The market only wants to pay for 6 new call of duty's per year. A new elder scrolls per decade, and a new gta every 4 score and 7 years.

Nobody is spending money on anything else, so the studios stop taking risks. Hollywood has the same problem, so it's non-stop avengers.

theyre the ultimate proof that attempts at equity ruin every passionate, enthusiast hobby. if anything, modern games show that a 'capitalist' market is easily coerced into soft tranny communism with a few decades of microplastics, shaming and psyops. their quality is representative of the idealized mindset of the stink ditch tribe: vapid, unrealistic and lacking a real drive to create true art.

Games are uniquely difficult for the people on the left to set out on their own and start their own studios, because a good game requires completely different skillsets like programming, art, music, 3D modelling, etc.

yes they're all catered to the lowest common denominator now. all games just have a compass with a big green "go here" objective on it. so you no longer have to think about where to go or what to do for a quest.

Have you tried dark n darker? Or even elden ring for that matter. Doesn’t hold your hand and expects you to get fucked. There are based games out there among the candypoop. Clearly the streaming effect that hit music and video has enveloped games too. Too many free games means lower quality across the board. Plus it’s more about marketing to breach the noise and making a familiar, acceptable game loop rather than novel mechanics.

You underestimate the amount of effort it takes to make a game.

Video games aren't profitable, they require thousands of hours from very large groups of people and these people are overworked and underpaid to get games out incredibly quickly.

People don't want to do that anymore because it was criminal. If you want good games we need a better system that focuses the efforts of a large group of intelligent individuals without taking advantage of them.

I made some shitty games and published them because some people are heck bored waiting for their next favourite game to come out. But now that I've had practice my next one should be better. I know quite clearly where I stand for my games but I'll never be able to make something quality enough for you and thats no skin off my cheek.

Lower your standards or get more patient. Up to you.

Bruh a handful of nerds can pump out a good game every couple years. The caveat is it's going to be really simplistic but by no means bad. AAA titles are just polished turds but for fancy graphics alone people with terminally shit taste are drawn to them like moths to a flame.

Again you still underestimate.

We are talking a book. thousands of paintings often 3D. An album. A complex mathematical design. All wrapped up into something perfectly designed to communicate to you exactly what you need to know on a fun and exciting way.

There is a reason people go into university for all of these subjects. They require complex and out of the box thinking on topics like themes and metaphor's. Euclidean geometry is like what even the fuck and it's in several video games.

Video games are amazing and we should be throwing money at devs the same way we do actors or book writers.

I know the whole starving artist schtick but this is different. We need a big team for 1 product and that requires some amount of organisation.

It's not the same as building a factory and getting people to sew some cloth.

That's the thing though: Men make their own history but they do not make it as they please. They do not make it under a set of self selected circumstances. Men are the agents of history but that history is pre-determined for them. The culture is always influenced by the socio-politcal and economic foundations of society. If you have an economy that hyper focuses on the generation of profits then you will get a society that hyper focuses on the generation of profits either for or as corperations. Look at the tech sector and their massive surveillance of every single citizen on the planet earth. All so discord can know what kind of dragon dildos the average troon whore likes to shove up their own ass. Even when we are not working we are producing profits. Our society has told people that "production and consumption above all else is the definition of your hollow lives." Culture, philosophy, uh.....basic reasoning and logic....these things take time and get in the way of the generator; the generation of profits.

That's the evil of this system. It's not enough for them to trade a bit of toil and suffering in exchange for each other's vices. They have to make it a one way deal where they denigrate me while they get to laugh and make fun of me.

The industry actively punishes you for liking video games now, and this behavior has spread to other parts of the economy: BMW's heated seat season pass for example.

It is proven that the average attention span of a zoomer is lower than that of a goldfish, therefore it makes perfect sense why this is happening. Why would big studios release quality games when they can just release a moba/battle roayale/etc. type of game and make money off of loot boxes, dlc, skins and other low-effort content? It's not like zoomers are taking any of these games seriously either. They just need the dopamine so that their brains stay fried. If there is anyone to blame for this phenomenon, it's the consumer. Those with a functional brain will ignore any video game released post-2015 and instead torrent old games. There are hundreds if not thousands of quality games from the past that you haven't played. Nobody is forcing you to play modern games, just your zoomer brain. I personally feel pity and disgust for anyone playing modern games.

On another note, if you are not in school/college and are still playing video games for more than an hour each day, there is something wrong with you and you should consider buying some rope.

