One issue with video games now is that there are so many and they all take so much time to play now. And since companies push out games so quickly there’s no point buying anything before they push out a patch to fix all the bugs in the initial release, might as well use that time to play some of the games I already have and then pick up what I want on sale.
I’ll happily pay full price for a short, creative indie game, but that’s already probably much cheaper than a big budget game anyways
Everything has to be live service now. Can’t even blame it solely on the companies themselves, a game will go a few months without updating and I’ll see people online calling it a dead game
Yeah my backlog is so big now that I could probably be happy without ever buying another game. Of course there are some I still will just from being a fan of the ip or if something really interesting comes out but yeah I’m certainly not rushing out the door to grab it.

Honestly what irritates me the most in gaming nowadays is the updates.
It’s so fucking annoying to come back to a multiplayer games and have to update several gigs before I can finally play.
The issue isn’t even that it takes long to download and install them, it’s the sheer amount of updates I get that bothers me.
