    Rose colored glasses. Go back and play one of those old games today. When you get bored, RDR2, Elden Ring, and Super Mario Odyssey will be waiting for you.

      I hate to break it to you but Mario Odyssey is 8 years old and RDR2 is 7 years old. Those definitely don’t qualify as “now” games on a timeline. Elden Ring gets a pass because of the DLC but it’s also 4 years old.

      That being said, there are plenty of good games that came out this year. Most of them aren’t AAA though.

        Don’t feel bad, I already knew they were several years old. But they definitely qualify as new in the context of the post we are discussing.
