games take sooo long to come out nowadays but still get announced years ahead of time and still come out with bugs and so many patches/dlc

consoles already cost so much then you gotta pay a bundle for the games and the online services when most of the online used to be free

ps5 is still hard to find and sonys raising the price everywhere outside of america

nintendo went from desperate to sell wii us and 3ds’ to getting greedy as s***

it’s no surprise s*** like Fortnite runs the industry nowadays

life sxn

I never understood how gamers are right wingers and don't understand how capitalism, especially the big corporations, ruined gaming, all the while complaining about DLCs, lootboxes and all the other crap all day

And some of them even complain and still buy lmao

It became soulless.

not sure. i def have stopped playing much, but honestly id blame that all on battle royale wayyyyyy more than what you are talking about, but i guess DLC and BR go hand in hand. personally playing the same game mode for 6 or so years now has bored tf outta me.

Everything is just getting over saturated these days, movies, music, etc

SteamDeck available for reservations now!

Nah nigga we still on Xbox

not dead just in a drought atm. 2023 will be a good year for gaming though lots of big games will start droppin

im so glad i never fell into this mindset

with game pass, all the countless new indie games, or replaying older games with better hardware, theres always something at least somewhat new to try

There is much s*** out there that tbh gaming will never die. You can always download an emulator and go thru lots of gems

This what i do, play older games the majority of the time, and sometimes sum new like Monster Hunter

I just don't have time anymore. I grind out hours on specific games to get good at them but I can't put in 10+ hours on dozens of games.

Just played through Midnight Fight Express on gamepass and had a good ass time

If y’all only out here playing nothing but triple AAA titles then no wonder you think gaming dead

It feels kinda dead yeah

Might be the age tho. When I was in high school everyone was gaming and going to midnight releases for example, for the new CoD. Kinda miss those times. Maybe the high school kids still play like us back in the day.

I wouldn't say it's dead. But all of the constant pushback and botched releases definitely really hurt the momentum of gaming

But there is still PLENTY of games to look forward to

Callisto Protocol
Hogwats Legacy
GOW Ragnarok
Starfield
BOTW 2
Final Fantasy XVI
Alan Wake 2
Wolf Among Us 2

2023 will be really great. And owning a Series X and PS5 will start to pay off

sounds like your bank accoount might be dead

been off games for awhile now

we old

Elden Ring out now

Breath of the Wild 2 coming soon

Just gotta know where to look

But woman in video game is communism

i’m holding out for Spider-Man 2 and BOTW2 personally

Gaming is still alive and well but CAPITALISM is kinda f***ing it up

Because adding any video game character that isn’t a fictional alien or some CIS white male is automatically angering and breaks reality of whatever very realistic game they are playing

Most of the fun stuff is indie developers doing it for the love of the artform these days

it just shows how easily people are duped and fooled

dont think of yourself as better tho, odds are you're doing/believing something pretty stupid too

just like all of us
