It is ironic he is thrashing AI use with this thumbnail.

I agree mostly with Mack on Worthabuy, and i can only go by my own purchases and the games i play, and i haven't bought hardly any games in the last 5 or 6 years and play my older and modded games, so yeah i do. modern games are not good enough on the whole, i did stop buying them.

The consumer is NEVER to blame. We are mostly sheep. The blame is on the shepherd.

"You don't understand. Game Freak FORCED me to buy their unfinished slop".
No. A lot of gamers need to grow up and take some responsibility for once.

Fucking same bro! I remember people posting this guys opinions on games like he knew what was up. Imo, he doesn't know shit and my tastes deffo do not align with his.

This is strictly a AAA industry issue. Gaming is the biggest entertainment industry on earth precisely because it expanded way beyond the hardcore crowd. We GAF and the purple site and reddit represent a tiny fraction of that global market. An AAA release will succeed or fail regardless of whether we buys it or not. The real irony of videos like this is that they only ever reach that exact same enthusiast group.

Wanted to watch the video, but the AI slop thumbnail is a good indication of the what the quality in the video will be.

This is one of the best years in gaming of the past 10 years. Outside of insane hardware prices, we are eating good

Honestly, the thing that strikes me the most is the polarization in response that's reaching absolutely schizophrenic levels.
Some games get shredded for the most minor issues, while others get glazed to the moon even when their issues/limitations are undeniable.
The politicization of gaming is doing untold damage, as is the relentless grievance faming of the new media.
Drama might line their pockets in the short-term, but eventually the chickens will come home to roost. People will tire of the relentless negativity and frankly deliberate ignorance in many cases on the part of these commentators.
I mean, when we have people cheer-leading product failures and studio closures, what do they really think this is going to result in the long term ? If the market shrinks prices will rise, release schedules will thin, and choices will reduce.

Current state of games is, you need a patch before you can play it, there used to be a time you go what you paid for....now it seems barebones are added at full price, then you wait years for things to flesh out....case in point: "E-Football" by Konami
