People come up with the wildest stuff to avoid admitting capitalism is making things worse.
Most peoples complaints about modern gaming boil down to them being rushed to make investors happy and being too expensive. The problem is the same enshittification that happens to every industry once it gets popular and exploitable.
Also there are lots of great modern games, you just have to look in the indie section now.
EDIT: just realised this is from 2003 lmao wtf
Video games died by suicide in 2003. Time for us all to accept this.
RIP imma go back to hallucinating Baldurs Gate 3
In the aftermath, we've just been replaying the same games with different numbers tacked onto them as we self-punish ourselves in a ludo-purgatory realm, seemingly for an eternity. Unwilling to accept this truth.
Kojima tried to tell us.
20 years of death throes sounds horrible
RIP Squaresoft
Halo 2, Half-Life 2, Burnout 3 and Trails in the Sky all came out in 2004, so lol.
All of these are sequels in a series.
Shut it down.
Trails in the Sky a sequel? I guess you can technically say it's the sixth Legend of Heroes game if you're the kind of nerd who knows about that (which I am), but it has nothing to do with the previous ones and is the start of its own series.
