He lost all my support when he translated Larian CEO’s “we’re obligated by competition to try AI, but we’re never including it any of the work we do” into
“we’re pushing hard on using AI”
Hero shooters? Yeah. TF2, Overwatch, and APEX legends are all very popular. The problem is that there isn’t a lot of room for new games to come on the scene because of how hard these games are to make and balance, and how deeply invested people are in their games of choice. People still play TF2 despite the fact that it’s nearly 20 years old and hasn’t had major content updates in a long time. Overwatch is 10 years old and is still getting updates, and APEX legends is nearly as old.

You know a fad genre is well and truly dead when Forbes is reporting on it
Doesn’t Jason Schreier report through Forbes? He has a very good pulse on the industry by my account

Because he knew the later would get clicks.
Readers Digest “joke” section next
Was this ever a real genre beyond publishers forcing it?
