Who are you to say that story driven games with long cut scenes are worst than any other games? 6m people bought and played Metal Gear Solid 4, which features A LOT of loooong cut scenes. Uncharted 1-3 have all sold more 4m each and have loads of cut scenes. I admit, these aren't my cup of tea - give me Super Mario (platformer) any day! But, they are trying new things. They are trying to find a way for games to tell compelling stories. The best example of a story driven game, imo, is The Walking Dead. Nearly made me cry when I played that last episode in Season 1. Nintendo have NEVER come close to make me cry. Choices are GREAT. If you wanna play a game where 90% of the game is cut scenes, then why not? Why is that such a bad thing? It's not like you CAN'T play Mario or Zelda just because these kind of games exist.
I'm with you 100% that games shouldn't be riddled with so many bugs as they are today. They shouldn't need 10gb of patches to be playable. But what incentive does publishers have to stop all of this when people pre-order games? The publishers KNOWS they're gonna sell a shit ton of games. We vote with our vaulets. I NEVER buy buggy games, or if I do it's years later at a discount price with all the bugs fixed.
And I don't see the problem with online multiplayer. If people wanna compete with each other across the globe, then why not? I prefer local co-op myslef, I NEVER play online against other players. The only time I've done so is Mario Kart Wii, and even then I payed together with some one in the same room. And Hearthstone and LoL. Those I play as well.... But having online co-op doesn't mean YOU can't enjoy your local co-op. Vote with your vaulet.
So the 5th and 6th gen wasn't as good? Super Mario 64, Zelda OoT, FF VII, Halo, Gran Turismo wasn't any good then?
Options are GOOD. Have lots of options are GOOD. All YOU have to do is play the games YOU like and let others choose what they wanna play for themselves.

Who is anyone to say? It's called an opinion.
Local multiplayer has decreased these past two gens compared to prior ones. That's the problem; new inferior types of games are displacing the good ones.
And yes, the 5th and 6th gens were worse than the 4th. In fact, I'll go one step further and say that the 6th gen was rather sucky overall.

If local multiplayer has decreased it's because not as many people want that any more. I agree, it's kind of a shame; I find it a lot more fun to play in the same room together, laughing and having fun, than to swear at each other in a mic.
All you have to do is simply buy and play the types of games you wanna play. I can't imagine that there's no games out there you don't enjoy.
I'll agree that the 6th gen was quite boring, which is why I didn't play consoles at all then. It was the Wii that brought me back ^^
