So, gaming became more accessible thanks to phones, consoles and PC, videogames just like movies are mainstream now, it's not longer a niche nerdy hobby, it's now well accepted by normies, the problem is that the industry is facing other kind of problems like censorship, virtual casinos with gambling mechanics/lootboxes, huge and severe drop in quality (mainly from western videogame devs) and an extreme casualization of games (thanks to women and Nintendo fans), people getting fired from their jobs because others got offended by some stupid thing.
I happen to play more older games than modern ones, I still think we get some great vidya but now it's becoming more rare, game devs want their games to be like movies and not games anymore, they want you to keep spending money instead of you having fun.
Games are not a passionate project anymore but just a bland product nowadays.
Can someone please explain to me why Monster Beverage Corporation is allowed to do unpaid marketing on here.

Who's this maxmoefoe looking thot?
Julian Moore
Are you assuming that all games are AAA games?
Brody King
They gave hiroshima a crate of monster extract.
Ian Peterson
Exactly. The problem isn't the casuals and normies who started seeing vidya and considered maybe it could be fun after all. The problem is AAA devs and other non-vidya corporations seeing all the normies as walking cash stacks with which they can abandon all their remaining morals to try and exploit.
Cooper Campbell
Blame sipfags.
Sebastian Foster
Be smart and see which games are good and which games are bad, there are still some games that are great, and this is how it will be so for a while
Carson Wilson
Original monster is disgusting.
Justin Peterson
>3d woman tries to do the anime thingy
Kevin Moore
It is a niche hobby when you play games with any form of complexity, people back away instantly when presenting something like dominions or a actual good open world games like dorf fort, cdda or caves of qud
yeah this pretty much sums it up. video games used to be quality art and now they are just more marketing trash to sell to people who have no idea about games.

I like all the ones from ultra series and the lewis hamilton one. We don't get that many from Monster over here, but they're by far the best energy drinks on the market.
Why have a mediocre beverage, when you could have a Red Bull? I guarantee you'll love the revitalizing taste of this amazing product. Go buy one now at your nearest Red Bull retailer.
Gaming didn't change at all, these people playing gachas and browser games aren't "gamers", they're tourists. Rude tourists who act like they own the place while gatekeepers try and keep people who actually care about the hobby from speaking out and ruining their cash cows.

how new are you? The fucking joke is that only white trash retards drink monster
Are you actually person in pics? I saw the same exact thing in another thread What drives a person to do such a thing, ruse or not? I just couldn't fathom trying to exploit obvious insecurities, unless the audience in question was being unrighteous and wholly deserving of such a cheap shot There's no skill involved, I couldn't feel satisfied with this base and unimaginative brand of trolling And no, I don't prefer bleached edits because they are petty and debase the original work, but yes I will watch Maserati because she's hueg, a good shade of dark and fucks white dudes If someone lives in my head, they pay rent
No, friend, I think you are mistaken What you meant to type is "bbw", but I'm sure your hand just slipped Typically, if someone makes a mechanical error in their typing, it's usually a key or two away However, C and W are a whole three keys away so I can only assume you have bigger hands, no problem we're all born at different, healthy sizes For the best browsing experience on our wonderful, advertiser and user-friendly website of 4channel.org, I recommend cleaning both your keyboard and your larger than normal hands of pollutants such as flavored, corn-based chip snacks and grease from fried meats, the latter being a great contributor to a faux pas such as this Don't be like the cute dog in the picture related and then go to the keyboard, wash up first! I hope this helped, anonymous user Remember to stay on topic and be courteous, but most importantly have fun with your free time
Blame digital distribution. If you pay for digital distribution then you have no right to complain. Games being sold physical only has proven itself to be the best environment for great games to be made. You should want games to be sold physical only even if you exclusively pirate because you'll still be able to pirate but the games will be better. Paid digital distribution has created the environment for disgusting business tactics such as early access aka paying to test a game when devs used to have to pay people to test their game, having to go through some console wannabe client to legally play games on PC DLC, micro transactions, intentionally releasing unfinished/buggy games to the point of being unplayable since they can just be easily patched later which only further encourages games to be released that way, doesn't leave a sour taste in your mouth for paying for a game that is unfinished/buggy to the point of being unplayable since it is so easy to update, games as a service which digital distribution is, not being able to sell it, being expected to pay for less than air, making games even more popular from easy access to people who otherwise wouldn't play or play as much thus making them a huge market which makes companies make games focused on them instead of actual gamers, lowered the barrier for entry, making games more expensive than ever, etc. It is also Marxist - see Karl Marx' labor theory of value. The more popular paid digital distribution has got, the worse things get. It is being pushed so hard for a reason. On PC it used to be $50 max for an actual physical copy that was better than today's collector's editions, now they want you to pay for a download. Low cost =/= cheap or a good deal. Using the logic that digital sales are "cheaper" means that a restaurant charging $5 for a sip of water is cheap because it is only $5 without taking into consideration what you get in return.
