Hopefully it will inspire the game industry to finally start releasing some new good triple A games again, instead of milking existing franchises with half baked content, subscriptions and micro payments..
We vote with our wallet,
and currently we're voting well with not buying into the crap they often pump out lately, and the statistics reflect that.
Not saying all new games are bad though, I'm thoroughly enjoying Horizon Forbidden West on PC lately.
But to me it does feel like the game industry has been dwindeling the past few years.
I assume due to venture capitalists who are not really passionate about creating good content, but more about turning a quick profit.
Remember, it’s not just good enough that the line goes up. The line must also go up at a faster rate than previous months at all times or you’re a failure.
I mean even games are kind of programming us to think about things that way too. Think of any tycoon-type game for instance.
