@@smrah8750 Of course, it's too early to tell, but since RDR2's release TakeTwo has officially become affiliated with BlackRock and its woke ESG score. Devs have stated they "don't want humor that punches down", and several key Rockstar members have left. I would love to be wrong, but there are red flags, and remember that no studio is infallible. I remember vividly of people treating CD Projekt Red as infallible and being willfully blind with hype prior to Cyberpunk 2077's release.

@@verifeli Eh, Definitely was an okay game, I didn’t like it very much, Very clunky camera controls and a fairly simple and forgettable story especially compared to previous AAA games like RDR2 which overall for me is much more enjoyable and has IMO much better characters that you actually feel genuinely attached too.

greed and wokeness ruined western AAA studios.

Tsl, it's not even a question about the graphics anymore. Recent AAA games lost its soul.

Old games still look fresh because of environment around it, i played ghost of Sparta and its graphics are damn cool, the building and water effects and walking style of characters feels like king, even though its psp games it has better floor tiles graphics back then, its always loook fresh when you play

Gaming has been downhill ever since we heard RTX. And why did you ignore watch dogs 2?

They would rather get investments from ESG (Sweet baby and others) and make the game woke AND shiit , than have any amount of love or passion for game. The games nowadays have no souls aside from privately owned studios like Larian or Japanese game devs like FromSoft. Ghost of Tsushima was great as well. So was God Of war 2018 (new one is also woke af)

Really? fromsoft? You know their games have a LOT of issues, right? From releasing literally unfinished games to rushing games and having poor design choices, fromsoft regularly have lack of technical polish in their games. Infact, modders have to do the work of removing these dumb limitations, similar to bethesda. All this generates artificial difficulty from tedium, frustration and confusion, and that ain't real difficulty. And the rest of the game's aspect like world, story, etc.? Its not the greatest either. This ''vague'' story is also told in other games like skyrim or CP2077. They literally have hidden plots and stories. This is speaking of their souls titles and ER, not gonna say on BB and sekiro. And god of war 1? Its combat was not satisfying, only focused on story and graphics. They took a game known for its combat and turned it into a story focused game. Why?

Agreed, but while being a bit woke, at least GoW Ragnarok is the least woke AAA recent game.

It's both hilarious and depressing how Ubisoft was used as an example twice just to show the massive dip in quality with their recent releases. I still can't believe that they once made great games that were pretty (dare I say) revolutionary for their time but now, they're only known for not innovating let alone doing the bare minimum in their games, the only thing they've tried revolutionizing was microtransactions lol

I like the background music choice. Sekiro has such a fantastic soundtrack. Same with the Batman Games. Thank you for this video.

I think we can all agree that Ubisoft hires the worst motion-capture actors around.

Going Indie does a great analysis and theory on this that makes sense. AAA games nowadays have too many investors that demand a game get released as closely to its intended release date to get their money back (if not more of what they invested) which is why they get released as it is and do so with the same expectation as regular software: example, they treat games like a new piece of software that Microsoft releases. In the software dev cycle you release a software in its early stages to end users and they’ll give feedback and you fix and send patches to what these users have issues with, simple right? Except you can’t use this software dev model with VIDEO GAMES. We as gamers want a FULLY FINISHED product on release, not to have it essentially unfinished come launch day. A year or two down the road it’s finally playable, but again that model just doesn’t work as the fan base would have most likely already left long before the patches even began.
