Is video gaming dead?

I sure hope so

Not as dead as Transformers

Don't know, but sure as hell is dying.

PS4 is the Transformers of video games

Transformer videogames are so died

No, but it will be when the PS5 and Xbox One X 720 come out with stream-only subscription gaming

The mainstream ones are a lot more stagnant than before at the very least

No, it's just past its prime and declining like Western civilization.

whats that supposed to mean

Any good games in this setting?

>>382643268
Actually there's many factors

>rising technology leading to higher budget and devtime required to make something pretty or "impressive" enough
>higher budgets lead to projects being more make-or-break and getting greenlit for anything deemed "risky" nearly impossible
>old guard mostly out of good ideas or losing their sense for game design
>new blood who grew up with games just making thing they played but with Y, trying too hard to be "original", or failing to realize what actually goes into making a good game
>stricter regulating of what ends up in a game be it through focus testing everything to death
>or through pandering to small fringe groups of varying reliability and ultimately making something shallow
>or out-of-touch execs forcing them to do what they think will sell more

And a lot more I could probably get into.
