10 out of the 12 successful games had big established studios behind them. And only 5 of 19 of the failed ones had big studios behind them.
Having a winning game for a smaller studio is clearly INCREDIBLY hard historically.
*Credit to Embark for creating something fresh with The Finals and locking in a strong core audience.
But I am curious, is the next big comp fps game going to actually break the mold or will it be more of the same?
@X_ThA_KiNG@ARCRaidersNews All of that will cause you to play differently,
you can't do what val and cs-go do where you set up at the same spot every game waiting for enemies to walk in,
you can't do what battle royal games do where you drop at the same place pray to get the same weapons then you die
