AAA game studios are facing a changing world. Costs to make "AAA" games are going up faster and faster. The game dev landscape has them competing with not just AAA companies, but also a variety of upstart organizations using UGC platforms, easily licensable engines, and frankly lower expectations. These non-"AAA" companies always existed to some degree, but now there are many many more of them. With things like AI being used to close the gap for content creation, you're left in a situation where you need more and more successful game launches to make back the money you spent, while entering an ever busier market. It's not like life is easy for indie devs either though. While we see and celebrate the big hits like Lethal Company, Battlebit, and etc., for every one of those there are thousands of failed attempts. Tack all that on to the general fiscal tightening, and you have an industry of people trying to find their feet. The 'stable' companies have been proven to have more wobbly then we expected. But the alternatives all have high risk too. The rewards are out there, but can we find them? And are the costs worth it? We talk about this and other things on our latest podcast.

Consider this a follow-up to what I shared not long ago about "not truly owning the games you buy." YouTube creator "Accursed Farms," or Ross, is starting an initiative to challenge ownership, or rather lack of ownership of games you buy. If it wasn't clear from that earlier post, I support Ross and his campaign and hope his efforts lead to a positive change in the industry. If you wanna learn more, here's his video as well as visit "stopkillinggames(DOT)com" (LinkedIn wouldn't let me attach the actual link because of the video...) #VideoGamePreservation #GameIndustry #VideoGames
