    The fact that these games and other retro styled ones come out and are consistently the most hype and beloved titles that persist in memory long after release imo shows that this is where video games peaked. We won't be seeing brown cover shooters being made 30 years from now. We won't see indie devs making COD clones in the future, or battle royales or linear movies masquerading as games. This is what a video game is.
