Which genre had the hardest fall into the modern state of enshittification?
Action adventureDaily reminder that all tloufags need to rope
>>748161549Hardest fall would be RTS games because they fell hard in popularity and a lot of games copy the big games in the genre, platformer games haven't really innovated so they're stagnant, sports games remain as bad as ever so it never fell, hardest enshittification would probably be simulator games because people want quick bucks on Steam with shit like "GROCERY STORE SIMULATOR" or whatever, bonus if it uses AI slop graphics
>>748161549Either FPS or Action Adventure GamesBut honestly all of them have been fucked, some of the genres are outright dead.
All games are action adventure RPGs now. Every other genre had died.
>>748161924>enshittification would probably be simulator games because people want quick bucks on Steam with shit like "GROCERY STORE SIMULATOR" or whatever, bonus if it uses AI slop graphicsThose aren't really simulators though. Actual simulators as in flight/racing have probably actually gotten better (in some areas).
Roguelikes had the hardest fall but people won't admit it
>>748161549Platform games Side scrollingOn rail shootingBeat em ups not to be confused with fighting gamesRts is deadTop down rpg or top down any type of games. God of war was a visual feast and fun to watch now it's just a 3rd person over the shoulder game.
>>748161549Platfomring games no one here even remembers them>>748161987This is true
>>748161987This is true every game is just the same. They do reserch on what people like and do so everything is the same. All fps games control the same. Pretty soon all games will just be ether vr games or just remakes. It's the end of innovation in video games
>>748162067There are just so many coming out now but like 80% are garbage, 15% are ok and the final 5% are absolute hidden gems
>>7481630240% of them are hidden gems, it's a bad genre for pseuds now
Fighting Games for me personally. Motion inputs have been overly simplified and the entire roster now follows that set core of limited inputs so everyone plays exactly the same with minimal risks. They then toss on a bunch of universal mechanics everyone shares that can be abused beter by certain characters so the combat system no longer revolves strictly around character choice and the unique tools they offer but which characters can abuse the universal tools better.I knew it was over when I saw someone on here complaining that Avatar had too much character variety and the game should have just been a standard air dasher where everyone had the same tools.
Racing. because it’s not even fucking there anymore
>>748163075Ok i'll admit its 6 years old but this is one of the most addicting games i have ever played
>>748163249Its quite silly how racing has now moved into the sim genre with everyone trying to make it more and more realistic as time goes by, to the point people are building whole ass rigs that even have manual gearboxes and clutch pedals
Platfotmers because they went in the exact opposite direction. Everyone wants to be Mario Odyssey now where you can do a bunch of air stalling and jump extending tricks in the air where you basically skip the entire level. Indie platformer games try to emulate 2D Sonic games and let you fly off a ramp so you can just float across the entire level. Then you get shit that's a mix of both like Penny's Big Breakaway and wonder why they even hired a level designer and people to work on level hazards gimmicks and obstacles if the entire game was clearly designed on the idea of doing all your tricks to ignore the ground.I ended up watching some Minecraft obby videos and was amazed how fun it was to just fucking run and jump with your only influence being changing your direction and distance and you were at the mercy of a the level layouts and hazards like there being a long gap, a narrow platform, slippery floor, bouncy floor, sticky floor and all other tyoes of hazards.
>>748162067Roguelikes were always shit
>>748161549why is the image so small
>>748161549Unquestionably FPS.
>>748161549FPS games are a disaster these days. They are either live garbage or tranny autist boomer shooters.
>>748161549>Genre that devolved into a miserable nightmare when they were once on top of the world 20+ years ago, true, absolute enshittificationMultiplayer FPSOnline Multiplayer games in general, going from the players having freedom, to being controlled by the publisher with everything on lockdown>Genre that died because of shit decisions by everyone, appealing to a niche 1%, stripping away anything actually fun in favor of competitionRTS>Genres constantly on death's door because it is doing the same kind of shit as the above, but only hang on by specific lingering appealsFightingMMO>Genre that got bloated with a lot of cookie-cutter nonsense and busywork, chasing minor trends caused by each viral hitAdventure / RPG Most damning of all, everything has RPG mechanics tacked on to them.>Genres that faded from popularity, became minigames in other genres, or are just carrying on while playing to their audienceRail Shooters, Shmups, Rhythm Games, Racing Games, many others...>Genre that is hot now because they are easy to make, so there are a shitload of them, and obviously nearly all will be shitRoguelikes
>>748161549Lacks the games I play.Where is survival like Raft or Greenhell?Where are the Management Games?Where are the cozy farming games ala Stardew?Where are the Colony Sims?Why does /v/ hate good games?
>>748161549>fallracing games probably, maybe fighters. most other genres were awful from the start.
>>748162945>its the end of innovationNot really. The same design choices that produce genre homogeneity in videogames can be reversed to define genre distinction in videogames.
>>748161549MMOs are going to die in this lifetime
>>748164918zero iq faggotbrain take
>>748165224yeah, the mmo as a genre has already died like 15 years ago
Survival Horror is such a meme genre. It doesn't even impy survival like Forest and Darkwood. It's just "games likes Resident Evil" (not AitD for some reason). But everyone has a boner for RE so it's ok. Even though it's a meme forced by Mikami and he tried to force the meme of Panic Horror with Dino Crisis as well, except it didn't work out and DC is just RE with dinos.
RPGs are honestly in an awful situation right now. RPG elements have been taken on by everything else but true RPGs are rare, and usually really gay.
>>748165519Play Skald
Racing. Nothing but crappy sim racers anymore.
>>748161549Action adventure. Love the genre to death in its classic forms but Sony has absolutely dragged that one through the mire.
hentai games
>>748165458Survival horror is just old-school action adventure with an M rating.
>>748164223FPS was always a shit genre just due to how little variety it had. There's so much that could be done with the medium but nope, let's just only ever focus on multiplayer and linear campaigns or wave based survival. God forbid an indie dev wants to try their hand at a shooter. For some reason every indie shooter fumbles their post-launch roadmap. I'm convinced the genre is cursed at this point.
>>748166157Goldeneye's objectives scaling with the difficulty is the actual best idea that game had.
>>748165583Great game. Reminds me of OSR.
roguelikeshow in god's name is balatro a roguelike
>>748166157Onirism is so much fun when it clicks, but man that game needs an actual dev team.
>>748166505It's ackshually a roguelite, ,which is what most games in genre fall under.
>>748162001Actual simulators are better than ever regarding accuracy and technology, too bad that the devs usually forget to pack and actual gameplay experience to go with it.
>>748163641Too bad the tranny indie devs don't understand that in Super Mario Odyssey you actually have to touch the ground when you play the game. Donkey Kong Bananza and Astro Bot also understood this. Platformers made by real developers still get it right. Indie platformers have always sucked ass, the spikes-everywhere slop of 10 years ago was also absolute dogshit.
>>748161549The only answer is sports games. The variety of games and the quality in gameplay and technology between the 6th gen and today is not even comparable. Raped genre.
