Reminder that one of the reasons gaming is becoming more and more expensive and shittier is because of shareholders and investors.

no its because of "minimum viable product"
>>
Nah
Even private companies are shitting out an average game once per decade at best
>>
>>741933642
Then explain how can creatives and industry veterans who were said to be behind cult classics raise money for their independently made games and they ALL end up sucking dick? The entire appeal is that there is no company, no publisher, no shareholders and investors to intervene and ruin anything, and the games are still shit and can't even come close to the games that made people trust them?

No, it's because people have too much money and keep buying it anyways. Gamers deserve to be jewed

Because they still need some tard wrangling. Which is an entirely different group from shareholders, private equity and vulture capitalists that have destroyed games.

Another reason is because of the developers. Game devs are some of the most braindead incompetents in the world, and they are responsible for the lion's share of the baffling decisions that torpedo modern games.
Everytime investors give developers a long leash and minimal oversight, they produce absolute crap like Stormgate and Anthem. Game devs are like dogs and need to be kept on a short leash.

Antisemitism like this has no place on 4chan.
