- I just needed to vent my frustrations about modern game releases and how many of them are released either broken or lacking content on top of being $70.

I remember a time when bugs were a feature and not GAME DESTROYING, look at Just Cause 2
@@TheBananamonger you've obviously never played any pre2015 open world games
i remember seeing this bug in JC2 where if you successfully get past the kill barrier sometimes the ground will just disappear and if you go to it you instantly die and fly into the air

Video games need a spider-verse effect so hard right now. Like give us a game so polished and full of passion to inspire the other studios to actually enjoying making video games again
I am sure that the people working in them are still passionate about it, the higher ops are not.
@@AlekeiCG I do not look at gollum and see passion, I see a product pushed to be released for the sake of releasing a product
@@WestGX I do believe that the people working on it were passionate about it, but not the ones making the schedules, calling the shots and giving deadlines. The product in itself is mediocre, but that does not encompass every employee that worked on it.
@@uraynuke Time will show if their whining will persevere
Spider-Man 2 is coming out in October, maybe that'll help
I like the Zelda point because my favourite game ever is Majora’s Mask, which is a game which uses basically every asset available from OOT.
This video put all of my thoughts towards the current gaming landscape into a nicely condensed sequence. Very well done, dude, looking forward to more from you!
First of your videos I’ve seen and man I love this! Keep on the good content.
This video came up in my recommended for no real reason, you must be doing something right here. Keep at it.
I now will only buy games years later after they are actually finished and the entire game available at a reasonable price. So sick of games half finished and roping off half of it under DLC. Makes me glad I’m more into movies and tv.
Ah yes, the iconic “apology.jpg”
Nintendo Laughs in the face of Modern gaming honestly
Larian and Fromsoft laugh to the face of Nitendo bad practices
@@ni9274 also true
@@ni9274Oh yeah, their DMCA legal team really sucks, At least they're developers and employees are cool
Im sure im not the first but, dont forget that 90%of the time the item shops are filled and fully functional with items 1/3 the cost game.
Ah damn, that would’ve been a great point to bring up.

Bro I’m shocked you only have 2k subs because from the editing to even your delivery I thought this was so professionally done. Definitely earned my sub man
Modern game companies like modern companies in general said "Talent retention is completely unnecessary" they said "the money we will save with the revolving door of minimum wage interns that have replaced entry level jobs it will more than justify the disgusting quality and prolonged development time" they were wrong or at the very least they didn't pass the savings on to consumers to make the product more attractive. They have to reverse engineer the previous version before they can even start work but what is the alternative? Career development and job security. Can have that can we
Thankfully we have games like Witcher 3, Hogwarts Legacy, Red Dead Redemption 2, Dead Space Remake. Not all are bad
100% and 2023 may be of the strongest years in gaming ever
I highly disagree with the hogwarts legacy pick, but the rest stand true
@@lit4l1fe22 I love Hogwarts Legacy a lot. As a Harry Potter enjoyer.
@@ThisChannelIsAbandoned300 I dislike Hogwarts legacy a lot, as a trans person
@@Monday-Lope Bro Jk had nothing to do with the game. That controversy was stupid.
Is this a game with warthogs? 8:01
Still playing Arma 3. A DECADE OLD military sandbox. Being kept alive by the modding community. It’s glorious. Great vid brotha ❤
Maybe the game industry needs to slow down on the advancement on tech and actually work to make modern tech functional
I genuinely love modern gaming, sure there are issues but there are still quite a lot of good modern games however I can understand the frustrations that modern gaming presents
You can't possibly be addressing the same "modern gaming" everyone else is, man. Games are expensive, buggy, full of useless repetitive content with big ass empty open worlds.... If you mean indie gaming or some other very rare releases, then sure but that is absolute not the "modern gaming" scene nowadays.
movies suffer the same, i was looking for tickets and everything sucked so bad that they were replaying shrek 2 (a movie from 19 years ago mind you) in order to get sales
I thought this was going to be another muh modern gaming le bad video, but you actually brought up decent points to the subject. Great video.
Yea those videos are everywhere! They are truly brain dead takes! There are plenty of great games out there! Go play them instead!
Isn't there a legal context where companies are forced to support a product for X years? Like Rockstart with RDO, for example?
