This is the attitude I really don't understand. "All new games are bad. Except ones that are derivative of old games." Y'all complain about a lack of innovation and then only play games like the one's from when you were a kid. It's a joke.
I said literally nothing in your post.

My criticism of modern games is targeted primarily at AAA games, not all games, and not even all AAA games.

I mentioned only four games, not every game I play, and the games I chose were specifically chosen as games that could have existed twenty years ago to make the point that there are modern games that might be seen as classics if they were older.

If you're going to quote me, reply to my post, not some delusional strawman that exists only in your head.

People who like getting their hands held through gameplay which is constantly being interrupted with tedium and lame story telling.

At least indie developers put out some good shit. I can't say it's better. But I suspect if games like Blasphemous, GG Aleste 3, Hotline Miami, and Fight'N Rage came out twenty years ago they'd be considered stone cold classics.

You can most heavy metal songs with lyrics about eating babies and killing clergymen. I'm pretty sure you can post a clip of a racist duck.

Nobody thinks she should look EXACTLY like her. Jill has changed slightly in the games too, but never her basic attributes.
This sounds like something somebody who thinks all black people look alike would say. Skin tone is hardly a basic attribute. There are exponentially more features that make somebody look how they do. I know the celebrities I think most resemble my mother and myself have very different skin tones than ourselves.

UNLESS the characters race is a central part of the storyline. Otherwise, just cast the person you see most for for the role.
Exactly. People who have a problem with such casting are placing inherent value on skin tone. Skin tone is only of consequence when prejudice has a role. If no such prejudice exists in the game skin tone is no more of a defining feature than eye color, nose bridge height, shoe size, etc.

I doubt there is an actress that looks exactly like the in game character. I can't think of a single reason why the skin shade is any more necessary to replicate than any number of other physical features that have no meaning in the game. If somebody thinks it's of more importance relative to such features, they're probably racist.

If you believe in smoking pot you may as well believe in a giant spaghetti monster in the sky.
