but they’re putting out one game every generation
That wasn’t as big of a deal when it was a two year console cycle…
But I think for hardware and software, consoles keep wanting to hit metrics, because that’s what the parent company looks at.
The result is usually all flash and every game hitting the same points that were popular 5 years ago when development started
There’s no risks, so there’s no payoff. They have built in audiences so they still make money and keep getting paid.
Shit only changes when an I die game blows up and AAA try to integrate what made that game popular.
