There’s a very good chance that my daughter, who was too young to play games when Skyrim was released, will be long into adulthood by the time TES 6 is released. Blows my mind.

Not my bag, but I reckon hent.ai would be a popular niche.

This is definitely part of it. When we had Game Pass, which would add 3 or 4 new games a week, the kids would spend their time trying them out to see if they liked them. Games that had been on the service for a while got ignored, as they weren’t presented as “new”.

That was one of the beauties of Game Pass to be honest, in that the kids would try out whatever was released that week, whether it was AAA or a small indie, and generally they preferred the novelties of the indies.

Now, with just one huge list of older games, they’ve got that paralysis.
