  By “The Decline Of Gaming” he doesn’t mean that gaming is dying, it’s more popular than ever, he means that the quality of games is decreasing ( I said this because I saw comments that said that gaming isn’t dying)

  You know, there&apos;s an old saying my gramps used to tell me:<br><br>&quot;If it ain&apos;t broke, it&apos;s been 2 years and 3 $40 DLCs&quot;

  I think the developers thought process are like this: &quot;We will just release the game unfinished and then wait and see if it&apos;s popular enough for us to finish...&quot;

  The most heartbreaking part is the amount of beautiful art and talented design wasted on overall mediocrity...

  For some reason it feels that when company faces too many problems with the game they just give up and release early access to get as much money as possible by making fake trailers and then run away from their creation as far away as possible without a second thought to finish the game.

  Politics, greed, lack of passion for games, the unwillingness to take risks, lack of customer lash back for unfinished games releasing, and the cost of making a AAA game with modern graphics is hurting gaming.

  When you see that one of the selling points on a single-player game is &quot;No Microtransactions.&quot; You understand that gaming has just gone down.
