"AAA" is a byword for SHOVELWARE. There is a reason why a recent study found that most games played in the last year were six or more years old; and that reason is that today's games -- not unlike film and television -- are derivative, dumbed-down, unimaginative CRAP.

Most recently played:

• Left 4 Dead 2 (2009)
• Demon's Souls (2009)
• Vindictus (2010)
• Everybody's Tennis: Get a Grip (2010)
• Lost Planet 2 (2010)
• Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (2014)
• Dark Souls II (2014)
• Abyss Odyssey (2015)
• Mortal Kombat X (2015)
• State of Decay 2 (2018)
• Strange Brigade (2018)
• Risk of Rain 2 (2019)
• Zombie Army 4 (2020)
• Sniper Elite 5 (2022)
• Elden Ring (2022)...

In fact, user MODS are becoming more interesting than the new release games themselves are -- examples: Fallout 4: London, Dark Souls III: Archstones.
