Why do people pretend like a 2nd videogame crash is at all possible? The markets quite simply too big to fail. On a global scale. Face reality Any Forums. There isn't going to be some big 2nd videogame crash to save gaming.

I WANT TO STICK MY DICK IN TIRA

Video games are nonessential entertainment. When Schwab von kikelberg's new world order happens, the game market will be the first to go.

they dont understand basci economics or the videogam industry

just post something to get my cock hard, retard. what do you think this board is about?

only coomers think like that, not people

For me its 2nd to last

Yeah, it's just wishful thinking. You can't replicate the circumstances of the first crash, that's like calling fidget spinners no longer being relevant "a crash".
And it lasted all of 8 months and didn't affect PC or put anyone involved out of business.

The videogame crash is hyper exaggerated and sensationalized by Nintendo employees on Any Forums to make Nintendo look like jesus. Videogames in general started selling like hotcakes after the Atari crash, it wasn't just Nintendo. Nintendo didn't save gaming from death, they saved it from mediocrity.

It's a motivator. So is glory/popularity, all paid mods did was get basic functionality mods paywalled and prioritize shitty single-asset mods since the market can't sustain more ambitious projects the way that the nebulous desire to have people play your quest mod can.
It steered work, but that wasn't a positive for quality.

Its the Any Forums equivalent of happening fags, they will look at any story about something going wrong and assume that it means something big will happen either because they are to underage to see that shit like that is actually pretty common, or just so despeperate for something to happen they delude themselves

>Thousands of mods existed for free for decades
>SUDDENLY the goys need to start paying for it
no thanks

The AAA title market has kind of crashed already if you think about it.

I love hairy girls too.
Keep being based pubeforg

>Why do people pretend like a 2nd videogame crash is at all possible?
Far from it being possible it already happened. There's actually been four video game market crashes. The worst, by far, happened in 2008. And I really mean "by far". It was fucking enormous. Way bigger than the Atari crash. I don't think you know what a crash is. A crash is not the complete elimination of the market. It's just a sharp and sudden decline.

a man of culture, I see

I call that the covid dip. At least explaining the lack of meaningful titles in the last 2 years.
There has been another trend with AAA titles in that it's either half baked and rushed or the game takes 8-10 years for a sequel to release and there's still a rush job and cut corners visible.

>Happened in 2008
"No"

Yes. Go look up news for video game sales in 2009 and you'll see article after article after article talking about the massive decline in video game sales going on over the previous year. Lots and lots of development studios went out of business or got bought out. If you had been alive at the time, kid, you might know about this.

I don't think it's got anything to do with covid. AAA development has become too unwieldy. The games cost more than blockbuster films and employ hundreds if not thousands of people. It's not something that companies can maintain indefinitely, and as we've seen they don't. 5-10 year development cycles have become normalised and instead of publishers firing the devs between every project to cheap out on employee benefits the devs are quitting of their own volition and not coming back at all. The service games model was born to replace the AAA market specifically, and service game studios have become the new giants in the industry.
