Sent you a PM.

FIFA14 released on PS2, PS3, and PS4, I expect we could well see FC hit PS4/5/6 in the same way, as well as a few indies.

Thank you.

Why would I try to be dishonest in a conversation like this, what would that accomplish? I gave you an insight into my personal experience and it is as valid as anyone else's.

Sure, gaming is always going to evolve into something more advanced, but when I was gaming in the eighties and nineties, I always felt it could be so much better. It's not just about graphics either, it's about depth and what games could do overall.

I guess it's also about the types of games you happen to like. For me, simple platformers and such just won't do, and growing up in the ancient times it took a long time for gaming to evolve beyond that. If simplicity is fun for you, the eighties and nineties were already fine for you and there's nothing wrong with that either.

For me, some kind of breaking point came when the PS4 generation came(I forget the gen numbers). I felt like this feels advaced enough for me in terms of graphics, storytelling, complexity and everything. I would be fine if this was the best it ever got, I thought. Everything from that point on is just more gravy.

Don't get me wrong, I won't be complaining about all the possibilities AI and whatnot will give us in the future, if they are implemented correctly. Things like NPCs you could have real time conversations with instead of fixed dialogue trees, now that would be something.

No big deal. The PS4 is at the same timeline as the PS1, like it's 2003 in slow motion, the PS2 in 2010/2011, and the PS3 in 2016. The platform still receives a handful of games because this small portion isn't satisfied with the ninth-generation consoles' results, with its abundance of exceptional games that would be remembered for a long time. There are a ton of mediocre, indie games that don't stand out, hence the persistence of the eighth generation in the hobby. Furthermore, the rising prices of components needed to upgrade computers or consoles only exacerbate this, along with the overall technological stagnation.

Got your dates quite wrong there, it would match PS1 in 2007, PS2 in 2013 and PS3 in 2019.

PS4 released in 2013, 13 years ago.

Yeah. It is a big deal and why downplay that achievement? It's on the verge of breaking the record for the longest supported platform (by big publishers intending to sell hundreds of thousands of copies, not small homebrew titles like Dreamcast gets). 

Annual Call of Duty , Ea Sports Fifa and NBA 2K still releases. Not big surprise if some more games release for a console with 117 million users.

I haven't retired my PS4. I have 5 more games to play and then i will retire it.

In your original comment, you stated every game up until this generation was "shitty". No rational person, thinking rationally, would ever believe such a thing. That's why I said you either had to be lying about your age (because a ten year old could plausibly believe it) or lying to yourself.

Let him be. He talks about games have more depth nowadays  and more complex stories even thou most games are copy/paste and are empty and boring as hell.

Maybe he just didnt play the right games back in the day.

Yeah I'm gonna have to strongly disagree with the notion that previous generations were "shitty".

You'll never convince me that games like Super Mario World, RE4, Metroid Prime, Donkey Kong Country, Banjo Kazooie, Halo, Doom, and countless others are shitty games just cos graphics technology has advanced since they were made.

Hell, even the PS4 itself is now way out of date, but that doesn't mean Uncharted 4 or RE7 or Monster Hunter World aren't great games.
