I got paid by a client once in ETH, sold it immediately. It crashed immediately after
These days it’s still coasting around where I sold it for, no regrets
It’s kinda impossible to know, and im kinda deliberately try to not live in regret in that respect
Also I personally just hate gambling

I bought a BTC for a stupid reason I shouldn’t put into writing, in 2015.
I think the fallacy is thinking “wow I could’ve had 100k if I … Canada”, when it’s such a genuinely stupid & unpredictable market
Or so I tell myself

Agreed, I think they’re all jealous of Fortnite / epics unreal engines profit margins, generally
They’re all trying to push a live service when the market clearly doesn’t want it
I read ~$300 mil on concord by Sony, and it blew my mind
Unrelated: interesting video on steam

I think the evidence is that AAA studios, Ubisoft as a particular example, are struggling. Or EA with the recent COD
To be fair you could amount that to poor management, and I’m interested if there’s a study on wider AAA sales more broadly
I could be wrong

Which seems to be made up by microtransactions because the gaming consumer market is intolerant
Which I don’t think is a good thing either, but is an unfortunate reality

Which isn’t to say that labor shouldn’t be accounted for. I’m an animator, I feel
I think GTA could be worth more than $100, for example, but I don’t think it’s market competitive
Which specially I mean to say large dev teams aren’t competitive
Expedition 33 as a great, albeit overstated, example

“Few months” is exaggerated phrasing, my bad. & anecdotally I think you’re right
It’s a longer time frame for most if not the vast majority of AAA games. I can count the few >50% I’ve been eyeing
Wider point was about the competition undermining the initial $60 $ point, and why gamers won’t pay >

What reinforces gamers aversion to rising prices is that you can get similar or better Indy game for less
Yes labor is going up, reinforced by less crunch at AAA studios
The market for games doesn’t care, it’s over saturated and ultimate AAA games studios (other than Rockstar) aren’t competitive

GTA5 is the most profitable media item, ever
The reason most people won’t even spend $60 on a game is: why would you when you can buy it for like $10 in a few months on steam?
18-19k new games released on steam, and many have been profitable for less than $60

I get that argument maybe for like users of chatbots or who generate images for fun
From what I’ve read / seen survey wise, it seems that at least slightly more than half of consumers don’t like Gen AI in one product category / context or another
