This is the fundamental problem in the game industry. It became so profitable over the years it attracted the worst kind of people to lead creative endeavors.
Of course I‘m talking about scum from the finance world and big tech that we‘ve all grown to despise over the years. They don‘t know the consumer or the product. They‘re in it for the money and we can see that in mass layoffs, predatory monetization practices that make other entertainment industries blush and insanely bloated budgets for projects with no vision.
They‘re disgusting parasites. They‘re killing games and that‘s why I play so much more indie and retro games than AAA.
This is a fundamental problem with all industries. Management rarely has any idea what their industry is about and are just there to make numbers go up no matter what by pushing buttons/people.
