Gaming would be better today, if the Dreamcast saved SEGA. Discuss.

It would mean more competition, so yes. Because that's the only way to get a capitalist society to try and do good things for the consumer.

The Xbox was a huge cancer

>made FPS and brown and bloom a standard
>made paying for online a thing and now all console makers do it
>kinect

It would've just been Japanese interpretation of Xbox tbqh

People need to stop blaming Sega's failures on other people. The Saturn tanking was Sega's fault, and then with the Dreamcast, dont give me that "PS2 ruined everything!" Ahit because they had a good 2 YEARS to find their feet and player base. Reality is reality and people voted with their fucking wallets,
Anything else is just revisionism. You can bet your ass the Dreamcast would have had all the normie shit you decry about that gen had they still been a major player.

Xbox was totally cancer for starting competent internet gaming on console and adding competition to the environment

It also took away offline multiplayer in the process

That's the worst part for me, I don't play online much but now I can't play anything with friends because they don't have local multiplayer.

Whenever the competition surpasses 3, some consoles die off. Each console after Genesis got progressively worse, so I'm not sure if losing Sega was all that bad, but who knows what path they would've takenl. No, I don't consider the CD and 32X separate consoles
All 4 consoles were solid, though. Best generation of gaming
