We used to get plenty of garbage, too, it’s just not remembered. Nobody is thinking fondly of the Pixar’s Bolt DS game (or all the other licensed shitty games on the DS/Wii era that you could walk in and find everywhere). My local Dollar General AND Target still can’t sell them!
Games on the level of Deus Ex, Half Life, Thief, many old JRPGs, or old isometric RPGs like Fallout aren’t gonna be made again because they were lighting in a bottle, not because games were generally better.
The slop we get now has risen to the AAA-budget level but in 10 years nobody is going to look back on the story of Assassins Creed Shadows or whatever. Very good chance they remember Yakuza 7 or Red Dead Redemption 2 though.
Want story? Xenoblade is pretty great.
Want gameplay? Then play Sifu, one of the most engaging games ever.
If you can’t get into a genre, that’s expected of human taste. Everything is not for everyone, but these genres are very much the best in the industry when it comes to storytelling, and they still do it. Studios doing the immersive sims went under because people didn’t like them enough to sell, no matter how good they were. Same here, less popular, less known than the slop, but still the best without the same advantage of surviving the slop quite yet.
Like anime has replaced cartoons, manga replaced comics, independent development being able to outshine AAA development.

JRPGs, AA titles, mods, and non-ideologically-captured indies. Especially if her requirement is pre-2010, which is 15 years ago! There’s a lot that’s come out since then, a whole bounty out there if you open your tastes.The real issue is games that have good stories tend to be in the genre she hates cause she can't into JRPGs with the smol rabbit brain

Though ultimately the take “they’ve nosedived” is not as unreasonable as Pippa’s take, which is at heart “I will arbitrarily decide to not engage with your game and call it dogshit” and “XYZ game is dogshit because it has British voice acting or cutscenes >0.”
Anyone who truly thinks games have gotten worse are NOT thinking the same thing she is. She managed to crash out about a game where you dig holes because she wanted a physics simulator, not a game.

I was going to come back just to tell him to kill himself, but apparently it's someone else on this site who needs to kill himself.
And still him, of course

>"7/10, you can't collect the monsters"
Different games serve different audiences, who knew! (Modern game devs still fail to realize this)
Nintendo would somehow send legal papers for a Doom-based monster collector, probably!
Who needs red faction when you have mahjong soul with chinchilla?
30 minutes until Akagi with Vtubers
Reminding me Krampus exists should be punishable by death.
Doom is terrible because the trailer said it was a farm sim (the trailer did not say it's a farm sim).>"7/10, you can't collect the monsters"
Chinchilla said she's been practicing for this one I wonder if pippa has been
didn't chinchilla learn mahjong just for this opportunity and moment?

can't believe I'm being forced to watch jong, how could Pippa do this to me
I think she knows mahjong as part of the basic japanese skill set.
Damn, that's a much cooler racial starting ability than I got.
Edit: I forgot I now hate Mahjong Soul because I'll never be able to get the Fate stuff.
