The last great modern games I’ve played it’s RE4 remake but that mostly thanks to the ground up job done by the groundbreaking original from 2005, so I “disqualify it”

    Modern games rule. UFO 50, Path of Achra, Balatro, and Halls of Torment are all bangers that came out last year.

    Now modern AAA games do suck because they have to make profit and expansion that competes with general index funds from the stock market rather than competing with other video games.

    Go check out some of the lower budget weirdo games, you might find something you like.

        IMO, if You ignore indie games, You lose the right to complain, that modern games suck. You should ask, why do AAA games suck.

        You say that as if indie is a singular genre. There are so many different kinds of indie games doing so many different things, I can’t believe anyone who would write them all off and claim they can’t find anything to enjoy ever.

        Almost every old game was an indie game by today’s standards
