‘Baldur’s Gate 3’ Prepared for 100k Concurrent Players, They’ve Gotten 700K

So, the whole middle management caste, that pushed for simplified, broader appeal consumer friendly games while naying any attempt to revive old games, is currently packing its cardboard boxes and lining up for the exit?

I dunno, go look at the top selling games of 2022. Largely old games/franchises, many over 20 years old. I'd argue video gaming is pretty stale because game companies play it safe and mostly recycle old games. Bless Elden Ring, one of the only big new games that wasn't a sequel last year.

Madden - 34 years old

Pokemon - 26 years old

FIFA - 29 years old

Mario Kart - 30 years old

Call of Duty 20 years old this year! (23 if you count back to Medal of Honor)

God of War - 17 years old

Gran Turismo - 26 years old
