People publish bullshit videos rambling about how gaming is dead or dying or not fun anymore whatever bullshit. I argue that these types of videos are far more dangerous specifically because it encourages gamers to simply give up as opposed to pointing out problems and pushing back against what is ruining the game. I’ve seen this happen with Halo Infinite, and CoD Mobile where not enough people pushed back against problems with those games.

    bullshit videos rambling about how gaming is dead or dying

    To be real a lot of these FUCKING NERDS are kids reminiscing about just how great it was when fucking GTA IV and Black Ops were big. As if the seventh generation of consoles is not where the downhill slide really began. As if cawadoody was not reviled through its sales success.

    But also yea, if a video like this does not end with “and instead you can play all kinds of cool indie and retro games!” it is nerd shit and dangerous doomerism.

      *cough cough* Halo 4

      and instead you can play all kinds of cool indie and retro games!

      Or buy older AAA games. MCC is great and all minus the ongoing hacker epidemic
