Not really hard to nail this period down. 1992-2009 (the release of Call of Duty Modern Warfare ushered in the age of progression and weapon unlocks in multiplayer games).
- kcb 5y agoAgreed. Watch a documentary on game dev during the period. It was very often just a bunch of gamers creating the game they wanted to play.
- grumbel 5y agoWhat makes this a bit hard to pin down is that around 2009 was also the (re)start of indie gaming. Xbox Summer of Arcade started in 2008, Humble Bundle and Steam Greenlight followed in the next few years and ever since we had an enormous mass of high quality indie games available. So even with AAA gaming starting to go downhill around 2009, gaming as a whole did actually quite well.
- Ekaros 5y agoI might even push it to 2006 and TES Oblivion. With both cosmetic and technically power DLC. Horse armour was pretty bad, but then some addons(not Shivering Isle) clearly were little content, but making game easier by giving free stuff...
