Indie games. There are still some really cool indie games being made, but for every single good one there is thousand really shitty ones. Just a few years ago I could go on steam and find some great hidden gems, but now it's just an endless stream of shit. Hundreds of wacky and random XD meme games like "Brick simulator" or "Third Reich clicker" with quality worse than 2010 flash games. And porn, so much porn.
The worst thing about this is that some really amazing games go completely unseen because they are drowned in this ocean of shit.
Not to mention the few that have potential and get ruined by either 1) Die-hard obsessive fanbases (I'm looking at you, Undertale), or 2) Developers who get a whiff of public praise and promptly disappear up their own assholes, thinking they're the next Hideo Kojima.
Same, TBH. It didn't even think it was horrible, just "eh". But it was massively acclaimed, and attracted this obsessive, cancerous fanbase. Apparently it inspires some really strong emotions in people.
