    It’s almost like the executives don’t have our best interests at heart

    • @jesspeed
      @jesspeed 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +43

      You think it’s just the executives? In fact, I would argue they align with our interests MORE than the people making games, the actual devs. Not that it means much.
      The executives, all they care about is making money. They don’t care how they do it, they just want to satisfy investors. Ok fair enough. I don’t like their practices and won’t buy them but the biggest issues in the gaming industry is the cultural aspect of it that are being pushed forward by the lower guys, the devs. They are the MAIN ones ruining the gaming industry because they don’t care about money. They care more about the cultural push into DEI which is losing them plenty of money.
      Them losing millions on their games is then indirectly impacting their console development. Executives need to first go back to the old mentality. Hire the best people for the job. Once that’s done, those same people will create efficient environment that won’t drive the cost of the whole company. I’ve seen too many people blaming the executives and ignoring the people at the bottom like as if the executives were gone, all of a sudden, their games would have been better.

People who, back in the day, called us 'losers' cuz we were gamers or loved Anime. Now they use our tech to make sick money, share their vanity and destroy self-esteem of others.

    It's sad. Every new generation feels like the "fun" of videogames takes more of a backseat as they turn games into chores. It's why my gaming history the last few years are filled with the occasional next-gen game surrounded by a flood of older titles.

    • @gentlesirpancakebottoms6692
      @gentlesirpancakebottoms6692 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +30

      Same. I almost exclusively play retro or indie titles these days. I've purchased 3 big games since 2015. Witcher 3, Baldurs Gate 3 and Ghost of Tsushima for PC. Witcher 3 was on a massive sale. BG3 is more of an indie game but with a big budget. So Ghost is really the only AAA game on the list I've payed full price for.
      I spend more money on original PS2 games than modern videogames each year. I could easily pirate and emulate them. But money is not the issue. I like to own them in my collection. Meanwhile I don't even bother pirate modern AAA games.

    • @maikusoft
      @maikusoft 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +17

      On the bright side, it means I can worry less about needing to make a new computer build to run newer titles as majority are boring/slop/crap. I do find myself mostly going back and playing older games I grew up with and some I missed out on, or were translated because they were never released over here on the NES and upwards. NES, SNES, N64, GEN/32X/CD, Saturn, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, GB/C/A, DS/3DS, GameGear, PSP. I got so many games to choose from, even on original hardware for some since I still have a bunch of older systems and a CRT that still works. Using mostly S-Vid or higher when able, with only a couple on composite.
      I find all these older titles vastly just more enjoyable and fun nowadays compared to most new stuff by big companies. Mostly indie stuff has any interest to me for new things, and SOME-times something from a big company might get my attention like Wukong or Stellar Blade.

      True. I have a high end gaming PC but it feels kinda wasteful most of the time as I spend most of my time playing indie and retro games. Or retro consoles. Its great for emulation though I guess. And the very rare and once in a while AAA game like Ghost of Tsushima. But the positive is that I don't have to worry about upgrades for a decade if the gaming industry continues like it has for the last decade:P

In 2016 when they released the ps4 pro they dropped the price of ps4 slim to $300 with uncharted 4 bundled in, and put ps4 pro at the ps4 launch price. That’s when I upgraded from ps3 to ps4. However now it’s been 4 years and the base ps5 is still $500 with only a handful of games that aren’t cross gen while the price of living has skyrocketed and the generational leaps are diminishing returns for long term gamers who have seen things like the jump to 3d or jump to hd.

Along with borrowing the Ubisoft formula; releasing the same spiderman game three times with minimal innovation between instalments. But the fans LAP that shit up. Henceforth, Sony thinks they have the Apple touch: The ability, and audacity to make egregious pricing decisions with ultimately inconsequential backlash, due to the loyalty of the userbase. In conjunction with a borderline monopoly on the industry. They ain't there, but they clearly want to be. I'm just glad we aren't letting it slide.

