I am guessing he is and never was a gamer, just a numbers guy. Disappointing.
What more can we say about EA, they aren't our friends, they take care of the investors.
Gamming was better when it was developers working out of their basements and garages.
ROBLOX is the social engineering for young kids, gets them ready for Loot boxes. I've really come to hate it and have seen the consequences.
Also, how does this guy feel about NFTS? is he on board?
I blame Sony for all this, making game mainstream.
What’s worse is that he’s probably buddy buddy to anyone who is anyone in the games industry. How can anyone have empathy towards a player if they’re all sitting at the same round table all the time? They’re all dining with one another, talking about future plans together, and commenting on the future.
I’m going to sound super negative, but this industry is all about innovating ways for other people to make money. They hide it behind this creativity and art talk, but the decisions being made are all about the Benjamin’s. We’ve already heard from Cliffy B, where he pointed out all these negative things before he exited. I don’t know about you, but his comments from years ago are all starting to shine through. Vote with your wallet, it’s a business, and a lot of the people making decisions are essentially clueless.
The people running the show have no soul, but they hire people with talent to do their bidding. If the veteran game designer gets burnt out, they’ll trap another fresh one to do the work.
I could be wrong and I’d like to be corrected by someone if I am.
Some people may still harbor and stick to their creative vision. I know, crazy right?
This is an amazing point in my opinion. It’s also why we probably see developers Re-releasing so many old games. Sure the new ones can be fun, but there can’t be cash copiers at every developer. They gotta go back and sell us what we liked about them in the first place.
