I’m thinking about the AVGN and how Nintendo makes you pay to play shitty emulator games from like 50 years ago.

Especially for the very old games like atari lol

    New games are also quarter-eaters. If Space Invaders was made today it would be free but you would pay for random chance boxes to get the ship that is your favorite color.

      Right. Newer games also no longer have you "unlock" the prized content through play. You only get it as DLC.

      And "always online" kills a lot of the modding communities, which flourished during the early '00s game era.
