Hello, I mostly play older games since i don't have a very good pc, and mostly rts and 4x with some rpgs in the mix. Warcraft 3, Alpha Centauri, Baldur's Gate 2 and Fallout 1 have had a permanent install in my pc since forever :p .
 Atm i'm mostly playing Dawn of War Dark Crusade, Darkest Dungeon and (very sporadically)Sins of a Solar Empire, besides TQ of course.

Yup, still playing Bad Company 2 because of that, DOOM 1995 occasionally, and Total Annihilation or Age of Mythology for LAN fun.

Of course old games are better, it's all about letting people know this and not about fun at all.
It's all about letting everyone know new games are too easy and saying you beat everything on hardmode and it was too easy.

It's all about letting people know they're gaming cancer for not beating new games on easy and not about fun at all.

those games where you try to make a strong toon only to get beat up by a grade schooler because his dad is rich? C:-)

I've never played those types of games, where the hell does everyone find them?
It's like the ones where the dlc is literally half the game or where the game is so easy you can beat it in a day on the hardest.
Y'know....the "scam games"...

@Deepblue

What are you smoking today?

It's not that modern games are too easy, it's lootboxes, DLC's (any DLC's), always online requirements, no splitscreen/co-op/offline sinngle-copy multiplayer, (H/B)ollywood level over the top drama scripts, constant ludicrously fast pacing, stats and achievement obsessions, that make them bad. We're actually missing the fun here.

Aren't free games.....well....free?
How are the devs supposed to get paid?

I don't really count free games.

I guess I'm too much of a cancer "gamer" to agree.
I probably don't deserve to play games right?

Either through ads in the game or via the micro transactions.

I dunno, I've just never played a game I've never had fun with.

I just look at a game, think "that looks like fun", buy it and have fun.
That's it.

The problems are not free games, at least not free games themselves. I'm not counting those games either.

The problem is triple A premium titles, sold at full price or above, using the same money making model as those free games, and the number of decent non-free non-scam titles declining because they can't compete with either those titles or free to play games.

I guess I've just never played any games where the microtransactions make you unbeatable.
Only played ESO and TF2 (where the microtransactions are purely cosmetic or don't give you an edge over other players and it's still purely about skill)

It's perfectly alright to monetize free games, of course. But when it comes to skewing balance and user enjoyment for the couple extra dollars is when it becomes a no-no. Newer AAA games are trying to implement this in paid games...
