The White House Hunger Games: --- ------- ----- Edition pt2

In what way has gaming been "ruined?" I know this conversation started about loot boxes but clearly that's not the heart of the issue here.

games releasing unfinished, games that require gigabyte sized updates on consoles just to start playing, games being removed from marketplaces that you paid for and cant play anymore, physical games practically don't exist outside of nintendo, games abundantly related to real life politics, some games that have multimillion backings are just genuinely bad, popular indie games are starting to follow the same exact formula every time etc...

for a normie its probably fine. for someone that actually enjoys games its the worst time ever

also stuff like this has the ability to exist

Bill Clinton redemption (As "redeemed" as one villain taking down another could be considered as "redeemed" anyway) arc?

everything else in the list is obviously true but has nothing to do with woke feminists or whatever and everything to do with the macroeconomic environment

for someone that actually enjoys games its the worst time ever

if you like indie games i feel like we're in the best time ever, there's a firehose of creative interesting games coming out on steam, you just need to be tapped in to get visibility on the good stuff

Bill Clinton redemption* arc?

I have called for the full release of the Epstein files. I have provided a sworn statement of what I know. And just this week, I’ve agreed to appear in person before the committee. But it’s still not enough for Republicans on the House Oversight Committee.

Now, Chairman Comer says he wants cameras, but only behind closed doors. Who benefits from this arrangement? It’s not Epstein’s victims, who deserve justice. Not the public, who deserve the truth. It serves only partisan interests. This is not fact-finding, it’s pure politics.

I will not sit idly as they use me as a prop in a closed-door kangaroo court by a Republican Party running scared. If they want answers, let’s stop the games & do this the right way: in a public hearing, where the American people can see for themselves what this is really about.

I mean the rest of them are pretty valid complaints, usually when I hear that gaming is ruined it's complaints about dei or whatever nonsense
At least game streaming is probably not going to survive as a concept

if ram or gpus stay artificially scarce, game streaming is gonna be the only option in 10-15 years

stuffting and pissing my pants and crying because someone made a game with cringe writing and mcdonalds ad diversity that nobody is gonna play regardless

there is nothing wrong with game streaming, and how do you figure it won't survive as a concept? people can video share literally any game they are playing lol

the real problems with modern gaming are microtransactions, loot boxes, gacha bullstuff, and subscription based 'membership' garbage. also you got games out here that have been in 'early access' for 5+ years which is handicapped as forget

games being removed from the 'market place' like steam or epic games etc is also dumb, but at least there are ways to acquire the game by other means in that scenario (usually) but it's definitely more of a problem for online games or MMO's where the servers get shut down

what you don't even like it? it's got your stuff written all over it and its funded by the government. the European government no less (not the nasty American one). If you don't like it then why does it even exist? who or what is a game like this made for other than to sell some political message or idea?
