      I seriously have nothing to say to anyone who doesn’t see it that way. If all you play is big budget corpo horseshit and your first instinct is to blame a generational cohort, that says more about you.

        AAAlways has been .jpg. Just look at literally every sports game since the Street series.

        Btw kudos on the memetic payload that is your username, you monster.

            Explicit content? What could be so explicit about a back massage?

              To this day, I still wonder if the massager that my parents had, and LET US USE ON EACH OTHER, was actually marketed as a massager. It was basically the wand from the image above, but instead of the little egg/tooth vibrating thing on the end, it was like a massive UFO shape with different contours cut into rubber around the edge, and was big enough that it would be the appropriate size if we used it as a mace. Like, were they the typical ‘too innocent’ to think about it as a sex toy types, or was it really meant to be a massager?

              Thoughts I shouldn’t have at night for $500, alex!

      AAA games are made by companies that have boomers and early gen x in charge

      Indie games are more likely to be made by people actually doing the development, i.e. millennials & early gen Z currently

      Indie games have been having a great decade, AAA keeps getting worse

      Thanks for attending my TED talk

      Indie gaming now is great for players, but for gamedevs it is a saturated market and most of them don’t make a profit

      And also, the rate of good AAA games coming out is still the same, it’s just they’re drowning by the see of identical boring cashgrabs.
      It’s the same with all the other media, cool shit is still there, you just have to learn to filter the bullshit out.
