I don't see Elden Ring devs complaining, maybe focus on gameplay and style more than graphics and MTX and hollywood actors?

MODERATORS
This is the part of the capitalist grift where they manufacture apathy and indifference towards the gutting of a (relatively) decent career, in this case videogame development, as a skilled highly paid profession in a way they hope permanently damages the perceived societal value of the career.
Umm 🤔, they have weekly free games. Epic games had effectively trained me to not pay for games.
The biggest thing I miss from yesteryear is all the low budget straight-to-handheld spinoffs. No clear place for those to exist now that dedicated handhelds are dead, and no room for quirky little side projects when publishers are putting all their resources into just a few AAAA megagames.

I liked it when they were Epic Megagames and made fun games about green rabbits, savage jungle women, and giant fighting robots
Anything out of his mouth you need to take with a giant grain of salt. But exclusive salt.
Maybe if they ran on Linux, people would buy it. Give it a shot there, Timbo
Yeah, people need to start reading past the headline.
He's not complaining, he's bragging.
His point is that people aren't buying Sony's big, expensive games, they're playing Fortnite.
Yea, did he mention all the other successful epic games? No. There aren't any. Or they're dying.
Gotta read between the lines.

There are no game manufacturers, just licenses to rent from subscription parasites. Sell me a product as an entire industry standard. NEVER ask me to trust you. NEVER try to steal from me with legalise. My terms of purchase are ownership of my purchase with no strings attached whatsoever. I will continue to play and mod open source games or play nothing at all, but I will never cross that line. I have a 12th gen i7 and Nvidia 16 GB GPU. I can absolutely play the AAA titles of today, but there are no game manufacturers, just worthless criminal feudalism and subscription extortion parasites.
