Any weird/controversial opinions? I’ll start. Before the remake, the best version of Resident Evil 4 was the Wii version. The Wiimote controls old Resi’s tank controls better than any other controller at the time. The PC version had a bunch of little bugs and detractors that the Wii version just doesn’t have.
I’ll extend this by saying that the Wiimote is actually pretty damn good for shooters, and particularly good for accessibility. Not having to cramp up my hands to press buttons is awesome for having arthritis. Aiming with the Wiimote and moving with the nunchuck just feel really natural, you barely have to move your fingers for anything.
I haven’t seen what you’re talking about, so I can’t even fathom what “death of gaming” could possibly mean. It’s dumb enough that music genres get declared “dead” just for being less popular than they used to be, and it seems even dumber to say it about a hobby that, as far as I understand, is more popular than its ever been.
Maybe I’m just following the wrong communities, but every time a new AAA game has a horrible launch I see the same discourse over and over of how gaming isn’t what it used to be, all games suck nowadays, etc etc.

One if the comments under the main post is about gaming having died a decade ago and now we are just in the age of decline.
And I have no desire to take that comment seriously.

Oh, that shit has been going on for decades and is always overblown. I never consider any of those kinds of comments to be in good faith.
