  • You realize that it’s much easier now to make a game than it was two decades ago (see other comment)? That digital platforms make it more accessible for buyers to get your game? That the overall trend in the industry has been to get a game out as fast as possible then try to patch it after the fact, when that wasn’t even an option two decades ago (internet existed, sure, but not everyone had good internet)? Sure, the quality of graphics may have gone up, but everything else has been left behind.

    Also, saying that people complaining about price is out-of-touch, is itself out-of-touch. Most people have even less purchasing power now than they did two decades ago and you want us to pay even more for a product inferior to what we would’ve gotten years ago?





  • you forget StackOverflow. I saw my coworker once copy-and-paste code… from the question… and not understand why it wasn’t working… I’m all for using StackOverflow to get help with weird problems but, most of the time, simply reading the docs and applying that knowledge to the problem you are trying to solve is enough. a forgotten art for sure…
