Dumbfuck!
Of course not. Technology always improves and with better technology there are better possibilities for better designed CRPGs.
I am really surprised that so many people voted yes. They must be either too old and should find another hobby because they are clearly disillusioned with gaming, or too young and want to appear edgy.
It's ok folks. CRPGs will continue to be made. Remember that us old relics who lived the golden 80s and 90s used to think that way as well. Remember that back in the day edgelords used to bash BG1 and Fallout 1 as well... And now they are considered classics. Hell, people bashed hard NWN, FF8-10, IWD, Planescape Torment literally didn't sell, Arcanum didn't sell, Gothic 1 and 2 were obscure etc.
Good games keep getting made, but many old timers bash them because they really have outgrown this hobby and won't admit it. How else could someone explain the huge amount of edgelords who bash Witcher 3? Those people would kill for such a game to have been released 20 years ago, but they won't admit it. 20 years from now, Witcher 3 will be considered the pinnacle of RPGs and codexers will be claiming that Witcher 7 is popamole...
This is the circle of life.
