I prefer the 2010's.
Digital distribution really took off.
Along with it, cheap & accessible dev tools, varying pricing models, and the eradication of middle-man publisher gate-keeping.
This opened the floodgates for indie/AA development across all platforms and created an explosion of both choice & diversity in the medium.
Quite frankly, I think this is where the absolute most interesting experiences are happening today, and I couldn't be happier for the creative freedom digital distribution has brought us.
