All I have been seeing all over TH-cam, is that the gaming industry is either dead or heading towards ruin. I clicked on this, to see your perspective.
This is so much nicer to see than “quit gaming” or “why the industry is terrible” it’s like man I know all that shit talk about GAMES for gods sake, I feel like that’s where gaming channels worth their salt shine, when it’s a positive spin on things, I’m glad it’s kindof spreading, the sentiment that like hey man just make the best of things it’s not that serious, it’s not that bad. AVGN really cursed the gaming sphere on TH-cam lolol.
Finally being hyped about gaming instead of saying “theres no good games anymore” when these same people r complaining about triple A games when $10 masterpiece indie games exist
Avowed is first and third person, but personally I enjoy being able to see the character, but when navigating interiors first person is always nice to have.
Games *LOOK* amazing because that’s how the marketing department wants the potential customers to feel. I worked in the industry for 5+ years, and how the sausage is made would make your stomach turn. Please support smaller studios instead of AAA. Customers and developers will be much happier that way.
Or you can sing praises from time to time. If you look through my videos, you'll see I've been calling this out for a while now and made a possitive video about it.
First, cause text is hard to convey tone through, I'm not trying to fight or anything. I care deeply about this industry and agree that praises should be sung! I just noticed a pattern that troubles me slightly. I'll admit that I'm not a returning fan, and this is my first exposure to your channel so I have a limited view of your perspective. Taking a brief look, it seems AAA is your focus and singing praises about it/debunking "games being dead" is a recent thread you've been chasing which I find noble! Games won't ever "die", they'll just change. From my experience, AAA has turned how they look at creating games into a money & engagement mill. Games used to be distributed by developers through shareware, and IMO that was a time when games where allowed to be a full creativity-driven medium. I feel that AAA is after your money, and they'll uses every dirty trick in the book to get it (not speculation, fact. Look into how they use psych studies to farm engagement and destroy your mental health/desire to go elsewhere). Please please please "vote" with your wallets and your time. If you don't like what a company does, don't play their games full-stop. I'd be curious to see you make a video on Indie studios that are doing what you think AAA Studios should do!
@@Exiled7 I don't play too many multiplayer games, don't have a TikTok or TH-cam shorts attention span. All digital is dope as fuck for me. I love the convenience of digital media. I'm not gonna rewatch the video but I do recall a big argument was the comparison between the ps5 and xbox series s.
8:06 No good multi-player games? I know Helldivers 2 has it's many issues, but it was still a great game. Damn! You just gonna forget your citizenship?!?!?
I’m very very hopeful. The Xbox showcase was spectacular, we’re finally at a point where we can SEE how close tes6. Starfield kinda flopped, but it has some huge updates and a dlc coming every year. The elden ring dlc just came out and it’s amazing… Avowed, fable, gta6, Indiana jones, I’m very hopeful for this year…
Yeah in the future once the industry heals. These games you mentioned will flop and be poorly managed. That failure should restructure the industry though.
*i believe Free 2 Play games are the obvious future. an F2P game is basically a supported demo with micro transactions....and its fair because if your game is Good, people will invest money into it.....but if its not, the developers will take the loss for putting out a mediocre game nobody wants to support 🌈🙌 this is what gaming should have been from day 1* 👌
Yeah man thats right some great games are indeed on the works and it is nice to see some optimism and positivity for a change. In my knowledge good games are coming from both indie and AAA developers, what I am most excited for are Path of Exile 2, 1.0 for Hades 2, Titan Quest 2, Doom Dark Ages and Dragon Age 4.
I am currently playing catch up on Nintendo switch exclusive titles I just didn't play. Sonic x shadow generations in October, new zelda in September, I get to experience lollipop chainsaw for the first time in September, new mario and luigi in November. 2025, my most anticipated games: Doom The Dark Ages and Metroid Prime 4 will be releasing. So yes, personally speaking, I think the next 2 years are going to be a good time for games.
Great video The new fable cutscense look amazing. I laughed at Not playing Kingdom Come Deliverance because of your mousepad? 😂 I couldnt get into becuase its slow, difficult and not what I'm looking for in a game when I have the time to play. I have to be in the right mood/ frame of mind to get into it. Great game still.
I'm currently enjoying BO6, but I'm going to wait until season 1 to play again so I can get some double xp tokens to level up faster. I'm playing survival horror games to get ready for Resident Evil 9. I personally can't wait for GTA 6 and might stream it on Twitch. Also I know it's controversial, but I'm also looking forward to trying out Assassin's Creed Shadows.
2024 really is new renaissance, since 2010ish there been only 1 decent game wz2020 but we got helldivers and now that space marines 2 looks great, dune looks interesting even cod with bo6 feature upgrade and starcitizen almost cooked
You are complaining about a 1 mbyte/s internet? 0_o I used to have 8kbyte/s (the 64 kbit/s dial-up modem) in the 90s for at least 10 years. We were downloading a website for 1 minute or more. When we were downloading PICTURES, it was loading as lines from bottom up... One effin picture!
yeah, it's always the case that someone who is pessimistic about life is always right in the end however at what cost? Do you want to be right and therefore never look forward or enjoy something? Sounds like such a nice life to live. The world became destroyed the moment pessimism was viewed as being realistic and being optimistic as delusional. It's always easier to die on the hill of pessimism.
@@Exiled7 has nothing to do with pessimism more with objective reality. ideologues have been subverting anything popular to make trojan horses. label me however you want, fact is anything popular will be used to domesticate people as needed for the system.

