Um… The gaming industry did much, MUCH better before it was filled with activists.

Capitalists. The word you’re looking for is capitalists.

Capitalism broke gaming twice already. Once in the 80s.

There’s only one maybe two good video games not made by capitalists (Tetris and Disco Elysium).

You REALLY need to look up what happened with disco Elysium then come back and use it as an example.

That’s why it is “one or two”. The guys that made DE weren’t capitalists. The guys that published and sold DE were capitalists.

Regardless it’s an incredibly silly claim to suggest capitalism ruined video games when so few examples of good non-capitalist games exist
