His arguments regarding the bad future For AAA games, just for them PS5, he builds up as follows: “The problem with this model is that it is simply not sustainable. The most important triple-A games of the current generation have to be built between 80 and 150 million US dollars or more, before marketing. There are enormous upfront costs. “And he continues:”I don’t think in the next generation you can take these numbers and multiply them by two and think you can grow.

The criticized further Ex-Sony-Boss Shawn Layden the high demands that prevail in the gaming industry today. He thinks that with these standards it is not a good one future for the AAA games and their PS5-Fans can give the opposite of a functioning economy: “It is difficult for any adventure game to reach the 50-60 hour gameplay milestone as it will be much more expensive. And in the end, you can take some interesting creators and their stories out of the market if that’s the type of threshold they need to reach … We have to reevaluate that.” But not only Shawn Layden want a catastrophic future prevent.

I personally as an older player would return to the 12- to 15-hour game [AAA-]Welcome game. I would end more games first and second, the games would be just like a well-written book or [ein Drehbuch für] make a movie work, deliver more compelling content.“With this statement the former Sony-Boss open what alternatives there are to the current situation in the gaming industry.

So he writes PS5-Fan Kazrules on Redditthat it would be worthwhile, even larger than average Games to develop if there was a hungry market for it and if the studios would drop such good content that justifies the long production time. But that doesn’t always seem to be the case and so large sums of money are thrown out of the window: “I firmly believe that developers must do what is best for their specific game. If you can tell a great, concise story in less than twenty hours, it’s great. You shouldn’t be forced to make it longer or fill it with repetitive missions that disrupt the game.

And the PS6-Fan continues: “But if the developers want to spend half a decade creating an open world epic, there should be a market for that too. The game world is diverse and people have different preferences at the same time. Sometimes I want to play something light like Lost Legacy, and sometimes I really want to dive into something long like Red Dead Redemption 2. Both can coexist. However, I hate it when games are developed under 10 hours and are then charged $ 60. Resident Evil 3 is not acceptable for the full price.“Although this was only a comment on the opinion of the former Sony-Boss Shawn Layden about the future of the AAA games, but on Reddit this statement from Kazrules received more than ten times as many likes as all other comments on the subject. Whether the big ones too Game developer how Rockstar Games or Naughty Dog Shawn Laydens It remains to be seen whether forecast will pay attention, after all, Naughty Dogs Neil Druckmann recently spoke about the fact that he considers a sequel to The Last of Us 2 to be unlikely.
