LOL all the world can see SJW and lot of hate against white instead. There is nothing like white supremacy, that's just feminist and SJWs way of muddying the video game industry with gross content.

Toxic gamers are an issue I agree but it is mainly casual uninformed gamers that are the issue - I agree that the quality of writing in games has significantly dropped to the point I cannot play most games continuously and enjoy them because they lack a proper story. The greedy devs/publishers are the biggest issue at the moment - they believe they should be paid top dollar for some sub-standard crap they throw together and call it a video game. It's all about money to them and they don't really care about gamer satisfaction nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darya Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 This could just be me, but I feel like, in addition to what's been said, there's this huge lack of original storylines. From what I've seen as of late, and what has really dulled my interest in video games is the complete lack of fresh content- to me all these newer video games are just recycled plots with a few newer features and younger players chucked into the cocktail. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely dumbed down the Storyline quality to appeal to younger audiences and that goes for the broader audience because most of them do not care about a well-written story. It's all about the action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleasing the toxic gamers with bad content and also the way game influencers are making the games ahead has made things bitter as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Supply & demand is a big problem. The developers offer a limited time preorder of a game, that supposedly has extras and exclusive content for 3 times the normal price. Then they either get too many orders to handle, or they don't get enough. That's the supply part. The demand is on us. The gamers. We always want more, bigger, faster, badder, and better. We want the next in the series now, and many are too impatient and unwilling to wait. Which puts the developers on an unrealistic time crunch for fear that they'll lose their target audience to another game by another developer.

skyfire Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I think steam like stores can solve the supply and demand issues. But the thing is that gaming industry takes social inputs instead of fantasy. And that pretty much creates chaos in the gaming world with type of games which are waste of time.

Folk Artist Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 The video game industry today has a lot of development and business-related problems, that reflect in the final product - also look out for the pre-order hype with these games today and the false-advertising that goes along with it.

skyfire Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I don't think the big brands are much in financial issues. They seem to be donating money and doing the charity and handling social media acitvism. I don't think gaming industry is struggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shine_Spirit Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 One of the things that has irritated me a lot in the last few years is the greed of studios and companies in wanting to think only about money and leave stories of games aside (caring less and less about them).