You have released the game, you have like X number of players, you are legally bound to support the game for X years....
The last shit storm game I played was Ghost Recon Breakpoint. I played the beta, and that was a mess, granted that was a beta, but a couple months later and released the game no different. One year later and it got numerous updates and patches just to be playable drove long time fans like myself away from GR.
I miss the times when you got the finished game on disc and there'd be the odd patch update
I miss the old Ghost recons
Atleast games get released with the important bits, like the store working on day 1.
Why does bro only have 2k subs, u deserve more keep up the grind nice video.
shall we all go back to one-and-done releases guys? Or what is the solution?
Just stay away from AAA and you will be fine
Or wait for a year and buy them on sale after they've been patched.
Except playstation exclusives, most of them are great
Here before 10k squad.
STOP. BUYING. THESE. GAMES.
I think botw was one of the shitiest games in the last decade so screw totk. And there hasn't been a game worth touching in the last 5 years. And jedi is EA so I'd never waste anything on it. I dont give money to EA, Activision blizzard, Bethesda, Ubisoft, rockstar, cdpr, konami, 2k. Because I am smart enough to not reward shit companies that screw the players at every opportunity
You’re so objectively wrong, some of the best AAA games ever where made in the last 5 years.
Do you play games to have fun or do you play games to reward companies ? If a companies make a great game what’s the point of not rewarding them by buying a game ?
Players only pay for games, if you don’t pre-order there is no reason you should get screwed by a company, you can even refund most AAA games after hours of playtime if you don’t like them.
It seems you’re a boomer who only like old games and can’t accept that masterpiece are being made every year by Aaa studios.
Just this year we have: RE4R, TOTK, Armored Core 6, Baldur’s gate 3, FF16 and Starfield
@@ni9274 re4r is a remaster, totk is more of the same, baldur's gate 3 is an indie game, ff16 is more of the same, and starfield is bethesda. you could only cough up 6 AAA games, 3 of which were more of the same and one wasn't even AAA. that leaves you with armored core 6 and starfield. compare this to 2007 which easily had 20+ good AAA games.
people aren't "boomers who only like old games" that "can't accept that masterpieces are being made every year," people miss when you had more than 2 semi-passable AAA games. you're just another anime pfp slinging around your awful, uninformed opinion.
Not the marvel's agwengers ugggh🤮
Good video ❤
Aye it is indeed some malarchy drg is wonderful example of of doing pve squad shooter right. I dont play anymore cause tween my own shite youtube n dabbling in rpgmaker as hobby no real time but the fact I still feel the urge to shout a rock and stone with random strangers n remember those awesome moments of near loss on depth 5 missions says quite a bit 😅
Great video
Accept it.
As long as the products sell, as long as the majority of the gamers consist of consumerists who eat golden shit like it's no tomorrow.... nothing will change. If we, gamers that are not happy with the current state of gaming were the majority, i am pretty sure we would not have allowed for this.
It is what it is, the good thing is that old games still exist and there are alot out there, and they are very good.
Play old games, and stop having expectations, the industry is dead.
You know companies wouldn't have to send apologies constantly if they properly tested their game. Is it really that hard to at least have it in a mostly complete state? Sonic Adventure is a great game and also a buggy one but it is stable enough to be enjoyable. Did Bugthesda have to send out any apologies (Maybe for Fallout 76)? I only expected Gollum to be mediocre, not worst game of the year. Sorry. EA is an evil company for a reason. CD Projekt Red is a small studio? They made huge 100+ hour games.
I didn't have a problem with Jedi Survivor but I also didn't get it on PC. Just release the damn game when it's actually complete. I don't think that was the exact quote. Playstation is definitely a better console than XBox.
That's quite big. That's what she said! A lot of Indie games are better. I played Bloodstained and enjoy it. I can even mod the PC version. Konami isn't making a proper Castlevania game anymore are they?
Even though Nintendo charged $70 for TOTK it was definitely worth it
I'm glad Forspoken released a demo. I might have gotten it but that game was pretty boring. OHHHHHHHHH! EW! DUDE! WHAT THE FU-
Jedi Survivor is a decent game but the PC version was the most broken version.
