Im still waiting for them to make something TRULY original again, like Majestic.

But that takes creativity and hard work, something massive corporations and capitalism will shove down so far you forget they ever existed.

    It honestly feels like original and creative works are exclusively the domain of indie developers nowadays.

    Given how bloated AAA budgets have become, publishers seemingly don’t want to risk taking a chance on some more whacky ideas - at least until an indie dev proves it out first.
