I more just want quality games. It doesn't even have to hardcore. He is talking about exactly what I've been though about how they've driven the cost of developing games up and there is a lack of risks being taken. Games with 60 hours of gameplay and nothing to do is not that fun to me. I like replayability and all of that but open world games in general are lacking something as far as being engaging. I like the older elder scrolls games but the newer stuff has become more and more streamlined and losing that part that made these series great in the first place.

I'll take a shorter game at half the price if it's good. Trying to sell to the masses and developers not even really doing that and getting lazy isn't good. As much as certain games sell based on name and branding there still are a lot of people out there not even playing games. I think the industry has been getting really stagnant too because of it's own faults.

Games were still selling but now it's starting to catch up to them too because people aren't even buyinig the big series as much anymore and the cost of making those games is through the roof. There's room now for other developers to step to the forefront.

If you understand anything about economics these major publishers are still hording a lot of the sales but people are losing interest too so there is room for a game like this to do well.
