There is a lot to love about gaming today with some quality titles and play styles.
There are some aspects of gaming that seem pretty dire: Console and controller prices, SSD prices, CPU and GPU prices, AI Generation, microtransactions, and so on. Not to mention major studios are often only putting out 1 game every 5 or so years. Some it takes 7 or more years. And even the studios that can put games out quicker than that still have a huge release gap for certain IPs.
And not to mention retro games, consoles and such are becoming more expensive as time goes on. I know it isn't the same across the board, but some Nintendo hardware has gotten expensive, and tons of games across different platforms are very expensive.