its not really. The only people I see complaining about it is people saying "this game looks bad" in comment sections. The games not out yet, the multiplayer is decent from what's been playable, even if it's chaotic but the things we need to see with BO6 is the campaign and Zombies.
@@Exiled7 yeah it’s the zombies that disappointed me. I refunded the game but I hope you enjoy it and it brings you good memories I really do, I just don’t think it will be for me and plenty of others that genuinely enjoy call of duty for what it was and not what it is now. Also to be fair it says beta but it’s also literally a demo so it’s pretty much what you are gonna get but probably worse on the full release. The mp is alright and the combat is good but the spawns are horrendous, kill streaks are bad, zombies is horrible, pretty much warzone but zombies which is not what I grew up with, they promised us a lot of stuff and lied to us showing us what we wanted to see, the hit points are off point and some guns do damage it shouldn’t do, which I mean… some guns do more damage and have weird damage output then other guns that should be doing more.

Spider-Man games are good, they’re nowhere close to systems found in games like Web of Shadows but that doesn’t mean they’re bad. Wrestling has been the same shit every year, same as FIFA, same as 2K. Most of your enjoyment comes from the fact that it was a new experience when you were younger, the older you get the more you realize it’s mostly the same shit. Add to the fact that developing games with today’s graphical fidelity takes a lot longer than how it used to back in the PS2 days, 1 year and 20 devs isn’t enough anymore. COD has been yearly for 2 decades now, and the quality has varied but they do come out with bangers every now and then. There’s just more media press to shove in your face these days that tell you how shit things are and it gets stuck in your mind rather going about your day. And back then, you might’ve not even played every single release. Ubisoft. Yeah you’re never getting early 2000s era Ubisoft back. CDPR mishandled Cyberpunk 100%, I saw how they might fuck it up from a mile away because the game was literally a different genre than what they’ve made in the past, but everyone got caught up in the hype. The game’s combat, mechanics, world design, and interactivity was a complete 180 from the preset combat animations, basic magic, open fields, and barely interactable NPCs that they’ve been making and refining since Witcher 1. Skate 4 is coming. There’s a new skateboarding game made by the OG THPS devs from Neversoft called “Wrekless” Need for Speed had a release a couple years ago, it was good, did you buy it?

With all the "gaming is dead" videos circulating on TH-cam, it's refreshing to finally watch a video like this.
that's exactly why i clicked.the industry needs more positivity.
Gamers typically seem to be the most negative group of people so this is refreshing
Felt this too
