Personally I disagree.

I am having fun playing some excellent indies that is released this year. This is not possible 25 years ago.

So glad the indie scene exists and is thriving. Media outlets/youtubers give AAA way too much airtime.

Even if it's them complaining about bad AAA games, that's still time that could be shouting out truly creative games.

I been avoiding AAA like the plague lately. It's $70 for half the fucking game and you got to consult a spread sheet to make sure you don't get the wrong one. Your lucky if you put 10 hours in on it total.

I found an indy game today for $15 and binged it for 10 hours. Hoping for a slow week at work to play more.
