What's wrong with modern games?

I don't play games all that much and everyone complains that modern games are shit. But why? What exactly do they get wrong
 
too much cartoons
 
Horrible writing and millennial improv comedy humor
 
It's weird. We've reached that point where it's really hard to separate fiction from reality. I think that's the worst part. It's just really hard to ignore some stuff sometimes, but I find myself going back to games way before all this mess and the stuff was always there really. I think it's just too prevalent now and all it takes is one forced thing and it's hated. Politics should never have touched gaming. I'll play most games if I was being honest, but I won't pay anything for them unless they're a series I really enjoy.
 
They try too hard to be movies and to appeal to braindead normalfaggots.

literally everything, they do literally everything wrong. reason for it is they hire foids and lgbterd
 
Everything is dumbed down and simplified in both Western and Japanese games. They lack depth and difficulty. Game design has become monogamous. Everything has to play the same. Basically every Japanese horror game for example has the same combat system and stealth systems of the last of us.

Resident Evil 4 remake? Nothing to do with the original. Basically Last of Us in a new skin.

Silent Hill 2 remake? Last of Us.

There's nothing new or exciting.
 
Too long. I don't have time or patience anymore to play a game for 60 hours+
 
What about gameplay?
Basically what @Stupid Clown said. The general trend being the same repetitive mechanics that become stale after awhile. Also I have a gripe with consumerist culture becoming more intertwined with gameplay. People used to get fired up when EA would implement ridiculous micro-transactions, now people don't even own their games and the outrage is getting quieter in that regard.

By the way I assume you mean the bell-curve of modern releases; gaming is the best it's ever been if you seek out high-quality games made by small but passionate studios (or indie games). It's just that triple A studios keep including the same repetitive mechanics and unmemorable stories because not taking risks = profit. (AAA studios are still capable of making quality releases, every now and then)

I should also note that the "woke outrage" gamer subculture is retarded too. They act like switching a black trans characters with sexy Japanese models would fix gaming. Just look at asmongold's community if you're wondering what I'm talking about.

Boring gameplay with too big of open world that feels like it was created with algorithms, horrible writing a lot of boss babes. Sometimes they will also include a shitload of MTX in SP games. Females are ugly and masculine most of the time. New titles getting easier and easier so your brainless consumer would play for at least few hours without dropping it. That's AAA gayming.
AA and indies are better in that regard but also can feel like they were copy pasted since most games are of roguelike/deckbuilder/metroidvania genre.
Gacha is another cancer that is now very prevalent and took asian market by the storm so some devs no longer need to care about making interesting games as those crappy pseudo-games will print them money anyway, they have very attractive characters (that are missing from AAA and AA games) but have the absolutely worst monetization and gameplay you can think off, there are barely anything to do in those games outside of playing story mode and then grinding events or whaling thousands of dollars on your anime waifus and their dupes.
There are always communities that create free mods for old games so you will always have something new to play just don't expect any major mods for UE4/5 slops. Also fuck any modder that paywalls their mods, already seen it with NFS MW (shader), Minecraft (shader+textures), MH Rise (lazy ports of outfits from other games), BeamNG (cars and more).

Can't they get sued for monetizing mods?

Kane and lynch 2 is so weird that its fun, One mission your tortured and naked killing chinese cops, Youll be entertained for hours, You also have to fight the entire chinese army as 2 balding middle aged men from USA
 
gaming should of been reserved for and should cater to weird people, as it was pre 2005, with normies following the footprints, praising the uniqueness of said non-normie games. Now literally everyone is an internet addict, content and gaming stinks

they're playing the wrong ones
 
What does that entail
Have you head the Scorcese quote about Marvel movies not being real movies, but instead more like a rollercoaster? It's similar to that. Mass appeal is given primacy over long-term enjoyability and short-term success is prioritized, instead of innovating gameplay or simply being able to tell a good story. Cult classics like Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines were commercial failures in spite of its amazing gameplay and unique storytelling, being "good" is not rewarding financially so there's no attempts from big developers at making something new. The closest to that is Baldur's Gate 3, and even then, ask any CRPG fan, just took a relatively niche genre and made it nice and presentable and had the overwhelming character progression system of games like Pathfinder simplified for a mass audience, in addition to pretty poor balancing. It's not a bad game, but this is the objective truth.
Another good example is Assassin's Creed going from a stealth game into a retarded hack 'n' slash because the latter is more appealing to mass audiences, which has led to an objective decline in quality because it's not even particularly good at being one.

In addition, the popularity of Marvel and their style of comedy has made many video game writers attempt to copy their snark and sarcasm into every single fucking game regardless of it fitting the mood. The most egregious example of this is Fallout, the tone shift from 1, 2, 3 and New Vegas to 4 is fucking insulting, and it's even worse in the dogshit series.
And I've wrote all this shit without even mentioning the identity politics that are shoved down everyone's throats in recent times. It's not the root of the issue, but it is a big part of it.
 
Lots of DEI hire devs and woke politics.

And cookie-cutter games.
 
Realistically, there’s so many games out there you don’t really need to care about current releases. Unless you’re normalscum who has friends to play the latest pvp coop slop with
