This might go better in the general YouTube section but I feel it discusses gaming in general and its current direction so well that I just have to share it here. This guys has some fantastic points.

Thanks for posting this. This guy did an excellent job explaining why the current video game industry sucks and what we need to do to fix it.

I've been doing my part by not buying any bullshit. I'm pretty much a retro gamer only at this point. Unfortunately, most gamers don't hesitate to bend over when they are asked, so things continue to get worse. Video games are my favorite thing in the world, and I can't play most modern games because I refuse to support bullshit that will harm video games. This really fucking sucks and it pisses me off. Everyone who buys into bullshit like DLC, DRM, online pass, etc. is destroying the game industry and ruining things for everyone. Knock it off already. Think for yourself and make the best decision for everyone, instead of being a destructive selfish moron.

My favorite game ever is Phantasy Star Online. The sequel is coming out this year. Will I be playing it? Fuck no! It's pay to win. The entire game was designed around getting players to spend as much real money as possible. That's what modern gaming is all about, spending money. I played the shit out of Diablo II, so what about Diablo III that's coming out in a few days? Nope! Pay to win of course. What the hell happened to this industry? I want to go back to the days when games were ownable, complete and about fun, not money. (>_<)
