Gamer Expectations vs Reality in AAA Industry [59]
PandTha Talks
03/18/24 • 73 min
Welcome back to PandTha Talks, your go-to channel for in-depth discussions on the gaming industry. Today, we're diving into even more helldivers 2 news showing this game has no thought of showing down just yet with it's more than consistent 400K players on a daily basis and the love shown by the fans and developers alike is just amazing to see. On top of that it seems to be showing signs of mending the breach between Xbox, PlayStation and PC fans alike, we hope to see this mend so that gaming can become a better place for all players alike.
In other news, we will be discussing Epic's CEO Tim Sweeny going on a pretty verbal rant against Valve and more specifically Gabe Newel attempting to persuade then to change their stance on the share they take from game sales, after failing at that going into a verbal tirade when he didn't get the reply he clearly wanted.
After this we moved onto Spider-Man The Great Web, an amazing looking co-op game that sadly will never come to fruition from the seems of things as this game was cancelled and it was only found out about as the trailer was leaked. As much as this is disappointing we still like to keep you all informed of the news around it just in case they change, as we all definitely would like to swing around NYC with friends.
Finally we will be discussing a thought raised by a journalist who seems to claim that gamers are expecting too much from game developers and that if we want to see stunning games we must wait many years, in our opinion she seems to be ignoring the many amazing indie games that seem to be showing up the AAA industry in recent times. AAA companies seem to be slowly dropping in scale but also in the care they show for the games, what are your thoughts?

Welcome back to PandTha Talks, your go-to channel for in-depth discussions on the gaming industry. Today, we're diving into Climbey a bit of an older VR game now but still standing strong in showing all you need to have a great game is a strong basic concept that works great. The enjoyment that comes from this game is unlike most "higher quality" VR games that have come out since then.
In other news, we will be discussing the Game Developer Conference which had a sour mood throughout even having a group screaming session for these current/ex employees in the gaming industry just going to show how bad things truly are within.,
After this we moved onto Retro gaming's revitalisation as more people seem to be jumping into it more than ever before. It's great to see such an amazing set of old platforms starting to come back into the forefront.
Finally we will be discussing Dragons Dogma 2's performance issues for PC and how the gaming community on that platform are reacting to the situation. It is currently causing issues with the steam deck too with the only real solution people are finding being to slaughter many of the NPC's.
