Good games are the ones without this problem; usually indie games are the good ones because greedy executives are not involved in them.

FreddiesLantern@leminal.space 2 weeks agoGaming has become such bullshit in this regard.
I mean it’s so rare nowadays to come across a game where you can tell: this is made by someone who genuinely wanted to make this game for the sake of making/playing it.
It’s always just another micro transaction storefront with graphics.
And adds aren’t any different, contrived bullshit.

There is nothing wrong with developers wanting to get paid for their labor.
You want , and deserve, to be paid for your labor. We don’t have to designate all “passion” industries to poverty.
Just stay away from AAA, AAAA gaming and you get solid deals made by people trying to make an honest living. It’s not that hard.

*mainstream gaming.
There’s still a world out there not bothered by this. I’m a big spender but AAA gaming lost me a while ago. On all systems I’ve got more games to play than I could ever have the time for.
