Anyone else just getting to a point where, given the writing on the wall, they feel gaming sort of already peaked? Amazon gaming? Netflix gaming? Apple? Yeah. No thanks. None of those companies are game companies. All of their offerings are going to be excessively monetized. All of it is going to be about data gathering instead of engaging fun games. It's going to be AI driven. Yuck. Good thing I still have Final Fantasy X and Metal Gear Solid 3 to play.

People have been saying that gaming is dying and that its reached its peak for like... decades now. With the advent of game creation being more accessible and more available than ever (still), gaming isn't going to die.

The same thing was said about Microsoft when they released the Xbox as well when it was first announced
