Iv been watching this canadian incel play rust, i dont even play games anymore

It's not dead, just everyones burned out or been turned off by companies focusing on lootboxes and "esports" more than making actual good products (actually good and fun games).

The good games of today are not exposed to you by massive ad campaigns, meaning they exist, but they are not in your face. Same applied to good music: you are not looking in the correct places, and get blind by mass media. In other words: you are an ignorant that complains and want spoon feeding.

name some games and no indy twee qt undertale ebinns faggotry
im talking about decent multiplater games that will stand the test of time or at least have a 3-5year peak like the games i mentioned
Jace Nelson
a lot of modern games are completely fucking faggy and don't have that pure edge of Quake 3, agreed
BUT
I've tried VR and that's pretty fucking awesome, the future of vidya is there
It isn't lootboxes. Everyone is just burned out by everything in general. Life is just working long thankless hours in a wage cage making what everyone tells you is a great salary, you cant afford half the home your parents own and cant make retirement contributions because of crushing student debt. Who even has the mental capacity to want to actively play a video game after that? The most you can hope for is to sit in front of mindless capeshit for a few hours and be hypnotized by flashing images long enough to forget that you are going to have to wake up and repeat this all tomorrow.
Levi Thomas
Squad is pretty good multiplayer.
Jayden White
video gaming is much more competitive now. if you actually think that any of those clowns in pic related were better than modern day pro gamers you need a reality check
Bentley Morales
No more great games, we get the mass produced watered down death matches now,
Chase Martin
bro there's still plenty of people who work to game as long as they can play video games when they get back from work nothing else matters
Hunter Carter
The video games scene needs to be purged of faggots, snowflakes, social justice warriors and furries. Only that would be a long-expected revival.

Have you considered that there are actually plenty of good games but they're brushed off as being for zoomers? Not talking about fortnite, but borderlands 2 was pretty fun, has massive amounts of content and no micro transactions, BL3 is coming out in Sept and I personally am excited for it. Sure there are a lot of cucks in development and a lot of the humor is cringy but all in all it's a pretty good franchise the pre-sequel excluded.
There's also smaller titles that are insanely good with quality development such as Deep Rock Galactic, Enter the Gungeon, Subnautica, Stardew Valley, Terraria, Rust, Dusk, AntiChamer, Factorio, etc. There are plenty of good games out on the market, they just don't really get a lot of attention because of media manipulation shilling only AAA titles or continuations of large franchises.
Idk man, I'm a big fan of Cities: Skylines and its fanbase doesn't seem to be rife with the faggotry you get with cesspools like CS:GO or (God forbid) Overwatch. Then again, it's a different type of game entirely, but different strokes for different folks, you know?
Cameron Powell
Counter Strike still superior Esport game imo. Not as good as 1.6 but still really good.

Plenty of good games still released like overwatcg and apex etc. Wow was probably an outlier. Never played another game as much as I played wow(since beta 2004? till last year). Blizzard unfortunately seems to be going downhill and overwatch will likely be the last decent game they released.
Part of the way you feel is probably you just getting older / bored of gaming in general
So were just gonna pretend like nintendo doesn't exist?
Nathaniel Hernandez
fuck off basedboy
Benjamin Hughes
To be fair nintendo games are pretty boring these days, and Nintendo games are almost exclusively what I played when I was a kid outside of Runescape and a few PS1 games.
Gamers back then were zit faced nerds staying up until 5am pounding down mountain dew. Now they're all faggot kids with gay haircuts begging you to follow them on twitch.

