We just need to go back to gamers making games instead of investors. All three of those games had me simultaneously in tears and smiling not because of the stories but just because I was in heaven and so relieved to know that games , modern games, could still capture the magic I once experienced on SNES. Proof that you CAN have state of the art graphics and a good game. These games all made me feel like a 6 year old on Christmas morning just from how obvious it was the devs put their heart and souls into the game the moment you put the disc in. Parts in the game you're supposed to be sad and crying I was HAPPY and crying because I was THRILLED the game was affecting me and making me sad like that. And the affirmation that my tastes have not changed in 20 years, but validation of the fact that yes, GAMES HAVE CHANGED FOR THE WORST, not me. Beats the fuck out of "K/D bro!" |
I am not saying we won´t have magical moments when we´re grown up (I have them myself atleast a few times per year), I am saying we most probably have less of them. And I don´t agree that games have changed for the worst. The percentage of crappy games have increased, yes, much in thanks to the indie scene and touchbased gaming. The number of actually great games are huge though, probably alot bigger than ever before. Thing is though, the amount of games produced each year today is so insanely higher than just 10 years ago.
