      An example of what the masses who are only casual gamers at heart think is great. Call of Duty. Grand Theft Auto V. Overwatch. Fortnite.
       
      What I personally think is great from a hardcore, old school gamers standpoint. Yakuza Kiwami 2. Vanquish. Nex Machina. Most of the Broken Sword point and click games. Resogun.
       
      It amuses me that the masses who cling to PewDiePie and Mr Beast of YouTube fame are likely the same people who think Grand Theft Auto V is the best. It's highly polished, has been the highest selling game of the past decade, and is a technical achievement. But I feel it's highly, highly overrated. Sleeping Dogs, an open world game that has now fallen more into obscurity, puts most Grand Theft Auto games to shame. Yakuza on its own goes and puts Sleeping Dogs to shame.
       
      Time and time again I learn more and more that the most popular things in media are not necessarily the best. This especially applies to the music industry.
       
      The Grand Theft Auto Definitive Trilogy is widely known by the masses, but few people know that Yakuza actually exists as a franchise apart from them knowing one or two games from the series. There are only 31 thousand game owners for Yakuza Kiwami 2, which is a very low number for what I think is a pretty solid game. Granted, it's technically the third game in the series chronologically if we are to look at it timewise, and Sly Ripper decided to stop tracking a lot of accounts from this website which has resulted in significantly lower number counts. Trophies site and PSNProfiles aside, Steam numbers for Yakuza games are pathetically low compared to Grand Theft Auto which definitely points to Yakuza being more niche.
       
      In short, the mainstream in my opinion doesn't know what good games really are, whereas the more niche gamer such as us go out of their way to find new interesting games, even if they are pretty obscure. The subculture that was gaming has gone full blown mainstream, and it has become worse as a result.
