>>61442764>mass layoffs>a rapidly shrinking number of people with disposable income>a rapidly growing number of people buying groceries on credit, or just outright defaulting>AAA being 10+ years into ballooning game dev budgets for increasingly stale, mediocre output>games costing $80>years old consoles getting marked up>game pass getting marked up>PCs being prohibitively expensive to build (now featuring prohibitively expensive RAM)>Monster Hunter struggling to run at 60fps on a $2000 graphics cardWe've reached critical mass. The games suck, no one can afford them, the writing is on the wall, people are scrambling. I wouldn't be surprised if they start trying to finance game consoles with BNPL schemes.
