@Oregon_Pacifist@retro-gaiden.com @Broken_gamer@retro-gaiden.com if we talking about mainstream media then yeah i feel the same way. the only things that are really pulling me in is stuff i find online, indie shows and games, vaporwave and future funk, anime old or new or just old movies, shows and games i grew up with when we got better stuff by defualt back then. as ive said many times we are in a depression now and by that i dont mean with the enconmy but with every under the sun in terms of good stuff being made and what not

@AestheticFemboy@retro-gaiden.com @Oregon_Pacifist@retro-gaiden.com @Broken_gamer@retro-gaiden.com The easiest explanation is that creation is easier than ever and exposure is wider than ever, so the less enjoyable things are easier to find than they used to be. But the creation side is that the tools are so readily available that even Gen AI can make SOMETHING if you "vibe code" hard enough. It won't be good, but it'll exist. We had loads of awful stuff back in the day, too. But even that was better than what we get today, in my opinion. But I agree with this in that the indie scenes tend to be thriving.
