I've even thought of stooping to trying out anime games. Why is gaming so dead, bros? Everything is just chasing the shadow of the original IPs of the 2000s (halo, cod, gears, far cry) minus the soul, community and meta that made them good. Modern gaming is a sterile, soulless, monetized no-funfest.
How much longer can i play the same games? Where is the hope?

Gaming has been getting worse for a decade at the very least. Mainly because of heavy, heavy monetisation. People are literally paying a 1/4 of the price of a full game for a fucking skin.

>>60983Well, maybe you're just depressed, OP. How's life going outside of video games? If you're really struggling, not having fun with things you used to like is quite common. I'd suggest playing shorter and easier video games to start off your return into it, with something like a spreadsheet to keep track of what you've beat, it's what I do and it motivates me to play, even if it's autistic.
I wish you the best.

>>60983Silly goomba, you should get a CRT screen or a CRT telly! Or a 4:3 screen at least.
Context: CRT has that funny "color bleed" effect that makes pixelart-ish images more smooth.
All while LCD screens tend to have dim "soulless" image. Been there, when I switched from a not-too-good 15
CRT screen to a 17 LCD
