This generation has been underwhelming Discussion

I bought a Series X at launch, and can’t think of a single game that has impressed me this gen. I’m a big Halo fan, and Halo Infinite felt like a letdown. I’m a Forza fan, and Forza Motorsport felt like a massive disappointment. I was exited for Starfield, but was underwhelmed after playing it.

It just feels like we’ve had no heavy hitters this gen, even 3rd party AAA games have been average at best. I guess the only hope I have left is with Gears 6, but aside from that, Microsoft needs to get their act together and start releasing some new games. It feels like games are taking way too long to make these days, we used to get bangers every year in the 360 gen. Even the Xbox One had more compelling games than what we have now

AI is something that developers should've paid attention for and try to improve the most IMO, at least to make things appear more organic. But it seems like we are still miles away from a game that can utilize the available tech to show us a great AI experience.

Edit: I meant AI as NPCs, enemies, etc. Not corporate AI.

I said AI as in game AI, like NPCs behavior, not written by the actual shitty ass AI that have been forced into everything as of now.

If the written ai gets good tho... imagine a fully interactive city, where you can chat with every citizen and they can respond to you in a unique way.

Go look at the Skyrim mods where you can speak to the NPCs and an AI based on their lore accurately responds.
