Modern Gaming: it's not THAT bad.
It's easy to be cynical about modern gaming if all you look at is the triple-A sector and the indie darling of the hour, because a lot is wrong in those spaces. But look more broadly, beyond the negativity and to where the true passion is, and you'll see that gaming as a creative medium is thriving.
