Why are we defending publishers and letting them get away with using this term this way? The term should be earned for its content and quality. AAA should not mean “large studio”.
This whole “we are a AAA studio”, when they haven’t even made a game and got the business license the day before is fucking stupid as shit. Don’t use the terms the way they want it to be used.
I always thought AAA just meant they have a lot of money, like how cod games are AAA because of the budget but are still terrible, not as an indicator of quality
What are you talking about? The “AAA” classification has always been a measure of corporate involvement and budget, not of quality. If you think that being large in scale and having good production quality is what makes “AAA” games, you’re dead wrong.
What are you talking about…? What other industry uses it that way? Every other industry is quality, not size. Don’t let them get away with this shit.
Don’t defend them and let them get away with this shit.
If you continue to use this incorrect term, it will become a thing, that’s what they are hedging on, people like you letting this happen. AAA means quality, they aren’t putting out quality product so they are trying to change what the term means so they look good. Way to eat that shit right up.
The AAA games they used to put out were quality games at one point. So the term was correct, now that the quality has slid they are trying to get marketing to work on their side.
And people like you letting them get away with it is how it works.
I think this is where people usually say shill and boot licker in these exchanges.
Way to explain your point with anything of substance dude….
You’re the reason why marketing works so well. Say something flashy and people will find a way to defend it and support them. Even if it’s nothing to do with anything.
What other industry uses the term that way? Every other industry is quality. AAA to refer to size…. Right….
I know that’s how the term is used, it’s just fucking wrong when every other industry uses it differently……
Don’t let them get away with this shit. You are defending them. Notice how your link even says informal……… they are trying to make it a thing, when no other industry uses that way, and other people in the industry are calling it out.
You’re trying to defend this stupid shit.

And that’s how marketing wins, when everyone just rolls over and accepts it.
Nah, this is just part of a long list of shit the rest of the gaming industry is trying to reverse, stop letting this continue to happen and stop defending it.

It is a AAA game. It stopped being an indie when Take Two bought it from Squad.

rantyell at cloudsthey’re right though. it has nothing to do with “defending” anyone, that’s just what AAA means.
