Warning for gore and zombies.

A video showing how both the tech sector in general but more specifically the video game sector have no new ideas and try to repackage old ideas and get massive investment to sell 'innovated' ideas and products to people even though they're no better than the original ideas they're aping and in a lot of ways worse.

I'm so glad I grew up when I did and got to experience video games before they began injecting overt political messaging into games.

When they were a kid and therefore couldn't recognise political messaging due to not knowing what politics are.

What I'm saying is that literally 100% of "I miss the good old times when things weren't political" people are just longing to return to their childhood innocence, where they could just enjoy things thoughtlessly, but also lack the self awareness to admit that.
