What are your predictions, in what year will new interesting AAA games begin to come out, the purpose of which is to please the player, not the publisher?

I'm talking about the mass character, because isolated cases of good games happen, a good example is "Life Is Strange True Colors", "Guardian of the galaxy", "RE village".

Indeed, in 2020, 2021 and 2022, 9 out of 10 AAA projects have:
1 - Technical problems.
2 - Weak gameplay/plot causing players to abandon the game/complain in a negative review.

From which negative reviews in Steam / on metacritic follow.
This applies to both new games and remasters, where they simply update the textures.

Obviously now they are just saving money on testers, saving development time and releasing a "beta version" to collect player feedback, player money and then update the game.

I get it, AAA games probably sell better on console, but still I didn't buy a 3080 just for it to run at 60% utilisation because the game optimisation is weird or something similar.


Why do you think that?

There are official statistics from CD Project Red, and most of the copies were sold on PC.
He had 1 000 000 online in steam, which means there was less online on consoles.

Elden Ring also had about 1 000 000 online, which means it was less on consoles.

There is also Dying Light 2, where you can watch popular streamers or let'splayers and see that they all play this game on the keyboard and mouse, that is, on the PC.

Horizon came out on consoles this year, which, as a result, few people have heard of, I generally only learned about it from voting for the game of the year xD

Gaming is dead from a quality and creative standpoint. Most games nowadays just shooters and empty boring open world. Indies try to fill the gap, there is only so much a short bugdet can do. Tired of walking simulators. Plus the internet killed it to. Games are rushed and drop unfinished. Devs get automatically lazy because they know the internet is there as backup to add another update, and another update followed by another update. Game is still janky. Take a look a Cyberjunk 2077! Still Broken, all spaghetti code. I miss the good old days, like 20 years ago. The golden age. I saw a great franchise falling apart, and more followed. Even Gran Turismo 7 is a mess, it was my last stronghold. So sad!


Indie games are the future.
Look at Stray and Cult of the Lamb.
They fight in nominations next to AAA projects.

And these two games have positive reviews rating higher than AAA projects.

Take a look at the next gen version of The Witcher 3.
It would seem that there was already an experience with poor optimization of the original 3rd part, but now a patch for textures is coming out and again lag bugs

OP. Seems like you specifically have an issue with modern games. Maybe you should step out of the hobby for a while since there's so little content tailored to your tastes.

Other people, who are not you, are having a blast with what's out there. Are there bad, crappy, mediocre games comuing out. Yeah. same as there ever was.

I'm sure that there are examples where AAA games have been more successful on PC rather than console, but I have my doubts whether that's the norm, historically or even currently.

Cyberpunk isn't exactly a great example because the best version of the game by far was on PC. It was so buggy on PS that it was removed from the store and the experience was similar on Xbox. This would have hindered console sales.

Also I wasn't aware that you could see total number of players on console, so not sure what you are comparing those figures to?

Nevertheless, I agree that PC gaming has a significant market share for AAA games. I hope upper management and shareholders for development studios realise this and focus on releasing a half decent product.

Sounds like a taste issue

RE Village? Come on

I have to disagree... I've never seen gaming as alive as it is now.

You need to walk off the most travelled path of the AAA titles and you'll find whatever game you need to scratch your gaming itch.

Every year people argue that gaming is dead and that there are issues with gaming. And also every year people argue that some of the best games ever came out.

I've been gaming for 35+ years, there hasn't been a gaming year that I couldn't find fun stuff to play. And that includes AAA, indie and everything inbetween. There is way too much good stuff to ever be able to play in a lifetime.

A lot of the big games that were supposed to come out this year got pushed to next year. Stalker 2, Suicide Squad, Starfield, Hogwarts Legacy, Nightingale, and Atomic Heart, just to name a few.

One reason is demand for bigger/better games means games are more difficult to make, cost more, and take longer. A spotlight was also cast on "crunch culture", where before it was just business as usual to expect developers to pull 16 hour days through weekends and holidays to get a game out on time. There's been a lot of pushback against that, and it's slowed development somewhat, though it's also made their lives better so I think it's worth it. There were also measures taken to slow the spread of Covid, however it is you feel about that. It absolutely had an effect on games in active development the past couple of years.

While 2022 was a bit slow for really big and exciting game releases, 2023 is shaping up to be a huge year for gaming.

Who is enjoying?
Go to the page of the game Calisto protocol and read reviews.
Or to the BF 2042 game page.
Or modern warfire 2.

No one knew about the technical state of cyberpunk before release.

CD Project Red posted on the network the statistics of pre-orders by platform, where the PC had a larger percentage.

Think logically.
If a larger percentage of sales on PC, and in the steam online 1 000 000, it is obvious that the console online is less than 1 000 000, because fewer copies are sold there.

It's a matter of experience here.

You have 1 200 games in 35 years.
Seriously?

I think you skip indie projects and only play popular games.

A person who has purchased 1 200 games in 35 years is easy to surprise.
Try it with someone who finished 300 games every year.

in 2021 and 2022 there were also postponed of games.

That didn't stop them from releasing a bad product.

Dying Light 2 DLC has been postponed for a few months.
Let's go to the Steam page of this DLC and read the reviews, find out if the audience is happy with this DLC or not?

Oh dear, You think my Steam account is the only place for games I have? I have a large amount of floppy discs, cd discs, dvd discs, consoles and other launchers. This Steam account is only just a (rather small) part of my gaming experience and collection and.

I am talking from a matter of experience. Gaming has been great for 35+ years now. There is way too much good stuff available, both old and new.

Yep, it's all a matter of perspective. OP is sitting on thousands of games on Steam alone, yet as he sits on his massive pile of treasure he bemoans that there's nothing good to play.

I did some math once and came to a startling realization. I was born in the mid 80s. If I were to live until the age of 90, even if I were to quit my job today and just focus on playing games 12 hours a day, every single day, I do not have enough hours left in my life to finish all the games I own right now. I'm not even talking about completionist. Just play until the end credits.

This was a sobering realization. I literally cannot play everything I want to play, even if I were to wholly dedicate my entire life to gaming.

I realized I can afford to be pickier when buying games. I don't need to get the latest games out. Sometimes it's better to go out and experience other things life has to offer. Gaming isn't going anywhere.

Maybe OP should go touch some grass.
