From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it's gaming you can probably discuss it here!

To me it sounds more like the social media algorithms put you into the "gaming tech" corner so that's all you see. Indie gaming is huge and not at all about graphics. Look at the currently popular games on Steam and a ton of them are technologically very basic.
Also don't forget retro games.
Even new games can be run on midrange hardware if you don't crank up the settings.
People want big numbers and companies watch to sell the latest stuff. No one gives a platform for advocating low budgets, cheaper hardware and patient gaming.
Exactly. My feeling is more the opposite of what OP is saying. Gameplay and innovation is king. Just not in AAA games.
This is the answer. Lots of great stuff going in games right now.
