Seems to me that the most lucrative thing in gaming is still just making really good games.
Sure, there's Steam, but that's a fluke. The exception that proves the rule. Just get back to actual game making.
I mean, Steam is owned by Valve, and they make some pretty good games. Half-Life, Portal are some of the best series out there. I recently played HL Alyx and it was a banger.
Their latest game is garbage tho.
I wouldn't say garbage, I'd say rushed. The gameplay is debatable, as it's carbon copy of CS GO with sprinkles.
Call garbage as garbage. Rushed means no quality, means garbage.
So you say every game is either absolute garbage or a masterpiece? Life must be fun.
