Kids play kid’s games like Roblox or Fortnite. Also i feel kids don’t play single player games all that much.

Same for elder scrolls or gta. Kids today get 1, maybe 2 games of their favorite series before they have to do adult things. The only teams releasing on a quick schedule are the shit mobile games.

It’s also interesting they spend their money on cosmetics over buying games. Meanwhile, I’ve bought no cosmetics for f2p games I play like The Finals, and instead spend that money on buying single player and coop games.

Those games are what they can all play together across platforms for free, that is what matters as a kid when you get home and want to hop online with your buddies

I play those games for free with friends, but spend zero money on them preferring to spend that money on games that aren’t live service.
That’s the difference I’m noticing in money spent not on why people play them.
I see no added value in cosmetics and these games tend to give away cosmetics too and enough points to redeem battle pass for free, so you aren’t stuck on default outfit if you dont spend.

My parents wouldnt buy me games as a kid but they bought me consoles, I wouldve loved some decent free stuff, fortnite became a thing when I could start buying games myself

i mean with those games it feels like you get one every game third generation at this point.
elder scrolls 6 is going to become halflife 3 at this point.

HL3 problem is that they want it to be as groundbreaking as the previous titles. The problem with elder scrolls 6 is that even if it is released it’s probably going to be bad.
