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

This article is absolutely just AI blogspam. A lot of words that say absolutely nothing.
It's absolutely unsustainable, and it's destroying the entire industry (well, destroying everything else too, but here specifically for this discussion). Companies keep cranking out more incremental changes to their hardware that do not need them. Developers keep pushing out bigger and bigger and bigger games that cost more and more, chewing up and spitting out creative teams, burying players in predatory microtransactions and subscription fees that no one wants nor asked for. All so shareholders can make a few more bucks this quarter.
I just keep going back to that meme of "I want shorter games, with worse graphics, made by people who are paid more to work less, and I'm not kidding." And they would make a killing with that if they'd do it. But they won't because it doesn't sound greedy enough to investors.
