Over the years I have noticed a severely large drop in creativity in games. As more and more people want realism and high definition, less time is being put into the actual creativity of the game, and in doing so we start making the same games over and over.
The gaming industry has lots its inner child, the creativity and fun that we all grew up with. Now we take real life events and beat that horse raw like World War II games, always the same missions, why not do other places in history like WWI or stay with WWII but do missions like Dieppe and the Italian campaign - which held some of the most bloody battles of WWII. Why not play as the germans, its all just a skipping record.
What is the point of more power? what is the point of bigger discs? what is the point of higher definition? what is the point of it all if we cant create a unique and fun experience where we have not indulged before? This combination of bigge, faster, stronger has destroyed titles like Sonic, it used to be fun when it was 2D, now it is in 3D and it is terrible.
GRID is a good game, no matter how you put it, its a good game, this is where the third and final nail in the coffin is - The Gamer. Everyone wants more realism yet if we were to make it look good but feel like an arcade game, its bad, how is it bad? Arent arcades supposed to be fun?
I will let this end before I start going into anymore of a rant. Let me know what you think.
