    It’s well known that video games today are disposable pieces of slop.

    Kicking off an article with such a provably incorrect and inflammatory statement is certainly a choice.

      Its the same with music and films. They were so much better in the past and here’s the examples. Not included in the examples are the thousands of songs and bands that didn’t stand the test of time.

      Survivorship/survival bias.

      And yeah, it’s the same old “they really knew how to make * in the past”. Houses, bridges, spoons, video games, whatever. It’s just that the well made ones survive, and the badly made ones don’t.

        Idk, there’s certain structures like the pyramids where you gotta give credit where credit is due.

        They really knew how to make some shit.
