Totally. As I said, I don’t disparage well made games and enjoyed literally every title you listed except Persona (never played).
But like lets be real. AAA game industries have generally become bloated, increasingly prioritizing profit over product quality. Lots of exploitation of developers and gamers alike.
I’m not saying AAA can’t produce good games.
Nothing against Glen, Dead Space, or any genuinely well made game… but the AAA industry needs to die.
Edit: The number of you misinterpreting this as “AAA games bad” is too damn high.
A lot of people have speculated that.
According to their statement their code was written in Feb/2024 and predates “vibe coding”
I feel like they actually could make their own app with blackjack and hookers.

Nah. All you “AI slop” crybabies are severely underestimating where AI is going.
My ps5 primarily plays the same games I did on ps4.
We’re hitting a plateau where hardware isn’t improving the ux.
I fully expect within 10 years individuals will be able to use AI to build decent to good quality games in relatively little time.
In a similar vein I expect people will be able to generate their own media; specifying everything from the plot, actors, music, ip, etc.
These big companies replacing human talent with AI are just making themselves obsolete.
What’s the difference between ARM and x86 other than proprietary?
How is steam an ARM store? (Genuine question not a disagreement)
What specific brands/companies/developers do you see becoming relevant in this context within the next year?
Will this translate to more budget friendly pc-gaming options?
I am a former pc-gamer. Built my last PC in 2009. Even then it was a budget build (AMD gfx).
Didn’t Italy elect a far right neo-fascist government?
Hopefully gamers take notes.
That’s my biggest gripe. Games being released in an unfinished state. I’d rather them be honest, call it an early release and charge accordingly.
My second biggest gripe rides off the back of the first… how the people who make and play games are exploited.
Devs getting worked to death and thrown under the bus for executive decisions.
Gamers’ loyalty being taken advantage of including the declining value of Pre-orders.
