I'm the most hardcore gamer of our generation. For over the past 27 years I've spent on average at least 10 hours gaming daily while also skipping over 50% of my school since second grade.
I've played over 95% of all the Arcade, Nintento, SNES, PSX games. I did purchase Dreamcast too around 2000 but then got my hands on PC 2001 and never bought another console.
I've played many PC games from 2001-2011, all genres but mostly enjoyed MMORPG's. 2011 sadly DC Universe Online was the last new game that I opened my wallet for. After the next 7+ years I've only spent $20 on Marvel Heroes Online, but the game suddenly closed so I only used 25% of that in the store.
Single player games do not interest me as I've completed too many especially old school RPG's. Stories become generic, too familiar and the easy mode option these days, it feels meh. I find multiplayer games with worlds and player interaction most appealing, sadly despite having at least $15,000 in my bank over the last 7+ years $ nothing has really done the trick to open my wallet. So, I keep waiting patiently to vote in what I believe will be the future for gaming.
AAA multiplayer games as well as innovative, creative, progression type games with long term goals has been lacking. Too many kiddie games are released these days where all I see is repetitive game mechanics that I once played two decades ago only with better graphics now.