>Apex >good game That shit died after 2 months like every other battle royale game.
Charles Perry
Anf thats a reason to get into making games. There is an oversaturation of shit products and not enough good games.
Joseph Diaz
fucking THIS. i love quake 2 but quake 3 didn't have shit on UT or UT2k3/4. fags love quake 3 cause it runs on toasters and UT2k3/4 took some heavier hardware to run.
I remember buying a 2.4 ghz pentium 4, 512 MB DDR, and a Ti 4200 128 MB card for it. you could run quake 3 on a pentium 2 with a geforce 2 mx.
Aaron Baker
You're just a boomer
in twenty years time people will be saying there are no games like fortnite and minecraft anymore
Lincoln Cooper
Don't want to share your deep love of the new battlefield 7; tranny warfare huh? Can't say I blame you. Maybe he plays the games all the epic gamers play like LoL or dota 2 guess we'll never know
Cameron Ross
I quitted my gaming addiction these year. It's simply no fun anymore. And the shit gets really expensive.
Lincoln Powell
Have you heard of a game called dota 2? It has longevity based on grinding of skill rather than grinding of xp. Or you can be an oblivious shitter and enjoy the fact you can just blame your team if you lose.
Jack Sanchez
Fuck valve ever since the transitioned to just getting kids addicted to gambling, I want hl3 you twats

Runescape was unironically the perfect game pre-2007 >first of all extremely addictive >skills you choose which to level up >new items unlocked at new levels >thriving and lucrative pvp >player driven economy based on free trade >social aspect, add friends to friends list >Staking (bet people you can kills them first) in the dueling arena >Quests >clan fights in wilderness >scamming abounded (life lessons) Good times, good times.

Gaming is worth more than film, TV, theatre, music, books, and comics combined.

Zachary Lewis
one reason gaming is dead is simply democraphics, both europe and usa there are no white kids anymore, birth rates are very low all large gaming generations are 25-35 year olds now
Wish I would have played more RS back in the day, I liked it though even up until EOC. EOC was the final nail in the coffin, I still have no idea how any company can be do stupid and disconnected with their own playerbase. They even continue their alienation of players up until about a year ago with that gay pride OSRS event
Michael Morales
look im all for gassing the kikes too but I doubt that's the reason for the gaming decline. Pretty much every kid these days doesn't want to touch anything that isn't """cool""" or memed the shit out of. Look at Fortnite, CoD, Apex Legends, CS;GO etc. Zoomers want to play what's cool, not what's fun.
So the rest of the gaming industry suffers because they're the easiest demographic to milk money from. When we were kids it really was as simple as "make good game, kids buy it" but these days they've figured out that there is more money getting children addicted to gambling using virtual currency meanwhile the stupid fucking boomers in office are too incompetent and out of touch to enact any actual laws against this, it's sickening.
Games have improved massively through ethnographic refinement, such as getting a fairly standardized control scheme. Hardware is now incredible, and we have the opportunity to make enormous and engaging experiences.
Sadly, the ethics behind making games has also changed. There's a pervasive ideology of 'ship now finish later *if we can get the funding*' enabled entirely through the internet. Everyone and their nan is a trend chasing dumbass that flushes money away by purposefully saturing the market with arrogant "but we can do it better" mindsets. And honestly, we're so connected now, that this board is case and point - we've all been made bitter because we've collectivized the things *we don't like*.
Gaming is a different culture now. It is what it is.
Jace Allen
fucking love that map. low grav with rocket arena ftw
Modern games are DOA but you've probably not even played 10% of what came out during the golden age of gaming (1983 - 2010) and is worth playing. There are plenty of good games, in fact so many that you could spend an entire lifetime if you truly wanted to. So, what's stopping you from downloading DOSBox or buying older consoles/Win98 PC?
Asher Johnson
UT was always the game we played after get drunk and high on lans. It is a fun and lowskill game to play TDM. Otherwise Q3V and CPMA are superior in every way.
Jose Walker

Camden Perez
basically, the industry is almost entirely soulless atm with the last notable release in years being Sekiro which made actual improvements on the repetitive action game model used for the past 20 years. Other than that there might be the odd different game that might keep you occupied for a dozen hours before another year or two of creative drought. It's really fucked atm, the money seeking has pushed out almost all chance of better systems being developed.

Gaming as an industry is actually growing. It's just that it's being fucking co-opted by fucking normies and memers.
