2014 might be the worst year in gaming

Worst year in gaming?

Forget worst year in gaming, I think we are in the midst of the worse decade in gaming, the arcade greats have gone- Daytona, Project Gotham, Motorstorm, Ridge Racer, no football game harking back to the PES era....Tennis games are all but obsolete...big franchises not allowed to fail otherwise they are "doomed" for decades....ie Deus Ex, DeadSpace, Mass Effect, Alone in the Dark, Guardians of the Galaxy.....to name but a few

Killzone Shadow Fall felt next gen 100%

Huge graphics improvement over PS3
I was an outlier with that game because it didn't amaze me at all. It had a lot of jaggies everywhere that messed up the visuals for me and the game was really bad IMO. Killzone 2 is among my favorite games but this was the opposite of that.
 
2014 had Assassin's Creed Unity, Bayonetta 2, Forza Horizon 2, Dark Souls II, Destiny, Mario Kart 8, Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes, Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, and Ultra Street Fighter IV.

2024 had fuck all. Even my GOTY (Tekken 8) shit the bed (by adding FFXVI shitbird) that year. I am still only playing Castlevania Dominus Collection, which was just a compilation of older titles.

Can't you be original atleast? Have you become so lazy that you have to get an LLM to do your thinking and writing for you. This is all AI slop

You know lists and bullet points existed before ChatGPT, right?

You're nuts!

Not for the game releases themselves, but for the industry. It's all right there in the post. I also followed up on analog_future analog_future future's post and clarified this. 2007 had a lot of banger releases. It also had a lot of iterative annual releases with zero innovation, a rise in DRM, and an incredible uptick in monetization.

I bet there is a 70% chance it was written by an LLM
