cost of these AAA games got crazy after all, and the marketing is crazy too.

Blame the eternal pursuit of photorealism in games for the insanely ballooning costs, while consumers eat shit like PalWorld up for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

What AAA devs need to remember is they're making games. If they want to award chase, Hollywood is probably more affordable in the current climate.

That's actually a bit of the issue. Some indy developer can shit out some half finished palworld and gets legit praise. What they did with their budget and ressources is pretty big after all, yet we forget the 1000 misses the other small teams too.

But if MS does some similar low budget project, you can assume that everyone will call it half assed bs, and how can they dare to demand money for such low effort product with last gen graphics.
