There has to be a video game crash. There HAS to be.
- Digital-only route
- Digital content being removed from accounts
- $1000 consoles
- Subscription-focus
- 10 year game dev cycles
- layoffs
- studio closures
- even small indie game studios face closure
- AI slop-filled digital stores
Gaming got too big, too mainstream, too exploitable, executives got too greedy.
This hobby has become a hellish nightmare.
Surely we are at the bursting point?
Sony is currently charging $70 for God of War Ragnarok digitally. It is $32 at Wal-Mart. The game is 4 years old.
People will no longer have options after 2028 and will HAVE to go directly to Sony’s digital storefront and pay whatever PlayStation says.
@PlaysiLounge Man merkt wie ihr über die Jahre schön konditioniert worden seid. Nichts daran ist normal. Vor allem wenn in der gleichen Woche bekannt wurde, dass Sony hunderte Filme gelöscht hat.
