Ima give a serious response to a shit troll thread because Ima retard. Here we go.
The 1990s were the best years because the 3D boom happened. Many oldhands who cared about gameplay and fun were bringing their XP to 3D games. Many more were enthusiastic newbies who were reinventing the wheel (and the game engines) instead of using something pre-made and following a recipe for success.
But then the photorealistic graphics VR disease (normie-spread of course) started infecting games development. Gameplay became less important than graphics, and those retards have grown old but have yet to fucking die: case in point look at all the Carmageddon Max Damage reviewers who bitch about that game having outdated graphics! Not realizing that at the end of this road, all AAA games will look, feel and play exactly the same, like openworld photorealistic simulators with barely anything to distinguish one from the other.
Tl;dr: these years are shit because the commercial side of the art has outgrown the art itself, and nothing is original anymore.

The best year is now. You can download and play all the games from the past 20 years.
Imagine that. Instead of posting on a chan you could play videogames.

Guild Wars 1, Star Wars Galaxy (before it was patched for casuals), FOnline 2 and arguably EVE Online (at least in the early years). I heard one of the two superhero MMOs was actually quite good too though I never got into it. Granted most of these are dead or essentially dead but still.

The multiplayer communities aren't coming back. It's hard to find people to play with anymore. A lot of these games are hard to run on modern hardware. We've gotten older and our tastes have changed.

The perfect game for a console gamer is a third person shooter with vehicle sections.
The perfect game for a pc gamer is a first person shooter with an inventory system.
