I mean I wasn't around for it but the late 70s and early 80s sounded really shitty

Yes gaming is worse than the Atari days because a handful of games out of several million have anti-consumer practices

Gaming nearly died in the '80s because of the sheer amount of shovelware dragging it down.

Even if you consider AAA games to be the worst they've been, there are still more quality indie games today that beat the shit out of the best the 70s and early 80s had to offer.

You're just going to have to be more selective and wary. Now that big corporations have seen the money in video games, you have companies with the ability to make a piece of shit look like filet mignon. The days of major devs fighting for your dollar by releasing quality content are gone.

My sentiments. Although I may just be getting older and disinterested in the hobby in general, I haven't seen anything ground-breaking.

we are in an era now where everything is good enough but pretty much nothing is great. there was a lot of real trash in the older eras that you wont really see today but by that same token there arent a lot of classics or anything like that now imo

Steam is kind of perpetuating this right now. 100+ games released per week, and 6 of them have "Hentai" in the title. Every week.

Like I mean heads don't explode anymore like when they first saw Mario 64, Ocarina of Time, the opening scene in Final Fantasy VII.

Its not the worst simply because we have access to all the previous generations too. I do wish there were more mid-tier developers out there though and I wish every AAA game didnt feel like it was designed to appeal to non-gamer focus groups
