the consumers.
I ain reading all that but I agree

I never understood the whole cult-like following of games. If a game is bad, I’m gonna call it out.

Take Pokemon for instance.

People actively accept less and less. The recent games? So devoid of exploration and discovery, that it feels like it is in the Alpha stage.

I pretty much critique what a game lacks, and the polish of it. This part here has nothing to do with my preference, and all to do with what it is missing.

Then comes how it is handled everywhere else.

Now, I might entirely cut out games from a publisher based on action.

Nintendo for instance, never buying a game from them again. This is solely due to them trying to sue over patents, that they didn’t even make at the time.

Let alone, have no standing for it. On top of their hypocrisy from using ideas from other games, but trying to shut down others from doing the same.

Though, this also goes into the hard fans. That tries to justify things that are clearly not allowed, and are not holding Nintendo responsible.

As a result, they themselves are saying it is fine to have less.
At this point: Nintendo Adults = Disney Adults = Cringe Entertainment Corpo Cultism

My time in nightreign has been pretty fun. The multiplayer is great when playing with friends, and I love the character stories.

But is it worth $40 usd? Not unless you have at least 2 friends that will consistently play the game with you. But I don't think it's automatically bad because it reuses stuff from older games. a lot of the reused bosses (specifically those not from elden ring) got some moveset changes, and the new bosses are pretty cool (for the most part).

You know what a great gaming company is? One that should be an example to us all?
EA Games.
You should all play every EA Game for at least 50 hours.
Someone should pass a law so that all sports games are made by EA games.

Sports games are one of the biggest offenders for rehashing every year, but they have the backing of actualy rabid RL sports fans.

Ironically, EA has recently dropped several sports that they had exclusive deals for.