"we are sorry for releasing a broken game for the 10th time in a row heres a useless pop up" "HOW ABOUT YOU APOLOGIZE BY FUCKING FIXING THEM IN LESS THAN A DECADE" "no that would be overdelivering our developers cant work more than 30 minutes a year or they die from exhaustion"
Gollum was GOTY though
sadly indie games such as horror games are failing as well such as garten of banban
Spread the word, abandon the other two, become a Nintendo fan. The other two fell off HARD, but Nintendo has only gotten better.
No thanks, we have fromsoft, Larian, Bethesda, square enix
@@ni9274 inconsistent. Nintendo’s idea of a bad year is not releasing a triple A game
@@minecrafter3448I'm a Nintendo fan!
I'm also PC and Xbox as well
just look at Hollow Knight Silksong. Because of the delays I pray it's as good as the original game, maybe even better
12:35 hahahaa
Nintendo has pressure to deliver. They only make games and they have to hit or they're done.
Sony and Microsoft do other things alongside gaming so their strategy is always led by the marketing and financial departments cause they can afford it. Fun isnt even in the building with them.
"Indie" carries stygma, and when they're being looked at for awards aaa games win, they shouldn't be called indie like its some kind of insult. I know indie by the literal sense but the aaa makers dont.
Indie devs have the same thing nintendo does, a pressure to deliver fun games. Ubisoft doesnt. You're rewared for delivering financial unicorns.
Hey man, don't shit on Tears of the Kingdom. That's like dogging Majora's Mask for using Ocarina of Times assets 🤣
I might have come off as a little harsh, but truth be told it’s legit a 10/10 in my eyes. The issues are so minimal that it doesn’t matter
@@BlueGlare8haha I'm just poking at you, amazing video bro! Definitely earned the new subscribers you're getting, this was on my recommended so maybe the algorithm gods are going to bless you. Keep it up king 👑
Oh and I wish you all would stop saying ehnix. It is E nix
Fingers crossed for some upcoming releases. Stalker 2.... fuck thats all im actually excited for. This man has a point
Guys don't fall into that shit please.
Yes big shit dead line from the boss are really trash
BUT
The dev team from pretty much all studio are made with so many garbage people that make me wondering how the F they did get a job.
And all of this trash make... trash game. And it's also easy to understand when you see all those leaks, information from old dev (or current dev more complicate when you don't know them)
drg mentioned, video liked
Gaming is dead
Exclusives are the best games to play these days.
Gollum 1 was really good i honestly am excited for gollum 2
Can we just, forgive sonic 06 for a moment and say…. At least it tried to be good, at least there was passion put into it, it all just went to waste at the end.
Yeah I'm starting to think Sonic'06 Isn't that terrible, Sure, it's gameplay is mixed but I love it's story and CGI cutscenes
Games these days suck 90% of the time at best.
Also, just stop giving developers a pass for their mistakes. Fromsoft is the perfect example of this. They have developed a community and reputation that any mistake found in their game just makes the game ''hard''. And their games are ''hard but fair'' and require ''skill''. Yeah, no. That is not true. There is a LOT of BS in their games that gets glossed over. Fighting a big boss (fire giant), big boss who moves fast (gargoyles), boss who teleports out of your view (astel), boss who is lanky and hard to hit (death rite bird), etc.? The camera and FOV are your biggest enemies making these bosses unnecessarily harder. Wouldn't be an issue in a slower paced RPG or non combat oriented game, but thats not the case here.
There are better skill based games like trackmania, distance, doom, sim's, etc. where you generally aren't limited by technical hurdles. And I'm sure there's more examples. Now, sure fromsoft's ER is an open world. HOWEVER, just because of that they cannot make it be this bad.
I do wonder what would people say if ID software released doom eternal without an FOV slider, 60fps cap, shitty camera, lackluster optimization (no upscaling option, not even FSR was added at the very least in ER), make certain commands unnecessarily harder to execute (like 2H weapon, no option to bind sprint and dodge to another key), etc. And they did that for 4 games (ds1, ds2, ds3, ER). Is fromsoft exempt from this? Why not try to improve these issues?
