Gaming Peaked at the PS3/360 and first years of the PS4.....every game company now nickles and dimes you even Nintendo

I miss when a game was 60 bucks and had everything and if you wanted more content you'd get like 10 Maps for online for 20 bucks or a 10+ hour expansion

Anyway the current ways games are made just...I play a lot less. I miss games like Plants Vs Zombies, Bio Shock, Dead Space, Red Dead, Dragon Age 1, Mass Effect.....etc

And no of course we have some cool games still coming out but....I used to be way more excited to get into a game now most just make you grind to make the game time longer or are filled with things to buy, I just miss old game design and also these companies trying to make great games which would result in great sales

Neat.

There’s so much that could be said about this, but not on this forum.

I’ll leave it at good news for the shareholders I guess.

And bad news for most of the studios, 20 billion in debt to EA means massive cuts will be incoming and we know it wont be in the management ranks....

Yeah, I don’t game nearly as much as I used to, but there’s also very few games that have me wanting to play nowadays. Like next Resident Evil game I’ll be there, if TLOU 3 ever gets made I’ll be there. I still want to play Alan Wake 2. But on the whole a lot of things these days that entice me more than anything are just remakes of old games with better graphics like RE games or Silent Hill 2.
