article gives no explanation why they think the gaming industry has apparently peaked? every year is gaming's best year. it is still the best time to be a gamer, and games will continue to be fun and new and innovative next year. gaming has not peaked
There are a few factors that I think make this year a standout for quantity of great games released:
Crazy there is not more dev unions. Like, gang you don’t have to get cut loose as soon as you ship, you know that right? There doesn’t have to be an obscene prolonged crunch. You can have work life balance, all of this is achievable. Just come together.
Unless you’re one of the ~10k employees that have been laid off this year.
multiply that by 20 and you will have close to the numbers of tech layoffs.
And also a year of shit quality releases which is becoming more of a thing.
1993-1997 was the golden age of movies and games. What you call a good year we used to call a good month.
Games? Maybe. Movies? You’re seeing your past through rose colored glasses
Yeah man, like, the Matrix wasn't for two more years yet ;)
Maybe if or whenever Alan Wake 2 isn't only on Epic Game Store, or when we stop having games locked to a single store.
Steam exclusives and nobody bat an eye.
Not that any other game launcher/store can measure up to steam. But you lock yourself out of a lot of good games these days if you still avoid other launchers.
Just wondering, in which cases has Valve paid the developers millions of dollars to make the games Steam exclusive again?
The only steam 'exclusives' are the ones made by Valve themselves. While some developers prefer to only sell on Steam. See the difference? They CHOSE to only sell there. Not paid, not forced, and not bought out.
I'll just wait until the dev caves and puts it on Steam for half of the original price, I'll pirate it, or I'll literally never play it.
They can have my money when they put it into the library I'm already bought into, or they get none of it. I'd consider using two libraries of games, if any of them could compete.
Epic Games is garbage and low featured, Origin and Uplay/Ubisoft Connect are slow and clunky. Add this to the fact that I like my games to all be in the same list, and I've got very few reasons to encourage the companies running these bad launchers by paying them for the privilege.
Yes, it was indeed a good year for games. But 2024 is supposed to be not a worse one, too. Last year, I tried a few new games, and they were cool. But I can't already wait for the new GTA and Resident Evil ( I hope that there will be a new game). And I also tried casino games for the first time, and I really liked them. When I was looking for the one to try, I came across the page with no deposit bonus codes 2024 usa, and after reading all that info, I managed to choose the best site. I love the games and bonuses, and I really enjoy playing.
