And funny at the same time! Trying to compete with AAA studios is so brave and so stupid if you ask me.

But keep trying guys one day you gonna succeed I'm sure

Let's start with a 10 years early access state combined with Kickstarter campaign funding

I swear until this day 30 years later people still enjoying games from big studios. Such as Red Dead, Half Life, AC 1, GTA, Crash Bandicoot, Rayman, and the list goes on!

How one single person could deliver a good game? And I'm not talking about visual boring books 📚
I'm talking about actual games! You know... When you PLAY instead of being a spectator! 🎮

Have fun everyone 👋🏻

this is really sad bait, there are many great games developed by a single person

also, tetris was developed by a single person

Hollow Knight: Silk Song Had nearly 600 000 players on launch.

With almost no marketing and a small team. CEOs from Triple A companies are most likely mad as hell because they have to throw up to 100+ millions on marketing.

They are actually not trying to compete with bigger budget games. They're merely trying to reach their target audience. The only ones competing are those answering to the "line must go up" people.

It's way better to do as AAAs do and sit on their bottoms waiting for a new mechanic or genre to pick up in indies to steal it and slap it on their games to try ride the popularity wave.

And that's why they have more creative control on their product. Creative control that allows them to create things AAAs later will cram into their franchises to reap that popularity.

That's why AAAs now have Battle Royale gamemodes.

Guys let's be realistic about this. We play those indie once, uninstall and forget about it forever like it never existed. Games such as Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Fallout, The Sims 4? Endless replayability with modding support. Games are actually complete. Not in early access state (which is just beta state btw)

We shouldn't pay the devs for developing their games. Period.

that reality might apply to you, but you certainly don't speak for everyone

I think some are trying to compete. Or rather, when an AAA company that "owns" a type of game drops the ball in some way, a bunch of devs will try to rush in and steal their lunch.

Cities Skylines took Sim City's Lunch. Now Sim City franchise seems to be Dead.

A couple of games were eying The Sims' Lunch as well:

A Rod Humble (Sims 3, Second Life) led game to be published by Paradox, Life By You, looked promising but ultimately fell through.

Inzoi is out but currently has mixed reviews, and the most promising competitor (imo) is Paralives recently got delayed.

They're just trying to fill a starved niche. Much like indie RTS games are starting to pop up.

Why giving away? If your game is complete you deserve payment 🤷🏻‍♂️