    From audio transistor radios, reel to reel audio, Trinatron TVs, Walkmans, Discmans, and Playstations Sony always charged as much as the market could bear. The console debacle is just the latest. This generation doesn't have a killer game and introducing a Pro mid gen is only good until the Playstation 6 in early 2027 or 2028.
    It comes down to the game developers to code the games for fidelity and not make them ugly.

And people were somewhat annoyed. Yet that meant, if you didn't own the games before, now your only option was the collection. Despite the fact prior to release they were readily available online to purchas. Imagine a world where the next FIFA game comes out, and all precious versions are forcibly shut down, or delisted/removed, perhaps with some free "fake currency" bonus to previous owners for whatever micro transactions the game might have. Certainly would make it "easier" on the companies, when they don't even have to compete with their older versions, and thus make the minimum effort to "update" since they know you have no other option.

    Another issue: Consoles these days are, essentially, budget computers with a smattering of exclusive titles. Aside from the ability to more easily plug them into your TV, they are inferior to a PC in almost every conceivable way. They're obsolete. The ONLY reason to buy one is if That One Game You Really Want is never coming to Steam, ever. And if you're blowing $500-$700, plus controller(s), plus the price of the game, plus paying for internet access a second time, all just to play That One Game? Even 3-4 That One Games? Buddy, you got serious impulse control issues that you might want to seek help for.

      My sister bought an Xbox Series S a while back, and I warned her about the major cons of owning a console instead of a good laptop.
      So fast forward to today, and she wants to sell her Xbox and get a laptop.

      These days? Consoles have always been budget computers. Console gaming was introduced to make gaming more accessible to the average person. Exclusives were to incentivize people into buying consoles. Obsolete? No. Again, Consoles are cheaper than PCs and are convenient and easy to use. Not everyone is a CE or CS major. You don't expect Little Jimmy down the street or John the construction worker to know how to navigate a Linux operating system or pathing on windows to get the most out of PC gaming, or heck even start. Doubly goes for pirating and emulation.

      @@jase276 I was "little Jimmy down the street", I bought a Windows '98 PC with the cash from my part-time job and was playing StarCraft and Diablo within hours of getting it home from Best Buy. Consoles USED to be more convenient, but that is no longer the case. Go buy a brand-new PS5 and time how long it takes to hook it up, get it online, install all the updates, make/sign into your PSN account, get your game(s) installed and updated, and start actually playing anything. We're talking HOURS. It's no longer simple or convenient like it was back in the 8/16/32-bit eras.

      I've got the Switch Lite, and it's pretty good. Granted it's the Lite version, but I've had it for about 3 years now and it's going along nicely. I'm content enough with my purchase. I'm gonna save up for the second Switch, though. The last thing I want is for me to buy a proper Nintendo SWITCH just for the new generation to be announced a week later lol

    Went to my friends birthday party in September. He pulled out the N64 and we played the original Super Smash Bros, and Gauntlet Legends. It had been about 11 years since i had even held an N64 controller. It was like magic. No hub menus chalk full of ads, apps, and social media jargon. No. Just a console, a game, two controllers... You put the game in and you play. That feeling of knowing you're not online, not being data mined... It felt surreal after years and years of online gaming. That just doesn't exist anymore and it's really sad...

      Nintendo still has that feeling. You get a physical game, pop the cart in the switch and play. No installation, no day one patch. Well, for 1st party titles anyway. Some other publishers will save on cart size and sell you half of the game, or even just an empty box and won't let you play without internet connection.

      Lol PS2 and Xbox gen was the pinnacle. Those consoles were still cheap enough to develop for that we had the massive libraries of the precious gen while getting a technical leap we haven't seen before or since. The PS3 killed a lot of smaller studios in Japan that made innovative stuff, while the 360 was the first to charge for multiplayer. A lot of Unreal 360 games ran like crap while the PS3 had lame ports and very few exclusives compared to the PS2.
