The Police once raided a warehouse and found 3,800 PlayStations running FIFA

Ukraine's security service raided a warehouse in Vinnytsia expecting to find a crypto mining farm

Instead they found PS4 consoles stacked on racks from floor to ceiling

Every single one was running FIFA 21 on autopilot, farming Ultimate Team coins 24 hours a day to sell on the black market

The operation was stealing $259,000 a month in electricity and causing power blackouts across the entire city

The consoles alone were worth $1.5 million

EA makes $1.6 billion a year from Ultimate Team

The FIFA coin black market is worth over $200 million a year

At black market rates, 3,800 consoles farming coins 24/7 could pull in $3 to $5 million a year

i guess the fromsoft/soulsborne games are interesting, even if not to everyone's taste. they basically took the castlevania: symphony of the night aesthetic and successfully expanded it into 3D. even people who hate stuff like bloodborne don't usually consider it a 'bad' game in terms of how it looks or functions.

cyberpunk 2077 also looks pretty good after the initial glitched launch.

Overwatch gets memed on a lot now but was truly 180 for the first couple years after it came out

Personally I would put Rimworld and the steam release of Dwarf Fortress up there but those are much more niche in appeal

And that's just the games I've played. There's also shit like BOTW/TOTK that everyone claims is a Great Game. We're Just Old, champ.

When do you think the bigger shift came? Do you think it was in the 2000s when always online multiplayer became normal, then digital storefronts, persistent accounts, voice chat, achievements, DLC etc? Or do you think it came in the 2010s with streaming, creator culture, discord servers, battle passes and identity-heavy fandom? I think In the early 2000s-2010 it was starting to become identity-adjacent but wasn't too bad yet. But by the time streaming and seasonal events came around it was a complete immersive alternate reality with no chance of escape

The shift was probably the release of Deus Ex (2000) the first instance of predictive programming in gaming, and the start of social engineering through it

1994-2004 was a decent run. Starting with FF6/DKC/Super Metroid, throw in Sonic 3 even though the fans are all dead, ends with Half life2/MGS3/Halo 2/WoW. Covers the whole PC renaissance, Starcraft, Diablo 1-2, counter strike, Red Alert, Morrowind, you name it. Also the rise and fall of JRPGs

I don't know how you can say there is a lack of games. if anything there are too many. of course, jaded and anhedonic 40somethings are going to dismiss every one of them because they are just projecting their disillusionment in a symbolic fashion. that's understandable because Life is Fundamentally Meaningless.

Technically speaking though, when a good game like BG3 comes out it isn't just "a game". It is THE game, a platform unto itself that you can spend countless hour playing around in. There are many like this now, with the most notable being Fortnite Minecraft Roblox.

The problem is that if none of these appeal to you then you don't have a "The Game" and thus is born the State of Gaming.

As someone itt said games used to have novelty. They are literally GAMES. That’s what they’re good for aside from if you’re into the competitive aspect. The medium is in an extremely stagnant State if the most someone can get excited for is “wow a Roguelike.” You couldn’t get away with Roguelikes in 1998. If you tried you’d get fucking liquidated and bought out by Midway.

Gaming used to have carve-outs for different Cliques. We had Primal Rage and other horrific and violent titles on Genesis and 32X. 32X brought Doom to the masses for the first time. Also Nerds used to have disproportionate representation as consumers of Gaming, while also dominating development whereas now you get 50 Nerds on a “Large AAA Team” and 600 Feminists.

I have one. I try to find games for it sometimes. for some reason, super mario 64 DS and ocarina of time 3D "count" as games. those aren't games. also pokemon is for 80 IQ Low Losers and 10 year olds. playing One of those games is fine but if you keep buying new ones you're autistic imo.
