I was born at the beginning of the 1983 video game crash before Nintendo revived the medium, and I suspect another crash is in our future. Late-stage capitalism isn't helping either, but here we are!

Most modern AAA games don't appeal to my old ass, but I remember games when they were made by people who like to play games. These are our modern indie studios and it brings joy to see them succeed.

Maybe a AAA crash cause they keep aiming for the cash grabs and battle pass/cosmetic slop. But I've been buying too many indie(ish?) games lately and I have not been disappointed by the majority of them.
