What could be causing this?
>>734150338same things that's causing 4chan to dieno one is here anymore
>>734150338>buying fewer gamesI buy fewer games because they are lesser games
Retard zoomers only play fortshit and robshit and have gamepass
>>734150472Not according to the 10th porn-bait thread I filtered today. Unless it the same person again and again
>posted it again award
>>734150338I'm not playing shit in generalThe market is offering nothing truly appealing
>>734150338>make thing worse and more expensive>people stop buying thingWHOA
>>734150580>Unless it the same person again and againIt literally is
>>734150338Companies don't want you buying things, they want you to pay endlessly for streaming services.
>>734150338everything's too expensive and nothing is worth the high prices
I haven't played games in a decade.
its because the market was massively inflated by covid and they thought that was sustainable
>>734150580>>734150737All of these posts (including this one) are me.
>>734150338Anyone else always thinking this looks like he's watching a live-feed of his wife cucking him?
>>734150737>only one person on 4chan is horny
us gamers. am i right?
The age of men is over
>base game is 80+30 seasons pass+ 4x20 dlc+ sub to play online on console+ lootbox>Old games don't disappear anymore,it's not like the 90s when the number of cartridges and CDs was limited. Now you can download thousands of games for free in minutes>AAA need 8-9 years to get a sequel>AAA are 15 hours long movie game walking simulator>must compete with streaming platforms like Netflix and social networks like Brainrot+, video game streaming, IRL etc... on Twitch to gain time and attention
>>734150338/v/'s answer:>games today are too woke! we must find a final solution to the woke game question.the real answer:>corporations are in the midst of transitioning from games being relatively cheap and available to all potential players to a model where only the extremely wealthy will be able to afford the gaming rigs required to play the games that are designed with an affluent audience in mindThey're moving from a wide base such that anyone can afford a game, counting scale to lead to high overall profits to an ivory tower model that few can afford but those that can afford it pay astronomical amounts of money to do so. Essentially, instead of a business model trying to sell 100 people a $1 game, gaming companies will try to sell a $100 game to one person instead. Save your old systems my friends, RAM prices are merely the warning bell of what is to come.
Traditional games all over are dying out and being replaced by freemium games.
>>734151292explains why everything is shit now
>>734150338All of the best games have already been made
>>734151379So we're going to relive the glory days of 90s PC gaming. Nice.
>Society pushes against and removes whimsy or joy from the world>Wtf why does no one participate in the joy and whimsy devices anymore????
>>734150338I dunno, bots?
>>734151379doubt it.
People keep saying it's because games are shit now, but it's actually the opposite. The most shit games, GaaS/Gachas/etc. are what make up a majority of spending now. People don't buy new games, because they'd rather buy fortnite bucks or whatever.
>>734150338For the past months I have been mostly playing Genshin Impact, God of War Ragnarok (PS plus) and Armored Core 6 (boughted it last year).
>>734150338games bad
>>734151624Wanna see something more grim? It's a twitter repost.https://x.com/RinoTheBouncer/status/2028122636237070727
>>734151379Thats retarded, the rich people are buying endless mtx in Fortnite.
>>734150338>have access to 30 years of video games at home>the old ones are better than anything they've been making>still they want me to buy more
>>734152014All of /v/ is a Twitter repost.
>>734152025and guess what, those are the only people that devs are interested in catering to anymore.
>>734150737It really is and it upsets bots when you call it out. This is why poster count was removed. The sharty hack made it blatant with hard evidence and 'people' will still deny it like they do Epstein
>>734150338Gee, I dunno. No way TO know, really. Could be ANYTHING.
>>734151875Fortnite is better than most modern games since the skins are based directly on what people ask for in survey. Fortnite is still shit with awful support, but it is better than most modern games and will last longer than a year
>>734152059They also think they're with 70 no 80 dollars now lmao.
>>734150338I actually think social media is the main cause of this. You can get dopamine hits why faster and more consistently on social media than you can from a videogame and it takes less brainpower too.
>>734150338Funny how they switched to $70 games and people stopped buying games
>>734150338No videogame is worth $80+tip. It's really that simple. The videogame market is absolutely FLOODED with $5-20 games, and THOUSANDS of FREE retro games that are all BETTER than the new $80 ones. Why would ANYONE buy new games? Just play the old ones for a year and the $80 ones will be $40 or less, which is what they are actually worth.
>>734151292>Make games be about baby killing troon advocacy for eggless hags>Where did every other demographic go???
>>734150338Most new games are shit, especially AAA.
>>734151473>All of the best games have already been madeNo, I still believe Dragons Crown will get a sequel and Dragons Dogma 2 will turn things around with a Bitterblack 2.0 DLC2 more weeks.Plan status: Trusted and Verified.
>>734150338it s a fake study that counts females on match 3 mobile as us gamers
>>734150338>What could be causing this?RAM prices affecting consoles and PC.Game prices increase to $70-80
>>734152926This. Also the games release in more and more bugged up state with unfinished content so there's no reason to wait for the definitive edition that will have a 50€ pricetag in a year after release.
>>734150338zoomers aren't buying games they're only playing Fortnite, Roblox and Genshin. They're actually spending more money but on MTX and not actual game purchases.
>>734150810seriously, why aren't we discussing this, instead the thread has a bunch of dumb ass gay comments instead.
>>734150338Being brown
>>734151292>can us menif this crybaby faggot quit playing normieslop he wouldn't have this issue
>>734151473I'd argue 99% of the best stuff has already been made for video games, movies, music, novels, etc. There's only so much you can do with those mediums.
>>734151292>skim through this article>they were including grandmas playing candy cush saga as gamers
