Was it really that bad???
>>737733043>moviegame virus at an all time high >first wokeslop games and the troonification of the industry >Destiny, the first modern live service came out>Snoy began stepping away from Japan for good>A ton of super cancerous games like GTA Online, Rocket League, etc. came out and never lost popularity Awful… gaming never recovered from this. This time period was even worse than the great casualization of the late 00’s
If these are the only games you can think of, you are a gigapleb.>Bloodborne>Super Mario 3D World >Mario Kart 8>Dota 2>XCOM>TLOU>Dark Souls 2>Bayonetta 2that's not even going into indiechad games
>>737733043It really fucking sucked.
What's the problem with Inside?
>>737733043>- 2016>implying it ended
>>737733207>Bloodborne Great game>3D WorldOne of the weakest 3D Mario’s. Not a bad game but not really great or noteworthy >MK8Great game for me at least, but MK is kind of a given you know. It’s always a solid 8/10 series and nothing more >Dota 2Cmon now>XCOMGood but not amazing >TLOUCmon now>DaS2 Cmon now>Bayo 2Fine but not that great
>>737733043metal gear rising came out in 2013
>>737733371Holy filtered.
I still play Nuclear Throne on a weekly basis. It’s the perfect warmup because you reach the end boss and loop the game in like 10 minutes.
This was a weird transitional period. Most games were crossgen because PS4 was stillborn beyond winning the PR war so it felt more like an extension of the PS3. Games like Dragon's Crown, Alien Isolation, Bloodborne and Odin Sphere Leifthrasir were cool, and some good shit was happening on handhelds like A Link Between Worlds and Tearaway, but this was definitely a dry period on the whole.

>>737733043Its hard to say any age is a dark age. Because people will find outliers. However those should but ultimately those should be considered exceptions to the rule. >>737733348I have to agree its not too uncommon to have almost dead years where barely anything of note comes out. Remember 2024 when people were unsure of what was gonna win Goty because there weren't really any goty worth games and a DLC was nominated?
>>737733043Dark souls 3, my favourite grayslop game
>>737733043it's only gotten worse
>>737733043Nintendo had some good output.Was a bit dry though, fucking shadows of mordor and DAI were able to win GotY
>>737733043NoTW3BamhamMGS5dishonored i think
>>737733043Inside and Goat Simulator are kino though
>>737733314No idea, I liked it
>>737733043Nah. Great time for Iddito Noup.The Last of UsSunless SeaThe DivisionHomefront: The RevolutionMGS VOP is a some kind of fried chicken connoisseur as usual.
>>737733043Inside is pretty good.
Stop lying that Bloodborne is a good game.It's one of the worst ever.
>>737733043It was bad for Nintendo fans but good for everyone else.
>>7377370942014 was the big anomaly. Many weird games, tons of mid games, not a single surefire hit.
>>737733043Smash 4 was ludo. 3DS > Wii U
