How Gaming Used to Be, in Contrast to the Modern Age, and What We Can Do About It

How Gaming Used to Be, in Contrast to the Modern Age, and What We Can Do About It Video games have been a big part of my life since the mid-1980s and I was fortunate to have grown up at a time when the industry, in my opinion, was going through a golden age in the ‘90s decade. I got to see many emerging games that went on to become all-time classics as they not only entertained gamers all over the world but laid the groundwork for genres that would become the staple of future games all the way to the present day.

However, with the rise of online digital distribution, questionable industry practices, and the general decline in what used to be common practice by gamers who often saw (and played) new games for themselves at their friend’s place before they bought a copy of the same, the hobby I loved took a turn for the worse. But not all hope is lost, because there's much that we can do to make things better by taking a few pages from the past.
