has the gaming industry just given up? Why do they keep trying to make Overwatch Clone #9,999,991 work?
>>
just soulless bugman things

Boomer investors think they are cashcows, so they'll flood the market with slop hoping to make a quick buck and firing people when they dont

I'll be honest it does make zero sense that with how big Overwatch is, there has been one (1) successful clone of it in over a decade and that only happened because it uses Marvel characters. People keep trying to replicate it because it really should be possible but keeps eluding them.

>try to catch the hero shooter hypetrain
>take forever to make the game
>hype is gone and they're sitting on years of work and millions spent on it
The only options now are scrap the whole thing or try to make some money back

here comes the next set of iconic characters designed by people who think tattoos and hot sauce are a personality trait

For two reasons:

1.) These projects take years to reach completion. It’s hard to judge whether a market failure was due to an industry in flux, even with a failure as catastrophic as Concord. Pulling the plug on a project of the size of these titles is difficult, it’s like braking on a freeway, it takes time. A lot of these games are just being shat out hoping they find great success.
2.) Even at the best of times these games were not guaranteed success. Investors consider it a price to pay to bet millions ten times to strike gold one time out of the bunch to make billion. The only issue is the one-in-ten success they used to have is quickly reaching more like one-in-one hundred.
