Are we in the dark age of gaming?
>>735129830The dark age was the beginning when people played with stickmen on ataris
>>735129830Grim
I bought a $2000+ PC and most of my time spent with it has been edging my cock to porn for hours.I think gaming might be dead.
darkest and soon, most experimental
>>735129950What's dead is your dopamine receptors.New PC, been playing Nioh 3, almost done, next in q is Stories 3, and Pragmata is will probably already be out in time after I finish S3, and then off to the backlog.
Worse yet, we're in the Dark Enlightenment of gaming. And yes, it's all jews.
>>735129886This is completely irreversible too, once game devs learned how easy they can milk people and rake in literal millions with actual mobile games they will never unlearn that knowledge.
>>735129830No. Dark ages finish.We are in the heat death of gaming.
its been dark niggaand we going even darker buckle up
>>735130842easily make a core game single player and just sell cosmetics only where the winds meet is already ahead of the curve and I'm expecting others to try it too.
>>735130895what he saidthis AIshit is going to make things a lot worse for most games.
>>735129830Doom 3 was 22 years ago. I think it's safe to say game devs discovered fire by this point.
>>735129886while I wasn't a whale or anything I feel sick thinking that I used to contribute to this. didn't think the effect would be this severe to gaming.
>>735129950>>735130068What's your Gaming PC's specs? I'm not here to judge you. I'm just curious.You don't know what you have until it's gone!
>>735130387where's the book, moldbug
>>735129830>implying there was ever a golden age of gaming
>>735129830the medieval dark ages were not the real dark ages btw
>>735129830the money to quality ratio has never been lower.
>>735129886>Genshit still at the topHow?
>>735131384hoyo is the nintendo of the gacha world; their fans spend their paychecks at whatever dogshit the company throws at them
>>735129830Dark age for AAA and AA.
>>735129830No way fag, I'm having fun playing indie garbage.
>>735129830yes, even indies these days are just slop with no real soul to it.
>>735129830Dunno, I'm content with what I have
>>735131028RX9070XT, 7800X3D, 32gb ram.
>>735131884Nice! :3
>>735131884how you like those buggy drivers anon
>>735131741>EUVHAHAHAAHH
>>735129830I've got like 60-70 indie games wishlisted that I'm looking forward to. AAA's are fucked but I could not give a shit.
>>735131384sunk-cost fallacy, retards have spend millions in the game so they cant stop playing because it will feel like a waste of money
>>735132041Yeah, I got it from cheap from a key reseller, but it's not as good as I expected.
>>735129830who the fuck is this character, I keep seeing her posted on /v/>inb4 AI slop
>>735129830it can always be worse
>>735130978Anon most inhabitants of this board are too young to get that.
>>735129830You keep asking this and the answer is always "yes, if you're a normalfag who only plays AAA trash".
>>735131384Because it's quite literally the best game of the decade and I am not joking here.
>>735129830Why won't you play indies OP?
>>735132257cut vertically next time.
>>735129830Not by any metric. Games keep being made, sold and enjoyed without issue. Some sectors are doing better than others, tho, so you might be screwed if you have very specific cravings.
>>735132246there hasn't been a good indie game in a long time anon, it's all slop. and the AA industry is also practically dead.
>>735129830Hand made games are going to die. We old fags can finally break free of this industry.I fear for AI driven never ending games with MTX and all that shit tho.Children with bad parente are going to get fucked on levels we havent seen yet
>>735131980I hate them and every time I need to update I regret I've ever moved from Nvidia. On the bright side, I hear that the newest greens also have their fair share of driver issues, so I guess it's not that bad.
>>735132295Exactly. All you can do is seethe because you have absolutely no arguments against it.
>>735129830You're the one telling everyone to buy remake after remake.You're the one calling anyone without a 5090 poor.You're the one saying consoles are still dominant despite the awful sales.You people willed this future into existence and then turn around and act as if you have no idea what is going on.
>>735132420>old fagsYou are a newfag.
>>735132423>u r mad!you are retarded is an argument.
>>735132661>personal attack is an argumentSaar, this website is for white people only. If you have nothing to say then shut the fuck up and go back to your shitting street.
>>735130387>dislikes actually based and influential right-wingers like Thiel, Yarvin and BAP purely because you think they’re JewsYou /pol/tards deserve to lose because you are incapable of making alliances.
If you have to ask then you never knew the good times.
>>735129830It's pretty dark yea.
>>735132815NTA, but it seems more like jews are just really fucking bad at relating to non-jews, and create a miserable culture when they get any modicum of power.
>>735132804you're clearly not white because you can't comprehend basic nuance and believe your retarded opinions are worth debating.
>>735132815>influential right-wingers like ThielThe retard thinks the antichrist is not just real, but anti-AI
>>735129830yea but also in the golden age of troonposters like yourself
>>735132815>right wing>jews
>>735132932>retarded nigger who doesn't play video games decodes which opinion is worth debatingThe absolute state.
>>735133126damn you're going through every thought-terminating template reply. what's next on your flowchart nigger?
>>735130842It’s not game devs dumbass it’s greedy execs
>>735130842But the vast majority of gacha games are flops.
>>735129830nah, could be worse
>>735133883and what do they do when it flops and EoS? make another one
>>735129830>Are we in the dark age of gaming?It's ALWAYS the golden age of gaming unless gaming goes away because we still have access to all the old games of the past.The true dark age would be when we can no longer to afford to play those games, whether by cost of software, hardware, energy, or freedom.
>>735133883Most games of any kind are. This is why devs seek easy solutions to reduce risk.
>>735129830No, we're in the dark age of gamers. They're mostly faggot millennials, trannys and girls, and the industry is catering to them
>>735134268This is such a stupid thing to say. Then we are always in the golden age of cinema, illustration, writing, music, poetry and any art. No matter how shit it gets and how rare it is to find any real appreciation for good shit you will say its still the golden age because that art exists on some piracy Web page in an old dusty corner of the Internet.When the entire planet is just lobotomised coomers jerking off to AI porn you will say we are still in a cultural golden age because you have a retarded, meaningless definition for it.
>>735129886remember all those niche jap games you enjoyed in your youth? now they have been replaced with this shit
