I have had enough.

I see suspect individuals calling on a reviewer for being fired (and the outlier stupid people that are part of GTA 5's fanbase), and then harping on the reviewer's gender/orientation.  I see stuff like Call of Duty get hyped up, and torn down.  I see people who have too much time on their hands end up getting all excited over stuff that doesn't matter. I see other things like one reviewer talk how GTA 5 is going to be viewed as a landmark game over 200 years from now, comparing it to like the work of Dickens or something.   I am seeing people taking stuff way too seriously.  Throw in also the secret sauce nonsense, and grasping at straws and worrying how a game MUST run ay 60 FPS in 1080p.  I don't want to drop $400+ for a new system, heckeven $300.  I am fed up of no backwards compatibility.

I am fed up of online play and teens trolling with sexual orientation with those they have issues with.  I am just fed up.

None of what I am seeing makes me want to jump on next gen at all.  I am feel like sticking old school at least, so I don't have to see any of this.  In short, I am real close to being done with it all.  Just give me my retro games and boardgame stuff, and also maybe throw in some Indie stuff, and I will call it a day.

Maybe someone can show me otherwise, but I am done.  I think it is time for me to work at getting a life.  Tonight it is Civ the boardgame by Fantasy Flight.

Sorry, no GTA 5.  I don't care if it is great social commentary.  I just don't enjoy doing crimes in a fantasy world at all.
