  With how strong the AA and Indy game studios are, I’m not worried. Good riddance to the AAA studios sucking up all the oxygen.

  It sucks to see, but what happens sometimes (not saying always) is the truly talented people who got laid off can band together to make another, smaller studio.

  I for one think it wouldn’t be the worst thing if the gaming industry got a small correction from its current direction. And don’t get me wrong, I’m not a “all AAA gaming sucks now” kind of person (I’m on a FF7 Rebirth replay and cannot wait for Revelation). But I think overall, we need games with slightly smaller scope from people who are paid better.

    And with more variety. With very few exceptions, it seems I’ve been playing the same few games over and over again for 30 years and besides graphics very few things evolved.

  Did it hurt to carve out the fevered flesh? Did it hurt to sever the gangrenous foot?

  There are some AAA studios that still do good and the AA and indie space is still doing great. It’s not like there won’t be any good games, I think it’ll be an improvement where AAA shit will partly disappear with some bad left but the few good certainly still here and AA and indie just continue as it does.

  Hard to imagine what the economy looks like at all during the next big recession
