  I feel like you’d have to control for the obvious asset flips or just random, I guess, spam games thrown out on a daily basis. I don’t think it’d move the needle that much tho

    Then you’d also need to remove already successful “evergreen” titles in that case which might land you back into the same. Not a lot of money for new games.

      True. Gaming landscape feels weird rn, looking at it from current standing. Tough sledding for aspiring devs. I’m also right about that age where nostalgia tends to make everything new look a bit less shiny, so I may be choosing not to see the best current offerings.

  And somehow that’s actually better odds than getting a good job after university 1.2m applicants for 17k graduates
