Interesting article, but games for me since the 90s ended have been huge letdowns. I started gaming in '86 on a Commodore and a bit before with an Atari 2600. The 90s were the peak of creativity. The 80s a bit limited technologically, though the arcades at their peak were a sight to behold. In the last 16 years, I only found a handful of games that really got me interested. Left 4 Dead and League of Legends (I did have TFT and tried DOTA but didn't play long enough to get hooked). But it seemed in the 90s, both PCs and consoles were putting out their best stuff. I still look at the old Sega Genesis games and early 90s PC titles as some of the best the industry ever put out. As a result, I just bought a new PC and decided to not even bother with a high end gaming machine. I'm using a Skull Canyon NUC, first time in 30 years I wasn't concerned with meeting current specs in the latest AAA games. We're going on two decades of rehashing 90s ideas and I'm done. I will be buying a Nintendo Switch though. The social gaming aspect of Mario Kart is still magic for me but there is no other entity out there with Nintendo's polish, charm or fun. I think it's an open secret that 3rd party publishers often run from Nintendo systems not due to API lock-in but because they simply cannot compete with Nintendo 1st party titles. Oh, and my username is actually a homage to the Buck Rogers Gold Box titles from the early 90s. I never got into the D&D stuff but played the heck out of the two Buck Rogers releases.
