Date: April 26th, 2025 9:51 PM Author: bossy boistinker Gamers have lost their ability to curate. Once, we sifted through the games like skilled craftsmen, knowing what was worth our time and what was not. Magazines like EGM, Game Informer—they guided us. The process was deliberate. We knew what to play, and we knew why. Every release had its moment, its reason for existing. We were the gatekeepers, the selectors. We were in control.
Now? It’s chaos. Titles flood in, algorithms peddle them like vending machines pushing their sugary, empty promises. Every game is stacked up, competing for our attention with no care for substance, no room for quality. There’s more content than we have hours to play, but none of it is sifted. The choice is overwhelming, paralyzing. We’ve lost the ability to discern. We’ve given up the curation that once defined us as players.
Where once there was a trusted hand—those magazines, those voices guiding us through the noise—now, we’re left adrift in a sea of endless recommendations, none of them truly ours. We don’t get the joy of discovery, of carefully picking a game that resonates, that fits the moment. Now we just scroll, mindlessly. Clicking titles we’ve forgotten we even wanted to play.
It’s a shame. We used to know how to choose. Now we’re just drowning in the excess. The art of curating has been lost, and with it, the soul of gaming. |

Date: April 26th, 2025 10:28 PM Author: Unholy vivacious haunted graveyard dog poop No one can make a game like Portal 2 anymore. You couldn't assemble the team you'd need to make it happen. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5716861&forum_id=2#48884085) |

Date: April 26th, 2025 10:41 PM Author: bossy boistinker Every single dev on the team of Portal 2 was a Gen X Engineer. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5716861&forum_id=2#48884107) |

Date: April 27th, 2025 10:13 AM Author: bossy boistinker Zelda BOTW is basically Portal imo. Nintendo's entire staff for the entire company is probably smaller than the number of people who work on a COD game.
There's a misconception that westerners do things to make money or are driven to maximize short-term profits. They actually are driven by psychosis, Engineering, and liberal arts. As long as they make like 10% EBIT, they're happy. The shareholders only care about how they did versus "Expectations." |

Date: June 14th, 2025 1:11 PM Author: cowgod (cowgod) There are a lot of non-sentient Scumbags who were kind of reared in the Xbox 360 western console zeitgeist. I can totally see them going for an AC binge in between COD "seasons." Btw I still have no idea what a Season is, or a Season Pass. They won't post much or be on youtube much, but they are legion and imo they might be the reason there's so many youtube videos about Ubisoft games. I have extreme Ubisoft Awareness. Japanese games never hit the algorithm. I had to seek out Zelda videos, like the ones where they Engineered insane vehicles in TotK.
