For decades, the gaming industry stoodctall as one of the main components of entertainment. However, today the physical gaming industry is slowly dying. In addition, the industry has experienced a drop in quality, massive layoffs, topped with Artificial Intelligence replacements which have all caused outcry among many communities within gaming spaces.

“One of my favorite games is Minecraft and I think the older games were a lot better in quality and more entertaining compared to the current games that are being released,” junior Owen Mumford said.

The physicality of the gaming industry continues to struggle when it comes to design, accessibility, and simplicity, while the actual industry skyrockets in revenue. Another issue involving the industry is the use of AI. Despite protests, it continues to play a major part in today’s world of gaming, which has changed gaming from what it used to be.

“Honestly, I do feel disappointed that the current gaming industry has been ignoring what people have been requesting in games and I think they could recover if the higher-ups in companies didn’t mess with any of he development of the games,” senior Ayden Debonnaire Lucas said.