Thats just the technical aspect I've mentioned mostly. And no, you CAN have great games with innovative and fresh gameplay like mirror's edge, distance, portal, etc. They all look and run well.
When people praised CDPR to the ends of the earth, overlooking their mistakes like the visual downgrade for witcher 3 and justifying it with ''it looks great already'', these companies probably learned if they make good games, they can get away with BS.
My point is, fairly criticize even the best dev's. Otherwise what will they learn? Good games let them get away with BS?
All the « bs » you said was in Elden Ring wasn’t actually in Elden Ring, that’s the problem with people like you who assume something is BS only cause you don’t understand it.
There is absolutely no problem having a big boss who move fast, there is no universal rule that say a big boss shouldn’t be fast, and even then fire giant isn’t really that fact considering you have torrent.
What’s the problem with Astel teleporting out of view ? You can move your camera and the sound will tell you where he is.
Death rite bird isn’t tanky, you just need to use holy damage, he’s not particularly hard to hit either, you need to aim for the head and stay in front.
The camera is your biggest enemy if you rely on the lock-on, if you learn to use the camera without lock on to track fast enemies then it won’t be a problem.
Also practically every third person games with player controlled camera have camera problems.
Elden Ring is a third person games, I don’t see why you would need an FOV slider when the FOV is already fairly high.
Fromsoft games aren’t meant to be the most « skilled based games », they’re meant to be multiple things: challenging, have good RPG elements, have good build variety, have good storytelling, good level design, good bosses , and they succeed in this.
I think you heavily exaggerating Elden Ring issues, the game is far from perfect but it’s also far from being « bad » or « unfair ».
Baldur’s Gate is a good example of a game that release with some missing QOL features but is still loved by the community, if a game is great then people will care less about the issues it has.
Fromsoft is improving on these issues, the game they just released has 120fps, ultra wide support, HDR support, and run extremely good on the majority of PC, it’s so good that it doesn’t need any upscaling option.
Why would I want to complain if a company made a great game ? You can point out problems without acting like a brat and calling it « bullshit ».
@@ni9274 A lot of these problems regarding longer and longer combo's, spamming attacks, etc. have been grieved by many players. Including the camera's. Several 3rd person games include an FOV slider, ability to zoom out, etc. And oh wow, only after the 6th game on PC did fromsoft decide to bring an FOV slider and higher FPS caps. That itself adds artifical difficulty to the large bosses. Ever since I modded in an FOV slider and zoomed out the camera further these bosses became a lot more managable as I could finally see what they were doing.
I said the deathrite bird is lanky, has a bit smaller hit box and tends to move back quite a bit. Bit of a chore to smack him. I already beat him with a colossal sword with holy damage and stance breaking him.
So, if as you say fromsoft game's aren't meant to be the most skill based games, why is it always ''skill'' issue brought up when posing any criticism towards fromsoft? They are hard, but not really fair. Afterall, most challenging games have skill involved, thats where the challenge comes from. If not, then the challenge doesn't feel great.
Why give a company who makes a great game a pass for faults in their games?
You do sound like the folks who would defend everything fromsoft does.
Nou
I agreed with you until you talked about Tears of the Kingdom. That game is far from perfect, and should not be the shining example of the industry. It addresses none of the problems of the previous game and it sticks with the quantity over quality content distribution that BOTW had.
TOTK was not good imo. Any other game would not have gotten as much slack as Zelda always seems to. Tired of bare minimum game releases
Bro your acting like totk was a dlc.
@@ThisChannelIsAbandoned300 it looked and felt like a dlc so might as well be.
@@Spaced0ut000 It isn't. We have a brand-new underground region and an entire sky kingdom. A floating castle, several changes to villages and the main world. An entire Build system, more inspired dungeons. People who say its a DLC probably got bonked on the head.
@@ThisChannelIsAbandoned300 I’m glad you enjoyed it, but I got bored almost immediately. Just felt like the exactly same game, same concept, same everything with small new editions. Shrines, main bosses, locations, everything was basically the same but done slightly different. Shrines are so overdone, bosses are in the same exact areas as before and basically the same concept for every boss. Nothing felt new or different. They just rewrote the same BOTW story and changed a couple of things but left everything else the same.
Glad you like it, but just wasn’t for me
