To me this stopped at the PS3. It was the last time anything significant happened. Still love it all, but every generation since I get less and less excited. At this point there isnt even anything else a system can offer thats worth wild.
I agree. Things still felt pretty fresh and exciting into the early-to-mid 2010s but by 2016 we were firmly on the road to enshittification
Have to agree, it’s been a law of diminishing returns since then.
Veeery true. Nothing has been exciting in tech since the mid 00s.
This word describes it perfectly :
adomania n. the sense that the future is arriving ahead of schedule, that all those years with fantastical names like ‘2025’ are bursting from their hypothetical cages into the arena of the present, furiously bucking the grip of your expectations while you lean and slip in your saddle, one hand reaching for reins, the other waving up high like a schoolkid who finally knows the answer to the question
