homogenisation of video games

[Stupid Clown]

Back in gamings prime you'd really only see AA and lower budget games straight up rip off and splice together mechanics from other games. If you were to play big budget AAA games from Capcom, Konami or Koie you were almost guaranteed something original and new.

Nowadays fucking Resident Evil is copying the Last of Us and Dark Souls. Everything has become so homogenized and soulless. Even Nintendo copies other companies instead of creating original new ideas. BOTW was a Ubislop clone. Mario Odyssey takes more inspiration from Banjo Kazooie than Mario 64.

The age of creativity in gaming has ended. We live in the age where games are designed with the intention of just copying whatever is popular.

I feel like this started with Sony movie games and spread everywhere else .

True. Devs these days are afraid of taking risks and experimenting with new concepts and ideas. Probably because development costs are higher than ever, and therefore the consequences of failure are worse as a result. So for them it's better to stick with that they know works.

Action games are rollslop, Jrpg are boring 4 niggers in a row glued to the ground spamming same elemental attack every time with either chad/stacey protagonists or some tranny freaks, RTS games are dead (replaced by LoL/Dota2), Arcade games are dead (replaced by mobile games), MMORPGs are dead (replaced by Gachas), indies are copying trends, Japanese games are chasing and copying western games. Shit is looking grim.

I wish gaming never went mainstream. Would be far better. I blame slop in the late 2000s like COD & GTA for helping gaming go mainstream.

Very apt observation. While I personally had fun with the Resident Evil 4 Remake, I do find it disgusting how they just turned it into Bloodborne with the parrying mechanic and gave it an extremely generic “get behind enemies and press square” type of stealth mechanic. At least the original Resident Evil 4 was novel. The remake on the other hand had zero new ideas.

Button Masher hunter. Modern Monster Hunter plays nothing like Monster Hunter. These faggots who only play the new games critique classic MH as being clunky when in reality they just suck. Fuck them for being too stupid to understand it

MMORPG's are partially responsible for why modern games are shit. FOMO and Dailys started with WoW. I completely agree that RTS games filter normies.

You would think but no, WoW started those trends.
