Some odd 20 years ago we had flyers about fair trade and how 85% of the cost of a banana went to marketing, packaging and top tier exec bonuses.

Vidya is now on par with produce.
Does "marketing" also include "pay a shitload of money to get a Hollywood actor as a VA"?

Fuck ya man. It lacked implied rape and the women were not choked enough or naked enough for a vampire series, but that was a damn fun game.

Yeah, the old school shooters were trying to be games, new ones are trying to be either movies or, in the case of multiplayer shooters, microtransaction simulators. You can't compare games that are going for different things.
That sounds like something Pat the NES cuck would say. While there are trends, with a lot of retro old school stuff making a comeback, now we have more varienty and selection than even - especially when it comes to good old school FPS, a lot of them are being released in current year. We only remember the good stuff from the past, aside from the most embarrasing shit like Daikatana, most of the bad stuff gets forgotten - only few games were like Doom, Blood etc., rest was mostly meh or crap.

And don't even talk about cinematic shooters - I used to like modern Battlefield a lot, but these swedick cuckmasters keep adding more and more bullshit to the multiplayer that tries to cater to the most pathetic casual audience of losers who want to feel like they're playing a war movie. So like Angry SoyJoe. Fuck EA, DICE and BattlefieldVagina.

The ratio of bad to good games seems higher now though.

I mainly remember it for the first FPS were I noticed the dreaded "Can't carry more than 2 weapons at a time" trend, and pretty much the only PS2 game that actually crashed on me during play.

Still, it held my attention longer than Westernshit usually does.

I feel that comes from two key factors:
1) The usual nostalgia filter that applies to anything, in which you remember the good more than the bad in the past.
2) In the past, there was shelf space competition in stores, as even video game centered stores could only hold so many physical copies. This made a lot of the shovelware less noticeable because there was less room to put it and there'd only be so much in each store. Now with so many things digital, there's unlimited space for all of those shovelware games to be shown and thus their quantity seems higher.

Hoshigami: Ruining Blue Earth came out during the golden PS1 era, and it has to be the absolutely worst game I've ever played.