I actually think the reason why games are so bad these days is because I'm the era of SNES you had these simple parameters to work with. It's like how blues guitar can sound really really good despite it's simplicity but complicated metal guitar can be uninspired and lame. These days everyone is expected to use cutting edge graphics. This is why Dark Souls kicks so much ass. It looks great but the weightiness and impactfulness of the sword swings is satisfying, plus there's lots of lore and mystery.

I've been thinking a lot about this. I know talking about wanting my video game characters to be sexy and not niggers makes me sound like a NEET but I have a skill set. There's so much red tape around what you can do and capital is locked behind bankers and their system and their laws. Imagine how much good could be done if you could just make and distribute goods as long as you have the capacity to make them. No copywrite/patent bullshit. That's kind of why the chinks, for all their faults, are based. They don't care about those laws and and shit out products at their true value. This is a society where YOU get punished for defending yourself if some lowlife tries to harm you. Only the state is allowed to dispense justice. Only bankers decide what is money.

Hired labor is as old as the Roman Empire. You clearly don't know what you're talking about. More so, business owners are workers, work on average much longer than wage workers, and workers have the ability to obtain capital. People work, as hired labor, largely due to time and investment constrains. Most people don't want to save the capital to start a business, or accept the responsibilities of owning one.
What your complaining about is a lack of ability. The differences we see in society today is largely due to genetics and geography. And its been that way since the beginning of human society.

No, according to Marx communism doesn't have anything to do with profit. Commodities no longer exist in the first phase or second phase of communism. Therefore there can not be any profit. Please, just stop posting. You're uneducated about his ideas.
But, his entire theory is retarded anyways. There can not be a "classless society." Society requires classes to function - otherwise there would be no job specialization to carry out life sustaining activities for its members. The whole concept of a "stateless society" is utopian since a society must operate as a state to to ensure its survival. All societies are built upon a social contract that requires some state-like entity to enforce. Communism doesn't eliminate the state because a functioning society needs an economy, and an economy can not exist without form of state to recognize property ownership or exchange.

Lol, this not true at all. There has always been an underclass of people who sold their labor for compensation. The whole basis of society is built on the fact that there always has to be an underclass of people who must do the jobs no one else is willing to do. This is where waged labor, hired labor comes from. Not everyone has the skills, or the ability, to get the jobs they want or desire. And society needs servants to function. Its just hired labor.Wage labor even in Ancient Rome. More so the word "capitalism" was invented by socialists, and it doesn't describe economic phenomena every well at all. Adam Smith never even used the word. If anything, "capitalism" is just the boogeyman socialists use to blame all their problems on to avoid taking responsibility for their lives.

I'm not sure how forced conscription, concentration camps, and having a secret police force is "democratic." Even more so, those experiments completely failed and didn't even last more than 5 years.

In fact, "market socialism" is not even possible according to Marx. Markets would allow wage labor, commodity accumulation, and capital ownership all of which are anti-antithetical to communism. Marxism is a science, and therefore, socialism has to be based on reality. A market socialist economy would not prevent the ills of "capitalist society", according to Marx, because they do nothing to prevent capitalists from doing wasteful overproduction. In fact, Marx slammed Bakunin for your views. In shit hole anarchist Catalonia, this became obvious because anarchist co-operatives, relying on markets, would compete with each other like capitalist firms. This led to production problems as the anarchist co-operatives would waste time making useless shit instead of making military materials for the war effort. We also saw the same problems in Yugoslavia where "market socialism" just led wage differentials. Unemployment, inequality, and corrupt bosses - all the crap you communist retards complain about now did not go away.

the games that are good today achieve it via highly refined execution of an idea (games like rocket league, factorio, etc.) or incorporate mechanics from tabletop games (games like slay the spire). if a publisher wants to make a lot of money, all they need to do is look at boardgames and lift some mechanics from there. that's where all the innovation is happening.

These firms are not worker-owned, and employees do not enjoy the same rights or privileges given coop members. Instead, they are wage laborers. Even in the Basque country and Spain, industrial and retail coops employ significant numbers of temporary workers on short-term contracts. Today, only about one-half of Mondragon’s businesses are cooperatives, and only one-third of its employees are members."

No? Why would that be the case? People make game, you are free to buy game or to not buy game. Other people are free to do the same. I fail to grasp the big issue here.
>It's like they're refusing to make quality games now.
Okay then don't buy game, it's that simple.
Or buy cool indies (a lot of indie gems are free btw), or emulate old games, or just pirate. You aren't forced to financially support shitty companies that make shitty products, that's the wonder of capitalism. In a socialist system, you would be forced to financially support the government mandated option, whether you like it or not.

