How many 500 million dollar flops is it going to take before "AAA" devs realize that it's not worth trying to make videogames with hollywood movie budgets and 6+ year dev times?You'd think that seeing indie success story after indie success story would clue them in that you can still make money with a small budget, because people want GAMEPLAY, not fancy graphics and [current year] virtue signaling.
99% of AAA companies quit right before making the next Fortnite and getting their investors QUADRILLIONS of dollars.Never give up!
>>750225626They already know. They don't care. Do you think you somehow have more market and financial information than them?
They don't care about small success that nets them 10 million dollarsThey care about MASSIVE success that makes them infinite dollarsIt's not about making a good game you dumb fuck, it's about getting a franchise out there or something to perpetually leech off
>>750225626They keep being made and flopping because Blackrock is funding them. The "nice game, here's 6 gorillion to make it gay and lame" isn't a meme, it's reality.
>>750225626because companies worth tens of billions aren't interested in "indie success" money. that's literally pocket money for them.
>>750226003>we don't want to make 10-20 million dollars on a smaller game, we want to make massive 10-year dev time moviegames that won't turn any profit at allYeah that sounds about right, for out of touch 80 year old execs.
