I watched the series of the early 2000s and 2010s and compared them with the series closer to the 2020s and directly felt the difference, as if the authors really tried something before, I really cried when watching or was happy for the characters. The same with games, I played several games from the 2000s, and one sank into my heart, even after playing it a few years later, its plot still evokes vivid and pleasant memories, which has not yet happened with any game from the 2010s and even more so from the 2020s.
I’m not the only one, am I?
Part of it is that there’s aqlways low quality and high quality content being made, but time acts as a filter. The stuff you’ll still be able to find to watch from the past is more likely to be the higher quality things from that previous era.
I personally think there is still a slight difference in quality as well, but it’s easy to forget all the shit TV that doesn’t make it into history books or to any online services.
This happens with music all the time. People ignore all the shit that didn’t chart and pretend like everything from [insert time period here] was just the top of quality stuff we remember