The problem is those nerds can't work on that game in the evenings at the house they all live in and pay for with the money they make at their part time jobs at the mall. The economy, quality of life, and life expectancy are collapsing and along with it the free time to think, experiment, be creative. You're 100% right that in theory 4 nerds living together can build something awesome in their spare time financing themselves with the extra money they have from some equivalent of gig work, but there aren't as many of those arrangements as there used to be. Everything is riskier now.

In a capitalist system the best game devs would sell the most games, earn the most money, and then be able to make even better games. But as long as the government is able to print its own money, they can effectively buy out any industry to turn it into a propaganda machine.

Bullshit

[Anonymous No.53492088]

Every single multi-player FPS game is ruined by cheaters these days.. every game that has any potential to be interesting that is.
Back in my day weapons were unforgiving, the gameplay was fast and shitters would get shat on.. today every game gets nerfed to shits because manchildren cry on reddit that they get owned because "le rifle is le op plz fix" which really doesn't matter because they are shit anyway and will abandon the game to play some new hentai shit in a couple of weeks.
Another problem is how they make half-assed games.. like the Doom revival of the Doom franchise.. in the begining everything was great, guns were powerful, movement was mint and it had that old school feel from the late 90s, then of course gamers who were born too late to appreciate such mechanics started voicing their opinion and whaddaya know they nerfed the game to shit so it now feels like some akward nerf arena shooter, then doom ultimate was on the doorsteps.. i was excited.. maybe they will fix what they messed up in the first place and release some of those classic game modes like Capture the flag, but no, instead we get this really shitty demon-slayer 2v1 gay ass mode that nobody except overpaid developers and some media outlets were excited for.

What happened? Pic related is still exciting to me but modern le CYBER PUBKS!!!!” Isnt at all. Havent bought any new game since fallout 4. They so not interest me. Either bloated mess, trying too hard to be a movie, gay4pay online, gambling crap and just soul sucked.

Pic related was made by like 3 devs in 16 months. No tranny division with design and shit. It was fantastic, cool as shit and full of soul. Many games were back then and didnt need huge budget and bloated teams. Look at Halo 1, then halo 4 or 5 or whatever the fuck its on now.

Honestly there is enough pre-2012 content to last forever so no big deal anyway. People should start making games for these older systems and selling them lol.

I wish this were true but it isn’t
Capitalism has proved to only make every field “efficient”.
Innovation and competition works in the industry, because it creates a need for new product
But in entertainment, if the “new product” is of the same category of the old product, then the competition is very thin.
Efficiency through capitalism is the ratio : (Time+Capital)/Return
It takes a lot less time, and a lot less capital, to rehash an existing game into a new product, so it will happen over and over.
In other fields, the “efficiency” ratio is compensated through the fact that if you innovate, you will crush the competition and eat part of their market share, like AMD is doing to Intel, like EVs are doing to classic vehicles, like Retina screens did to other ones, and so on..
In gaming, in fact in entertainment in general, if you innovate, worst case scenario you fuck up, best case scenario you make as much as that other studio that released goyslosh 3
Last time someone “innovated” to create a need was PlayerUnknowns battleground derived from H1Z1, creating the “battle royale” mode.
And after very soon, AAA studios joined in, put in reasonable effort, and took over.
You’re now left with studios that dish out good games because they can’t afford to drop down to nothingness (FromSoftware literally lives on their releases, if they flop they’ll eat dust), and studios that rise to greatness and start to afford being mediocre (CDPR are now well known enough that they will probably have decent sales on their next game, regardless of how bad the last one flopped), and studios that have grew big enough of an NPC fan base that they feel they’re “too big to fail” (EA, Ubisoft, Activision, etc…)
You also have the problem of franchises, which completely dampens creativity, if you want to include Elden ring into the “souls games” category, I can’t even remember when was the last original IP game made off the top of my head

Yeah and everything is just “re-master” of some old game these days, with VERY few new IPs. The new ones tend be bloated shitty games, and the re-masters tend to be conpletely stripped of everything that made them good. They stopped doing graphic only updates when they realised zoomers would cry and not play them without loot boxes.

Look at the resident evil 2 and 3 remasters. I was looking forward to them for fucking years before even announced. Then they arrived without the fixed camera angle…. What is the fucking point??? That was what made them what they were. They may as well have just made a new game.

Why they do it? No creativity, wanted to try scam some non-zoomers and also wanted to ensure zoomers sucked it up so they didnt put foxed camera angles

Open world games are lame, and over done. Not interesting.

Its not about graphics and hardware its about tue fact these games are dull and repetitive and clones of shit we have all played before.

Old games with their shit graphics meant lower dev costs and time, more risks, quirks and a need to create interesting gameplay from subtle mechanics

That is why they were often better. You think anything like Pokemon will ever be released again? Not in this environment.
