    To be fair Lethal Company and Plate Up are fantastic games made by single devs and priced very fairly. It’s not really the indie scene that’s the problem, that’s the holy grail right now. It’s these big releases and “triple A” games that are all disgusting cash grabs driven by marketing and how many twitch streamers they can pay to play their game for the “hype”.

      thought we were talking in general trends. also i am not saying the games i listed were bad, instead i was describing how people are consuming more games in a smaller window of time to what i have been use to

        Yeah fair enough, that’s definitely true. People tend to have a ‘main game’ that they hop off to play the new thing, burn out and then go back to their main.
