Have "bro" gamers began to ruin gaming?
I have been noticing as of late that gamers are changing.The once proud nerds of old who love the story and majesty of the great classics that sprinkle gaming's past,seem to have moved aside in order to make way for the new "gamer elite". The new gamer of today seems to only care about online interaction and "Head shot ratio" pushing aside many great games so they may play the newest iteration of madden or call of duty.Many of these guys don't even play the single player story mode in these games!What a waste of 65 dollars! I mean i know the experience is personal for every player and that they feel they ARE getting their monies worth but come on....come on.. I miss the days when you could geek out with someone at the local Game stop, now when you go there all the assholes who made fun of you in school for the love of games are now hanging out at the one safe place there used to be from mongoloid alpha male types.And you may ask your self,"why do i give a shit?" because the gaming trends set forth by the new gamer and his casual elderly(thanks wii) gaming types are steering the direction of gaming to a point now where games of challenge are being retooled for the masses to be easier to digest.One of the biggest and most irritating examples of this are the resident evil series.While I love the new direction for its action, i miss the days where the game play style created an atmosphere just not present in the current lineup.Another horrible thing happening due to these gamer arch types is development in japan,most developers are backing out of the American gaming market because we seem content only buying fps and sports titles.I know it seems like a lot of whining over nothing but just wait,in the next few years you will see a steep decline in the shipping of eastern development.In closing i say this,nerds i know you are out there but we are slowly having our past time ripped away by trendiness.KEEP BUYING REAL GAMES!!!
